  1. Wlodarcyck' date=' if he impresses, will sign at the end of the loan, whereas there is no chance of getting Maloney permanently. I'd go for the Pole.[/quote']

    I'm absolutely nae interested in getting Maloney. He's small, which is no use given the rest of our front line, and he's just missed an entire season thru injury. He'll score a couple of great free kicks i suppose, but we'll have fuck all chance of keeping him if he does well, whereas i fancy we'd have more of a chance at getting the Pole.

    I also worry about getting players that might have just looked good because of the company they were in. Plenty players in the past have done wonders for the old firm, but been shite elsewhere. Steven Thompson being a classic example....he was fucking woeful at Dundee Utd, and most of the Arabs i know were delighted he left.

    Far better IMO to get a physical current first-team player who can, as evidence would suggest, bang em in for fun.

    Sign Wlodarcyk.

    Maloney? Baloney!

  2. Three blokes working in a factory, Joe, Pete and Charlie are having a chat over some lunch.....

    Joe says, "hey lads, i've got a rather embarassing problem....i've got the most awful case of piles, they're giving me fucking agony". Amazingly, the other two guys are also fellow sufferers, and Joe suggests that he go to the doctor and let's the other two know how he gets on.

    The next day, Joe goes to the doctor and explains his problem. "No worries", says the doc...."just strip off and lean over against the bed and I'll be with you in a sec." Joe does as he's told and bends over. Meanwhile the doctor takes a big pot of vaseline out of his drawer, rubs the grease all over his head and then inserts his head up Joe's arse. He shakes it around for a bit, and then removes it.

    "There, that's you done Joe", says the Doc.

    "Fuck me doc, that's incredible....no pain or anything. Thanks a million"

    Next day, Joe reports back his findings to the other guys.....needless to say they are impressed and Pete is next to visit the doctors.

    As with Joe, Pete is asked to strip down and bend over.....the doctor greases his head again, and then inserts his head in Pete's arse...wiggles it around and then pulls it out.

    "Fucking bejezus"...says Pete. "The pain!! It's gone! Halle-fucking-lujah"!

    Pete, obviously delighted, returns to work and insists that Charlie visit the doctor.

    Charlie doesnt require a second invitation, and promptly gets himself down to the clinic. Again the doctor, asks Charlie to strip and bend over....while the doctor meticulously coats his head in vaseline.

    The doctor begins to insert his head inside Charlie's rectum when Charlie let's off an enormous fart.

    The angry doctor stood up and says to Charlie...."you know, it's people like you that make my job hell".

    I would prefer to sell complete

    Look around the 6K mark-ish

    Valued in excess of 10,000

    Not alot for alot of kit!![/quote']

    Would you consider selling either the 14" A custom crash or fast crash separately? If so, what condition are they in, and how much?

    Also, out of interest, what are you replacing this little lot with?

  4. You've obviously never been a victim of this' date=' they get put in a cell overnight and get a 60 fine payable at 2 per month for the rest of their life, guess where they get the 60...yes they come back to the same fucking place[/quote']

    what fucking difference does it make that I havent been a victim?

    so...if we do arrest them, they get a fine and reoffend to pay the fine. If they dont get arrested, they think they're immortal so they keep doing it.

    it's the court's job to ensure reoffending doesnt occur...not the police. The more arrests the police can make the better.

  5. ok fair point.

    But think about it this way' date=' criminals wear masks to cover their faces as its easy from cctv to find out who you are if you dont, and for the most part your right they prob dont wear gloves or anything and will leave behind prints but as is pointed out the police do not (yet) have everyones prints so its hard for them to be traced. Once these cards are introduced however is it not likely that again criminals WILL adapt and start to pay more attention to stuff like that, its not THAT hard to get fake finger prints or proper golves.

    All im trying to say is that criminals will get round this, just because the government has your prints or whatever doesnt mean people wont try harder to commit a crime.[/quote']

    Re. fingerprinting, not every criminal is as careful as u suggest. I would wager that a high percentage of burglaries are caused by druggies wanting their next fix. These fuckers arent the most rational thinkers, and if the police already had their fingerprints, there would definitely be more arrests IMO.

    Murderers and rapists arent all professional hitmen either. A central fingerprint database would be very useful i reckon..

  6. the guy who stands outside 'cinnamon' the indian restaurant? and he wears full indian clothing??

    he ALWAYS stares at me when im on the bus' date=' so i stare right back, and he's got the funniest little smile hehe.[/quote']

    i was at Cinnamon last week for a Meningitus UK fundraiser. There were five of us, it was a set menu, we had 2 bottles of wine, 6 beers (in total) and a couple of soft drinks. Total bill was 250!

    I know it was for charity, but fucking hell!!

  7. it wouldn't' date=' and i never contended that it would have, so please do not put non-existent sentiments in my mouth.

    ID cards, however, would not stop them either, so no score draw there.

    Let us hypothesise, however, that we have more police on our streets in the near future, patrolling round areas of high crime.

    Do you think it more or less likely that criminals will be (i) deterred and (ii) caught quicker than if everyone has to carry an expensive piece of plastic with lots of details on it?[/quote']

    Easy tiger....chill chill, just trying to have a discussion about this. What's the point in starting a thread if you're only intention is to lambast every poster who dares to challenge your opinion? It was a fair question, so I asked it.

    I wasnt putting any sentiments of any kind into your mouth. You're obviously right that generally speaking, more police = less crime. But we're talking about a special type of crime here.....if people are willing to blow themselves up, I'm a bit sceptical about whether they'll give a monkeys about how many police are patrolling the streets.

    I'm not necessarily an advocate of ID cards but I can see certain benefits (and not all of them related to terrorism - would be an ideal way of age enforcement IMO), but if the costs are as high as have been reported, then agreed, I'd prefer we didnt go down that route. The point has been made elsewhere, but I believe the "infringement of privacy" argument is rather facile given the amount of detail the govt knows about us already.

    If you accept the argument that there is a significant risk of terrorists arriving in the UK as illegal immigrants, then we need a means of identifying 'real' citizens from fake. Tightening border controls would clearly help, but there are countless thousands of them already in the country so this would be too little too late. Not everyone has a passport or a drivers license....so ID cards could be an option. It's certainly not a cure-all solution, and there would be lots of potential problems (eg.forgery). It's just another tool that the police can use, but even if it's gives us a fractionally higher chance of stopping events like we saw last week, then I think it would be a crap idea to idly dismiss it out-of-hand.

    The cynics amongst us might not agree, but I doubt even the govt would have mooted the idea without them seriously thinking it would help the police.

  8. The best bit is that' date=' according to Jack McConnell, you won't need an ID card for "devolved services" which means essentially that you don't need one to receive health treatment, but you will to pick up benefits/pension. And if the police stop you for a terrorism offence they can ask you for your ID card, but not for burglary, because terrorism is reserved to Westminster.

    Madness.

    As for stopping crime. It doesn't, more police would. I was told at the weekend that it would end problems with kids trying to buy a 15 cert. game/movie but not being able to prove they were 15.

    I think for the cost, you'd want something slightly more sophisticated than a glorified proof of age card.[/quote']

    Say for the sake of argument that you had your wish, and there had been a million police in London. Without them doing spot-searches on every man and his dog, how would that have caught the bombers?

  9. so why spend 15-20 billion for something we already have?

    Partly because not everybody has a passport, mortgage, bank account, credit card etc.....but everyone would be expected to have an ID card.

    Not saying that I'm necessarily an advocate of ID cards, but that's one reason for them.

  10. Apparently this is an IQ test given to job applicants in China:

    The following rules apply:

    Only 2 persons on the raft at a time

    The father can not stay with any of the daughters without their

    mother's presence

    The mother can not stay with any of the sons without their father's

    presence

    The thief (striped shirt) can not stay with any family member if the

    Policeman is not there

    Only the Father, the Mother and the Policeman know how to operate the raft

    To start click on the big blue circle on the right.

    To move the people click on them. To move the raft click on the pole

    on the opposite side of the river

  11. so can you tell that to the boy who said that London was "more secure" because of the higher numbers of Bobbies ? (I think that's what my post was refering to...dink).

    where in my post did i imply that London was secure? Didnt I just say it was an easy target? Kinda implies that it isnt so secure doesnt it?

  12. There are only 1' date='000 met police at Gleneagles. London has over 28,000 police so cant agree that London was a soft target. [/quote']
    and how big is gleneagles ? and how big is london ?

    ofcourse Gleneagles is a harder target.

    fucking tight as a nut up there.

    I love hearing all these expert opinions on everything' date=' it's amazing what a good bombing can make people say.

    I realised this morning, that when I changed a Euston, the lights went off and on, "the power surge", that was at 8.50 am (or thereabouts). That's when the first bomb when off is it not ?

    Simon mothboy was splashed by a car going through a puddle this morning, made him 15 mins late...and, if he was 15 mins earlier, he would have been at liverpool st. station. He's glad to be alive today.[/quote']

    Well done for taking this totally out of context.

    Of course London is an easier target than Gleneagles....well spotted Sherlock.

    London didnt just become an easy target because of the 1,000 Metropolitan police at G8 (there were still 28,000 police left in London ie. more than enough). The point is that it was always an easy target.

  13. So what the fuck is the point of them then?

    The point is security....if you've got one, you're a legal citizen, if you don't, you're not.

    It's this cynical nonsense about the government using them to infringe privacy that irritates me....the goverment has denied it, and IMO it just wont happen. The government know tonnes about us anyway, and we're all happily oblivious to this fact. Fail to see how an identity card is going to make things even more "big brother" than they are just now.

  14. why? Do they have the question "Are you a terrorist?" on them?

    ID cards are an infringement on our right to privacy.

    Bollocks.

    If you've got a credit card, bank account, mortgage, pension etc, then the government already knows everything about you that is worth knowing.

    This scaremongering shite about "infringement on privacy" gets on my tits....where's the evidence?

  15. all the terrorism experts and most of the police are in gleneagles making london much easier to target. i'm not sure it's necessarily a protest more an opportunity to get away with it.

    There are only 1,000 met police at Gleneagles. London has over 28,000 police so cant agree that London was a soft target.

  16. Why are so many people on here so cynical about...well everything.

    This is great news' date=' one of the worlds greatest events happening in our country. The area where the stadium is going to be built is an area of east London which definitely does need investment and revival. This really will benefit the whole country.

    In the end i wasn't that suprised London got it as all the talk over the last few days suggested that Paris' popularity was on the slide.

    Well I've got my plans for summer 2012. I can't wait.[/quote']

    Bravo, some sense at last.
