Not made of polyester though. The thing was shredded and melted by the end!

Shorthand for 'That is' ......

Their gates are going down faster than they are cutting costs.

I thought this comment after the article was just as interesting "There's a Czech footballer with the surname "Sourek", which actually means 'scrotum'. The Czechs have a way with names. In the mid-70s the regular starting lineup for Slavia Prague included three players - Cipro, Grospic and Jebavy - whose names could be roughly translated as Knobhead (in Czech Silesian dialect), Big C--t, and Fu ckable"

Two old farts discussing the good ole days

My mum bought our place in Weston from the council in the 1970s. Last time I saw it it had fake wagon wheels screwed to the front walls, the tree in the garden chopped down and a caravan parked at the side of house. Im pretty sure it hasnt been bought by a middle class landlord

Third best supported in championship with c25,300 average after WHU (28,900) and Derby (26,160). Our support is okay I reckon given the recession. Derby is amazing given its a relatively small city with not a massive catchment area and mid table position.

Health & Safety. Corporate hospitality clients need to submit the identities of their guests so that in the case of fire they can trampled in the exits by name. The plebs in the stadium who bought tickets anonymously arent important and can be easily bracketed as "20,000 dead but nobody important".

Probably a crunching tackle from Sharp or Barnard

They must do it solely for the lulz, kind of a flashmob thing.

Can you not see the totallylookslike.com pix are funny but yours wasnt? That they havent used pictures of a girl with a terrible disease, car crash victims or miscarried babies. Big difference.

There have always mid 20s, egos too big, tvvats around - but Im pretty sure these weird disconnected from reality, uber full of themsleves and yet devoid of any real ability streak of pis puffballs are solely a creation of the 21st century. Big Brother and the X Factor have got a **** of a lot to answer for.

Havent seen him since he was plain Mitchell.

Probably just a typo. When they said 'for Health & Safety reasons', they meant 'for follow up bugging you with marketing reasons'.

What about one of the bigger engined Peugeot 407s? - 2.7 diesel or 3.0 petrol V6s I think. You will get get a high spec low mileage car for less than £10,000. The 508 is a really beautiful car to drive but has only been out a year and too expensive currently.

You could make it more authentic by having a strike during the chorus and throwing dead sheep onto the pitch.

I hate it when they're chewy and full of gristle.

Sicily is good. Lots to see and do (getting the cable car up Mount Etna is well worth it). Stayed in Taormina. Historic centre, pretty, good beach, good food, reasonable prices. Dont know any specific all inclusive resorts but there be some. Edit. If you want something exotic Sri Lanka has got it all. Amazing beaches, wildlife, temples, hill stations, Buddha's tooth. Long schlep to get there, but dirt cheap once you do.

Whats really weird is that around 25 people have voted on the poll since the thread was resurrected, nearly all for Morgan and changing the original result. Makes you wonder if they realise Wotton doesnt play for us anymore.

If people are worried about Doncaster, Portsmouth and Coventry at home they are going to be doubly incontinent next season with Man U and City away.

Disagree. People were trashing a 19 year old, one playing in the French national side, as being a useless waste of space. If they had said it was totally ridiculous to expect a promising but very young and inexperienced player to to make a championship side tick in the centre of the park it would have been different and they would have been right.

I do like us being on top and playing expansive football definitely. I also know that no matter how smart Adkins is in the transfer market or how good the academy is we will never be able to compete with the financial muscle of Man City and Chelsea and Man U. Top 10 and playing for a UEFA cup place would be good. But if its a choice of dire to watch desperate backs to wall defending for most of the season and a bottom 10 finish with regular panic to avoid relegation, Im not sure thats an improvement over what we have

Theres clearly a problem with people buying tickets and then claiming they've got lost in the post, getting duplicates and selling /giving their mates the spares. Just like there were scrotes getting season tickets on instalments and then cancelling the direct debit. Some 'fans' are just looking to screw the club over. Blame them for the restrictive arrangements.

Because it holds a mirror up to the present - especially the slating of established good players.

Terrible accident. Those tunnels are often killers. I've driven through three trans alpine, none of them are pleasant but one in particular was really scary. The lighting was odd - you couldnt see well and it was kind of hypnotic. Worst 12 driving miles of my life.
