  1. Just had a read about these, they’re a decent club, string working class support. traditionally Anti fascist, and have had a resurgence following a period in the doldrums, previous to which they were the dominant club in Belgium. They also have Mac Allister’s brother playing for them, Kevin, who was named after Macaulay Culkin’s character in Home Alone. I shit thee not All of which tells me… 5-0 to us.
  2. Speaking of French toilets, I’ve never seen a “squat and drop” style dumping station anywhere in the Uk, until this morning. It’s even got a jetwash for your nipsy.
  3. I’m going to go out on a limb and say that this small-faced gonk, pictured at the protests in the City Centre this weekend, travelled there from an SR postcode. ( btw Gemmill, was your old man still “active” when your parents split up? Have you met your half brother?)
  4. This is a rare shot of Callum the Staffy when he’s not in his pram, aye?
  5. You missed the perfect opportunity to make this a Top Tips style post. 5/10, must do better.
  6. I was staying in Yorkshire the other week and I asked the maid where I could find towels. Ended up at Yorkshire Bird of Prey Sanctuary.
  7. I still marvel at his finest moment for us…
  8. Depends if you have an ID card, mein herr.
  9. I genuinely thought my dad was mates with him. We were walking down Grey st. and saw the bow-legged bugger striding up towards us, as we passed my Dad said “ How Mac!” he replied “ Awright mate!” My dad went from “magic Dad” to “Supermac’s mate” as far as I was concerned, and told every fucker that would listen for the next week or two. I was 5-6, so this would’ve been in ‘74.
  10. I’m opposed to mandatory ID carrying as a point of principle, but the points about so many people already submitting identifiers online regularly does weaken the argument against this. It’s a slippery slope to “ papers please”.
  11. Wolfy wouldn’t countenance any of this because he hadn’t seen it WITH HIS OWN EYES!!!
  12. It was, and there’s evidence it filled relatively quickly, but it was way before any modern humans were about, I think. (Just looked it up, 5.3 million years ago. ) Edit; You must have posted whilst I was typing this shit out It still blows my mind that the North Sea was land a relatively short time ago, within the human era.
  13. I think Howe will make some changes, but not wholesale ones. We are not winning the CL, our presence in it could likely negatively affect our final league position, as we’re not yet there squad-wise to be able to fight on all fronts, so we might not qualify via the league. This is our shortest, fastest route to guaranteed European football next year, it’s over and done just over halfway through the season, and we’ve just won it. Eddie will be treating this as seriously as any other game imo, which I’d guess means another red from the bench for TOT
  14. This is one of the parts of Graham Hancock’s crack that does actually make sense, and has some independent academic confirmation of it happening. One glacier boffin described how ice acts when it melts- he gave the example of a block of ice a few feet square. On top of it, the melt water runs off the edges fairly quickly, but towards the middle, it pools. As the melting continues, the central pool increases in size and depth, whereas the edges of the block remain fairly intact. This is due to the pool raising the temperature of the ice below it faster than the meltwater at the block’s edges, which runs off , or later, back towards the pool, keeping the ice temperature at the edge lower. Eventually, you’ve got a big, deep pool of water being held in by ever thinning walls of ice, which inevitably collapse at some point, releasing the pool in one go. He said this happens regardless of scale, and mentioned the Laurentide Ice Sheet which covered North America. It was up to 2.5 miles thick in parts and would have collapsed in the manner described several times during its retreat at the end of the last ice age, with huge, almost unimaginable floods flowing down what is now the coarse of the Mississippi. There is clear geological evidence of this having happened. Anyone in its way would have been wiped out, obviously, but anyone who wasn’t in its path that witnessed it would have seen something utterly insane, and would most likely have made sure the story was told to future generations. This happened all across the globe at the end of the last Ice Age, and Hancock speculated, fairly reasonably tbh, that this would explain the existence of Great Flood myths throughout ancient cultures across the world.
  15. I think Clark’s was on Northumberland St? Cant remember exactly as I was only about 6 or 7.
  16. Were they the pants with like a 5 button high waistband, and fuck-off big flares? If so, aye, I wanted them too, only to get the same reply from Ma Fist as the jumper
