  1. I wouldn't relieve on him if he was on fire. 88841[/snapback] Well, he's made few friends over the last two years. In his defence, it is a difficult job politically wise. You basically have to toe the club line or you get no exclusives - especially when you get a headcase like Souness in charge. But unlike Souness, I don't blame all the shit that's happened over the past 18 months on Oliver.
  2. This may also be accompanied by a dance. 88829[/snapback] I actually quite like that and Happy Face's.
  3. I think he's winding down ready for retirement, I'm sure we're all relieved about that.....
  4. Gemmills dying to meet his new master.....
  5. I don't know - I can't remember seeing ANY american cultural artefacts in the British Museum.......................... but there are a load of Egyptian bits and bobs - even dead people 'n aal 88764[/snapback] Yeah, that we fucking nicked. 88771[/snapback] The Elgin Marbles are from Britain though, right? 88779[/snapback] Aye, they washed up on the beach, salvage rights or something. 88781[/snapback] That makes us more Greek than Welsh, or something.
  6. I guess we'll be hearing these rumours for months to come now....
  7.

First the french are like muslims because they hate the US, now we are culturally more related to Egypt than the US because of some dead mummies in the British museum.
  8. What the Outsider's? It's wor lasses favourite film! I thought it was ok, expected a bit better from Francis Ford Coppola though. 88733[/snapback] Aye. 88735[/snapback] Glad we cleared that up. 88739[/snapback] Aye, so am I.
  9. Yeah, why would this country care more about things relevant to them? 88718[/snapback] Would 1400 yanks dying be relevant to us?????? Christ we'd have black arm bands tomorrow, the flag at Buck House at half mast and Balsir blubbing on TV .................................... but wait! We've already been there............................ 88724[/snapback] Why bother reporting any accident in the western world when there are people starving every day int the developing world etc, etc...
  10. Probably nicked by Geordie Fish tbh. Get on the blower.
  11. Well no, I just meant plain old fashioned islam. Not at all like the French (btw, haven't McDonalds in London been trashed by anti-capitalism riots).
  12. Are you sure you weren't knocked unconscious by depressurisation first and died in your sleep?
  13. Come on man, quit comparing the French with the nation of islam! Not comparable. Muslims feel threatened by free speech, that's the conclusion I am gathering. Well, without wanting to sound like Enoch Powell, if they don't like it, they can lump it imo. It's about the only thing I am willing to fight for, even die for! I'd rather not mind.
  14. and guess what................................................... he had alot sof seating space on public transport 88603[/snapback] Aye, he had a rucksack, a beard and he was Asian. No problem getting a seat on the tube 88605[/snapback] Seriously, would you sit next to a muslim with a ruckpack on the tube? I'd think twice. However, in his case I'd probably be consoled by the turban and guess he was sikh anyway. 88621[/snapback] He didn't have a turban. 88625[/snapback] Well he wasn't much of a sikh then - they are forbidden to take them off in public aren't they?
  15. It's true you become more obstinate with age I see......

  17. Exactly. Why are they that bothered anyway, why do they feel so insecure. If they are so safe in the knowledge I'm going to hell as an infidel, surely they'll have the last laugh? There's something particularly deep-rooted about the intolerance associated with islam imo. What other faith issues fatwahs on a regular basis? 88588[/snapback] Your right renton - it IS insecurity - they feel they are threatened physically by the Yanks, the Israelis and the Russkis an dmorally by the whole western culture thing (the French have a similar problem with the USA here) 88602[/snapback] That's complete bollocks like, and it leads to another problem with Islam, this feeling of brotherhood that transcends state boundaries. Another throw back to the middle ages, and completely incompatible with the modern world. Even remotely comparing it to the slight antipathy the French feel towards the US (which I partly share) is probably the most stupid thing you have ever said I'm afraid.
  18. Having said that, the Arsenal performance was a bit misleading. They bossed it in the first half but fell to bits in the second. They are really shit this year. I agree the crowd will hopefully boost the team on Saturday though - I'm looking forward to it more than I have in two years.

  20. I know what you're saying and I've heard this argument before, but does it really work like that? Are Jews more tolerant than Christians? Are Muslims more tolerant than Sikhs, etc.? 88576[/snapback] I think islam is a particularly intolerant religion, and just as importantly it is completely joyless. It is also sexist and I think Rob is right, it belongs in the middle ages at best. I read somewhere that if you are a proper muslim, you can't play or even watch football ffs. Similarly, chess is forbidden. I mean chess! Jesus wept! (no pun intended)
  21. Err, no. I'd rather you were man enough to admit you were wrong. You said they were killed instantly, and in all probability, they weren't, as they weren't subjected to a force powerful enough to do this. You were wrong, end of story.
