I swear I didnt see anything from our friend Javier Tebas commenting on Chelsea's world record spending.
is it possible he did not comment it?
We've got Guardiola, and the bloke -unfortunately, after all these years- has a yank gob; somebody has to teach him the term 'nil' instead of 'ciro'. Also’Taking the stand’ Is a truly wank expression.
That is exactly the top and bottom of it.As said by many on here and i truly believe it, American/white money is seen as superior to Middle Eastern/brown money, especially among the media in this country.
Yep, a thousand millions are a few zeros shy of a billion, but thanks to yanks the metrics are wank.I'm still annoyed that they were allowed to bastardise the English language when altering the definition of what a billion is, and for that matter also a trillion and a quadrillion!
The clue is in the word for fucks sake!
Kinnell, who'd have thought Billy couldn't spell.I tend to agree with you, and wouldn't limit it only to the language. It irritates me greatly, for instance, that we now need to have Proms in Britain when our kids leave school or we have Black Friday sales, in both cases just because Americans have them. I generally write in British English in my job unless we'd specifically addressing an American client. but the -ize suffix dates back in British English to the 15th century and was used by Shakespeare so I have a fairly clear conscience with that particular point even though I mostly use -ise in personal writing.
Sometimes I forget myself, though, and can mix up my forms or occasionally even use an Americanism. I remember a few years back on here when posting about the Adam Johnson trial and mentioning that he'd be "on the stand" later in the day. The poster Coleridge, whom I haven't seen on here for ages but would like to see return, quite rightly tore a strip off me for not referring to the witness box.
The only annoying thing is that we haven’t done it. How come no-one running City was smart enough to find this loophole?
Perhaps if they had we could have signed a left back this window and maybe even Bellingham or a fast winger so we had a chance of overtaking Arsenal and keeping those rag cunts from getting too close for comfort, which is criminal when you consider how shit they were for most of the home derby this season.
and made shit up as he went alongKinnell, who'd have thought Billy couldn't spell.
