I never knew that. It's a small world.
I don't suppose you were a member of the Greengate Harriers? 12 o'clock Buzzer, like sh*t off a shovel, down to the Gardeners Arms.

They started pulling pints about 20 mins before the buzzer and stockpiled them under the bar. It was 42 mins for lunch.

I was based at Chadderton but we were corporate. 1984 to 1987 I was there I think. I was ASTMS union secretary for Chadderton for a couple of years and we got invited to the Apprentice Presentation evening. The chap who managed the apprentices (his name was Harry I think but can't remember his surname) made the mistake of telling me and my union chairman beforehand that he had new false teeth and he was worried they'd. fall out while he was speaking. Me and Paul spent the whole of his speech creased up trying not to laugh out loud watching his efforts to hang onto his teeth.

I thought it was some sort of elaborate joke when I got my offer letter and the hours of work were listed as 8:12 to 4:36 with 42 minutes for lunch.

Yeah, it was odd the times. We started at 7.30 and finished at 4.12. Never found out why it was like that.

I left at the end of 86. Worked on Bay 3 748/ATP with Nigel Bramall as the manager. Oliver Heath was the works manager.

Oliver heath was nicknamed "crazy horse" he made the Sun newspaper for sacking one of the newspaper sellers outside the factory gates even though he didn't actually work at bae.
Chadd was an incredible place to work, some real characters and there was nothing you couldn't get there.

How Man City's fight to fend off spending restrictions is ripping the Premier League apart

Premier League clubs have held talks to reconfigure rules related to losses and income - with the meeting necessary after City's lawyers convinced a panel that aspects of the regulations were in breach of competition law.

And here is something completely different....

We're indirectly responsible for ripping the Premier League apart?

I am absolutely lost for words. The shite way we've been treated by the Premier League? Yeah ok then.

That cnut Rob Harris. Last seen asking Pep if he was being paid via a secret account, when we won the double in 2019

Reminds me that when Wardle was chairman, Alistair Mackintosh was CEO and Paul Tyrrell was the Communications head. An insider told me that Tyrrell's job was to big-up Mackintosh.

As a result, every article you saw where Mackintosh was mentioned or quoted used the phrase "City's highly-regarded chief executive...". It seems the PL and cartel's media teams have issued a similar instruction to its client journalists that every mention of Manchester City must include "115 charges" somewhere.

I always wondered who regarded him so highly. Now I know, it was himself.
