That said, I've always thought he was a weird bloke
Russel Brand a bit rapey? No **** Sherlock. The bloke is the most obvious sex case I’ve ever seen apart from you.Quote:

{My French mate from there, who had a Manc gf, had come over to visit some weeks previously and I took him to the home leg. We lost 3-0 and afterwards the cünt said "That's good. I support Utd in the EPL." Wouldn't have taken him had I known.}
Anyway, we won 5-1. It was a small shop with about 5 PCs. There were two young black schoolboys in their uniforms and me on headphones. I was nervy during the 2nd half, as we were only 2-1 up. Then we scored 3 in the last 5 mins. Each goal saw me get increasingly excited and I got told off by the white French lady owner for jumping up and shouting "Get the fück in" when the fourth or fifth went in.
I only used to lurk back then. Only posted when I wanted a radio stream.
But as there were so many posts, even during the night, my daily lurk could take 30-60 mins.
'Spoons was crowded, nowhere to sit! And the demographic . . . . . . . . . . . .Quote:

Back at Stansted for the third time this year in December, will check it out then :eat: but without the cutlery obvs.Quote:

During the 2010-11 Ashes - the won Berni cursed us for - I went to the Sydney Morning Herald website for a bit of schadenfreude and found hundreds of England fans had beaten us to it. One particularly vocal poster had called himself Douglas Jardine.
By the time of the following {home} Ashes, the SMH had stopped us posting on the cricket pages.
