PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[halfcenturyup]

The first victim of Tim Lewis' removal is.... anchoring

It doesn't say much for the robustness of the Premier League that one man can champion an unpopular measure as far as a vote at the AGM only to see it fail, or be removed entirely, after he leaves. Seriously, the PL needs a much stronger executive.

On an unrelated note, congratulations on your new role. I shall have to start listening more to your opinions on where we are with the case now you are officially part of the inner circle :)

Hmmm 'scotch cow'...

"Scottish" is the correct adjective to use for people and things from Scotland, while "Scotch" is now primarily used for specific products like Scotch whisky and Scotch beef, and using it for people can be considered offensive. People from Scotland are called "Scots" (noun) or "Scottish" (adjective).

Scottish

• Adjective for people: Use "Scottish" when referring to people from Scotland (e.g., "a Scottish person," "Scottish culture").
  
  
• Adjective for things: Use "Scottish" for most things (e.g., "Scottish law," "Scottish history").

Scotch

• • Adjective for specific products: Use "Scotch" for legally protected products originating from Scotland, such as:
    • • Scotch whisky
      • Scotch beef
      • Scotch broth
      • Scotch tape

So is a cow a product or a thing?

Well it's definitely not a person so it most certainly won't be offended.

Scotch beef is made from cows, brown or otherwise, and is often an ingredient in scotch broth.

If the lawyer, accountant and mathematician were being more specific and had referred to the breed of cow, say aberdeen angus, then they would have more correctly used the word scottish.

Is semantics a new branch of mathematics?

Here's a questio that needs answering: if a cow becomes beef, and a pig becomes pork, why does a chicken remain chicken?

Fucking mental, this.

Cos it's fowl

Here's a questio that needs answering: if a cow becomes beef, and a pig becomes pork, why does a chicken remain chicken?

Bœuf, Porc, Mouton, Coq

Probably comes from the age of the Normans where the rich spoke French. The lower classes, Old English speaking, would have eaten chicken and other fowl more often due to cost.

At the age of 14 i was already having to study Alevel maths at nightschool because i was above+beyond very accomplished at it, so i do have some understanding of mathematicians and may well have gone on to forge a career out of it had i not discovered girls and (as you say) alcohol in excessive quantities, which steered me in the direction of archeology and foreign digs, where both could easily be found, although i've no idea what that has to do with scotch cows or 115.

Keep digging, you might find the original charges document.

They're discussing trigonometry.

I’ve just been offered 8 legs of venison for £80

Is that too dear?

 

[GaudinoMotors]

No idea mate. And I think Stefan has already stated (or at least posited) that these don’t necessarily require unanimity…

It would need to be unequivical though.
Difficult if there's a dissenting judgment I'd imagine.

There are at least 115 separate charges. Each one will need 3 separate decisions or is this incorrect?

 

[Roy Munson]

It's definitely attention grabbing stuff.

Glad you like the username it brings together 2 things that have given me enjoyment in times gone by; watching (the other) Kevin play and reading fantasy books

I stumbled across this the other day. I had no idea Steve Jackson and Ian Livingstone were both from Manchester.
