Good point Owen... http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2015/jul/22/left-new-labour-blair-brown-child-poverty?CMP=fb_gu

Ban him for acting like a 13 year old in the first day of his school holidays....if CT had started this thread he'd had been hung drawn and quartered by now

get the fuck out man

You definitely said words to that effect at some point in the last couple of weeks which is what I think we're getting at. One of your classic stock sayings on here is "GREAT SIGNING, WELL DONE MIKE!!....is he any good btw? I've never heard of him.."

Basque,Finnish and Hungarian aren't related to any of the Indo-European group of languages that surround them in one of the most densely populated areas on the planet

I'm not saying McClaren and his staff will definitely coach the players more effectively off the top of my head with fuck all to back it up though....I'm saying his first and most important task is keeping the squad motivated for 9 months not 5, that should get us 4 more wins iyam. Can you honestly say that a lad who was running a youth coaching clinic in Dundee 18 months ago will be able to add something to that? Am not suggesting for a minute that Cathro cant motivate top international players but on paper you have to admit it looks a bit unlikely. Yet you were saying "yeah they're all mint its fuckin great"

We'd be mad to write anyone off iyam. Clean slates all round.

The last two seasons would've been very different if we'd have have turned up for the second half of them. We'd have been at least a dozen points better off both times. That's McClarens first and most important job.

Great speech but tbf Mhairi Black isn't a classicaly trained actress

The SNP are playing some pretty petty games but at least theyre putting it up to the tories. Regardless of who wrote Mhairi Black's maiden speech (I certainly believe it was her but the daily hate etc aren't having it) it was the best 10 mins that's come out of that place in fuckin decades.

You don't need to be a socialist to know and accept that "one size fits all" cuts across all departments whilst simultaneously continuing the creeping privitisation of the NHS and education is wrong. Why does absoloutely everything that exists have to make a fuckin profit? Anyone with half a brain and who is fit,able and willing to work will do ok under this government but theyre saying a big "fuck you" to everyone else. Its not socialist to be against all that.

Well yeah he was but the perception was he wasn't. And the vast majority of his closest colleagues initially weren't. But Hattie has just proved that all that gang wanted was power and shes quite willing to sacrifice any shred of principle she had left to get it again.

As a unite member am being hassled to sign up to vote. Am tempted but the choice is fuckin brutal. I'd never describe myself as a socialist but they can't turn themselves into another bunch of fuckin Tories just to win power. It's fuckin ridiculous.

It's all mostly cyclical. There was a Tory on the radio yesterday droning on about how after the coalition's cost cutting in the last parliament crime has fallen and hospital waiting times had been improved and kids were being educated better blah blah blah...which all may or may not be true depending on what stats you want to believe.Thing is if Davey Milli arrives and saves Labour from themselves and there's another financial "adjustment" in the next few years it won't mean a fuckin thing. If the press turn on the Tories they'll be toast, same as Majors crowd were in the nineties once an acceptable leader emerged.

So you don't think McClaren has any chance of improving last seasons under motivated rabble?.....

Instead of Ann Franks house try the Portugese synagogue in Amsterdam Sud....fuckin eerie, Amsterdam had 75k Jews in 1939, and most of them worshipped there....in 1946 they reckon there was maybe only 10k left. Your missus will love it

I think they're both off and the new cloggie will be playing on the right

the thing they did with Pavarotti about holding a beauty paegeant during the siege of Sarajaevo is heartbreakingly great...Bono phoned some lass in the city live from the stage every night he was on stage during one of their mid nineties tours..

Whos "caner of the year" on holiday with his folks then??

That rings a bell actually, think I read it...http://www.amazon.co.uk/Unforgettable-Fire-Story-Eamon-Dunphy/dp/0140107665/ref=sr_1_154?ie=UTF8&qid=1437490044&sr=8-154&keywords=u2+book Its a pity Bono disappeared up his own arse a couple of decades ago, they were properly good in the 80s and early 90s. This is one of their best for me, probably the last decent song they releaed iyam..

Aye Boy is quality, War is great too but I couldn't make head nor fuckin tail of October. Under a Blood Red Sky was recorded on the War tour, my sister took me to see them in Glasgow round then, they were ridiculously good.

Aye Ray Davies is a good a songwriter as we've produced...so many different sorts of music....they say he even invented heavy metal with the riff to this..its said it was a major link from heavy R&B to heavy rock, no one had left the choppy chords just sort of "out there" before..

Mind and get your code from the DVLC before you go to pick the motor up...they don't recognise paper counterpart licenses any more..got caught by that weekend before last

Feel free to borrow for comedy account Dave

Ambitious. No Chi Onoura neither...
