Chris Powell and me

edited April 2012 in General Charlton
Blackpool faced with changing tastes and intense competition from abroad, has associations with seagulls, fish and chips, piers, ice cream, candy-floss, cockles and the childish innocence of buckets, spades, sandcastles, and donkey rides, a panorama of seaside attractions that has seen better days - just like our team Charlton Athletic!
Blackpool south beach, furnished the weekend base for a memorable Deepdale visit, from Charlton lifers princessfiona, alexwright, henry Irvine, norm smith and myself; and brought home the fact that Chris Powell and me, have a strong purpose in common: we both want Charlton to be a Premiership team by May 2013.
But how will Chris Powell achieve this? One thing is for sure he will have to do better than we did in the south beach casino after the match.

  • Sounds like a proper firm that.
  • People seem to fear the word “me.” Why? Maybe the word “me” reminds us of baby talk, and that makes us nervous. You would never say “Me want a sandwich,” after all. That would be very embarrassing.

    But to many people, it sounds just as wrong to hear “The secret is just between you and I.” It’s just wrong.

    The official explanation is, “I” is a nominative pronoun and is used as a subject of a sentence or clause, while “me” is an objective pronoun and used as an object. Sound too technical? Then think of this:

    The trouble with “me” usually begins when speakers are stringing together two or more objects in a sentence. “I” is not an objective case word, but people try to plug it in as an object because it just sounds smarter.
  • forget grammar rules this is a football site.

    Boring, just think what you'd use at the start of the sentence I or Me. Is it me, or are Grammar fascists clearly the most awful drain to read? If someone asks a question on grammar then great if you can explain it, but language should be used as a tool about ideas. Some bloke a couple of centuries ago would have justified it a different way when they did use I with their King's. Get over it you can use a rule to justify anything, the English language should be ever evolving and naturally following mass movements in colloquial English.

    Grammar Fascists. Pah, barely a creative idea between them, and hateful of, and commas.

    Gary Mcsheffrey and a bit of love. And maybe a nick a few off Wednesday or United on the cheap, depending on who doesn't come up, players like Michael Doyle.
  • Yes Colin
    Gary Mcsheffrey on the left wing.
    We may be able to get him but he is with his hometown team.
