PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[searsleftpeg]

His finest hour. The 2-1 against Liverpool just below.

Also the unforgettable coffee drinking,half hearted,"guard of honour " for the dippers. Priceless.

This is rapidly turning into a non event of a week, after the giddiness of Sunday evening, into Monday. Not even any game at the weekend to lift the "meh" mood.

Mike Summerbee’s arm fell off in a dispute with the cat. I think it gave him advantage. My first and only Subbuteo set was purchased in Lewis’s department store in Piccadilly, Manchester, even though I lived in Somerset

I always preferred striker, with the real kicking action. Until their heads fell off that is. I had one for Christmas, my older brother stepped on it, breaking most of the players, after coming home from the pub Christmas afternoon......Twat.

If we are guilty, it will be headline news, if not, might get a mention on the One Show after the item about Alpaca walks

On the other hand, it’s no secret that in the interests of generating debate a presenter will often articulate a point of view with which they may not wholeheartedly agree. These issues, as I understand it, are the sorts of things more frequently discussed in production meetings than the subject of direct instruction via an earpiece.

Whilst it almost certainly overstates the case to say that a particular presenter‘s views are actually dictated for them by the producers - I think back to the infamous Sunday Supplement episode after Yaya signed, where I suspect none of the contributors on that day had the slightest need of editorial input - but equally to say that there is never any editorial input seem to overstate the case the other way.

I was watching Sky Sports a few weeks ago, with a very dull guest on waffling about Bournemouth or Brentford or whatever, and the presenter said "The producer is in my ear saying 'talk up Arsenal some more' .. so come on, talk up Arsenal". The guest looked a bit surprised, but did switch subjects to the Arse.

Please ... Oakes with an "e" if you don`t mind.

My bad, Oakiecokie.

I sit corrected.

Need this to drop if only to break up the boring ass International game week.

Why is jam made with oranges called marmalade and not orange jam?

Bit of a bum deal

Because it's foreign muck ;-)

The word "marmalade" originates from the Portuguese word "marmelada," meaning quince jam, derived from "marmelo," which means quince

I didn’t think I could love Bernardo more.

In my accountancy days a million years ago, we had a client who made a lot of money by importing overripe oranges from Spain and selling them to Robertsons, who I think were in Droylsden, for marmalade. It was so lucrative that the two partners treated themselves to new Rolls-Royces every year.

Shame you didn't ask the question then.

Subbuteo players were real men back then, you wouldn't see subbuteo players carry on with an injury like that these days.

Guessing you don’t get many supper invitations?

Chippy supper mate.

I don't know. It's a good question.

if you do happen to discover the answer can you help me out with this one: why do we refer to it as a draft in winter and a breeze in summer; when it's actually the same thing coming through the window?

 

[plattlanebenches]

Class that mate

My understanding is a draught is unwelcome whereas a breeze is welcome, hence you can get a draught excluder but I've never heard of a breeze excluder, you just shut the window.
