The wife had an elderly great uncle who was Polish. Never noticed any racism about him Whatsoever but the bloke lived some life being held at one point held by the Soviets and then the Nazis then getting over here to get back in Europe and fought in Monte Cassino among other places. Lovely bloke.

Take away his NUFC time and he's still excruciatingly awful to listen to. How the fuck someone thought he'd make a good 'pundit' absolutely beats the shit out of me.

No, I only helped where it was donkey work and I was off plus painting etc when done. I knew just about everyone who had to do jobs so that helped as if there was a fuck up it wouldn't be left like that as they'd have to face me in the future!

He's one of those people where the tradesman claps his hands together then starts rubbing them as soon as he looks at him.

I feel your pain.

Well it was easier on the eye but HOLD THE FUCKING PRESSES AND NEVER STOP HOLDING THEM......... This is what separates the men from the boys, the Hopes from the Ryders. 👏👏

'If patta was watta he's the fucking Sahara desert.'

Unlike my Murphys, he's bitter as fuck.

J69, your head must be battered. (I'd be up a height). Hope it works out as smoothly as possible and you can look back and laugh when you're completely settled at the new place.

Old school. 👌

When are they finishing the pipe?

I've worked with a few 'tall story' merchants but a few were real characters to be fair. The real work wankers are as funny as toothache and could never have you laughing. One old workmate told a tale about stealing a fire engine in Cairo and driving around in it to impress a 'Russian' princess he later shagged. Another old navy sweat told us a tale about a pet monkey called Gus which had us on the floor laughing. Apparently he traded a little monkey with some natives offshore in Africa, he knitted a red velvet waistcoat for it and they were besties at sea and he was basically Gus's dad. Then they arrived months later at Liverpool and someone said he couldn't bring Gus ashore so he handed Gus over to a passing tugboat and that was that. Years later, coming into Liverpool he looked onshore at some bushes at dawn and saw this massive gorilla like creature with little bits of ripped red velvet around it's shoulders. 'Gus?' he shouted and the beast obviously heard him and recognised his voice as it became quite animated beating it's chest and waving back at him.

More intelligent than the swimmer's son.

Worked with someone who reckoned his dad jumped overboard a ship docked just off Malta to swim there for a night out. Got halfway to shore and he was getting tired and a passing dolphin sensing him struggling gave him a lift. It was also on hand to help him swim back when he was full of blooter.

Wait till he tells you about the time Vera Lynn sang to him and the rest of the lads on Normandy beach a couple of weeks after they'd taken it good and proper.

Hard to believe Ipswich Town have sunk to the same depths as Sunderland.

Bruce on talksport? Nice, mutually beneficial relationship for both parties. I wonder who instigated it and what their motives were? Pack of wankers.

Did the sun win employer of the year that year? They fucking should have. A political target or scapegoat? We'll come at you with every dirty, underhand trick in the book. Work for us and murder your spouse? We'll keep you employed and pay for your QC in a trial. Horrible cunts.

Except for that time when he got relegated with notts county which doesn't seem to count as it wasn't the PL. Convenient for him. Till now.

BBC2......21.00......2024...... Paxman: "When Harry Kane was transferred to Manchester United in 2022 and was replaced by Callum Wilson from Newcastle United, who first broke the news?" [MAGDALEN, TORRANCE-SMYTH!!] Torrance-Smyth: "Omm, was it BillyMarraFTM on twitter?" Paxman: "Close but wrong, it was essembee on toontastic".

Here's a little thread which only reinforces my suspicions about this sky made programme. Haven't seen it as I don't have sky and can't say I'm losing any sleep over it.
