  1. Queen - Dead on time Go Brian, play that fireplace.
  2. Still doing better than Robson according to my figures By my calculations he's only won 27% of his league games as a full time manager. But you're a glass half empty, miserablist kind of guy. I'm a glass half full, benefit of the doubt, happy faced individual. Actually I made a mistake and we've won 30% of our games, not 27% (won 10, played 33). My outlook on the club is irrelevant. 33? 31 in the league. Is he not in charge of cup games? Oops, I was looking forward a week - 32% it is then. Seriously, you can't include cup games and make a fair comparison with other manager's track records based on this. For instance, what if one manger got ManU away in the FA cup in the third round, and another got a string of thrid division outfits at home? The latter's win ratio would be significantly boosted. Being in Europe would be a big boost too, and by your reckoning a manager getting results in the intertoto is better than drawing in the CL! By the same token, a team in the champions league should be able to attract a better class of player and should therefore have a better team geared towards success in that competition. A team struggling to get in the Intertoto cup attracts Onyewu, Bernard and Sibierski so managing them to a result is just as much of a challenge. A win is a win basically, you can only beat the teams you're playing.

  6. I always thought cult leaders were charismatic, persuasive, intelligent people whose friendly but persistent arguments could win over even smarter than average people. But I can't fathom how Phelps has been able to convince anyone to follow his lead, he didn't have a single debating tool in his grasp other than shouting down and insulting anyone who asks him a question. He must've been Lawrence of Arabia'd by a soldier in his past.
  7. No mobiles. A place in Whitley Bay does this already. £1 fine for users. ...and strippers.
  8. I was of the opinion that we should stick with Roeder, but it's getting impossible to reason that now. Give a new man the last few games to see how bad Steve Carr is.
  9. Don't talk to me about lofts. Had my hatch moved last week. The dust/soot that came down was unbelievable. Even with taped up doors it got everywhere. Need all new carpets cos they were fucked and the cleaner charged me £135. Plus I'm sure that's what broke my receiver...and the insurance won't even pay out on it
  10. The Birthday song was David Brentastic.
  11. Didn't exactly 'work' tonight either though did it?
  12. Just missed a sitter Maybe that's the gameplan, sent on to make the rest of the shower of shite look good.
  13. What a bunch of total cock knockers this lot are. Lovely blonde running round in a towel though.
  14. Well my mam, who was previously on basic - no sports, no movies, no V+ - got all of those added and her broadband upgraded with a sizeable discount on what she was previously paying. She did quote the stuff on the mackem site and was told that that deal was impossible, so I think you're right, there's some exaggerating going on there, but there are definitely advantages to ringing up and telling them you're leaving. Rang up again and kicked up a stink and got £12.50 a month off for a year You see? They tried to take advantage of you first time, but you showed THEM! I've been on to them again tonight as I had doubts as to whether i was actually getting 10MB B/B, law and behold, I'm not, only 4mb, something to do with a fault that they're going to have to find and sort out so as a good will gesture they wont be charging me for my B/B until June....result I think EVERYONE gets a free upgrade* in May and they're just placating you till then *2Mb -> 4Mb 4Mb -> 10Mb 10Mb -> 20Mb
