Not necessarily. Straight into the group stage if the slot reserved for the Champions League winners is not taken because that team qualifies by means of its league position. Or something. http://www.uefa.com/uefaeuropaleague/news/newsid=2137611.html I'm not a little swot, I've just been looking up the date of this year's final.

This whole site is a colossal waste of time.

That's its mathematical use. Its wider use means consisting of two parts. If you've been going wrong then there may be other reasons

Keegan, Channon, Shearer... We could be here all night.

You're right, you have a better chance of winning a cup than a league.

Everything's binary if you only think of it in black or white. Your figures are irrelevant. All that matters is the number of seats.

And we might actually win it. Yeah, as much chance as finishing 4th I suppose.

Meh

Confidante (assuming Lou is a lady)

Ah, now I see. It just goes to show that you can prove anything with statistics. You can't tell which way the slug crawled by looking at the trail of slime.

I think I'll call them paps from now on. As a mark or respect of course, I'm sure you'll understand.

What happened to the fish before they were fished? The seals must have been around then.

I was paraphrasing George W Bush. Sort of. It was a common parody over here at the time.

Worth a try, surely?

I must say I've not been all that impressed so far.

The wrong sort of Europe unfortunately.

And played in the 2010 World Cup final.

Do it on a Wednesday with an old git's Diamond Card and you'd have saved 10%

I've got a bus pass so that is frre to me. I should get a discount anyway because there's no way I could last all day on that.

£3 is quite expensive or were you talking about the bus?

FPTP does work but not in the way that its opponents would like. Instead of the minorities being represented in proportion at every election the system works somewhat stochastically in the sense that 5% of the time a party with 5% of the vote will have some influence, much like the way the LibDems have had their go over the last five years. As in horseracing a 100:1 bet will come up once in a long while. At local elections I cast my vote but I gave up for the Eueopean ones when I could no longer vote for a person.

Length of contract? Cork would have been out of contract this suummer so he could have gone for nothing.

Effectively it's an accusation of theft and not something that I would leave unchallenged.

Yeah, f'sure

There are special arrangements for MPs and ministers in these situations. It was ever thus so.
