Aye. Were they charvas by any chance?

There was a couple I was annoyed at. An obvious one and one involved in a notorious incident in the first World Cup I can remember (82)

73 without cheating

Scotland?

What the fuck? That’s terrible. I don’t know how some people live with themselves.

Maybe a shady cabal of Papuan businessmen will come in for them.

Also reminded me of Stella Street when Jimmy Hill / Phil Cornwell was shitting it after Joe Pesci / John Sessions called round wanting to know which ‘shit fuck prick’ had put a football through his conservatory window.

I mean it doesn’t really matter as the real thing was at least as big

Is it not Phil Cornwell playing Jimmy Hill?

Maybe he just meant his misery

Aye, Butcher was definitely past his best but he wasn’t really exposed in the 3/5 at the back. Des Walker was outstanding, which helped. Mark Wright at sweeper iirc.

Leave it, Dorris. He ain’t worth it

Didn’t want to get confuse with the bloke with neurofibromatosis?

Good spot. Possibly why the song doesn’t stick in the memory too (with the Euros being a much lesser affair back then). I’d guessed Adams was in and around the team for 86 but didn’t make the final cut and that’s why he was on the video. Going back to 88, those performances saw Adams left out the England setup for years afterwards iirc. In retrospect, a young player being humiliated by MVB at that point didn’t exactly make him a bad defender

From this January

Yeah. He played 2 or 3 county championship matches last season I think.

Or called a ‘Mag’

Buddy Guy?

I don’t even remember that but I do recall this pile of shite from 4 years earlier:

Great if you love constantly being covered in dog hair too 👍🏻😂

Yeah but we’re poor cunts now

We crate our greyhound as she basically used to have a shit and a piss almost every night on the kitchen floor. We tried all sorts and thought we’d cracked it only for her to fall back into the habit after a couple of good nights. She’s an ex-racer and she was two and a half when we got her so we concluded it was ingrained in her. I don’t particularly like doing it but she goes in last thing at night and one of us gets up about 6 - 6.30 to put her in the garden so she only sleeps in there. She goes in no bother (even at other times) and is generally a very happy, contented dog. I would tend to agree you don’t need one if you’re getting a puppy.

The other thing I’d say is match the breed to behaviour traits. It’s not a perfect guide to what they’ll be like of course but it’s a decent indicator. Talk to people who have a dog like the one you fancy getting. Don’t do what most people do and buy one just for their appearance
