  1. Good read that 2nd article, Meenz. Depressingly so.
  2. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/31600385
  3. :lol: How is that even worthy of a write up, man?
  4. Aye, what he omits is that he can play at full-back which is a position in which there is virtually no competition at the minute. Not to mention that he could do a job in CM (especially in a 3).

    Art

    There was a good series on the Beeb about art called Bright Lights, Brilliant Minds. It was a 3-parter focussing on 3 cities at key times (Vienna 1908, Paris 1928 and New York in 1951). The first part about Vienna is only available on iPlayer for a few more days: http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b04f83xq/bright-lights-brilliant-minds-a-tale-of-three-cities-1-vienna-1908 Obviously not for everyone like
  6. http://www.phrases.org.uk/meanings/no-holds-barred.html
  7. There's a survey here from 2011: http://www.holdthefrontpage.co.uk/2011/news/journalists-reveal-earnings-of-between-5k-and-90k/ Can't see wages having risen much by then and certainly can't see Ryder being in the top 25%. Obviously that's just one survey but if Ryder's on anything approaching £40k he'd have brought it up in one of his twitter spats already
  8. Pure speculation then? Like about 95% of his articles
  9. 85% of people on here probably earn more than Ryder as well though.
  10. I assume it's a similar story for the workers in most large construction projects in that part of the world.

    Have a good one, pet.
  12. Alan Oliver was canny shite but he occasionally got it spot on and you could have a bit of a laugh playing cliche bingo. WIth Ryder though it's just fucking painful to read. He's petty as fuck as well, not to mention having far too thin a skin, biting at every jibe on social media etc. And all that article shows is that he probably is trying to get his main (possibly only) source of info at the club the manager's job full-time. Which is the exact opposite of what its trying to achieve
  13. Aye, I've come out of this looking like the weird one. :lol:
  14. Red, obviously. It crept up on you like. You could finish the bottle with little discernible effects only to be trollied about half an hour later. Especially good (horrendous in fact) if you'd had a bucket around that time. Classy as well. My mate was a big advocate of Frosty Jack (3 litre bottle which always included 50% extra free). His farts stank that night so fuck knows what sort of Dutch ovens he was baking overnight / the morning after.
  15. Forgot about Thunderbird. Proper wino's shit. Cheap though
  16. Do you have another anecdote related to a family member that can back that up?
  17. He's at the stage in his career where he's only going to be able to iron out some of those faults with game time though.
