It means CT has just moved one rung up the pyramid scheme he’s been trying to flog us for months by recruiting Trump.

You’ll have no pictures soon.

Nice to see that patient confidentiality is alive and well.

Thank fuck for that, given his skills at manoeuvering motor vehicles he'd be fucking lethal with a scalpel

I’d love to go to Japan, like. Not for whatever Ewerk has just sent though. Not a chance I’m clicking that to find out and get my laptop seized.

Careful. The club’s stasi roam this forum

Aye, pinball, that’s why you want to go there… https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burusera

Probably do about 40 books a year, but my job is a doss. Most reading is done once the mrs has fell asleep at 9pm, fuck watching the shite on the telly

No you predicted that the club’s communications on this matter were of no real concern and this time for a change you guessed correctly. Me and Wykiki asked relevant questions and it was talked through between us and we came to the same conclusion that you did after you stated that you worked in a bank and how the fuck should you know anything, which is a conclusion many of us had reached some time ago

i just opened the botman thread thinking it was the isak one and saw the news about his him being out for 8 weeks due to a procedure to remove fluid from his knee

"Oh hi there, I'm Elon. You might be wondering what I am up to. Well you'd be right to wonder. I am currently in the office of the DoD - no not dungeons and dragons you silly goose - D O D - By the way, did you know I am the greatest D&D player ever, officially too. I definitely didn't pay someone to be the best in my place like I did that other game, which also didn't happen. I digress, I am here searching "gay" in the computer - though, unfortunately all I am seeing are photos of airplanes and not massive willies - so they're being deleted. Obviously. Anyway. I'd best get back to it."

You want to try living here, mate

My Goodreads stats also suggest that my concentration span is deteriorating along with the state of the world.

I’ve read two Orlando Figes - Natasha’s Dance - A Cultural History of Russia A People's Tragedy: The Russian Revolution, 1891-1924 (Which was a fucking door stop but brilliant) and The cards of the gambler by Benedict Kiely which was less heavy

* His spaceX rocket exploded again (2 in a row marra)

So are we all in agreement then? It's not Bunce's fault, it's not Howe's fault, it's not Mitchell's fault, or Botman's. It's just one of those things.

Oh and my Pal the knee surgeon isn't PL

The original report said he'd taken a knock on his knee so if true that would have nowt to do with an early/over-strenuous return.

Bunce:

That's your International Women's Day prize sewn up to go with the Parent of the Year. 🙂

It’s not that I don’t believe what the club or Howe says. It’s that I don’t have the medical knowledge that can get me from “almost ready for the next game, not quite there” to “he’s got fluid on the knee, he needs an op and is out for 8 weeks” Is it a chronic condition? Had the issue been ongoing, was it being managed thoughtout his recuperation from his ACL, if it was that bad why was he almost in contention for a place on the bench v Fulham etc etc?….… anyway, I’ll leave you to your latest book “Lee Harvey Oswald definitely killed JFK by acting alone, the FBI are stand up guys”

Read at least one book a week. Hate to think what the percentage is here.

😬

Peter Schamone?

A nice holiday pic of HMHM trying to have a bit of craic with the locals.

If they're coming back 1330 Monday they'll miss the match. Apart from that it's brilliant

It’s great living like Schroedinger’s cat.

Aye as soon as the noshes dry off he'll be fucking crying out for a boring, centrist Brian Badonde impersonator - and I hope we're all in agreement that he can fuck clean off. The only thing worse than being a yank is bucking a yank - the only thing worse than either is having a yank refuse to let you get your hole. Wyki's pal is pond life IMO.

Love it. Love everything about it.

This would still be better than Joe Kinnear trying to sign Shane Ferguson from the club we'd loaned him to

For where we're at you're looking at cast offs from the best sides in that situation. No one is going to send us any promising youngsters knowing that they're not going to get regular time so you're looking at a situation like Villa where they're loaning established players no longer wanted by their sides and those players are few and far between.

I think that was just really a case of knowing it will never get overturned. Where we need to really to cut out the be nice crap is lawyering up and going after the PL once the City cases are done with the related party shite they pulled.

He fucking loves his own voice doesn't he? I've heard so many theories this week as to why he behaves like he does. One of the most plausible is that he's treating all this as a gameshow and still thinks viewing figures are the key metric to his presidency. Even after last Friday's debacle, he made the comment that he bet those watching on TV loved it iirc. I get pathological narcissism is a thing. I just don't get how anyone could vote for it.

I used to read more novels before smartphones. Tend to drift off in bed to a podcast where in the past I would have read more. Sad really that I’m so addicted to this bloody device. Doesn’t stop me telling my teenager off for using his too much, like I have any moral high ground. I’m basically a massive hypocrite, and he’s started calling me out on it

It's perfectly possible that he could both be in contention for a place at Fulham and then subsequently succumb to whatever is going on with his knee. Bit of training and it flares up and, actually this might not be what we first thought it was. I don't have a problem with believing that.

10 years married, no arguments.

The way things are going, Bruno will miss the cup final for the same reason.

FFS.

Nah, everyone I was mates with over there was an expat. A couple of the Canadian lads still live there - one of them married a Texan lass, but she wasn't daft so I assume she's not pro Trump. Or maybe she is and she's getting ready to march on her husband's homeland. I went to their wedding, and it was a serious money affair. Her parents hired this huge city hall type building in the centre of Houston and I don't know who exactly was there, but there was security all around the block for it - assume it was big oil men and some Texas politicos. Obviously I left as early as I thought could be considered not rude, which was almost certainly earlier than anyone else would have considered not rude.

No matter the here and now, Phil Mitchell has a fucking job on in the summer. His reputation for unearthing gems is going to be tested to the limit considering there’s about 8 teams all shopping in the same market these days. And we need about 8 players

Yeah, at the end of the day it’s all the fault of PSR. Whether we make the right choices or not under these circumstances is another matter.

He was very interested. Said had a nice lumper put aside for Scotties inheritance and would I be so kind as to invest it for him. Dropping the cheques off later today. You’re welcome.

Bloke sent me an email at 17:08 on Friday and then sent a Teams message ar 07:08 this morning aisling if I'd read his email. Well yes cunt I did, but I'm now going to ignore it for at least a day - if you're lucky.
