  2. It's a Cartier, there's only one person camp enough to wear one of those around here, no not you Martin.
  3. Must make Carroll surplus to requirements. What about Loic Remy on loan? Think I read he's looking to move.

    No that's country music Unfortunately watches are a bit like cars if you have a mechanical interest.
  5. Because in 1972 when refrigeration was nowhere as good as it is now, chicken was expensive as fuck and a rarity. There are recipes from the 40/50s for 'City Chicken' which is not chicken for that very reason - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/City_chicken

    That's a classic, Brietlings are way to over the top without 'radiation'. My Dynamic is identical to that picture, steel band, white blue white face, only difference is the days are in Suisse not English. Mrs Nb has a ladies version with the face in reverse, blue white blue, and no day date, which is nice albeit a manual wind.

    If you're open to suggestions I'd recommend either a 50's or 60's Omega (the Dynamic I have is also from around '67/68), good watches and parts are still readily available; alternatively military watches are great value and you can get some amazing watches like Jaeger LeCoultre for a fraction of what their other models cost; or look at a good vintage Tudor, which are Rolex movements and cost way less.

    Parky it's pre-Tag, when they were just Heuer from around 1968, also a manual wind. When I bought it 15 years ago it only cost about a grand but over the years its cost that much again in servicing and restoration, I only got it back about 6 months ago after it had spent a year with an old watchmaker restoring it. Autavia's weren't that common, compared to a Monaco or Carerra and getting parts for it are near impossible.

    Like Gloomy and Alex, watch wanker here but vintage, so probably worse. But I tend to wear one of these most days
  10. Read it again, it's not sacked, it is to leave, which is something we all fear.
  11. FFS Trooper give the man a break, he's trying to get on with his job of pre-season. Highly unlikely but I'm hoping Rafa's silence is because the fat cunt is actually in the process of selling up and Rafa know all will change soon. I'm dreaming aren't I?

    Anyone with decent music taste, so PL, Alex, possibly J69, definitely not thompers, Amusement Parks on Fire are touring the UK in November and they are playing the Cluny on the 19th. Unfortunately they have never played here but from all reports they put on a decent show.

    Gigs 2025

    San Jello, no? Undertones was last night, not bad for a bunch of old men. Paul McLoone does a decent Feargal Sharkey impersonation. New Christs next weekend, Ed Kuepper in August, Fazerdaze in Sept, then At the Drive-in and Peter Hook's version of Joy Division/New Order in October.
  14. How stupid is that? Wasn't Mourino the one that got shot of Lukaku when he was a Chelsea?
  15. You guys have it totally wrong, Ashley's not a kid and he doesn't like toys. He's one of those cunts that has an opportunity to buy a really nice car, one far better than he ever deserves but in order to justify it and give him a tax right off he plasters it with huge stickers for his business on the doors and thinks he can make an extra quid by selling the space on the boot to one of his mates. He's also a stupid cunt and doesn't service it regularly, so every time he does have to fix it it costs him far more than it should have.
  16. Something like that, took the record from cousin Doug by the odd can. Family's never been the same since.
  17. Don't be dishing the greatest Tasmanian ever. Record holder for the most cans consumed between London and Sydney.
  18. If you like the Beach House, the Sundays, etc, so dream pop, this is NZ's latest export, Fazerdaze.
  19. Armstrong's days must be numbered as well, so if Mitro and Murphy are off we definitely need another striker in.
  20. Two, where has Woodman gone? Last season we had a keeper out on long term injury, one away on loan and bought another, so looking at it logically this season we were always going to have two surplus to requirements. You would hope because he supports Newcastle and the thought of playing for his club and Rafa would appeal. He shown he's an outstanding keeper. I never said he would I just suggested he would be a worthy target. That's his fat name is it not? Jelly Elliot, Jelliot?
  21. Jelliot and Darlow are both mistakes waiting to happen and that's why Rafa wants a new keeper. Krul (sorry Timmy it's time), Sels and Jelliot should all be shown the door, Darlow kept as number 2 and a new keeper brought in. I'd like to see Forster brought home.
  22. That's the one. Hate to think what the soundtrack for Judgement Day will be but I bet CT has it on cassette already.
