Then I'll revise my opinion to "Fish's latest attempt to overshadow his mates".

Aye sure fuckface, and no other profession relies on teams of people working together.

I refer you to the title of the thread. idiot boy "it's not a bad investment at this time of our life ( 20's to late 30's) mainly because the majority of weddings will be happening around this time." What did that bit refer to then? Serial marriage - Fish's latest attempt to find a housemate who likes him.

Aye, I was on best man duty recently and regular smart suits were the order of the day for us, too. The groom got a right earful in Moss Bros for daring to buck the tradition (and spend less money) though - "You do realise these are interview suits, sir?". Aye, 'cause you'd turn up to an average interview in a waistcoat.

I've got some greasy corporate presentation muck to translate, then I'm freeeeee

Don't make this thread more embarrassing for me than it already is, thanks. Patrokles Emre ...what?

Karen Dalton (various stuff). Right old foghorn of a folksy/bluesy voice this woman had. Lovely stuff.

Had that on my wall as a teenager. Obviously.

6 Music. iLiKETRAiNS session coming up apparently.

Half of the rest of us never stop going on about it either. Toontastic so cliquey. Where exactly is this fucking clique? It's not as if I've ever been invited! Oh. Forget I said anything then.

Floating around in a primetime entertainers swimming pool 'sexy' injuries or just a good old fashioned shoeing type of injuries? PS I didnt hear you complaining at the time. I wasn't, but shh. There's nothing wrong with enjoying a good psyching-out.

Aye, what they said. Hope it's not as bad as the injuries my fella wanted to inflict on manc-mag after he heard about him groping my arse in the opening minutes of our first game.

Half of the rest of us never stop going on about it either. Toontastic so cliquey.

Quality! Anyone remember when that was the backing music on the BBC 'final score' football results service? Aye, it's still the first thing I think of when I hear it. Fiona Apple - Extraordinary Machine

So true. so not true Ok ok fair enough. The keeper isn't stood behind them, he's sprawled on the deck picking the ball out the net. What is this "effort" of which you speak?

Spartacus

Can't be, he didn't foul the defender first.

Kind of wish I'd seen this Hartlepool lad's goal, then, if Martins's goal against Spurs came second to it. Anyone know what it was like? I assume it's the second goal here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cOQ8M9fTKH8

Aw, the typo's been fixed. I quite liked the idea of him as the Scouse version of Kanye West.

Whats that got to do with the price of cheese? My family lives in Blyth and i watch their games. Isn't RICO a new poster? J69 clearly just thinks he's Crimson under a new name, the cunning stunt.

How is it a cliquefest, for fuck sake mate is that your response to everything? "Friendship" is just another way of saying "evil clique", y'know.

Now see, this is the point in the thread at which you could note that either [a] J69 has been told his opinion is "wrong", wah wah waaah, or we're having a decent little discussion using his opinion as a springboard. It's all in the perception.

"Darth Sidious Gets A Job"

I don't know how much it relates directly to the point in question, but I've always said that one of the simultaneous strengths and weaknesses of this place is precisely the fact that a lot of the most regular posters do know each other in real life and meet up on a (semi-)regular basis. It makes for good craic and is a lot healthier than the "OMG look at mi internet powerz" approach elsewhere, but - even if I don't agree that new posters' comments get stomped on in quite as brutal a manner as J69 suggests - I can totally see how the general atmosphere would be offputting for your average newcomer.
