  1. I had a McCoys beef one not so long ago. Superb. Especially nice with the added thickness of McCoys crisps.
  2. I just think the players arent very good, certainly nowhere near the hype. He got enough out of them to get to the 1/4 finals, on last nights performance that seems quite an acheivement There's definitely some truth to the players not being anywhere near as good as is made out. It does my head in every time we get to a major finals all these idiots in the media talking about how England have "as good a squad as anyone". Unfortunately Shearer is one of the worst culprits outside of the "Boys from 66" who make a living out of saying that stuff. Unless it's their turn to be the controversial one and say that this squad wasn't a patch on theirs.
  3. It's like backstage at Robot Wars on here at the minute.
  4. Gemmill's thinking of investing now. Thought he'd be too busy writing poems tbh. I've never had a Nintendo though. Deprived. Where did the rumour you started about me writing poetry come from anyway? I'm no Wacky Jnr It was cos you were reading books on your lunch hour outside the civic, I think.

  6. Have you got a DS like Alex? Didn't have you down as the game playing type.
  7. The thing with Sven was that you always used to forgive him the crap performances on the basis that "it's the results that matter in qualifiers". But then every time we got to the finals we'd discover that he actually couldn't get good performances out of the players, and that we'd only been winning in the qualifiers because of how weak the opposition was. Now we can't even win in the qualifiers.
  8. True, but the perfection of the bobble was something else. It was as if a Croatian mole stuck its head out of its hole and flipped the ball perfectly over his foot.
  9. I was badly trying to say he shouldn't be playing for England even without David Beckham. Ah right. Nah, probably not. It was always just gonna be a matter of time before that scoring run of his stopped. But definitely without someone there swinging quality balls in, he's not good enough at this level.
  10. McClaren found out already tbh. Crouch is utterly redundant without Beckham's deliveries. I pissed myself when Robinson missed that clearance.
  11. I never actually got him to swear, so I think I'm innocent there. It wasn't for want of trying though.
  12. No wonder I couldn't do a forward roll It was like the pole vault.
  13. We had a lad at school who was one. He wouldn't swear no matter how much I tried to goad him into it.
  14. See Obagol's answer above. It's possessive. I can't think of an example where you would use an apostrophe to denote a contraction where you'd removed an entire word from the sentence.
  15. The hardest thing in PE was the contents of Meenzer's underpants.
  16. Remember Caramac. Disgusting! Wasn't keen on Gold Bars either. White chocolate is too sweet.
  17. I knew the answer you mong! GCSE English tbh. And you have the word "writer" in your job title. There's only one t in writer btw, in case you were wondering.
  18. Tell me about it (with feeling) I really DO sympahise - I just don't want him getting screwed TWICE He'd be better off leaving it in his name I suspect and his ma can spend the cash or even give it to him - she can give him £7k a year withoout anyone paying any tax - or buy a second home in Costa Teeside or whatever Aye that's probably his best bet. Otherwise he'll be handing over the bulk of the proceeds from the sale to the tax man. I remember studying tax for my exams, and every time you thought there might be a loophole the lecturer would go "But of course the revenue have considered this and...". Aye, of course they have.
  19. God I've only just seen this thread. How thick is Renton?
  20. Fox's Classics are lush. Although I'm still not convinced that that's honeycomb. It's just biscuit. I still get them from time to time but I normally polish a packet of 6 off within 2 days.
  21. I'll be honest and say I didn't see much of Ginola play 'live' because tickets were like gold dust then, but I can't help thinking Ginola was not as consistent as you make out, and like I say, the stats tell a different story, even if there is a case for them to be misleading. Anyway, they were both good players, so I'll leave it at that. Oh, except to say, I think it was Ginola's decision to leave, and iirc he managed to insult the area too, so don't blame Dalglish for everything! Aye I think he'd wanted away for a while actually. When a London club came calling it wasn't a hard decision, but Dalglish definitely wasn't keen on him which probably helped make his mind up. Unlike Robert though, Ginola went on to show us what we were missing at his next club.
  22. And Ginola wasn't better than Robert But he was though. And your analogy was a shambles.
