I like it. Now just throw a second division team from not too far away into the mix, along with someone like Dundeee United, and it'll be almost the perfect preparation for our eight new signings.

i'm sure we'll have the customary 'big team' home friendly too, and the trip to billingham.

Heh knowt wrong with billingham

Glad we're playing York, always enjoy the trip down there

Any dates?

can a holland trip be claimed back on mps expenses does anyone know ?

this ian wright thing is boring. If its adg then his standards are slipping.

just jealous cos he has to pay for his own biscuits imho.

never voted in my life, never will. Coz they are all wankers

For those who have never done the Holland tour try to get there its a great couple of days touring with fellow poolies that you have never meet before.
Highly recommended.

Cracking midweek dates again for a pre-season tour.

I thank you MJ

I'll be having "some of that" as they say......best get me passport renewed for Gateshead though

Anyone who doesn’t vote has no right to judge government etc as if you cant be arsed to go and put a cross on a bit of paper you should be able to criticize the outcome.

which is why you will find that i dont discuss or judge the government. The only statement i made is they are all wankers. All mps are. Why would i vote for a wanker? Give me an everyday person who is in it for the people of this country and i will make the effort to vote for them. Until then im not wasting my time on them

So in the meantime you will just get the government you are given.

and what major difference will it make if the tories were in charge? None of them from what i read/hear give a shit. They promise the earth and never deliver. Politics is rubbish. However if you would like to show me a party who are ran by normal people who do give a shit then let me know.

Politics is rubbish, yet it involves every aspect of your life from taxes, health, education, defence etc lets all go back to drawing on the cave walls and fending for ourselves the world would be a better place

er are you on drugs or do you have an inability to actually read? At no point did i suggest or imply that we get rid of politics. I merely stated i have no interest in them because of the constant poo that flows from their mouth.

I concur, on the whole.
It puzzles me why totalitarian state-type scenarios ever need arise when it's so easy to get democratically elected and then do what you want anyway.

Fair enough don’t think I could do the same and sort of place my head in the sand to world and country events / matters. I was implying not that you stated to get rid of politics just that the fact you ignore the issues surrounding them and abstaining from the vote they may as well not be any politics in your eyes.

I am on drugs the little pink ones that make your wee go orange.

can i have some please?

I suggest you still haven't read his post, Mr Compo.

And I dont think you have read mine:

"I was implying not that he stated to get rid of politics just that the meer fact that he ignores the issues surrounding them, having no interest and abstaining from the vote they may as well not be any politics in his eyes."

I like that

i do really have opinions on politics, i just....... God this is hard to admit to.......i........i support labour

Exactly. Do you get it now, Compo?

Sorry, MJ.
Erm, I'd like to go to York and the Heed, but probably won't make Holland

lol yeah fiar enough, I think as long as I live there will be a Labour MP in our town.
