  1. Manchester United..........for a while anyway.
  2. EW was for the first 4. Would have been equal to 5/1.Since when have I become AM?

This horse ran last night over fences at Down Patrick. It's one that got away as I bet on it to win at 12/1 which BF upped to 20/1. I should have gone EW as it finished 4th but I panicked as I got a text about it seconds before the off.
  4. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/20928565 This is handy if you want to be updated about your team.

Scrolling through this thread I wondered after reading this (not for too long), when did it become about six people crossing the road.
  6. Establishments which fly the St.Georges Cross flag and leave until it gets filthy and falling apart. It shows more disrespect to it than any respect intended in the first place. Not that it's my flag, but if want to show who you are then do it justice.
  7. On Facebook this evening I saw 4 relatives of mine had posted videos doing the challenge, much to my surprise . My brother who has prostate cancer, the partner of another brother, whose brother died two weeks ago from cancer (she was giving her donation to a cancer charity), a cousin and a nephew. I was just glad to see my brother looking in good form given I haven't seen him in a couple of years and may never do again. So as silly as it it, I give it a 'like'.

You don't appear to have a concept of clarity alice. You may do if you read the post you comment about first. However I'm not sure you are particularly interested in clarity.
  9. Out of the blue I know, but I feel really sorry for Sevilla. They always seem to get a decent team and then have to sell their best players. If they want fair play in Spain they should divide the TV money like they do here. It's virtually a two team league each season, apart from the last one.

But perhaps unfortunate rather than > tasteless. Just imagine if what was the old Seven Eleven on LL was called the Nine Eleven. Now that would be unfortunate if it was still around.
  11. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/competitions/premier-league/11054725/Are-big-matches-really-that-important-in-deciding-who-wins-the-Premier-League-title.html On that subject it seems the team who does better against the top teams wins the league. Chelsea were an exception. http://www.soccerstats.com/homeaway.asp?league=england_2014 United did well away from home last season if you look at the stats. So apart from an awful home record their season might have ended quite differently.
  12. I found it boring and didn't watch it to the end.
  13. Will this possible sighting affect house prices in ED?
  14. As in it's the same Mackay that Palace seemed keen to give the job to. Being wise after an event is not being wise.
  15. It's rude to point Niall. I can say that to you as it's a habit of mine telling people with your name what's right and wrong.
  16. I realised that. But how unless you handed back the phone with the texts still on it? ETA It seems it was from Moody's phone.
  17. How does an employer get your text messages (the content) or how does anyone for that matter?

Been to plenty of underage games down the years but not to see the 1st team.
  19. Unless I forget, if I'm shopping it's usually with our own bags which have been reused countless times. I just see plastic bags as a waste to be avoided. It may well be helping the environment using less of them but my gut feeling is that we're just bloody lazy not to bring our own bags if we are going shopping. It also may do some good in the short term. In the long term the planet will die because the sun will. I suppose it's a case of how comfy the place is while it's still here.
  20. The term 'side return'. It's an extension (I've looked it up). It's on the side of a house. Ok. But what's 'return'? I don't know why this annoys me but it does.

I heard a United fan phone in to a station the other day. His thoughts were that now Fergie and Gill have left as such, everyone who was left were just commerically orientated staff including Woodward. Don't have the connections they used to have hence the problems in buying players. He may have a point and the next ten days will tell. I wonder how far down the pecking order Rojo was in terms of who we would like to buy? I've heard mixed things about him. Most South Americans worth their salt I think gravitate to Spain where the culture and climate are preferable to Manchester. I do hope United can buy at least a couple of quality players before time runs out.........

  23. NATO summit? What's that about James?
  24. Thanks Applespider. My post was an effort to accumulate information as quickly as possible. His luggage still hasn't been found. He has travel insurance but my instinct is to go for the airline even if it takes longer. It takes 21 days for it to be declared lost. Having sent them a message via their FB page I got a call today from Abu Dhabi saying they will chase up the bag people. They kindly told me that they would be happy to pay $40 a day for three days so he could buy essentials. Last year returning from the same place his flight was cancelled in Abu Dhabi. It took some time but I eventually got him the maximum compensation of 600 Euros + the cost of an additional flight. They don't like it though.
