Fair play to him

Tbf he was probably young enough to go clubbing when stuff like that was first coming out
-
Yeah, a I’d go as far as to say it should be illegal / punishable in this country to do that.

£100 per member of staff is a drop in the ocean for the club but it’s a canny bit of money at this time of year if you haven’t got much. Like could pay for the family Xmas dinner for example. What a cunt he is. I bet the vouchers are bought on a bulk discount as well. You’ll not get much from Marksies for 40 quid either -
And if you wonder how something like this works. It goes a bit like this: MP, former MP, former SpAd or something like that knows exactly how much was previously spent on these folders, where they were purchased etc. So they (for example) tell a sympathetic journalist at the Telegraph or the BBC to send in a very specific freedom of information request. And there’s your highly important bit of investigative journalism carried out in the public interest.

While it’s a joke the scrutiny over something like this seems to be a fairly recent phenomenon in the BBC.

Possible it’ll never be established but ‘after an evening with friends’ did immediately make me think about whether they were in a fit state to be driving. What a fucking horrible way to go like

Not sure satin and burning torches / crosses are a good combo. Although I suppose they would be at a KKK rally

Who will be my knight in white satin armour? Niche reference (unless you Google it of course)

No good deed goes unpunished

Terrifying seeing that for the first time aged about 9 or 10.

He didn’t have a copy of The Catcher in the Rye on him too did he?

Oil paintings are no small part about their texture. You fucking philistines

I think you’ll find he’s a gyneyus, who tells it like it is.

Have they gone from dreaming about how it’ll make them better than us (because that’s THE most important thing) to fighting with each other about something unlikely to ever happen yet?

Sexuality isn’t a cause -
Haven’t been there for nearly 30 years. Is it still a fucking shit tip?

Promoting sexuality -
Seen a fair bit of speculation that the Brighton success doesn’t have that much to do with him. He wasn’t there that long. As I’ve mentioned before, considering his sort of role is about the medium and long term as much as the present, he doesn’t seem to hang around places long enough for that to come to be properly assessed. Also, wasn’t he behind Allardyce getting the England job? The more I hear about him the more I think he talks a good game

It’s certainly inaccurate. I don’t even own a bike -

Ashley was a county squash player when he was younger I think. It’s difficult to believe Steve Bruce was once a top class centre half when you see him now I suppose. Re: the Ashley/Radcliffe comparisons. It’s a sign of his huge arrogance that the latter thought all he had to do was rock up apply some ‘business practices’ and Man Utd would be great again. He’s fired staff and put the ticket prices up. As though that does owt when you’ve got Rashford and Antony on £300k/ £200k a week anyway. Quite apart from making zero difference on the pitch -

Yeah. That’s a good point actually. And fair enough. Same sec marriage is allowed in lots of churches now, you can be gay and be one of the clergy etc. -
It’ll be interesting to see their published accounts. It’s being reported as £2-3m in some places. I mean if they’re saying that in articles it’s not an exact number so it just sounds like something they’ve been fed from the club. I doubt it was £20m but if it was as low as Radcliffe would like us to think then I think the owners would have just as soon took the hit and kept him on gardening leave. He’ll have received a decent settlement too presumably. Wouldn’t be surprised if the whole thing’s cost more than £10m.
