Some great stuff in that list. They're all harlots except for my mummy.

Still fairly pissed off at the club's handling of the Wembley tickets, but its quite touching to see there's a 150 odd post thread on the situation on the SMB - since this morning. And this is definitely worth a thread. I'll definitely need to watch this programme and freeze frame it at this exact moment. FTM marras.

Helps that she was relatively attractive too. And that case where Wykiki is probably still on a CID cork board somehwere, Claudia Lawrence from York, was in the news for years. Compare and contrast with all the kids abducted from the hotel in Brighton under the noses of the Home Office the last few weeks.

Well Scottish Nationalists come across a lot better to me than English Nationalists. I don't get why NS would need a beard like, its 2023 ffs. As for the militant transgender stuff....

Sturgeon always seemed to rile up the inner gammon of a lot of people, including my mother, who loathes her (never understood why). I liked her, a very effective politician committed to what she believes. Be interesting to hear the reasonings for this resignation, and of course the real reason. She's currently pleading the Jacinda Ardern defence but I'm not sure that washes considering the critical importance of the next 2 years for Scotland.

Magnificent. I wonder how many people walked into lamp posts on that street.

Oh my. What a lovely pair of...... handle bars.

That's true but what really fucks me off is the lack of communication and transparency. So we were advised by the club if you want two seats together you will have to wait to apply using the mechanism of the fan who is qualified for the lower period. Additionally the club did not give out information on how the draw would be conducted (links didn't work on website and e-mail wouldn't clarify this). On the first point, this was a lie, or (according to the box office), they changed the rules half way through when they realised that minors had to be legally paired with a guardian, but just didn't bother telling anyone until it was too late. Cunts. On the second point, I'm going to fully agree with David Kelly and say it makes no fucking sense to reserve allocations to lower periods, I just can't get the logic of this. If in principle you think it's fair that fans should be stratified on "loyalty", however you choose to define that, then just fucking do it. Don't let a situation arise as has with us where someone who has been a ST holder for >20 years and clocked up 60 away games, and been to 2 of the home cup matches, ends up with no tickets. That's just not fair.

Does anybody ever bother to read what Fish posts? Anyway, how about hot, black, and up her arse? And yes, this does make sense, just ask Gwyneth Paltrow. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coffee_enema

First time I have seen somebody give a reason for an edit.

And I got an e-mail from NUFC! Season ticket renewal bill! Canny.

There's people who have got tickets and for whom this is only their second or third ever game. Bit of a joke really. The other thing is the delay in telling people whether they're succesful has made transporet/hotels impossible. I'll just watch it on the telly now.

An it wayz the wedding seezan marra.

They've managed the impossible. For Paul Ince to come out as likable.

Brett Eastman Ellis did a stream of conciousness thing once which I think worked and I quite enjoyed. I've never been as well read as you but honestly have just about stopped altgother now. Partly because I read from a screen all day and I now need glasses for text but can't admit the fact. Partly because I'm just too tired at night once I sit down, usually by 10. And partly because honestly, a lot of books I have read just aren't much cop. I'll get MSN for my hols I think.

Mass derlewsionnn.

He is but obviously he's ran out of ideas with his jetset life style now, like a once great band that descends into self parody. Still enjoy reading his stuff like, and Begbie's transformation into the blade artist was canny (if not entirely unbelievable). His description of neurosis and addicition, especially to alcohol, really resonate with me.

I thought I had read all Welsh's work ( I'm talking more than a dozen novels, novellas, and short stories) but this has somehow passed me by! WIll order immediately. I think Trainspotting will always be the Daddy for me though.

In the end we had to go to the box office just to get in the draw (at least they said that, but I doubt anything was actioned). I'm guessing that hasn't been successful as nothing has come out my bank account and tbh I'm not eve sure I authorised card details! So category 1 and category 4 ST holders who sit together, and no tickets (but a lot of hassle thrown in). Slow handclap for NUFC if this is the case. My biggest gripe about this is the complete fuck up with communications and transparency with the club. So as I've said, being tier 1 (with more than double enough loyalty points) obviously you're entitled to tickets, but I didn't want one alone and didn't want to risk getting two not sat together, with one of them being for a minor (incidentally, I only just missed out on tier 3 purchase for the second ticket by only going to 2 cup matches, not 3). But it was only after the automatic purchasing had closed before they informed me that had I bought a ticket and then and got one in the draw, we would have been guaranteed to have sat together, because of said minor. But by then we weren't eligible for the draw, because 1 was eligible for an outright purchase, and the other was a minor! And I suspect the box office eventually just paid us lip service and didn't even enter us when we complained because of a "computer says no" situation. Fair to say I'm fairly pissed off with this situation.

Alternatively..... It's Sunday 26th February, around 7pm in NW London, UK. Alain St Maximim has just score a last minute winner in the last added minute of extra time to win NUFC the League cup against their bitter red Manc opponents, ending a 53 year trophy drought (or 68 years if you're a mackem), and earning trophyshy a name change and several posters the anticipation of a tea bagging session with the reluctant hero. The ref blows the whistle, a tidal wave of euphoria passes through the ecstatic black and white crowds as Bruno raise his arms aloft. It's finally happened. Then suddenly there is an ominous humming in the air and the sky goes dark and cold..... Ahh fuck man. Typical.

Staff ratios in the UK are quite high compared withother countries tbf. But anyway, what's wrong with cages?
