Hold on…there’s a strong likelihood that SunderLLLLand will have to play Wrexham next year. 
 

Didn’t the owners only get involved with Wrexham because they watched the mackem documentary and saw there was money to be made? 
 

Class how the mackems have stood still :lol:

They were discussing the possibility of Wrexham away next season on there when up pops Keith with this scintillating anecdote:

so many words and yet never looked like reaching an interesting or amusing conclusion.

That's what talking to my father-in-law is like. Really long stories about a job he hasn't done for 20 years, and genuinely we'll be 10 minutes into one of these things where he's described in detail the drive to Scotland, the walk from the car to the office, including incidental details about "and if you look right, you can see this other building"... Bit of detail about that building, cos why the fuck wouldn't I want to know about that, and I suddenly have this crisis where I can't remember what we were talking about that made him set off on this fucking odyssey, where this ramble is going to end, and how the fuck I'm supposed to react when it peters out to nothing. 

 

It's horrendous. He basically wants to tell me a story about his old job every time I see him, and it doesn't matter whether it's relevant to current conversations, he'll just go "well that's a bit like when I used to work at...." and off we fucking go. 

 

They all end with me going "Ah right", and then turning to my wife and the mother in law and trying to get into their conversation. He must think I fucking hate him.

Mine is exactly the same. I can take about 2 mins before I zone out then when the conversation stops I just smile awkwardly because I have no idea what my response should be.

 

The grand kids and his kids just magically disperse when he starts a story and I’m left alone in the room with him.

Same story. Wife and mother in law know what he's like and don't want to hear his shit so I get isolated with him.
