    I seem to remember a lot of talk about 'muzzies'

     

    Tbf, I can't recall much of that other than the usual post 9-11, Iraq, Afghanistan rhetoric at the time

    Is anybody aware that Pie from Skunkers is now an international best selling author, who holidays with Murr from Impractical Jokers 🤣

     

    Funny old world.

     

    The makem? Ex "Special Forces" or something. The one Walter wanted to be but just had to live off his scraps through name dropping?

    Wasn't skunkers full of racists? :lol: Admittedly I think the last time I went on there was like 2005 or something. 

    I wouldn't doubt some may have been. My recollection of it is "anything goes" 

    Not as in its OK to be racist, for eg, but as in one could verbalise in whichever fashion one wanted without fear of causing offence. 

    Think amateur Frankie Boyles

    Any former members of Skunkers on here?

    Skunkers was brilliant. 

    Some good kids on there. Neil from the DIY 😉 and a bloke who sold stove chimney flues who's name, shamefully, escapes me 😕 Top lads. 

    Was also on Toontastic and let some of them kip in my house when I was on nightshift. Just left a key for them. 

    Place was spotless 😂😂😂

    That is true but the gap was manageable. Newcastle were up there and spending similar amounts. In todays game the gap is getting bigger and bigger because like it or not Man City & Newcastle are owned by countries 

    We were spending similar amounts, in the end, by buying players from loans based on future season ticket sales etc. 

    We're we not upto our eyes in debt when Hall dumped the lot while Shepherd was in hospital? 

    Neither coughed up anything other than their initial investment in shares? 

  5. Fwiw I think that kid wiping his arse on the Blunderland flag was shan patter. 

    Every England game there's loads of (shit) flags from all over the country. So what? 

     

    Also, to me, it looks like the owners of aforementioned flag are lasses or, at least, the people sitting adjacent to it are lasses. 

    Kids either a coward or lacks class or both.

    The Brazil squad are there - my mate got some cracking photos with them! 

    So is Luke Littler

    He supports Manure

    This might have been pre-arranged

     

    Worrying

  7. Mrs G, who knows her football, has just sacked it off for a bath. 

     

    "I'm sorry but I'm going in the baaaath. This is boring. Gives you a flash of what the Euros is gonna be like" 

     

    She knas

    I really don’t think he is at the level we need - too short and misses sitters. An upgrade on Miggy yes, and as an understudy, okay, but capable of starting regularly for a top 5-10 team in world football… not for me.

    Will give him my full support, and hope I am wrong if we do sign him.

    We should do whatever it takes to get a young generational talent in, not settle. We should be all over Olise or similar and wait for him to reject us, before heading down the list especially at a reported £50m.

    So ok for us 🤔

    It’s not a term that I like to use, but it’s a term used to describe people in those roles.

    Ah kna man 😂

    Having said that I think those grafters who steer 30 trolleys back to the grid have some skills. I can barely navigate 1.

    Also one of my 1st jobs was shelf stacking for Willie Lowes in Berwick. 

    Had one of those guns for sticking price labels on and I thought I had skillz

     

    Got peddled for nicking a tin of Quality Street. I was a bit miffed because they had zero evidence except the word of a grass. 🙈🙉🙊

     

     

    As for Tosin, disappointed but what can you do?

    Thing is though, he’s a footballer, not an unskilled worker.

    He’s at a point where the increase in wages isn’t even felt because he earns so much, and he has the money to buy a new house, and time off during the summer and international breaks if he’s not called up to go back where he’s from.

     

    Your analogy works better if he was offered the CEO position of each supermarket. With one it’s round the corner from him, a slightly better wage, but he doesn’t do anything. He’ll never be called up to supermarket CEO awards dinners, he’ll never get the chance to implement changes that would change retail etc.

     

    The other job is further away, a little less in money, but he’ll be called up for CEO of the year if he does well and compliments those ideas he has etc.

     

     

    Why am I even going to these lengths to correct this?

     

    Bit tory that, Stif 😉

    Beth.

     

    Tesco turned him down. Explains a lot.

    Is their Clubcard the same as a season ticket? Asking for a makem.
