  1. Ghana? https://muse.jhu.edu/article/230952/pdf In precolonial Ghana, slaves were a commodity and inheritable; their progeny maintained slave status.
  2. Lost their unearned nepotistic gainz and had to work their way up a meritocracy - does the evil English empire have no limits
  3. Carlisle 1-3 Wycombe Usual. Couple of clangers to give the game away. Apparently the second one was really bad but from the halfway line it looked like a scramble after a clearance banged off a Wycombe player straight back into the goalmouth Our goal looked good and their third carved us open well Didn't hang around for the end of season standing ovations, the players can applaud me next season 1 more goal conceded needed to reach 80, 1 more defeat next week to get to 30
  4. Best charlatans song - almost funk like bass
  5. SNP: "Mr Murrell is no longer an SNP member and any attempt to drag the SNP into individual criminal matters is blah blah blah blah blah etc bollox n shite etc"
  6. Yeh he's got the police just where he wants them now
  7. Good job we have the greens in gubment, they'll stop this sort of thing https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-68841141 Oh.
  8. Carlisle 0-1 Blackpool Went behind in the first minute and sacked it off after that The most noteworthy event according to commentary was a massive hailstorm at the end that soaked everyone not under cover Will give a real live report myself from the Wycombe match next week, last home match in league one - woo
  9. The trouble is that owing millions has the tang of "If you owe the bank $100, that's your problem. If you owe the bank $100 million, that's the bank's problem". It's so far removed from people's experience that it washes over. Thousands, on the other hand... It's like how most people think the worst thing Bojo ever did was have a party during lockdown, rather than piss billions up the wall on test n track - https://www.politico.eu/article/nhs-test-trace-program-coronavirus-pandemic-parliament-report/
  10. I should start a countdown thread
  11. The latest possible date for a UK general election is 28 January 2025 (and they're heading for a group hiding and individual redundancy so they'll drag it out as long as possible) This means there is now no more than 300 days (293 actally) until SIR KEIR STARMER KC PM
  12. I thought he was reffing the media's pile-on on Stanley Johnson for his COVID walkabouts
  13. Zombie Carlisle United carry on with a 1-0 win at Cheltenham - now on 30 points Think our lowest total in 3pts for a win era is 34 - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Carlisle_United_F.C._seasons - though that was a 42 game season
  14. Should see the rush to say "I'll get the next lot" when we know we're going to a spoons next
  15. Wragg's the same as Matheson - it's not the initial stupidity that hangs you, it's what you do afterwards to wriggle out of it I've just had to sit through 2 hours of powerpoint slides about protecting PII and how awful it would be if we lost someone's shoe size information and this p***k's handing out his mates' details
  16. Lost 3-1 at home to Lincoln 5 games left, can only get to 42 points, so we just need one of the four teams above us to reach 43 and then we're down regardless of what we do Given Burton are on 40 in the last safe place we're down if we lose on Saturday, or they win on saturday, or we both draw And even that's just putting it off till the week after really with the other teams in the relegation places not far behind Burton, but I expect to be relegated in 5 days
  17. Think their goalie should have done better with Mellish's first volley, but his second was right in the bottom corner His performances are either shite or brilliant, not much in-between (google "jon mellish own goal" for a wide array of examples, but he was our top scorer one season)
  18. Bloody hell I'd say more but currently on holiday by mistake
  19. Piece have a new place open on argyle street nr the station, no more expensive than subway
  20. Can see heading going from football - never enjoyed doing it myself to be honest, usually cause I managed to make it a facer more often than not
  21. Let ourselves down by only gifting a point to the opposition rather than three Like you say, could sense it coming, deja vu from about 20 other matches where we've done it
  22. Owen likes to rail against those in power, it's his schtick and his livelihood. If he stays as a member of the party about to gain power that income stream dries up. This way he can remain in permanent opposition, it's the Corbyn way
  23. Hello, my name is Vladimir, I lend you plenty roubles yes? You just pose with nice lady with strap on for collateral, I wire it straight over
