  1. Not surprising considering their empty season, empty ownership and lack of direction....... Man U fans are such poor losers!! Come on Glazer, cripple the club and therefore the fans!!!!
  2. I'm a lifelong Liverpool fan and posted the poll for the Liverpool v Chelsea semi final game. I'm literally counting down the hours, I'm so nervous but completely excited and can't wait. Could have got a ticket but didn't fancy the £400 that it was going to cost me along with the £400 plane ticket and ask Leeds about how English footy fans get on in Turkey. Personally, I prefer it in front of the tv in my local. I'm confident we can do it and can't tell you the joy I'd have if we did!!! Bring it to Anfield to place in our cabinet for good!! (For those that don't know, if you win the competition five times, you get to keep the cup permenantly) And then hopefully the UEFA meeting on 18th June will decide to give us a 5th spot!!! Fingers crossed!!
  3. I'm a beloved Liverpool FC supporter and can't wait for tonights game. Just wondered what everyone else was thinking about the game (if anything)!!
  4. I run a syndicate at work with 17 members, £2 per person per draw so 34 lines each Wed and Sat. Been running over a year and have invested £4.7k and returned £1.2k so about a quarter return. But we play for a big win, not to worry about small returns. Have had 77 lines of 3 balls and 6 lines of 4 balls, latest being last night which got us £77. Yes, odds are against us and maybe there are other ways of investing money but you never know whats round the corner, and somebody has got to win it so who knows, could be me one day! I do enjoy gambling contrary to alot of the posts here and have a very small dabble on general bets on footie and a couple of horses but only with money I can afford to lose. I also do sounder investments like premium bonds and not so sounder investments like shares!! But I earn good money so I can afford to flutter a little bit of it on something that may bring a win and I don't have any other vices like smoking, drugs or whatever so thats my enjoyment!! By the way, I run my syndicate online so easy to manage and replay the same numbers etc.
  5. Hadn't thought of the gear box oil, I'll check it out and see if it makes a difference!
  6. My IS200 Sport is on 51k miles. Over the past 2 or 3 months, I've noticed gear changing to become increasingly 'loose' and 'clunky' as opposed to when the car was younger. Is this the norm or is it an indication that its starting to show signs of age and could possibly be on its way out? I have no problem changing gears, only that it doesn't feel nice and tight, more inprecise than before and as I said above, clunky!
  7. MAKE/MODEL: Dunlop SP9000's MFS SIZE: 17in (215/45 Z17) MILEAGE: 20k THREAD LEFT: Fronts - about 3mm Rears - about 1.7mm on right, 1.5mm on left (about to replace) DRIVING STYLE: 70% Gentleman, 30% Licence Loser OTHER NOTES: Had longer life out of these than any others I've had but would still like more. Been leaving it as long as I can but as you can see, need doing urgently. Also going to get geometry done as well as not sure its spot on. About to get Goodyear F1 GD3's.
  8. I think they look great and was even thinking about one myself until I mentioned it to the wife some months ago and was told to find a new wife if I got it which reading between the lines, I don't think she wanted something that stands out so much. But with the right kit, right wheels, window tints and clean, think they are very nice!
  9. She already beat me to that last week, so i reckon a quiet night in for me. Although, I could be persuaded to don the glad rags and go on the pull ← Me to must be the time of year ← Sorry, messed up my quoting. Mean't to join the list and say me as well!!
  10. Watch the pictures and spot the gaff with files!! RX300 For Sale
  11. Appreciate that its 'news' but why the Sun and other papers give him the publicity, I never know. He thinks he looks cool but doesn't realise everyone just thinks he is a complete muppet!
  12. By the way, look at website ADSL4LESS.CO.UK. They do 512k link with static IP and no download limits for £14.99 and cheap migration. Don't know what the service is like though! They are apparently going to release a good value 1MB link shortly.
  13. I'm watching this with interest cos I'm also looking for 1mb connection. Only thing I can add at the moment is DON'T go near Tiscali. Been with them for a few years but last 12 months have been hell and it takes days, sometimes 2 weeks for their customer service people to come back to you. Link drops regularly and when its up, its much slower than it should!!
  14. Have a car kit with speaker in passenger footwell (but far up enough so you can't see it - only hear it), voice thing coming out by interior light/sunroof control and then the aerial is actually wired into the tax disc holder. Was well chuffed when the company turned up to fit it and said, do you want an aerial on your rear screen or a new tax disc holder that doubles as an aerial. Took me all of 0.00000001 of a second to answer!!
  15. I live in High Wycombe which most roads are a hill, some are very steep. I generally have traction control on but have to turn it off if in a side road and turning onto a road going up a hill cos it cuts in too early and then i find myself with no acceleration to continue my journey up the hill, much to the disgust of drivers that have already gathered speed up the hill only to have to slow down whilst I try to get my speed back up!!
  16. I don't think Portsmouth can have any hate for Harry..... he summed it up in the press conference, something like "I took them from fourth from bottom of the Division 1 (as it was known then), bought them into the Premiership and kept them in a comfortable position" Players move about, so should managers. And it appears obvious the Portsmouth chairman didn't agree with him so I'd move on if my manager and I didn't get on. Good luck to him. Just cos its a rival, so what, its a job!
  17. Spooky. I had my 50k service on Monday and ever since I've had the car back, I seem to have little grip in my front wheels. Go round a tight bend and can feel the car about to slip or when turning the wheel, seems incrediably easier to turn than before Monday. They did mention tread getting low on tyres but only on the rears. And besides, low tread normally means steering is heavier, not lighter!!
