If that argument held any water very few managers would get the sack in the first couple of seasons of their contract but the average length of time PL managers have been in situ is actually less than that, even taking into account the likes of Wenger. It's obviously not a decision he'll be happy about having to make though. Do you think Short's just going to let him keep losing games like? In theory you could say he'll keep him with next season in mind but in practice when does that ever happen? And would it work anyway given the negativity of having a manager who just got you relegated. That's before you even get onto the fans' view of him.

Aye but that was just you being contrary

Leazes was great crack when he was on about Tony Green and the like. In the end that accounted for about 1% of his output (which is probably being generous). He got himself banned really. A quick look at his twitter feed suggests it was best for all concerned.

Eventually all opposition is crushed on here. It's like North Korea

If they'd had a vote in Parliament instead of the shambles of the referendum then they would've agreed to remain by a huge majority. Now they'll all be banging on about :quotes:The will of the British people like that normally concerns them.

I wonder if they'll sack Moyes if they lose to Bournemouth. He can't have too many chances left.

The FA seem to be using this to attack Fifa, which is political in itself and demeans what it's supposed to be about in the first place (i.e. not jingoism). -
That's why it'll be a surprise

Actually agree that it's meaningless when it's forced (as this would've been) although that quite possibly wasn't his point -
"Geek passport" is a decent effort too.

Read a bit of Foucalt and Derrida at university. I wouldn't read it for pleasure like

Tell you what's a good introduction to philosophy if you haven't read it: Sophie's World.

I like the cut of his jib but 10 minutes on Youtube is enough for me.

L'Etranger is worth a read. It's a novel rather than a philosophical essay though. Which is probably why I think it's worth reading

Start with the Greeks as most of the others since are just discussing what they said anyway

It was a difficult day for all concerned when Martin finally told his parents he liked cricket

Aye, this one https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientology_and_Me There's a brief description of what happened too. It's worth watching actually. What a bunch of paranoid, crooked fuckers they are.

Tbf I don't think pissing on bouncers is something anyone should be pilloried for

There's not a cat in Hell's chance of him getting back in the side but my point still stands.

Did anyone ever see this btw

What I want to know is - who created the aliens?

I suppose it's arguable it's both or either. I think the Buddhists like it to be class as a religion in countries where that carries tax benefits though
