Title: Brightons Carling Cup Tie. Post by: herthab on Monday, October 27, 2008, 08:54:02 When do they play?
I need some ideas for an excuse not to go on a 2 day training course if they lose and we play them on November 11th. I've run out of dead grandparents......... Title: Re: Brightons Carling Cup Tie.

Title: Re: Brightons Carling Cup Tie. Post by: herthab on Monday, October 27, 2008, 09:09:38 Do I risk it and leave it until after 5th? Or do I set the groundwork now?

Post by: Samdy Gray on Monday, October 27, 2008, 09:44:59 I can't see them beating Derby, so I'd start laying the groundwork.

Think I'll book holiday and hope my boss doesn't remember about the course..... Title: Re: Brightons Carling Cup Tie.

Sounds like he's already "killed them off" though Dell so barring a Dr Who-style grandparent regeneration scenario (and let's face it there are few bosses that would go for that one), it sounds like this is a dead duck.Title: Re: Brightons Carling Cup Tie.

Could be wrong. Title: Re: Brightons Carling Cup Tie. Post by: Samdy Gray on Monday, October 27, 2008, 13:03:19 I think the game is scheduled for the 12th and if they win it will be put back again. Could be wrong. No, you're right. It's what I said but just in a less convoluted way. Title: Re: Brightons Carling Cup Tie. Post by: Tails on Monday, October 27, 2008, 20:12:07 Where's the training course? Pay someone to accidentally set it on fire, meaning it has to be cancelled and you have to take it off work because you were traumatised by the fire and need time for personal reflection.
No flaws in there whatsoever. Title: Re: Brightons Carling Cup Tie. Post by: tans on Monday, October 27, 2008, 22:31:45 Or just book sick?!?
