Well a poor choice of polemic as it's the online bit where polemic is the norm and a bit misjudged as I've consistently said I'm against the death penalty on here... ..the point is the unqestionable faith in its own right and rightousness and the conformity of thought and lack of questioning that makes me dislike the Guardian..the difference in tone, delivey and audience makes this a poor comparison..go and get something from a non 'liberal' broadsheet

I think Pompey are down, sorry Ratty....next seven games for the current 19th, 18th and 17th teams Hull Chelsea, Tottenham, Man Utd, Wolves, Man City, Blackburn, West Ham Bolton Arsenal, Sunderland, Arsenal, Burnley, Liverpool, Fulham, Man City West Ham Wolves, Villa, Portsmouth, Blackburn, Burnley, Birmingham, Hull That's why I'm vaguely optimistic.

I've got it for Christmas :)

Have you actually signed up or loaned it from Declan or in fact his son? These contracts are important....Sky could get you on an outrageous technicality 'cos they are greedy b*stards who are crap.......

wot my missus said

use streaky bacon, stick 'em in a hot oven for 15 mins - they'll cook in their own fat. Prep now so no hassle tomorrow.

...don't get me started

I'm gonna ask the missus - I'll be back

I don't really do shoot 'em games...I think it's and age thing but I do play the stratgy ones, like Total War series and Civilisation
