Weren't these the ones calling us cheats for buying our way out of Div 4?

I think it's very telling.  Look at the likely winners of each of the four divisions: Chelsea, Bournemouth, Bristol C & Shrewsbury.  What have they all got in common?  To a greater or lesser degree, they will all have bought their respective titles.

Chelsea and Bournemouth both punching well above their respective weights via cash injections from the Russian petro-chemical industry.  Bristol's title will come courtesy of Steve Lansdown and his £12m per annum cash injection, financed by anyone with an ISA or savings product from Hargreaves Lansdown.  And Shrewsbury have basically done what we did in the same position a few years ago...spent beyond their means in the short term to bounce back.

Never seen an episode of it, actually I've seen one with a girl and a dog, but that's it. I always avoid it, which I'm pretty happy about. The masters are on bbc2, set up for the night.

I don't know,  you can beat a keeper and then fluff the shot, surely?

ha yeah i spose.i was talking about that annoying thing when a shot hits the woodwork and the commentator says "it beat the keeper".So a shot that goes past the keeper but ends up 10 yards wide,also "beats the keeper" does it?  Random irritation for me,just like the "in and around the penalty spot".How do you get in a penalty spot?

When commentators say a striker has 'hit it too well' after a shot is saved, or narrowly misses the goal. Erm, no he didn't.

My mrs acting like a spoiled brat because I said no to getting another dog. We have 2 dogs, 2 house rabbits, a tortoise and numerous hamsters, but she doesn't get that we haven't room or additional costs to fund another dog. Grow up for Christ sake!

Funding the dog, may be cheaper in the long run than funding the divorce....not letting women get their own way can be costly.

Say to her she can get another dog if she kills one of the others or the new hounds equal weight in hamsters/rabbits etc.

That seems fair.

Say she can have another dog if you can have another girlfriend.
