    Prince in a Paupers Grave for sheer songwriting brilliance, but as a top 40 hit with odious, dark undertones After the Watershed pips it for me.

    Scandalous that Philip Schofield cut it short....

    P.I.A.P.G is a classic as is Sheriff Fatman. But I do like The Young Offenders Mum. In fact I love her.

    Don't want to divert the thread but you must have done some tuning up on your 9-3 coupe to get 300+bhp out of her?

    That's an insane amount of power for that car. Manual or Auto Tranny?

    I don't think I've done a great job of explaining myself.

    Being solely part of a cup squad doesn't actually satisfy most players (especially the kind we'd want).

    The appeal of an ambitious club is a mirror of its success and so we can't contemplate 15th or just sitting in the middle group. We potentially face a brick wall in terms of signing players due to us stating our future progress as a reason reason climbing aboard the bandwagon.

    Are we soon to be in a position where European football is a must just to stabilize put club size and not disappointm?

    Sorry if this makes less sense but I've had a few.

    Nothing wrong with pictures of women's bums Northy, the comments by some 'bums' on here offend my football sensibilities far more...:grin:

    What like him calling Swansea "The beautiful Swans" the other day?
    I found that offensive as well! ;)

    Totally agree SWORDS, It's either onwards and upwards or continue sideways.

    I know where you're coming from on this but MH is a strong enough character to put any egos in their place as Joey and SWP soon found out. Some of his signings will know they are bit-part players whereas the others will simply have to be on the top of their game to maintain their place in the team, which is how all PL teams operate these days, no-one has the right to think they are irreplaceable.

    As for the supporters, we've lived on scraps for so long we are going to enjoy the feast with some relish and I'm sure we've met disappointment so many times we won't be having any unrealistic expectations, after all, WE ARE QPR...

    The viggen version is 230 standard anyway Cols would be 230 as standard
    Taking them to 300 is not a biggy via abbotts racing in the uk as I have heard of a 400 bhp
    Best kept secret out there and the faces of the Audi are a picture

    You can pick up one don't go later than 2002 they slowly became vauxhall after that for 1500 quid
    Don't matter about miles engines are bullet proof then spend 2k on goodies and tuning you will have a car that looks normal but has a mid range speed of a super car
    40- 75 mph in 2 seconds
    Tip unrate the brakes to groove disks or you won't stop

    Depends to an extent on how the season goes. If we're flying high, there'll be a buzz about the club and players will see the competition for a place in the first team as a welcome challenge. If we're still struggling in the bottom 4 or 5, dissatisfaction may grow among players who aren't playing but believe if they did play, they'd make a difference

    Surely that's the whole point. There is no sideways, it's either up or down. Ask any successful businessman (or woman) and they will tell you sideways equals stagnation which can only lead on a downward path

    Not at all I have no problem with any viewpoint ... My point is the words
    All words when put together can be abusive following Terry's caseand now it's open season ...
    We ban the unbanable
    I have used those words and in no way are they intended to insult
    This is where we all need to step back to IMO
    You dirty Fishfinger x

    100% Agree with this. Competition for a starting place is far more useful that a player knowing no matter how he plays there is no one in the squad waiting to take his place. Its put to each and everyone of them to earn their spot. What a difference a year makes!

    Well said. Its time people awoke from their slumber.

    40-75mph in 2 seconds? Scoff. My 900CC, 45bhp pink Micra convertible has a class that no amount of speed can compensate for.

    Some very good points indeed....
    AFCON always nicks a few players. Plenty of minutes to go around for everyone

    Yeah from behind your keyboard, I know you wouldn't have the balls to ask that question to a black man's face. You can try telling him they're not meant to insult before he kicks your ****ing head in. I gave you the benefit of the doubt after that crass "Howzat" comment DT, but now I've got you sussed.
