The Fish

Check out Mr Grumpy here, how dairy.

A choice between Old Trafford in a normal league game, or the 'new' Wembley for the Pizza Hut trophy is no choice at all.

Go to the udder one then.

If she's old enough for a loan, she's too old for that lot.

There's the growing danger that I'll be watching it round at the house of a Man Utd fan.

Tilleys?

I HAVE NOW!!! Shite, burn it.

Sausage Roel.

Shame, that might dint their push for European football this season.

Darling, I've always ploughed a lonely furrow.

Roel - Wiktionary Oh, yes it is

I like dropping nbsp's into other people's code. Because Fuck you Roel and your leaving early on a Friday ass, meaning I get all your bullshit work. That's Why!

Man, that must be challenging. I'd suggest getting a Kindle or something, but if the Mrs is a Librarian-- well that Dog just won't hunt, will it.

Oh, that isn't even the half of it. Sometimes text has an invisible character in it, it looks like a space, but it's not. It's a 'nbsp' or nonbreaking space. So when that character is in SQL or Excel codes or formula it won't work. And unless you know it's there you can waste hours or your day trying to work out why your code or formula won't work. This is a space -> <- This is a nbsp -> <-

Oh I go further than that, I'll BCC someone into an email chain. Hell, I'll wait until I'm on a call with someone, then say "Oh, I'll just see if [Senior Manager] is free." and add them to the call as an ambush.

You calling @LongTimeAdmirer a big girls blouse?

Wait, have I missed something? Your lad genuinely rips the pages out of books? What's that about?

Under Howe we've averaged around 2pts a game. That's good enough for 76points a season, which is good enough for 3rd place in 7 of the last 10 seasons. We'll be fine man.

I'm not in the least bit verbose, loquacious, garrulous or periphrastic, yet here we are.

I like Gelhardt from Leeds, but pinning your hopes on him to fire you to the Play Offs and beyond is setting yourself up for a pretty cold cup of Yorkshire Disappointea

Look at how we pursued Botman. We could have paid the extra money for him in January, but he wasn't convinced yet, the selling club dug their heels in and it turned out that we didn't need him. Fast Forward 6 months and we sign him for a fair price, the selling club are happy enough because they've had time to sort out a replacement, he's happy because he's had more time to be wooed/say his goodbyes/larn yesel Geordie and all that. This Franca kid, we 100% could have paid the £25m they were apparently asking for, but maybe he needs a little more convincing, the selling club have dug their heels in and that number 8 position is somewhere we're fairly well stocked right now. I also think the less we act like the richest club on the planet, the better business we'll get done. Can't imagine Newcastle spunking half a billion quid in a panic, disrupting the market place and fucking themselves in FFP terms. I honestly think the target for this season would have been pushing for Europe, a target that barring a catastrophe we should comfortably achieve. .
