  1. Enron? Plenty of US fracking companies have gone bust in the recent past due to lowering prices, leaving their pollution behind for others to pay for. With the upsurge in prices I'm sure they'll be some phoenix companies around to do the whole thing over again..
  2. Dryden had a certain honest crapness about him..
  3. He at least seems more aware than Hoedt as he acknowledges that is was a difficult game against Sheffield, and in some ways it was a useful introduction to English football as it gives him a measure of what is needed. Didn't one of the Saints fans on the night say it looked as if he was blowing a bit quite early on in the game? So now he knows what he has to do we can judge him again after a bit more time on the pitch. If he improves like Salisu has then we can all be a lot happier.
  4. My mum is with Green, so I popped down this morning and took readings and photographs as well, which I think is a good idea more generally. Still not sure what happens next but mum is too old to worry about it all so I need to wander off and do some research..
  5. True dat, but my near neighbours in the terrace offer me wood and kindling, so reckon I won't get complaints there and at least I'm not taking gas away from them. It helps to burn efficiently with seasoned wood. All mine is scrounged and processed myself and I work 2/3 years ahead. Trousers is obviously posh 'coz he actually buys wood! I'm with Octopus who are well financed. They are also good at their calculations for hedging and fixing futures so hope they'll be OK. All the companies do this based on their own consumers, which is why they will be objecting to taking on new customers for which they cannot haven't calculated and can only supply based on buying in expensive power from the wholesale market. I was on Octopus Agile and still have the app which shows me the half hour prices which are based on the wholesale market and even though they are capped at 33p they are frankly horrendous all through the 24 hours. We need the autumn gales as soon as possible! Edit: you've reminded me I need to get the sweep in. Last three years he's been round, had a look and told me it doesn't need sweeping..
  6. Katie Hopkins, Lawrence Fox, Tommy Robinson.. they certainly qualify. Not sure about the other two though..
  7. Don't worry, it was a purely academic query. :-) Fortunately I've got solar panels and a wood-burner: I'm ex-leccy board and have seen the shambles coming for years..
  8. How much for a fart?
  9. I think it's called 'reserving judgement'. For some reason you seem to be going off on one like Turkish when someone mentions LGBT! 😉
  10. Still down.. not paid their bills?
  11. So that Turkish et al. can do his usual strawman argument and be outraged and make a fuss..
  12. Well, a good lesson for Lyanco at any rate if he was faffing around. Plymouth winning..
  13. Odd? Probably based on your general posting history.
  14. I might keep that photograph for English teaching as the very definition of a smirk. Tamesaint and myself are so glad you included the transcripts again..
  15. Please inform yourself of what "marginal offside" means. It wasn't exactly on of the VAR toenail jobs we were all complaining about last year, was it?
  16. I've been entertaining since seeing a City goal on a dodgy thread and saying a very loud "shit" and then having to dash to see to my guest. Since saw that we drew and just got the chance to comment. Did Walker touch the ball for the disallowed penalty? Anyway, well done Saints for a cracking performance, and not conceding 5 goals like the previous 3 teams at City. To the pre-game commenters on here.. Phthtttphttt!!!
  17. I was just going to type something similar.. If I had to rely on this thread and not a dodgy stream...
  18. Yep, that was my thought. Salisu is far better with one-on-one situations like Antonio last week but maybe not so much with City's movement. On the other hand he does have pace, so I'm a bit surprised. Redmond's presence too. If we can draw their sting early on (famous last words..) we do at least have some pace on the bench.
  19. Let's hope so. Remember Che Adams broke his duck against MC..
  20. "chick game"? I always thought this was a parody account and now I know. If anyone has an "agenda" it's the 19th century throwback Lord Duckhunter.
  21. From what I've read there are plenty of cheap tickets available: £5 tickets on sale in the student's union type thing. But it's a big ground and people only have so much time and money. Plus there's plenty of wary older supporters there as well.
  22. FFS don't tell him that McBurnie cost Sheffield something like £20m (editor, please check!) and that he played in the top division last season. You'll give Lyanco a fit of the giggles and then he'll be useless..
  23. You mean they are still in the closet? 🙂 I find a limited and judicious use of the ignore function is beneficial..
  24. Hmm, interesting.. "While the first-team have gone 357 minutes without finding the back of the net, this fixture also finished goalless." No prizes for guessing who wrote it.
  25. Old arguments or old trolls.. some of them are really obsessed about certain subjects, as you can see here. 🙂
