Popular Post Lord Snooty Posted December 11, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted December 11, 2019 (edited) "Anything to report for the match day thread?" "One of the betting companies suspended betting on Wednesday going down" "Do they know something?!" "Not really ,Sir. A few folks have clearly bet on Wednesday going down. It doesn't take much to nudge the markets to a point where the bookies stop and have a look at it" "Yes, no doubt the grunters." "More likely Wednesday fans, hoping to soften the blow should it happen." "Soften the blow? Soften the bloody blow!" "Apparently so,Sir" "How do they work that out then!?" "Well, when things go bad, at least they have a bit of brass in their pockets. You know how some people are,Sir. "I know Stubbs, but deary me,making profit and money out of misery" "Speaking of money and misery, your polling card arrived this morning,Sir" "Pop it on the fire Stubbs" "You're not voting,Sir?" "Certainly not. The whole thing is a fiasco" "The fiasco can't be changed if you don't vote ,Sir" "Balls to the vote. Sick of hearing about the damn thing." "But you always vote,Sir" "Not this time." "One the one side you've got Corbyn,who's taken so long to come up with any statement on Brexit that his neighbours were counting the milk bottles on his step worried he'd corked it! Can you imagine him in high office? It'd be like sending your Grandpa in to bat. He'd be crushed beneath the heel of International finance within the week! Besides, he's no chance of getting in anyway, even with the students." "Why's that,Sir?" "Because Stubbs, old cork, folks in this country like to know we retain the power to end the world and burn our children and grandchildren to shadow ashes and dust with the push of a button and he ... he wants rid of them!" "That's not exactly what he said,Sir." "I know what he said, he said he'd keep Trident but not the warheads. That's like sticking the poker we keep by the back door in case the tinkers come calling in the loft out of the way so we can't get hold of it quick enough if we need it!" "So, Tory as usual ,Sir" "No. Because opposite Corbyn, you've got Johnson. I don't agree with Corbyn but his voting record shows he's never changed tack. Johnson on the other hand, changes his mind more often than I change my pants. On about giving us more Nurses, Dibble, Firemen. It was him who took them away! He's gone through the whole campaign with the dishevelled, and bewildered look of a victim at the end of a Die Hard film being walked away by a medic as the credits roll. The mans blustered his way through, swerved nearly every interview and debate and done nothing but shout "Get Brexit done" like a demented Jim Henson Fraggle. The man is a dangerous imbecile. He's lied to the Queen, FFS! Her Majesty! No sod knows what to do. You got half the Labour lot think the party isn't right wing enough and on the other side you've got two ex Tory Prime ministers including John Major telling folks to go the other way! It's like a bloody bad trip." "Sir, I must say-" " Y'know what's done this don't you? Bloody Brexit. It's the most divisive thing I can ever remember." "Well if Brexit is the cause,Sir, then perhaps Lib Dems for you, they've have said they'll stop it" "Don't start me bloody Swinson! Stopping BREXIT whatever happens?! She'd cause a bloody civil war! She's a lunatic, a lunatic obsessed with her own ideas but forgets what they actually are. Keeps banging on about old pigshagger Cameron ruining the country having the referendum, forgetting that she was one of the names attached to a Lib Dem call for a referendum in 2008 when the Students Judas Clegg was in charge!! Short bloody memories. And I'll tell you another thing, she's forever banging on about how she's 'campaigned tirelessly to save our environment” when her voting record shows she supported the badger cull, fracking, HS2, and voted to sell off public forests! Including the one that surrounds this bloody house!" "Sir, do you not think that perhaps you're falling into the trap of looking at this as a popularity contest between the individuals? It's not really about Johnson, Corbyn, Swinson is it? It's about the party policies." "No, because the policies mean buggerall in the Internet age, Stubbs, bugger all. You can read the literature till its coming out of your ears, but no other bugger wilI be" "Well they should. They should be open to finding what's in line with their thinking." "I don't know why parties waste time and money with manifestos. No sod reads them....except the people who are already going to vote for them!" "Ok, maybe people can't be bothered to read them. But like I said before if you take the individual personalities out of it and do this test .... https://www.whoshouldyouvotefor.com/ .....you'll get a better idea of-" "No. I'm not doing it. I'm not voting." "You're definitely not voting,Sir?" "Well, unless the bloody Guido Fawkes party are on there.... no!" "Well I'll be voting,Sir. You can't make change if you don't vote" "You can't make change anyway with the first past the post system ,Stubbs. Your vote won't make a difference!" "It might do if you're not voting the other way,Sir. " "Who are you voting for?" "I'll be voting for one of the ones that won't have me working until I'm 75,Sir" "You swine! Get that bloody Polling card out of the fire, you treacherous commie! You belong to me!" ------------------------------------------------------- DERBY - V - WEDNESDAY Wednesday 11th December, 2019 19:45 (UK) Baseball Ground Lego Bowl Ground THE TEAM NEWS Manager Phillip Cocu has no new injury worries as Derby attempt to extend an eight-game unbeaten home run.

offalyowl Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 Brilliant as always snoots but I thought it not very wise to bring politics into football but as I'm not British I won't comment on the vote so I predict a 2-1 win and cement our place in the playoffs Uto 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll probably wake to find the thread deleted! Point is though Whether Blue, Red, Yellow or Green don't waste your vote people. We don't always get the result we want.... whichever side we're on. Democracy takes some stick but it's better than the alternative.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edmontonowl Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 Glad to hear you change your undies on a regular basis m'lud. Although I do believe I may have seen Stubbs refer to a dislike of scrubbing skiddies Still it does restore my faith in the class system knowing that we all need to fart whether an upper or a lower. Anyhoo a good solid score draw will suffice on the day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will be getting us extra sanctions from the EFL for bringing politics into sport Milord at this rate. Anyway, I’m sick of the election and politics and tonight’s match is a little diversion from watching the lunatic party leaders chasing round like the headless chickens they are. A draw tonight will be good. Got to keep stacking those points up. Up the Owls! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
latemodelchild Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 Worth it for the word dibble. Not heard that in ages. I'd normally take a draw away. As it's away at Derby I'd snatch your arm off for one. And probably take your shoulder and a good chunk of your upper torso with it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

striker Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 Derby better at home, but we should be full of confidence. A winnable game (as most are), but my head says it's a fixture which we struggle with, can Wednesday really win 3 in a row, can we really move up to 4th and start to look like challenging? As usual, I let my heart overrule head 1-2 Wednesday win. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
