Well, here's a sorry tale. Late last year I made a small purchase in a shop of a couple of quid, didn't think anything of it but coincidentally, a month or so later the wife's card got scammed, we spotted it, got our money back quickly, card cancelled etc but as we were going through our bank account checking out for what was legit payments and what wasn't I spotted something from a shop that was £92 odd. When I checked where the shop was I remembered the small purchase and it isn't a shop where you could spend much so wasn't a scam. I went in the shop and saw what I bought and it did match up with what I'd bought but plus £90! So by this time the receipt was long gone so I went in, saw someone there who was one of the partners, showed them the part of my bank statement with the money coming out, explained what I bought, how everything matched up but plus 90, told them I realised it was probably just a mistake by whoever put it through and asked for the overpayment back. I gave them my details and asked them to look for their end of day receipts record, stock etc. No bother so far, the lass said they'd check it out and pay me if it tallied up, seemed genuine to be fair and she'd mention it to her partner. Here's where things start to go wrong. No contact for a couple weeks so I pop back in, this time the male partner is in, gives me some tale about getting on to it soon so I leave it that. Nothing happens again. I keep going back every few weeks and keep getting some bollocks about his card machine handling company not giving him access to the end of day receipts. A couple of times he was slightly cocky and I knew he was full of shit. Guess where he sounded like he was from? By this time the missus has checked him out through the power of women's Facebook stalker protocol and his timeline had loads of stuff such as mags 0-3 lads. So now I've went from being a bit pissed off with the fobbing off to full on, do I go in, turn everything over and stott his head off his till or do I go in, look down at my feet, being embarrassed knowing that I'm inherently inferior to him and fear a good kicking and apologise for pestering him? I of course decided to use common sense and tell him he has a week to get in touch with his so called receipt company problems or I'm taking him to the small claims court and basically telling him he was full of shit. He then told me to go ahead as that was the best outcome clearly thinking I wouldn't bother. Two months later a letter gets posted to me by him telling me that I'm owed money and could he have the details, please? he then spends almost a week not paying me before I get in touch again before he comes out with some bollocks about his solicitor forgetting to pay me and forgetting to sort the court details. (He obviously didn't bother his arse defending it). Anyway, I looked today and he's finally paid me back plus the small court costs. What a stewpid, thick MLF, morally sewperior bull's knacker. He can now update his facebewk account to lads 0-1 Mags. P.S. I also looked up his company and he's been fined before by the authorities for selling shit, out of date stuff etc. As Tammy Wynette almost sang, 'sometimes it's hard to be morally sewperior'. PPS. Maybe I should start a rival business up if the opposition is as thick as this mackem cunt?

Eales looks like the type of guy that gets very inappropriate at an Xmas party.

I find this whole, the club HAVE to tell us what’s going on malarkey, mental. Erm, fuck off, no they don’t.

Fair do.

Was it the Derram Bewk Centre?

I get the distinct impression she would've bollocked the daft cunt as well. (unfortunately/fortunately the court costs weren't too much but because he's delayed it, it's now on record for six years for creditors etc to see whereas a payment in time would have avoided that for him).

Absolutely bonkers init? Last week I was doing a job where they had plant on top of a 'standard' loading bay. One of my first questions 'How do we get access to that' blank faces from the Architect and MEP. FFS.

Wyki the Toontastic Craig Hope

the stupid newport cunt. nufc consumes his existence, he probably isnt even aware safc are temporarily top of their league.

And if you’re wondering how we managed to pull off the result, Exile has the answer:

The Mag’s been shite for years but those adverts as well? It’s painful to read before you even get to the article, if you can call if an article. I love how these self appointed super fans think they’re entitled to answers as well. Proper toys out the pram, entitled, cringeworthy ‘I want a pony’ with nothing in the way of analysis

Aye. I do feel for Howe having to front it all up - if he's "Head Coach" instead of manager, and someone else is in charge of transfer business, there should be a separate press conference at the end of a window for Mitchell to answer questions. And Howe should just maintain his "I'm not involved in the detail" responses whilst the window's open. But as for the rest of it, the bloke can fuck off. If he can't work out how we got in a PSR hole or why we needed to do what we did to get out of it, I'm not sure any answers will be able to help him.

He's going to get robbed so many times.

I don’t know for sure, but I suspect he’s a six-finger-special by birth, then his standard of living improved vastly when he moved to Newport

Name and shame the thick bastard’s shop please

This lad is suffering from an acute case of “ All The Gear But No Idea” syndrome. Luckily for him, if he keeps on hanging off cladding tiles he won’t be suffering from it for long. For those of you wondering what is wrong with this , he’s drilling in to, and hanging off, cladding tiles, not a solid building wall. Those things are secured to the building by various means, but all of them are only designed to take a little more than the weight of the tile, not fucking Monkey Mick here. Other than that , he breaks one of the golden rules of rope access right at the start, by only being secured to one point. ( The rope running from him to whatever it’s tied to inside is essentially pointless, since if he fell on to it, it’d very likely be sliced by the window edge, if not, he’d be taking what’s known as a factor 2 fall… internal injuries and pissing blood for the rest of his short life. ( edit: as PaddockLad points out , it’s utterly pointless too, as the ac unit could’ve been fitted from inside the building ).

Lucky for him the evil Islamist Saudis have banned Christmas.

Hahaha I act as Principal Designer on our high rise jobs, if I put this in my maintenance schedule/existing hazard register I would lose my job.

when eales departs the scene, exposed as the incompetent, beer swilling, karaoke singing, smarmy, snake oil salesman who ruthlessly stabbed wor mandy in the back, you're gonna be left with no alternative but to revere hope as our very own carl bernstein, you do know that don't you?

Also those 6 bags of money the idiot posted would never actually fit inside an envelope.

Imagine

Keith is at it again on a thread about the uncomfortable train journey Alan Shearer's had. "He basically signed for the mags on a whim after all but signing for Man Utd. He's not a real fan and never has been." https://www.readytogo.net/smb/threads/shearer-on-the-train-back-from-portsmouth.1640125/page-7

Oh God, there's 2 by 4s with more range. (I learned the lingo from my Joiner)

Not to forget: I am sick and tired of some so-called Newcastle fans

Let’s club together and buy the cunt one. Might fall off and snap his entitled neck.

https://www.themag.co.uk/2024/09/my-open-letter-to-the-newcastle-united-owners/ The man wants answers. I want answers for some of his previous articles: Sacking Alan Pardew - be careful what you wish for. What did sacking Alan Pardew actually achieve?

Sometimes as well you get someone working somewhere and they’re running a scam but everyone else there is legit / completely unaware. Glad you got your money back anyway. I would imagine the small claims court costs would’ve been a reasonable amount for them to pay too. I bet his lass was like “I fucking told you just to pay them back what we owed”

You’ve got some neck

Until that day, I shall hold his reporting in the same regard as the stories of Hans Christian Andersen (but less accurate).

I was searching through the match thread wondering what the fuck I had done with this post.

If they won the championship and we won the carabao Cup they'd be fucking devastated like. There would be more threads on us than them, with them frantically deleting or parsnipping them.

We're back to them thinking they're a mid table Premier league club again. It's.... We could knock them out of the cup to put them right if they hung around long enough.

@Monkeys Fist gives this ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

How to improve your squad (technically not optically)

1) They’re Man Utd 2) They won the FA Cup 3) See point 1

Man United's problem is coaching, not personnel. They look as fucking clueless as they did the past two seasons. They're all over the place. Bringing different players in won't help.

Aye, I mean they also think they're going to win that league. But two things spoil it for them. One, they won't. And tow, that nagging doubt we may do well. We probably won't either like.

The bad thing about Trippier wanting to leave is that, if he ends up staying, his level will drop a lot. It's something that has already happened to him at Tottenham and Atlético. And the drop is really very noticeable. I think it seems clear that it was he who asked to leave and who leaked the rumours. The Turkish transfer market closes in two weeks. Today, it seems that Howe already thinks that Tino is the starter and Trippier is going to be the substitute. Maybe it's not a bad idea for him to leave. I've never really liked Krafth, but little by little the guy is performing well and I think that's enough to be a substitute. When Botman and Lascelles return, which will happen in a month or two, the most normal thing is that Krafth will no longer be a centre-back. We're not going to get anything for the transfer, but we will get rid of a very important player, perhaps the player who earns the most, and that will help our Fair Play. And we can always sign someone who is free (I've been looking and there really aren't many options, although some like Sarr or Atal who, if healthy, could be interesting). But I'm very afraid that Trippier will stay at the club and take away more than he adds.

Ashworth watching our summer transfer window

A young Orca is swimming with his dad and says ” Where did I come from Dad?” Pa Orca says ” Well son, you came out of my penis and met one of your mother’s eggs, then grew in to you her belly.” Kid O is impressed and says “ Wow, thanks Dad!” Pa says “ You’re whale cum, son, you’re whale cum”

Sunderland is 95% white too. They smashed their own town up for "makkin shewa it stayuhs that wayuh marra" reasons.

I'd be keeping a low profile with regards to smashing up City centres as well like if I was them

Whereas they'd have left the women behind and got in the lifeboats with the kids.
