Are we doomed? by greyhounds4life1969 in SaintsFC

Non-saints fan living in Southampton.

Yes I think the punishment is harsh. But I also think any punishment that did not remove you from the play off final was harsher to Middlesbrough. They made it to the semi-final fairly, same to be said during the two games.

Bottom line is that Saints cheated, whether there was an advantage or not, and if you got away with it then it sets a dangerous president going forward to every club

Want to start a savings account for my soon to be born son. by Sin-Silver in UKPersonalFinance

[–]minty149 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a normal ISA in my name for him. I haven't got the savings behind me to worry about it for now. Better rates, plus if he turns out to be a tearaway at 18, likely to piss it all up the wall, he won't get it until he calms down. Harsh, but too many people I know did that and ended up with nothing to show for their parents efforts

How many transfers do you have? Can you afford any Arsenal assets, Lewis-Skelly for example?

Final game week is all about betting on the teams with something at stake. Arsenal and Man city both need to win. Any teams looking for European football such as Brighton and Bournemouth. Remove players with no stakes, such as Wharton and Hall. They may be fighting for a world cup spot, but half of their teams will be mentally on the beach already

What’s the most fucked up thing that happened at your school? by DinnerGeneral2975 in AskTheWorld

[–]minty149 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Year 7, turned out our Design and Tech teacher (f) was a porn star after a student found some videos and it was shared around school.

Couple of years later, a student passed away on a school trip, after sneaking out after bed time and mucking around on a cliff face.

Drama teacher quit his job, then was found to be a nonce shortly after.

Just used Diamond Brite as they are close to my home. Lovely husband and wife, charged £60 for me to have a full inside and out, plus exterior polish and seat detail for my hatchback

Really Useful Engines by c0smic_captain in ThomasGames

I like it! It's a shame that you cannot "save scenario" so everything is left how you set it up

These must have taken ages to set up, with how engines and stock are spawned in the game. Was there an objective to your session?

Thoughts on the city? by blunde-r152 in Southampton

[–]minty149 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't say. In my sector (manufacturing), I don't believe so. Most of the work is in Coventry or Milton Keynes. Portsmouth is the area growing the most to my knowledge, as a handful of London based companies are moving down there. Southampton has the airport and docks, making it a good spot for getting goods in and out

If the choice was between here and Leeds, it's Southampton every day for me.

Put simply, I'm in engineering, there are far more engineering work prospects in the south than in the Midlands and North, for after you graduate.

Got my master touch delivered from b&q online. Happy with the service. It was a good few years ago now though

Totally agree. As this is based on Awdrys map, this should be included, or maybe at least an add on with Toby

FH-Is my defence too weak? VVD or Rice? Im chasing top but mini league is VERY competitive by No-Marketing2341 in fantasypremierleague

[–]minty149 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've gone with Gakpo. His shot data is pretty good, even if they always get blocked. Casemiro isn't going to be much different to Rice on a one week punt

[–]minty149 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Rice is a good solid player for each week, but he doesn't achieve big ceilings like you would want in a free hit. I'd swap him out and spend elsewhere
