  1. This is what I sent to an agency who fucked me around last year...the first one was to the directors, the second one to the fucktard who was pissing me off when I'd been out of work for 2 months...just to say employment agencies, whilst being completely legal and indeed a multi billion pound "industry" are all without exception morally bankrupt paricsiticle cunts...why should any tosser in an office take a cut of my money for doing fuck all?
  2. . com are saying Pep Guardiola was there as well.....but no Mourihno apparently?....If anyone has a lot to thank Sir Bob for its surely him...he'd probably still be a PE teacher without coming into contact with Sir Bob?....am sure he had a good reason for not being there...maybe he wasn't asked?
  3. We're doing the old rope-a-dope. Let them throw everything at us for the first 20 mins, soak it up, then when they blow themselves out pick them off with our superior skill. Which is and has been a good tactic this season, but thats with Smudger clattering anything that moves.....sounds like theyre straight on to Colo and Taylor one each Ormerod
  4. Sounds like we're getting twatted.....would it be fair to say we may be missing Smith a bit tonight? Colo shouldve scored just then, cleared by a player on the line, apparently with his hand Butt misses a free header from the corner fuck.
  5. The strike has been called off today midday start in that boozer opposite the main entrance to the station with the hanging baskets outside
  6. Wasn't Khalid Sheikh Mohammed the man mainly behind it ? he was the on-site organiser but I was thinking of the demented Arsenal supporter locked in his cave somewhere................. I think conspiracy theories are generally a crock of shit...but I think he's been dead for years like.....there's been another audio broadcast by "him" this week but new no film footage of the fucker since before 9/11... They got him when they bombed the Tora Bora caves I reckon...or he succumbed to renal failure as he was seemingly on dialysis before he took the the mountains....but he's being kept "alive" for propaganda purposes so we can continue the "war on terror"
  7. Why? The whole idea of debate is that you state your position and then state your reason for having that position to give other people a chance to counter it. Yes and i think near enough every other person on here has agreed your point is a joke. I don't think you're quite understanding this. Answer this simple question: Why do you think it's a joke? because its a free country?....what are you going to do?....stand at the turnstiles at Blackpool and Ipswich shouting "you'd better fuckin sing mind ya bastaaads!"? I was there yeateday as well and we were about as vocal as usual at an away game....there are lull's in atmoasphere/singing at most games...especially last season...but overall we gave a good account of ourselves, as usual....mind I thought theyd be a bit more vocal...disappointed in that, and sometimes you need the opposing fans to be up for it as well.

    Geordie

    The porrigde mooth was wrong, and was probably trying to make some sort of fucked up nationalistic point. Try these for interesting stuff about the origins of how we speak today and local (mainly Nothumbrian) history, all by Alistair Moffat... http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=nb_ss_0_12?u...ix=alistair+mof

    Geordie

    Yeah, and many of them are the root of words used in modern English, so we're using the same words, but just pronouncing them differently, whcih means it's essentially the same language but a different dialect.

    Geordie

    The thing is, a lot of those words are just the way we pronounce words that are in use in everyday English spoken all over the world....."wor" is just another way of saying "our" and comes from the same root word, which technically makes the way we speak a dialect rather than an individual, stand alone language, regardless of how far back some of the pronounciations go. We did indeed all speak Brythonic (early Welsh) all over the British Isles until waves of Saxon and Anglian immigration, raids form Pictish and Scottish (ie Irish) pirates and of course the Roman invasion pushed most of the speakers of the language westwards into the mountains of what is now Wales, where the language continues to thrive, which in itself is a minor miracle, having been under huge threat for two thousand years, and from the two greatest empires the world has ever seen. Cornish, Breton,Scots,Irish,Manx,Galloway and Deeside Gaelic are all either extinct or dying, but Welsh survives, which I quite like Near where my old man was brought up in the Cheviots there's a place called Pennymuir: http://www.streetmap.co.uk/map.srf?x=37550...searchp=ids.srf its a very historic place: http://www.discovertheborders.co.uk/places/136.html not least for the actual name itself, which has survived in its original brythonic form, unchanged since someone first named it two millenia ago: penn= "at the head" y= "of" muir= "the walls".....(of the roman camp) for further confirmation look at the map of Wales where you find it unchanged as wel in Penn y ghent etc.... Makes you think doesn't it Stevie?....we're all fuckin taffs!

    Geordie

    "Geordie" is a dialect, which makes use of lots of slang words, many of them Anglian in origin. "Scots", better known as either "lallans" or "lowlands scots" is allegedly a language (according to the porrigde mooths), but it is a in reality just a dialect, with, in the south east of Scotland, many similarities to "Geordie". The western version, as spoken by Robbie Burns, is quite different in some ways, being influenced more by the Gaelic spoken in Galloway until (comparatively) fairly recently.
  12. Lucky more like Therefore by implication, the team has been lucky to get the results. Which is patently bollocks. Hardly, the guy's said we're going to walk the league with the squad we have, the squad is obviously too thin without luck having a hand in not getting injuries - it's got bugger all to do with how the first team has performed. Therefore the guy's been lucky that the first team haven't really had injuries, if they had it's doubtful we'd have got the same results during this start to the season and it's even more doubtful that they'd continue any further in to the season. It's easy to say that with our 'first team' we'd win the league, but with our 'squad' it's a different matter altogether. ... which isn't bollocks. Thats easy for you to say.....wtf are you going on about? whats " got bugger all to do with how the first team has performed"? Do you mean what the lad has actually said would happen?....he said we'd piss it, we have so far and thats wihout Shola in the last game, Guthrie for a couple of games etc....I do happen to agree the squad is probably too thin to sustain it, but no one else has said from the outset it would be this comparatively easy in this divison with the players we have at the club, so some credit is due surely? But if you mean the results we've had are nothing to do with how we've played (which is how I'm reading what you've posted) then maybe you need a lie down mate

  14. True enough, I think it's vital if we have any chance of winning it that Rooney, Rio and Gerrard are fit, if any one of them is missing I think we'd give a good account but definitely fall short. Reading Ant's comments, and yours it's always struck me, despite Britain's murderous past in Ireland, a large portion of the Irish people don't actually hate England when it comes to football, certainly no where near as much as the Scottish, maybe it's better education I don't know. Parky, Agbonlahor is one of the worst capped players in England's history, we have no alternative to Heskey if we want a strong cunt to win balls in the air, I think Carlton Cole's recent performances justify a squad position. Aggy can play on the right or in the center mind. I like the idea of bringing him on when Lennon is knackered. Just don't see CC as international class. I was thinking on the bog this morning that if we had a Drogba upront we'd be unstoppable. Thats the thing about big Emile...Drogba is the player Heskey could and should have been......but in the system Capello is playing Heskey does his job and creates space for Rooney to play in. It works, and he's found the key to playing Gerrard and Lampard plaing together i.e. Gareth Barry. And the players are shit scared of being dropped, no more "caps for the boys", unless you're Beckham. This is a very good England team with the right man leading them. If they win the World Cup it will be a great team. But they're going to need a bit of luck for that I like how he uses beckham though, put in some quality after one of the quicker lads lennon/walcott etc has worn down the fullback Yeah one ball Becks played when he came on was brilliant...sort of scooped it up and bent it round for Rooney...and I think he's definetly on the plane for SA...I don't think he'd be anywhere near the squad if he wasn't. I think Wes Brown should go as well, and could well start at right back....their goal last night came because Johnson allowed the cross to come in too easily. And he's a better player in the middle than Upson for me.

    82cm Rat

    trying to pull myself up on to a wall at a farm once and one that looked as if it could have been saddled and made to carry young children around ran across my fingers...I fuckin crapped myself and fell the 6 feet or so to the deck, badly spraining my ankle....fuckin hideous creatures
  17. Its strange you say that, at 43 I am the youngest of 7 so there was all sorts of music being played and lying around the house from my older brothers and sisters but I cant really remember any Beatles stuff. You're not one of them then. Imo, to appreciate a musical revolution you have to have not heard any music that came after it or is a derivative style before listening to it. The only way to fulfil that criteria is either to have spent your life listening to music pre-1962 and then at the age of 17/18 listen to the Beatles for the first time. Impossible if you have a radio or TV. When my dad (a professional musician) talks about listening to The Beatles for the first time, he talks about the first moment he heard it and the difference to anything he had heard before. His love for them comes from this moment, one which you can not re-create for later generations. I was old enough to see punk supposedly revolutionalise music but it was all exaggerated despite the enthusiasm of the fans - punk was supposed to kill disco/dance music but the 70s ended ruled by garbage like the Bee Gees and Michael Jackson - just like now the charts are still dominated by populist shite. Music to me is always divided between stuff that "proper" music fans - people who take it seriously - like and stuff bought by and listened to by more casual listeners who are often influenced just by the notion of popularity. I've always considered The Beatles to be on the latter side of the divide. Not really....John Savage's critique of punk rock "Englands Dreaming" basically says punk rock came out in a significant way as a reaction to the overblown prog rock/heavy metal excesses of the 1970s....why have three artics full of gear for ELP's mid 70s stage show or Led Zep travelling in seperate private jets when all you need is 3 chords an amp and some enthusiasm i.e. the much quoted "do it yourself" ethos of early punk....which is ironically where the Beatles pretty much started in the clubs of Hamburg, but after Shea Stadium they decided they didnt really want to go to where the likes of Led Zep ended up and they became a studio band as mentioned above. This suited all except George Harrison, who was later quoted bemoaning the chance to compare his skills against the likes of Jeff Beck or Tom Petty, and quite possibly paved the way for the frankly awful Travelling Wilburys
  18. Weeelll....it could be argued that The Kinks "invented" heavy metal with their track "Girl I want to be with you (all of the time)"......the use of choppy guitar chords which are left hanging in the air...this hadn't really been done before, and that particular sound went on to influence the up and coming heavy blues gutarists of the West Midlands around that time (Tommy Iommi of Black Sabbath,Ritchie Blackmore of Deep Purple etc) and also ex public schoolboy Jimmy Page (Led Zeppelin) who collectively it could be said laid down the basic style for every heavy metal cock/poodle rocker thats ever donned a pair of spandex leggings
  19. You mean he doesn't actually show that much support for the team?.....who'd have thought it?
  20. I'm going to the match, but I'm only going for a pint with you if you can guarantee Stevie's attendance
  21. possibly...Costa Rica at the moment....Honduras top, but its very tight. The top 4 teams qualify for the FIFA World Cup™. The 5th placed team enters a home-and-away playoff with the 4th placed team from North,Central America & Caribbean. http://www.fifa.com/worldcup/preliminaries...ings/index.html Honduras 7 4 1 2 14 7 13 USA 7 4 1 2 13 9 13 Mexico 7 4 0 3 11 9 12 Costa Rica 7 4 0 3 9 12 12 El Salvador 7 1 2 4 7 10 5 Trinidad and Tobago 7 1 2 4 8 15 5 http://www.fifa.com/worldcup/preliminaries...ings/index.html
