Looking forward to Broccoli Head Jr. Pleased to hear there have been some nice moments for you in a very shitty time. My gran died a year ago, and my mam is taking the house, but it has sat for a year while they sell theirs etc. All of my gran's stuff still in it. Anyway, the time has come in the last month to clear it out, so she's been there with my sister, obviously an unpleasant thing to do, as you'll know. Loads of memories and their entire lives in cupboards and drawers. Heartbreaking shit like taking their dressing gowns off the back of the bedroom door - my granddad had died a few years earlier, but my gran had never wanted to take his down. Anyway, at the back of one of the cupboards was a bag with an old handbag in it, and a note that my Gran had written to remind her that my mam and her (long dead) brother had saved up for weeks to buy this for her when they were teenagers. My mam was in bits, but she also feels like it was her final gift from her mam that she obviously treasured this thing for 60 years, that my mam assumed would have been thrown out years ago.

Thanks gents Sorry that I’m pretty much a one subject poster just now, but I suppose it’s a nice change from tiddies and well, more tiddies. We’re just about done with regards to the “heavy lifting” of everything to sort. Got a date and time for her funeral now, will have a venue confirmed tomorrow for the wake, and most of the house is bagged, sorted and ready to go. I met with her brothers and sisters today for a few hours where they told me about their memories of her, her early life, and how much she’d meant to them individually. Really glad I went, it was so nice hearing them speak about her. Also learned a few things I didn’t know, the funniest being that Ma Fist had worked at an illegal greyhound “flapper track“ in her early twenties, as a bookies clerk. She had frighteningly fast mental arithmetic tbh. Fucking no chance of pulling a fast one with pocket money Also Fist Jnr informed me that he is booked in for a perm… (aye, a fucking perm !) on Thursday. I told him that after the funeral, he could do whatever he chose with his floppy barnet, but if he was seriously thinking about getting one before it, to consider what he valued the most- artificially curled tonsorial stylings or functional and still attached genitalia. He’s thinking about it

One of the kids at work has one, he looks like a fucking Alpaca.

I say he deserves his shot. 5 or 10 years ought to be enough say?

Tax the fucking rich

was a topic of discussion and a theory put forward in our post match analysis on the way home on sunday. obviously though most of the conversation that occupied the majority of the journey was centered on xp's, xg's, percentages and how many times you needed to run the model to gain the most accurate result. we all agreed in the end on about 10.000.

I’d give your view more credence if you knew the difference between North and South Korea.

I can only imagine how licked clean the inside of the car windows are by the time you and your mates reach your destination.

That's what he wants you to think

Indeed Chaser. They've had huge amounts of cash to spend, they should have been able to buy their way to the top with a bit of competence and strategic nous. Instead theyve fucked up each manager appointment in a perpetual cycle of early termination, binning the old manager's players and then buying new players for a new manager/approach. Theyve wasted such huge amounts of money theyve run out of PSR headroom deapite being one of the richest clubs in the world. Its glorious 😂😂😂 Now King Rat has come in and his solution is to swing the axe on the club infrastructure, destroying morale and any sense of club harmony. Beautiful, hollow the fuck out of them, we all know how that goes. Appoint a yes man like Penfold to run the club single handed while youre at it, that'll save a pot of cash. No doubt Amorim will be binned by next season and the whole dance will start again. The saying "the beatings will continue until morale improves" seems appropriate here.

Yes

Meanwhile his pick for manager refuses to change his system to work with the tools that he's been given, devaluing any future sale value, and destroying their morale. As far as a club goes, it couldn't happen to a better one, but I feel for the poor fuckers who are getting sacked as a result of penny pinching.

Daughter got two in the ballot today. A bitter sweet moment. Obviously I’m delighted for her, usually we attend games together and went to Trafalgar Square last time. Alas, she has acquired a boyfriend in recent months and I am no longer the apple of her eye In fairness, I had already decided not to go this time and she did ask me yesterday if I wanted to be included in the ballot. God knows how she’s going to get there!

At the MF household.....

I know it's an anarchic suggestion which might be painful but maybe we dropped off because Forest are a decent team who upped their game.

Well no, it's not, but I'll let you off this time. Are you sure he's not just bettering himself going to a poetry recital here?

I enjoyed American primeval but I don't know how as I didn't study American history at university?

Starmer could run rings around him in his sleep but he'll come across as a cunt to the average US Joe and will highly piss off Trump and his puppet masters. He'll try to be more diplomatic but as gemmill says he doesn't come across great when talking normally or nicely.

Some special adjustment no doubt (again) Amorim broke a finger nail opening a stuck drawer on his desk, £50 million HSE review by INEOS specialist.

A perm 😂 It's a shit emotional roller coaster time but I know when my mam and dad passed I still found lots of laughs happened in the week(s) too. At my mams wake a bloke came up to me and was apologising for not getting down to Leeds earlier we got talking about mam and then onto football. My dad came over talked to him and he went to the bar for a drink. I asked who it was he said 'oh it's one of your uncles' 😂 oh right. Mam was 1 of 14 the mad catholic bastards 😂

With the exception of daft bollocks above… …Dogs know the score

He's obviously a stand up wiper too

Ratcliffe and ManYoo are perfectly suited to each other. I feel sorry for the impacted employees but not the fans. I hope the club gets relegated and go bust, there's nothing remotely likeable about any aspect of them. Coincidentally I have a colleague who has rubbed shoulders with this tool at corporate events and work "retreats". They confirmed he is a titanic arsehole and even worse in person than he comes across in the press. Most people who have worked with him absolutely hate him. He lives in Monaco to avoid UK tax, which says it all really.

I like this nearly, but not quite, as much as the Inverness Cally one.

The boyfriends a copper

It’s not at all, and she knew he was threatening me with it, which she thought was hilarious If he wants to look like an 80s scouser, I’m not going to stop him. I have told that if he regrets it after the fact, my clippers are oiled and ready

Their manager probably told them Wyki was winding up his in-laws and they shouldn't have to put up with that. Make his pips squeak. 🙂

Tell Bruno’s agent he can sling his hook if we get an offer in the region of 70-80 million. Build the team round Tonali (once he’s back from his loan obvs) and Miley

Your fuckin stats still haven’t relegated Everton, even with a points deduction

He must be using a very old photo.

Botman and Joelinton both close to being back for Wednesday apparently. Nobody gets between these lads and some fanny licking.

I enjoyed it too and I didn't even cry watching Dances with Wolves.

Macron had to swallow some of that shit as well. Basically tickling his balls to keep him hard.

Let the boy get his perm, I hope this isn’t disrespectful but I’m willing to bet your mum would find it funny that it winds you up.

I've started listening to The Rest Is Politics US again, cos this past month, and the grief that Republican representatives are getting when they go back to their constituents, feels like Trump and Musk are doing too much, too fast, and it could be the beginning of his downfall. Which is something I'd like to hear about once a week.

Macron evidently nailed the cunt live on TV, Trump’s final comment was “you can believe that if you want” like a chastened 5 year old. Starmer’s up next, he’d better have his KC pants on, no fucking cow-towing or slavering.

The PSR situation doesn't count towards the likes of Man Utd. I fail to beleive they'll not spend a wedge in summer.

This lad’s no mug.

Whoa - back up there. PS Hope the funeral goes as well as can be expected. Keep taking care of yourself (and sort out your kid).

Profanisaurus incoming …

A bit OT but there’s been some good ones today

So sorry for your loss mate.

Expect them to rocket up the table now. If you work for Man United, you can be under no illusion the contempt this bloke has for you.

unbelievable. gemmill has done a toonpack and killed the message board for the day.
