Was it? I don't see how Germany invading east and carving up Poland between themselves and the Soviet Union directly threatened Britain at all. Was Chamberlain also correct in securing "peace in our time" for the price of selling out the Sudentenland with the Munich Agreement in 1938? This is coming from an Irishman with no great love of the British military but surely you can see that certain circumstances call for military action even when your country is not directly threatened?

I think we're being a little harsh on the poor cop here. Can you hear that moaning little twat with the camera? I think he showed a great level of restraint not to shoot the little fucker.

I can't quote you figures but Im pretty sure that the cost of administiring the death penalty in America is substantially more than the cost of keeping the convict in prison for life.

First time? Impressive; I was just concentrating on finding the damn thing.

Would the FA approve though? What would be in it for them? I suppose you could maybe do all that particular year's offenders at half-time of the FA Cup Final but it does present some logistical difficulties. Your ideas are great in theory though.

drunk, useless, pathetic

I downed a load of vodka before the meal at mine; ended up quite inebriated so I thought it would be a good idea to have an eating competition with one other boy (whilst my date who barely knew me looked on disgusted which I also lost). I then retreated outside to sleep in the bushes until the whole thing was over before emerging from my siesta to throw the remnants of the breakfast that was being prepared at everyone in my year. I thought it was quite funny at the time. Not one of my more sucsessful nights. Ps: And no, I certainly did not get the girl that magical night (although I heard every other fucker in the place did.)

But surely these fans are now indispensable to the club as sad as it is to say. I have no doubt that Parry and probably Purslow prefer these casual day-tripper fans who can take or leave Liverpool pending whether they are the flavour of the month or not than the match-going loyal fans who will support the club through think and thin. These fans and their monetary support will always be there; it's the dickheads who spunk all their money on sheit in Liverworld 1 or 2 times a year and identify with the club the same way they might identify with Nike over Adidas that the club is more eager to get through the turnstiles. People vent spleen about the Sky Generation football fan and how the Mancs sold their soul to epitomise the new-age fan whilst denigrating Liverpool for not taking advantage of the vast business and commercial opportunites opening up in the '90s. The club has gone some way to change that by cashing in on our worldwide prestige and our colourful history and it is that pretige and some dickheads glee in attaching themselves to our glorious history that allows us to compete in the same ballpark as the Mancs without the benefits of a rich sugardaddy (Chelsea, Man City). Unfortunately, we can't have it both ways. The day-trippers and the money they bring in are an integral part of the club and our ability to compete whether we like it or not.

"It smells like a kebab; like a kebab Pete!"

Some of them are fucken brilliant. My personal favourite would have to be the alien one, how the guy got through that whole spiel without bursting out laughing is beyond me. Honourable mention also to the supposed gay student who advised him to leave his handbag at home. That was a fucken laugh; I think Pete's feelings were actaully hurt at the end of it he had bought it that much and emphasised so much with the problem.

I don't think he meant it in any deragotary context. I've heard that expression many times; I wouldn't think that dinnermashers would take any offence to it.

It's funny, I was actually going to say him myself but then thought do people actually consider him a national treasure so I didn't bother. I agree with you though.

I bought a belt once in the Primark on Church St. that I didn't try on and of course, it turned out to be far too big for me. I saw the massive que up at the customer service desk and had no receipt anyway so just swapped my belt for one of a more appropiate size. Im a little bit ashamed of this one and am probably risking a mass negging but since we're being honest here... I regularly steal the newspaper; just put it underneath my arm when Im paying for something else and Im away. In my defence; my newspaper of choice is part of the News International Stable so my money isn't making it's way to Murdoch's coffers which is a nice wie bonus as part of the deal.

Mass, laze around for a while, then dinner, then copious amounts of booze followed by a boogie in the disco, wake up drunk on St. Stephen's Day in random house, hit pub in same clothes, repeat (without mass or lazing around complimented by various though by no means daily clothing changes) until January 2nd or so. Eventually succumb to the fear, don't look anyone in the eye for two days or so. Search for my lost soul whilst recovering.

204 Euro here, BOO YAH! Im off on my travels soon so the dream will soon be coming to an end.

Surely he has a point though? Perhaps you would defend his right to defend himself against the first wave of the Wet Bandits in the first one but was he justified when he escaped on the winch device into the treehouse and then proceeded to run back to the house in order to inflict more misery on Pesci et al? Surely that wasn't a proportionate response to the threat? Would Kevin McAllister have faced charges for not going straight to raise the alarm when he had the chance? What about the old man who hit them with the shovel? So many questions.

Just respoding to a neg there Aveez. Im absoutley loaded now but I was ojnly giving my opinion like. Im Irish by the way so wouldn't be ablre to give my opinion even if I wanted to. I don't think i said anything too offensive there, didi I?

He didn't. His previous fight before Valuev was in November 08. I like Haye and think he is great for the Heavyweight division but surely his efforts against Valuev shouldn't have seen him win the BBC award. Surely Ennis should have got it.

Hey, there's no need for that. You just had a difference of opinion, no need to abuse him like that. Plus, I actually think he has a point about Cowell being the consumnate business man re. the X-Factor model; giving his acts hours of free publicity and promotion on prime time television with the reams of column inches that they produce in the process. Doesn't change the fact that the music is generally ole namby-pamby middle of the road sheit. However, there are far more offensive things in the charts at the moment than Boyle in fairness; I hope she milks her few years of fame for what their worth. She will be in "Whatever happened to?" articles five years from now so hopefully she can rake it in now while she can.

Yeah, I agree with you; he shouldn't have been anywhere near it. I suppose the PFA award qualified him for it but really he would be more suited to winning some sort of life-time achievement or something similar at this stage of his career. Also, I was on the BBC site there. Look at this. "ith the public choosing their favourite from the shortlist of 10 by phone on the night, Giggs received 29.4% of the vote (151,842 votes) ahead of Button (18.74% - 96,770) and Ennis (15.58% - 80,469)" That's ridiculous the percentage the won it by. The Manc fans must have organised a campaign or something to ensure he won it by getting all the fuckers to vote. Cheeky fucks! We'll just have to do the same when Stevie gets nominated eventually.

Your preaching to the choir mate. Im just saying that we shouldn't be that suprised that a player who plays for one of the most popular teams in the country attracted the most votes in a not particularly outstanding British sporting year. If Carragher had been nominated, who would everyone on this board vote for? He also has a higher profile than any of the other contenders having been playing for the Mancs since '92 and hasn't generally attracted the ire of many fans from rival teams over the years from what I can remember. Also, if Giggs had burst upon the scene last year and produced that exact same season (08/09) that he did as a burgenoing 18 year old, he wouldn't have been within an arse's roar of winning the PFA award. The amount of games he started was irrelevant in the eyes of the players and in the eyes of the voting public as well. The PFA award was awarded as a sort of life-time achievement award by the players and I can only imagine that the public who voted for him harboured similar setiments to the players who voted him as PFA player of the year.

What are you talking about? It's voted for by the public. Also, in a non-Olympic sporting year with no particularly world renowned legendary deats by any British athletes; is it any way shocking that Giggs attracted the most votes when he plays for one of the most popular teams in the country? Haye? Haye had one fight this year for fucks sake which he spent dancing around a giant cumbersome sloth landing a couple of pot shots for 12 rounds. Who lest we forget stole a decision just 12 months ago against a 46 year old past-it Evander Holyfield. Personally, I would have gave it to Ennis but am not at all suprised to see Giggs win it and don't see how any people here can be either.

Hangovers are all in the mind; just go for a few pints for fucks sake and you'll be as right as rain. Failing that; go for a half hour run; you'll feel grand after it. I don't so much mind the physical effects of a hangover; I don't really get them; it's the madness a day or two after the bender that drives me to distraction. Buying a newspaper in my local newsagent and trying to figure out how much change to give the poor man behind the counter is near enough to put me to tears.

Oh, you little devil you! Your talking about having SEX with her on a CLIFF aren't you?

No, I really don't; please, do tell. Also, why are you shouting CLIFF at us? It works just as well in lower case I'd imagine.
