just because someone doesn't agree with your anti west do gooder bollocks doesn't make them a right wing reactionary Which anti west do gooder posting of mine do you mean exactly, you addled old tart?

As a wee aside, I was in Aberdeen the other week. Whilst wobbling back from pub to digs, I was asked by one of Aberdeen's numerous beggars for "any spare change?" He was stationed outside Sp***s D****t, so I told him if he pissed all over the shop doors I'd give him a fiver. He did- I paid. ( I know , I know, I was bevvied M'Lud)

And Mikes now going to takeover Blacks on the cheap. Its ugly but its good business. Another shop on the bouycoutt list. I just hope the fat cunt doesn't start buying food shops.

Just because someone doesn't agree with your right-wing reactionary bollocks doesn't make them Anti-West.

you want to change your name to Quisling Tree?

D'you think the kid was grounded?

I thought it was because Thatcher's popularity was at a record low. By the end it was at a record high. I'd say that makes me a cynic, but then, Leazes would say it makes me naive. No I wouldn't. Her popularity had sank from when she had been elected a few years earlier [which govt doesn't, not many] but she also had no opposition - I think Michael Foot may have been Labour Leader, who was nothing but a tramp and a lunatic. Yes, the Falklands propelled her in the popularity stakes. I think the majority of people realised the Falklands had to be done, apart from the idealistic anti-war mongs. There is no way Argentina would have negotiated over the Falklands, they wanted them back and the only way it would be done was by military means. He was in the wrong age (ie media etc) to ever have a chance of being PM but he had more intelligence and principles in his little toe than you could ever dream of. such as ? He looked a fuckin tramp at the Cenotaph man. That's it - one inappropriate choice of coat in an age when image is all that counts and a man is dismissed. Pathetic. Since its topical today, and to defend his honour, does Foot really look that scruffy in this photograph? I thought it was supposed ot be a Donkey Jacket as well? If anyone would care to point out the differences between Foot and the Odious Geoffrey behind him I'd love to hear it?

Bingo!

RIP. I put Foot in the same bracket as Benn- almost too principled and intelligent for politics. As mentioned above , I'd love to know Cameron's principles ( other than his Fix Broken Britain schtick). Jesus, the thought of Cameron in charge of Britain makes me shudder with revulsion.

Dear Dekka, Can I politely suggest you keep schtum, unless you have something sensible to say. By sensible, I mean " Mike has sold the club and we are fucking off back to Lahndon. " yours reasonably A paying customer

Leazes, Stevie, Gejon, Manc-Mag, Sima, Renton, Alex & Fish all going at it on the same page; After a brief hiatus due to the digital changeover,normal Toontastic service is resumed.

The Daily Sport. Incisive writing, really gets to the heart of Stacey's ( 36D from Essex) true feelings on the global economy. Also Revelation- C.J.Sansom.

Class pics Bring back memories. See just where this pic is showing I was stood looking from this angle, for Gazza's last appearance at SJP for us against West Ham. The ball went in the benches and some bloke kicked it back on to the pitch but as he kicked it his slip on shoe which were all the fashion went flying on to the pitch too. It landed a foot away from Gazza who picked it up, smelled it, and fell down as if he was consumed by the fumes was a priceless Gazza moment. Right in front of the corner almost. The bloke who's shoe it was would get an all-ground ban now.

One for Stevie

Sad for anyone that knows him personally, but... one less feckin property show on TV- result!

Nicely put Stefano. Now, if you could just ease off with the righteous indignation Obsessed- new Leazes tbh

They really are as well you know, they create a very uncomfortable atmosphere for the players. When I said they were shite, I didn't mean numerically though, I think 40,000 for a club of their size against someone like Fulham is a fantastic crowd.

You're right Fish, according to Wiki; "By 1150, the Order's original mission of guarding pilgrims had changed into a mission of guarding their valuables through an innovative way of issuing letters of credit, an early precursor of modern banking. Pilgrims would visit a Templar house in their home country, depositing their deeds and valuables. The Templars would then give them a letter which would describe their holdings. Modern scholars have stated that the letters were encrypted with a cipher alphabet based on a Maltese Cross; however there is some disagreement on this, and it is possible that the code system was introduced later, and not something used by the medieval Templars themselves.[4][5][6] While traveling, the pilgrims could present the letter to other Templars along the way, to "withdraw" funds from their account. This kept the pilgrims safe since they were not carrying valuables, and further increased the power of the Templars."

Were you charged 99 groats to withdraw at non Templar churches?

Bloody Russian brethren bringing down the good name of monkeykind I normally take my hat off at the table- good manners cost nowt.

Dutch sandal type clogs?/ Jesus boots?

Any Bible references to Wor Jesus as a big fella? The bloke on the Shroud is around 6'2". Isn't this well above the norm for 1st century Judea?

Whilst I am in no position to critisize anyone for puerile/crap jokes, wasn't this one discovered on the Dead Sea Scrolls? Still raised a chuckle mind
