Maybe their database was wrong. Imagine that eh?

Yeah, this lack of two staggered payments of £250 is going to ruin so many lives.

Why do you say that? It is completely untrue of 99.9% of businesses which either cover their own costs (ie make a profit - fancy that!) or use debt. The simple fact is that, absent a very rich sugar daddy, clubs with a nineteenth centruy infrastructure and minimal fan base can not afford, generally, to be genuinely competitive in the top division any more for any sustained period. This is why it is good for everyone that you have been relegated.

Exactamundo. 100% spot on.

I agree completely with regards to those who have called for some sort of means-based test. When you hear the pundits saying the Pl/FA should have to check that owners have the money it's usually someone like Claridge, "Spoony" or Bright who, whilst being able to talk a bit about football, lack the basic intelligence to follow that idea through and see how stupid and shortsighted it is.

You can have a good laugh with them if you get talking though. Some of the stuff they come out with...

All the ****s in that ****ing Halifax spoof radio advert. So punchable

Yeah, what a bunch of fecking morons. Oh look, the same gang of girls in a bar. Oh look, the same gang of girls in a different bar. Oh look, the same gang of girls in someone's lounge before going to a bar. Oh look, the same gang of girls in the street between bars. **** off, just **** off.

I may do a tennis thread later.

have been mentioned a few times on the bees thread. I am not one of those oddballs who will pick up and cuddle spiders that they find in their house, however I do find these creatures strangely compelling even if some of them are horrendous to look at. It's a sort of macabre fascination I guess. A voyeurism of sorts. It's interesting.

That's a shame because I am informed that a badger will clear out a bees' nest.

Yes, both!

Kids, stay off the grog.

Is he a miserable old git who moans about everything? As for Beckham, if I had to be bummed by a man I would chose him to do it. I think that says it all.

He is right about mico generation though. It does make financial sense under the new regime.

Stu are you an MSC accredited installer? Crikey, I was hoping there would be some sort of quality control on that.

Sauna.

Good point. All STs should be at least £1k to keep out the riff raff. Maybe we should have a recommendations system and some sort of "playing in" process too?

OP - do you own a badger?

What a game! Hope Blackpool win: they are much better than Cardiff and Cardiff in the Prem would be disgusting.

This thread contains some of the best posts ever in this forum.

FFS. How about this for an idea... put the money somewhere safe and don't spend it?
