Alberto Frog!

So, reading between the lines, it's all Craigs fault ...oh do you know angry2, excl and blush2 are repeated 3 times in the 'Show All' listing? That'll be all to do with the import to the new server....

Smilies 'were' fixed. If they're not now, someone's been messing with them and I've not.....

That would be true had we not spunked money on the likes of Owen, Boumsong and Luque with a similar amount of cash soon after. I still think we were right to go for Owen at the time. Injuries are something you just can't envisage or help. When he's played, he's been well worth the money. The other two, I agree, was money down the pisser as they're shite

It's gone now - hosted at peasepud.com. Hmmm.....

it's still there for me...

Anyone who knock's Rooney's ability are in the same category as those who reckon Owen isn't far and away our best striker. We can all go on about a striker 'on their day' but if you compare them all 'on their day', Rooney is streets ahead of most. We were right not to buy him but it was from a financial perspective, not a footballing one.

God knows.... Are you a firefox user too? If so, we'll be looking in Pud's direction

Nah, I distinctly remember Alex changed his from Alexthemag, as though he was so fucking special that he no longer required the suffix tbh. Gemmill's been Smithers Jones and Turd Ferguson. Wacky's been Careless Whisper. Warrington Minge is now Radgina IIRC. oh no it isn't.... Different town?

Nice try but no you bloody don't....

The best beatbox ever?

I've been using it for about 6 months now and am more than happy with it. Upgraded to Office 2007 about 2 months back and now wish I had it at work. It's needing a SP releasing and should be coming out very soon.

You don't live in the street where SMO parks do you?

It's funny how the line "this place is shit" is being uttered by someone who's posted nearly 4000 times here. If you don't like the way it is, do something to improve or move elsewhere.

Funny you should bring this one up.... I was helping out on our helpdesk yesterday and mid-afternoon nature (or more specifically, the night before's curry) was calling big time so off I went. Anyway about 15 mins I came back to find one of the senior managers talking to the helpdesk supervisor and then he look at me and said (in a voice loud enough that everyone in the vicinity could hear) "Craig, can you you please stay at your station and remain logged into the phones while you're on the helpdesk" with a right smug grin on his face because he thought he was getting one up on me. Simply replied "I was having a crap!" Helpdesk supervisor almost pissed herself and he walked away looking very red indeed

Be a bit more specific and we might.... Saying "Don't work" to me will get the reply "get your arse down the job centre then!"

De la Rosa and Paffett seem all but nailed on for the Prodrive seats. I think Alonso will go back to Renault and Kovalainen will go the other way Everything seems to have gone quiet on the Prodrive front - I was expecting some reference to it when Dave Richards had his helicopter crash but there was nothing. I keep forgetting they're in from next year... If Alonso heads back to Renault, I can see Fisi being the one to go - Kovalainen is one of Flav's own, is he not? I don't think he really has any long standing relationship with Renault apart from his year or two of testing. In reality Fisi and Kovalainen could leave, the former going to Toyota and the latter going to McLaren with Alonso and Piquet Jr. stepping in. Along the same lines, I've heard that Ralf will be 'leaving' Toyota at the end of the season....

Agreed, but if it was Newcastle I'd be relieved, not ecstatic... Nice to see them doing so shite though - I hate Spurs with a passion..

Fuck me, you'd have thought they'd won the league the way they were going on.... Their decision to not invite Graham Roberts to their celebrations is an absolute disgrace BTW. That would be the equivalent of us not inviting Shearer back if we celebrated 125 years. It's rumoured the Villa fans were singing 'Happy Birthday' when they were 4-1 up - class

Bearing that in mind, you must wonder how much ESPN Classics pay for the old football matches they televise..

'End Bits' are crusts IMO although I have had debates in the past with people who say they're called 'toppers' and that 'crusts' are only the edging around a slice - WTF?? I tend to buy whatever bread is on offer but at the moment am liking Warburton's Thick Sliced Toastie... Oh and hummus with pitta bread is yum...

I fully expect BMW to renage on their driver line up for 2008 and we'll see Alonso partnering Heidfeld (BMW would never drop the German). Begs the question as to who would get the second McLaren seat. Cautious money would be on De La Rosa I'd guess but he hardly set the world alight when he stepped in for Fat Boy... I'd love to see Jenson there, he deserves his chance in a decent car IMO.

Are those the ones that look like they're Teddy Bear's feet?? Was talking to Jo about them at the weekend and said they were gross. Someone at work recently got a pair and she apparently paid £300 for them! Rip off.....and they're shite!
