You tried this one @Gemmill ? Got a nice retro feel to it as well 👍🏻

I just thought I’d chuck that killjoy spanner into the works. It felt like it was what your little brain teaser really needed it’s all fairly arbitrary anyway. Given Jesus was probably born a few years before 1 AD (King Herod died c. 4 BC). Fucking hell, I’m boring myself now.

Despite all the millennium 1999 stuff this century and millennium actually started 1st January 2001. The first year of AD or the Common Era was year ‘1’ not a year ‘0’. AD 1 came immediately after BC 1. Although obviously they were not regarded as that until later.

Also could be a bit of a history rewrite to make him look less of a rat. Especially since it went so deliciously badly for him at Man Utd

Could’ve probably gotten away with giving him it as there’s a good chance a young lad receiving a diary (a fucking diary in 2024 ) would never have opened it

Flattering scoreline for Man Utd

Wore the number 99 shirt iirc

I did like this interaction on page 1 of a thread started by wschmidt about Jason Tindall:

I quite like the break and the kids are still at school. The youngest two still believe in Santa, possibly for the last year. So it’s nice spending a bit of time with them and so on. Went for a few drinks with Tooj last night. Good chance to catch up. But despite having plenty leave left and there being cover I’m going into work. I’m off later in the week but I just fancied going into work to do some of the stuff I never normally get the chance to do. But also to have a break from the eating and drinking. Like you I just get a bit bored of it all

You’re doing really well. It’s not fucking easy. It’s an addiction. Just keep at it. It’s worth it because you know there’s no real alternative. I think just about everyone who tries to give up suffers relapses. It’s such a readily available drug. It doesn’t detract from how well you’ve dove so far. It’s just a reminder it’s tough. Good luck. Literally everyone on here is rooting for you and respects your honesty.

And here was me thinking most Villa fans are boring cunts with shite patter

Always called himself Ritchie.

When we went to his wedding I saw possibly my all time favourite bit of graffiti: “Rab fae Cardross is a grass”

Don’t throw…..bloody spears…..at me

The Ministry one was my personal fave

Does a great line in novelty mugs though

Said this before but it’s ludicrous that officials have to decide whether or not something is deemed to be handball based in part on what happens afterwards

He was approached but he’d already committed to the new Ray Reardon biopic

@PopCrazedYoungsters get BBC4 on and watch TOTP Christmas Hits from the start. @Christmas Tree do the same on Channel 4 for Notting Hill

Just had a 90 minute snooze and I’m ready to go again

Totes morts?

I won’t be there so it’s fine by me

Hope you all have a lovely relaxing one. Christmas that is, you dirty bastards. You’re a quite bloody magnificent lot. Although I’d never admit to that when I was sober

Even their insults are boring
