ASM just knows these things, it's one of his gypsy powers. He lies down before it's about to rain too, I've heard tell.

They had him do a drugs test after one of the interviews and he was clean, wasn't he? It's just the residual effects of decades getting so high that you're incapable of ever truly being sober again, see Ozzy It's because, deep down, he's a massive bell-end more like. And to fucking go on about normal people and their "boring lives"- fair do's as I've no doubt there must be elements about his day that must be vastly more interesting than sat at work behind a desk, but have a bit of self-awareness about that at least. You're not in that position because your talent or uniqueness elevates you above the masses (as he clearly seems to believe), it's because you were born into an anomalous life of acting nepotism, where financial reward bears no relation to talent and as such you're constantly out of touch with reality. As is plainly the case here. And what his kids need clearly is a bit of 'boring' parenting. Tbf it doesn't bother me that much because I don't watch 2 and a Half Men , but it's the bit where he's saying anything's ok as long as you're honest about it and it's better than being a hypocrite about it. That's all well and good and in a limited sense he makes a good point because I imagine Hollywood is one of the most hypocritical places outside of mainstream politics, but he needs to be honest about (rather than gloss over the fact) that his approach to parenting is a recipe for fucking his kids heads up. That'd be honest.

me obviously cos i dont even know who paul is. Story checks out. How old were you at your first game against Villa? A. 14 B. 40 C. Wait while I ask my mate in the City top. [subtle/] 13 actually If you're not Paul then welcome to the board!

Ah well that's alright then.

I dunno, she doesn't look much like Paul. It'd be very subtle for him if she is.

He meant at the start of it, not before the end of it.

Nice Father McGuire reference. That fuck-off massive rollerblade when he's hallucinating going cold turkey!

How's your stool looking today? Stool free so far *Head out of toilet window, beaming away, singing at the top of his voice* "Stool free..free as the wind blows.."

Ydafftwaa . Best clips round along with 'caravan salesman' and 'a team' I think Zero is American like , an American version of Garth Crooks . Aye, I think ASM might be right on that tbh. Though he did say nappy instead of 'diaper' so couldn't say for absolute certain. Zero is definitely Mr Michael Douglas in that scene though, he's wound up to fuck in every post he makes. "He's been stuck in his car and it's a right hot day, so he's got a real nark on, I'm telling yer!" ASM: "Get out of here you daft twat! You daft twat!"

Baseless claims that ASM is Chinese and Year Zero is American, reminds me of Vic and Bob's classic 'Falling Down'.

If anybody's not getting the Alan Partridge/Tony Hayers BBC canteen scene in response to this theres something wrong with them.

"Where the fuck is Dan with that nice bit of stilton he promised us?!"

"Which cretin has pointed the brie?!" etc etc. Seriously though, crossed some sort of line there by the sounds of it Dan.

Some Pinot Grigio / Pinot Gris is really nice but I think it's just most British drinkers like bland shite so that's what most of the stuff you get here is (same reason Carling, Fosters etc is so popular). i just recently discovered dry reisling. like a lot of brits, i naively thought all reislings were sweet and nasty but it's actually an absolutley lush grape. really minerally and crisp with some citrus fruits in there. about £10 a bottle for a good one mind so not cheap but well worth trying if you haven't already. Good work.

Been on the NZ sauvignon blancs for a while now as they deliver precisely that (some more so than others, but theres always enough choice that one of the better bottles is on offer down from a tenner). Will have to give dry resiling a go to see how it stacks up. Would never even have considered it tbh.

Aye. "Do you want to be witness to a murder?" "Errr...no thanks" "It's on the internet!" "Oh now you're talking, what's the link?" Seriously, wtf?

300 posts, some of them racist, and you're so insensed by someone you're after a winner takes all ban? Try not to get so easily upset tbh.

Ones 5 times champions of europe and the other is not. Want to make any other comparisons? I dont think you cant dip shit. Liverpool the only English club to do it Ones won it 3 times without killing anyone. Nice one, Craig. Didn't even know you had those kind of powers. It's Craig's show, man. Need to get brushed up on your Toontastic history! Good ban btw Chayton. He'd been building up to that for a while now the little wanker.

Ignore that, just realised I misread.

I think that's a good point in itself, but still it doesn't explain why in the past there was an incredible amount of talent from round here, and now there's next to none. Surely that much of it is just randomness though. Ie a conspicuous number of good players in a short period. Scotland (not a huge population, and as such a valid comparison) had it too. Great players in the 70's and 80's and nowt in the last 20 years. I know what you mean like, it's galling. I was always proud growing up as a kid that even though we won nowt the region was still the cradle of footballing talent for an entire nation. Probably was just our time though. PS the current list is horrid. I'm a better footballer than Michael Carrick and that is only the mildest exaggeration.
