what you have are some older posters who used to watch ossie lead out teams of mascots in front of 14,000 or so fans and younger posters who grew up in the Keegan days. Had I grew up in the Keegan days I would probably be equally negative. Right, so that would make Leazes in his 20s/early 30s, no? 'Team negative' is in fact inherently positive about the potential of the club, whereas you think we'll be lucky to ever break the top 6 again. No, not ever again. But under Ashley given his mindset and the money available to others I cant see it happening. So negative.

This lad Portugal have just brought on in the U20s on Eurosport appears to be greying already.

Nobody is coming out of this thread particularly well.

I'd say so, but then I worship the ground he walks on. It's theatrical, difficult, almost a bit darkly camp in places (if that's something you can ever say about Waits), so you probably have to be in the mood for it. Give it a go some time though.

It's originally on Blood Money

A tiny little bit genius.

Snap - though the tie stays at home from tomorrow and remote access will be possible. Funny being somewhere where things are happening and people have things to do after how much the previous place had turned to shit. Of course I hadn't been fully set up on the systems so its nice to see how IT production uselessness is universal. Only dodgy thing is its one of those "let's all stay to 6:30/7:00 just to prove how dedicated we are" - don't mind it for a while but I'll migrate to my 5:00 bell soon. Love the way that's always blamed on IT like. I can't speak for other organisations but at ours, the main problem is that the employee number is used as the login ID (an HR decision, NOT an IT one). Conversely that means that we cannot create a new user account until HR have informed us what the employee number is. Only they refuse to generate that number until the day the person actually starts (i.e. so they don't generate an emp no. for someone who thinks "fuck it, i'll not bother turning up" which happens more than I thought). Result being the new starter doesn't get handed their login details until midway through the morning of their first day. Then most secondary logins have to be created after that a lot of them rely on active directory. Be fucking wonderful to live in a world whereby we flick a switch and the job is done - not in the least bit realistic though. Don't give me your excuses bloody IT punkawallah, just get it fucking sorted Have you tried turning it off and then on again?

I posted it for you. I thought you'd approve after your Phil Collins megamix earlier.

Ploughed through Kathryn Stockett's "The Help" on Saturday. Not life-changing stuff, but rewarding all the same. Bizarre to think, while watching Merkel et al commemorate 50 years since the Berlin Wall went up, that the "good guys" in early-60s America were easily as hideous as their Commie counterparts. Also read Damien McNicholl's "A Son Called Gabriel" - a reasonably engaging tale, but the typesetting was so awful that the nerd in me can't possibly recommend it.

Einmal auf Deutsch bitte?

From what I heard they were referring to the use of social media to glorify gang culture, ie vids of knives and weapons on youtube/facebook and all that malarky. Just to be specific. I freely admit I'm going from news reports etc. here rather than the first-hand statements, so I hope it was as specific and targeted as that and I can merrily eat my words. I haven't had lunch yet. Failing that I'll just loot Kevin's Maccy D's.

Aye, what are the odds of any of the under- and unemployed young people involved in the riots having any experience in the heady world of the entry-level-wage fast food industry?

Me too, best website on the internet by a mile if you sort through the many mugs and add the right people. I very rarely even use the website tbh, browser add-ons and apps all the way. Ah aye me too, app I meant "app" yeez younguns. You knew what I meant. Honestly I didn't, I know a lot of people who just use it from the actual website (which seems a bit inefficient). Meanwhile, heartening to see Cameron vowing to clamp down on "social media", that evil and nebulous entity that allowed people to find out whether they were safe to leave their houses or not, communicated local information more efficiently than traditional news sources, helped people to organise voluntary clean-up operations and is still helping to identify criminals (while the latter were busy using the non-social-media Blackberry messenger system to arrange their next targets). How is that politicians (of all hues) can be so clueless about this kind of thing? I realise Modern Technology is a daunting thing if you're cut off from the real world in a Westminster bubble, but these people are supposed to have advisors at least.
