Surely the “proof” is that Yeovil announced a signing of a player we’d had on loan all season, but we’ve said nothing about not re-signing him?

[alcazar]

Dunno about this one, I reckon it’ll divide opinion.
Took my eldest out for a meal to celebrate his birthday.
All was good until about twenty minutes in, when a large family was ushered in.
They had a young girl with them, obviously SEN, who hooted loudly ALL THE TIME.
They also had a dog, which attacked three other dogs who also arrived with their owners.
Both the hooting and the dogfights were roundly ignored by the entire group.
What are others’ feelings on the above?

[alcazar]

Yeovil have a bigger budget than us?
How come?

[alcazar]

Judging by those not renewing because it’s gone up, not a lot.

[alcazar]

Horton, yes.

A former work colleague and Notts fan has told me there are some Pies fans who are not happy due to his previous injury record while with them. I think the may have a point. It’s a bit of a gamble I reckon.

Aye, but they’ll change their minds if he stays fit

Supermarkets?
Aye.
In France, last summer, the checkout lady watched me unfold my bags, flap them to open them, then place them in the trolley to receive my shopping.
She then asked ho look in the bags.
I refused, telling her she’d just seen me open them from flat.
She told me she had to insist as it was store policy.
She had NOT checked the bags of the two French families in front of us.
So I explained to her that she had a choice: she could adhere to store policy and look in my bags, or not do so.
But I told her my policy: you insist, I’ll walk out leaving all my shopping on the till belt.
She didn’t look.

Bloody hell!
😳😳😳😳
I once had a 20 foot laurel swivel round and fall across my left shoulder while felling it with a petrol chainsaw😳
It had hooked itself up a neighbouring tree with brambles.
Luckily I was able to drop the saw, and duck backwards, but my left shoulder was bruised very badly.

Better putting them in the Mortz, naughty corner.

Amazing what you THINK you remember.
I could have sworn he traveled with the England squad AFTER losing his sight in his right eye 🙄

[alcazar]

What’s the next line?
“Deerey, has two, but very small..”?

Nah, it’s because I’ve had a shite life and alcohol dulls the pain.

[alcazar]

Pretty sure he did travel again.
Need to check

[alcazar]

Even Alf Ramsey made odd choices: taking Gordon Banks in 1970 when he’d lost an eye?

I meant a previous announcement saying something along the lines of:

“After an extensive search we are delighted to announce that Didier Divet is joining The Iron as……. He brings a wealth of experience and knowledge in grounds management from his previous roles at Garthorpe Canaries, Crowle Colts, Racing Clamart and Fulchester United. Didier gained an Advanced Diploma in Pitch Perfect Studies under the supervision of Lorne Greene at the world famous East Butterwick Academy of Grass Growth.”

You get my drift.

That statement pretty much says so!

He was at Fulchester????😳😳
Are we certain he’s not a cardboard cutout either a tape recorder sticky taped to the back of it?

“So yes, let’s talk about fairness in justice. But let’s not let “two-tier justice” become a slogan that excuses one mob by pointing at the failures around another. Hate does not become acceptable because it is attached to a legitimate grievance.”

It may not become acceptable, but it sure as hell fosters resentment, which, in turn, fosters hate, when you see a woman locked up for more than two years for a tweet, while a man of a certain religious faith avoids prison for raping a white teen girl, because the FEMALE judge felt the prisons were too full.
ARE the Met police even investigating the chants inciting violence?
Because the web is silent.

[alcazar]

“Real patriotism should mean wanting a decent, safe, fair society for everyone who lives here”
Ah, you mean like the two tier justice system we seem to have currently?

[alcazar]

I only want them if I can set fire to them while he’s wearing them.
😂😂

[alcazar]

Point them at Butler and Schofield.
Please.

[alcazar]

Done

[alcazar]

How do those against the march feel about the repeated chants of, “Shoot him in the neck like Charlie Kirk”?
Hate speech?
Inciting violence?
Or acceptable because it’s coming from the extreme left?

The ones that flip to 180 degrees are okay to drink from. If some people didn’t throw rubbish everywhere there’d be no need for them. The amount of discarded plastic bottle tops I’ve seen over the years is disgraceful.

Nope.
The spiky bits that originally sealed it poke your nose.

Tend to agree.

Going into full Victor Meldrew mode here.
I also hate the new rule that necessitates plastic bottle tops to be permanently attached.
They get in the way when pouring, and are awful when trying to drink from the bottle.

[alcazar]

Not sure where the EFL stand in law?
As the law at present states that anyone can photograph, or video, anything they can see FROM A PUBLIC PLACE.
How is football training exempt?

[alcazar]

They got wealthy backers?
We could sell them Butler, Schofield, etc? (More in jest for Deerey than in hope).

Another motoring one.
Unlit dual carriageway, good visibility, little traffic.
So you settle at 80mph 😳
But what’s this? Someone catching you? Is it 5-oh?
Slow to 70 then.
They catch you… And sit behind you.
And you can’t shake them off. Slow gently to 40, still there, accelerate briskly, still there. Seeing it’s not 5-oh, up to a quick , 90… still there.
The only way to shake them off is turn off or stop on a layby.
WHY????
