Did you quote the wrong post? It seemed like a fair comment to me.

Yes, both of those but I also hated the Leeds team of Billy Bremer and others. Vicious bullies who used every underhand trick possible. Man Yoo for me.

And it's by those commie bastards at the BBC

Germany used its Marshall Aid money to rebuild its industry. We spent ours trying to uphold our world status. http://www.bbc.co.uk/history/british/modern/marshall_01.shtml

I changed from Sky to Virgin last year. The overall cost is about the same as Sky + Plusnet but I now have three TiVo boxes each of which can record three programmes at a time. I can now watch footy in the conservatory or the bedroom whilst the head of the household is watching Coronation Street in the lounge. The Virgin package also includes ESPN sports. The broadband speed is also a lot faster.

Effectively, players paid for by taxpayer's money.

Yes, we saw that too. We were there Tuesday night -great show. All around us it was plastic pints, boxes of Belgian chocolates, bags of maltesers...

These house weren't demolished and are still being lived in. Any housing crisis is due to the huge rise in the population along with increased divorce and the expectation that the younger population have that they can move out of their parents' home and walk into accommodation.

Most of them are posting on it.

The term 'Spanish practices' could only be considered derogatory by someone who doesn't understand its meaning. It's like objecting to 'black sheep'. As it happened, they didn't protect the jobs because they eventually disappeared. Watch 'I'm all right, Jack' to see what British industry was like.

Next time he should toss them himself, it's safer.

No, it wasn't like that at all. Productivity was woeful. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spanish_practices

Cambridge would be good. I once did the halftime summary for the local hospital there when Kevin Keegan was still playing for S****horpe.

Sometimes all you want is a plate of egg and chips. The eggs must be runny enough that you can dunk your chips in them.

Isn't that a leveraged buyout?
