ok this is weird and I haven't found a sticky that covers it ....
Does anyone know why my pacman gives me this output when I use it ..(i've set up and re-setup my repo's to try and fix it )

It looks like something is commented or uncommented incorrectly in the mirrorlist. Take a look at the offending lines.

I know ...
I've even used the arch pacman scripts to redo my mirrorlist ....
here's what the lines the errors refers to look like,
## Uzbekistan
#Server = ftp://mirrors.st.uz/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch
#Server = http://mirrors.st.uz/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch
Server = http://ftp.osuosl.org/pub/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch
Server = http://mirrors.rutgers.edu/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch
Server = http://mirror.ece.vt.edu/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch
Server = http://mirrors1.kernel.org/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch
Server = http://mirror.yellowfiber.net/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch
Server = http://mirror.mocker.org/archlinux/$repo/os/$arch

Read falconindy's post again, and if still confused, post your pacman.conf, not your mirrorlist.

No Idea ... but here we go .... thanks for your patience on this

# PGP signature checking
# NOTE: None of this will work without running `pacman-key --init` first.
# The compiled in default is equivalent to the following line. This requires
# you to locally sign and trust packager keys using `pacman-key` for them to be
# considered valid.
#SigLevel = Optional TrustedOnly
# If you wish to check signatures but avoid local sign and trust issues, use
# the following line. This will treat any key imported into pacman's keyring as
# trusted.
#SigLevel = Optional TrustAll
# For now, off by default unless you read the above.
SigLevel = Never
#
# REPOSITORIES
# - can be defined here or included from another file
# - pacman will search repositories in the order defined here
# - local/custom mirrors can be added here or in separate files
# - repositories listed first will take precedence when packages
# have identical names, regardless of version number
# - URLs will have $repo replaced by the name of the current repo
# - URLs will have $arch replaced by the name of the architecture
#
# Repository entries are of the format:
# [repo-name]
# Server = ServerName
# Include = IncludePath
#
# The header [repo-name] is crucial - it must be present and
# uncommented to enable the repo.
#
# The testing repositories are disabled by default. To enable, uncomment the
# repo name header and Include lines. You can add preferred servers immediately
# after the header, and they will be used before the default mirrors.

It is exactly as falconindy predicted. Comment the Include line under testing and community-testing.

@coacharnold: Could I please get you to use 'code' tags as defined here. This is the same link as the BBCode:on link below post text box.
#[testing]
#SigLevel = PackageRequired
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
[core]
I believe that falconindy is trying to convince you to comment out that Include line.
$DEITY karol and trilby you guys are fast

coacharnold, if you leave the "Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist" under #[testing], the include line is registered under [options] because the header [testing] is commented out, and not read.
If you do not use testing just delete completely or comment it all out like so;
#[testing]
#SigLevel = PackageRequired
#Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
[core]
#SigLevel = PackageRequired
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

#SigLevel = PackageOptional
