Reminds me of Brit Cal, they got done for discriminatory advertising of job opportunities "Must be able to wear mini-skirt" was a job criteria, their excuse? well we wouldn't want anyone hiding a wooden leg.

you'll get loads of pictures of VW Golfs,the yanks call them Rabbits...or at least they used to.

wasn't Austin a bit of a hot rabbit??(from the French Lapin Chaud....sex maniac)
-
All very well if what you need is a rabbit I suppose.

At one stage Swindon's manager said that only Blackpool's bid was anywhere near their evaluation, so exactly why they'd accept bids below their price would be difficult to explain. Burnley probably upped their bid after Ipswich were turned down by Austin.It was also said yesterday that Ipswich were the only club having permission to speak to Austin , ie having had their bid accepted.So Kaiser's informant obviously didn't get it quite right but then that's not KS's fault really.

And there was me thinking they were our new shirt sponsor for next season. What a let down.

Charlie Wayman was a Geordie,played most of his career up that way although he did put in a 3 year stint with us back in the late 40s early 50s.Whether our CW is a Gooner I just couldn't say.

University Graduates and Unemployment
Window Cleaner replied to Window Cleaner's topic in The Lounge
Hey I did a summer at the MMM between School and Uni, that would have been in about '73 then . I loved it, cleaning the cars in the morning, tour guide in the afty, balling out the punters for leaning into the old Bluebird and a big Gold coloured speedster that I can't rember the name of. Best holiday job I ever had. y -
Adidas must be giving us a shedload for the publicity campaign on those shiny orange boots.He's obviously switched from those red and white Nikes he had a couple of weeks back.

University Graduates and Unemployment
Window Cleaner replied to Window Cleaner's topic in The Lounge
Nope they gave me money to go there when I was a pup.The tuition was free and you got a grant of sorts which your parents had to supplement or not according to their status. -
University Graduates and Unemployment

If I remember right you went about it in a different way, job first higher education afterwards within the structure of your job, is that right? -
1 in 5 in excess of 2 years unemployed, surely that can't be, what do they teach in those jumped up tech colleges nowadays then? I mean if it costs 6000£ a year for 3 years and you can't get a decent job at the end of it then most of those degrees are a waste of time surely. When I was at Uni the employers came round to the faculties and fought amongst themselves to hire graduates.Then again 2% of the populace went to University, the rest did HNDs and City and Guilds.

Once again the old 7 million £ gamble, we more than recovered all of that money with the sales of Kenwyne Jones,Pele and Chris Baird not to mention Gareth Bale.Where we went wrong was in allowing the totally useless Burley to re-spend the money on massive contracts for has beens who did not perform. If you look at the whole Wilde/Crouch execs administration I'm sure that the fees out roughly match the fees in.It was the pay for Idiakiez,John,Euell,Rasiak,Saganowski,Vignal who were totally useless that did for us. How any idiot could pay Vignal 11K a week for what he put in for us is totally beyond all comprehension, but that came from Burley's total lack of managerial ability rather than anything else.

Bale - If only we had that sell on fee!
Window Cleaner replied to Matthew Le God's topic in The Saints
Let me just point this out to you one last time. All the money spent by the Wilde administration was subsequent recovered in player sales and then wasted on old hacks and has beens. -
I think we do yes. Don't like to see all this stupid talk about if and when and whatever.We aren't going to be spending 2 million on any player just now, not 1.5 million, probably not even a million. All this transfer talk and closing in on and I guarantee that Austin will be signing stuff has just created unrest among the populace.
-
Nobody has discussed personal terms because we obviously have not obtained the right to discuss anything at all with any player. Even if we bid the bids were not high enough and that's it and all about it,and it wouldn't be 200K missing either it would probably be half the required amount.
-
Leeds were a good side, you only have to look at where they are now to see that. We too are a good side but we have glaring weaknesses,Right Back, Left Back,Keeper and one Central Defender just aren't good enough to be able to compete with a motivated United side.
-
Man U won't give a toss who plays for us and who doesn't. SAF has already decided who plays and who doesn't.Any Man U side should be good enough to beat Saints because we have inherent weaknesses that even their reserves or U21 s or whatever they call them could exploit.You only had to wach them grind Blackpool down to know that, that's what they do Utd, they grind you down and eventually win.What are the odds on a Chicharito HT,cos with Fonte and Jaidi or Fonte and Seaborne that's a good bet. Anyway I am certain that if Sir Alex wants to know the exact status of Adam Lallana then he knows it already.

Window Cleaner replied to Matthew Le God's topic in The Saints
Depends if a sell on fee would transcend the demise of the original company doesn't it. Depends if SLH were the recipient or SFC. -
So if you bet £9 on Utd at 4/9 and £2 on us at 7/1 you'd be sure to make a profit if the game wasn't drawn ?? I suppose it depends on what the betting tax is these days.

OP is: Kelv has SKD on his shorts.
