Simple way to navigate and post on Bigfooty.

Download or buy the app on your phone.

so you post via the app instead of the internet?

Yep

 

[MeisterBot]

Yep. Recently been using it myself. BigFooty doesn't have a mobile website version (IIRC), so it loads up everything as you would see on a desktop, which can be difficult to navigate and use. Tapatalk gets rid of all that and formats everything into simple text lists.

I can't stand Sabastian Vettle.
This prick really shits me.
He has now disregarded his team orders twice when our Aussie drivers were in better positions.

What has the team done about it?

Nothing again.
But it just goes to show that this bloke is not a team player.
When Ricco beats him fair and square it might change their mind though.
(Ricciardo is a seriously good driver)

It has been a great couple of weeks for me as a supporter,the Pies are traveling very nicely atm and the other team I follow though not as closely as I use to Crystal Palace have it a great stretch of form and will avoid relegation comfortably.

That is no mean feat when freshly promoted probably 65% get relegated in the 1st season so I am very happy and I think the Pies are building steadily .

Go to Settings -> Themes. Black or White

MG if you haven't already you should install Tapatalk. It was free IIRC. Easy to use and great if you don't have access to a computer

Yeah I changed my background! I can't remember why I did it but liked and just kept it like that. I think its better to read in during the day time, like in the sun.

The team just told Riccardo to pass him in the end , apparently Riccardo's a lot better with his tyres so will be interesting to see if they keep favouring Vettle in future race's.

Tapatalk is very handy and uses considerably less data than viewing the site through Safari on your smartphone. Well worth it.

 

[Magpie Girl]

Done!
Thanks everyone for the advice
I just have to work out how to use it now

Australia just spent 12.8 billion dollars on 58 new planes for our air force.

How on earth could this be money well spent? What are these 58 planes going to do?

I guess it will make it harder for New Zealand to invade us

So our airforce should have to use hand gliders Blaze? That's a cheaper option.......

We already have planes that do their job fine. What are these new planes even going to do.. protect our air space from who exactly?

How is this 12.8 billion spent going to improve our country?

Well in that case why didn't we just keep the planes we had in the 80s? No need for upgrades or anything.

If we still had planes from the 80s how would we be any worse off? And we would of had another 20-30 billion to spend on other things...

And they may turn out to be lemons. So many problems, some countries including America are considering pulling out fo buying and warned Australia to read the fine print as end cost could blow out.

Yes the 12.8 billion cost to buy them doesn't take into account the huge maintenance costs.

The reason given for buying them is "national defence"... I still don't know who do we need to defend our air from?

From the imaginary yellow peril perhaps? An Indonesian invasion? Papua New Guineans angry at us for dumping boat loads of refugees on their country? The possibilities are endless!

Hey guys, the 200 million spent on Arts grants every year is money much better spent though.

From reports I have read the F22 Raptor is cheaper and a much better fighter, its just that the US won't sell it to anyone other than Saudi Arabia.
We need to find more Oil
