Whitey Grandad

'That team was good enough to win'? Good enough to lose 3-0 it seems to me.

Yeah, these poles are everywhere these days since they joined the European Union.

Is this Goatgirl we're talking about?

Aren't the hollow points used by sky marshals for the same reason?

But have you forgotten all about them? Of course you haven't, you're mentally scarred for life. On your deathbed you last words will be "Adidas" and somebody will make a famous film about you.

The only thing I'd swap is their attitude to the FA Cup.

You'd think so. If you are misguided enough to do it for a 'cause' then you'd want everybody to know about it.

Well that's just put his price up by 33%

It'll be a luge success.

Turned 180 degrees?

Perhaps he wanted to be able to see when he turned round to talk to his mate behind him?

At that age you won't want to.

Great, a win, three points and a clean sheet. It's just that I'd like to see a home win once in a while please. Please. Just one would be nice.

It all depends on whether you think we can have a decent shot at this one or if it might be better to prepare for the long term.

Yep, still angry. I thought I'd hidden it away in a cupboard but you just had to bring it out again...

He scarpered, effectively he resigned.

But I never believed a word of anything he said

Oi! Watchit you, unless you don't want to grow old...?

They'd be no good for anything, they're on the phone all the time

I suspected as much but just wanted to give you the chance to correct it.

Oops! Best to avoid weddings altogether...

It's human nature to try to see patterns in randomness, to make some sense out of disorder. Most people think of 'random' as occurring irregularly but evenly but that's not the case, sometimes there are little sequences of continuity. It's my theory that this is what hooks gamblers, they remember the little winning streaks but not the overall numbers.

Isn't that the median and not the average?

That was winter: this is spring.

Perhaps more importantly.... how many goals will be scored by Saints' players at this World Cup?
