  1. We just need to win and I'll be very happy. We've won our last four league games at home, that's a good record to have and a few PL teams would like recent form like that. Let's just get the fifth win trouncing or not, (probably not in a derby).
  2. Even Aston Villa have got more through the door than Celtic. To be fair the likes of Leeds and Sheff Wed have been through some shit.
  3. I know my folks street had a very high percentage of people out of work on Thatcher's watch, my old man* had almost two years out of work and trips with him to the jobcentre were an eye opener. I also know during the early nineties I worked a year 5-6 days a week, (sometimes 7 days) for a year with no break at all as I was employed 'temporarily' and was entitled to no holiday time, no holiday pay and was on half the wages of the 'permanent' employees. (To even ask for time off was a serious black mark against you, at the time I needed the money and experience so had to bite my lip but I was burned out and my health and temper suffered). The Unions should've been on this but of course good old Maggie 'who sorted them out' had completely hamstrung them and it only took the European Union forcing equal rights on a reluctant government for some sort of equality to get back into the workplace. That's what she and her party mean to me. Watched a programme last night about buying property and selling it after renovation. A rundown, shit looking apartment in a drab set of flats in Islington went to auction for £392,000 and was expected to get £2,200 per calender month if rented out. That is over what my household income is per month and I consider I've a decently enough paid job. That says everything you need to know about the North/South divide which has got bigger since her time in office. Fuck her party, her sympathisers and she'll be remembered for what she was and stood for. By the way, any numbnut citing the Falklands can fuck off too. Our Forces were woefully short of equipment and resources and were sitting ducks for the Argentine Air Force. Hard work, bravery and bits of luck recaptured the Falklands, nothing to do with her. (You could go further and say the Garrison should've had more soldiers there in the first place as there was intelligence to suggest the Argentinians were up to something but her Government did fuck all until it was too late and risked all on a 8,000 mile gamble). *No 'Scrounger' but a hard working bloke who didn't fancy 'getting on his bike' as Tebbitt wanted him to do to get work as he'd already had 12 years on his bike serving his country and wanted to settle down in his home town with his family.
  4. Leeds is 21,526 matched and bettered by Sheff Wed, Leicester, Derby, Forest, Wolves, Cardiff and Brighton.
  5. For the record I get nervous too even though that's tempered with the knowledge that we're better and they deep down know it too for all their bluster of piss and hot air.
  6. You say 'enigma' I say 'Bull's Knacker'. He's lost all his derbies as Swindon boss despite being 'passionate' and his patter about being bigger than Newcastle Utd is straight out of the 'Congratulations on becoming Sunderland Manager, 100 top tips for quotes to feed the locals' manual. They loved Ball's passion, (1-4 at the SoL), They thought Bruce's side would win easily up here as they were far better, (5-1) and you could go on really. Keane and MoN were going to take them to the next level as well. I've heard it all before.
  7. Also be interesting to see what our little Celtic friend thinks of his club averaging only 33,692 rather than 45,953 they claim. (It'll probaby be a protestant freemason police force out to discredit Celtic FC I imagine). http://www.dailyreco...nces-up-1767244
  8. My Dad just dropped off some ladders he borrowed as he's stripped wallpaper from the passage. Apparently somebody wrote 'SAFC are shit' in 1986 on the wall.
  9. ........"He's a great lad, he's a canny lad, he's a sight for sore eyes! Yes we've got Kevin Keegan playing for the Magpies!"
  10. I wonder how many of the ticket buying supporters who don't turn up at Man U, Arsenal, Celtic and Rangers are just little more than a class down from corporates just buying ST's to ensure that they get to certain games? I'd like to see what Liverpool's police attendances are too. Anyone need anymore proof of the plastic nature of many of the 'glory' teams?
  11. I've just wrote a song about a tortilla, well actually it's more a wrap.
  12. The sooner Rangers get back up to the SPL the better. If it was over two legs Benfica would've got through against Celtic. 2-1 win at home and 0-0 in front of the plastic supporters wasn't it?
  13. He thought it was 'Topical' not 'Tropical'. Once he finished posting about it it wasn't topical anymore.
