  1. Alas for the ten people in this country who actually like rugby are now misinformed.
  2. Surely a simple test for lizard DNA would clear it up.
  3. Trying to steal a dead man's identity IMO.
  4. That kind of psychological guilt-trip-that-escalates-into-a-threat pish drives me up the proverbial wall.
  5. I can't see us being solid enough defensively to get anything in this one. 2-1 to the Sheep
  6. My brain still can't process the knowledge that Man Utd paid in the region of eighty million crowns for Harold Maguire. He's not even a young prospect, he's almost 27. If he'd been called Haris Magorsky from some Ukrainian mob he'd have cost a tenth of that.
  7. I just ignore the single-club threads of teams I neither support nor wish to savagely mock.
  8. I'm sure it'll be something to do with Celtic's footballing knowledge and/or will to win. If only Sevco knew that all they need to do in order to win the league is to send their players to the library to acquire more footballing knowledge or torture their families to give them more will to win.
  9. Set her computer to use a different keyboard layout. She'll never figure that one out.
  10. I hope none of her relatives die while she's away.
  11. Health and safety grounds maybe. You wouldn't let him near a bunsen burner.
  12. Mine does that too. Since her mum died of cancer she's convinced that every little thing that feels a little bit weird and has no obvious explanation must be the same thing happening to her.
  13. My first ever job was stacking shelves in the meat aisle at Sainsbury's in Edinburgh. The only other applicant that day was a vegetarian who walked out the moment she found out what she'd be doing. I, apparently by virtue of being (a) present and (b) alive, was then "guided" through my interview by the helpful HR lady who happily wrote down nonsense answers for all of the "give me a time when you..." questions.
  14. It's been mentioned before but another factor is that with a few exceptions the big Italian clubs don't own their stadiums so can't upgrade their facilities and lose out on various forms of revenue.
  15. I never have done as it's not even slightly relevant to my job. I haven't driven to my current office in about a year.
  16. As the senior programmer at a fairly small software company I was often asked to do the technical side of interviews while the boss' father-in-law ( a very senior former director of Greggs) did the HR side. I took an unreasonable amount of joy in "welcoming" bubbly and enthusiastic young graduates with a deadpan, emotionless demeanour that would make a serial killer look friendly. One of them to whom we actually gave a job was mildly astonished to find out I wasn't actually like that every day.
  17. I for one cannot wait to see the crowd at Ross County v Portsmouth on a rainy November evening in the newly amalgamated Br(ex)itish Premiership.
