    As the great man might say:

    Someone has to have Sweden why shouldn't it be you?

    Could be worse, you could be the person that picked out Iran for the boss as they were out of the office
  • Cocking up my bet on the US Open on Bet 365.

    Inadvertently hit Justin Thomas instead of Justin Rose.

    Maybe I'll get lucky and both will come in as I've bet each way.
  • At the risk of repeating myself:
    RUBBERNECKERS!! FFS you ghoulish morons keep your eyes on the fucking road, you've barely enough intellect to conduct your vehicle between the lines on the road, don't give your tiny brain any more to do by gawping at the incident on the hard shoulder.
    What do you expect to see? How is that going to improve your journey you pervert? Worst of all you're still callously holding up the rest of us with meaningful lives to live. Look where you're going, close your mouth it will minimise that puddle of drool in your lap. Better yet, give your car to charity, tear up your driving licence, cut your carbon footprint, walk and leave the highways to fully evolved adult humans.

    I remember being in a massive restaurant in Barcelona, it was rammed with people, very lively... Yet every single person in the restaurant was being interrupted by this one American guy who had a voice like a foghorn. It was quite impressive

    Sheffield Wednesday have a restaurant in Barcelona?
  • Putin and the Prince getting their mugs on tv every time there's a goal. Let's hope it's just because Russia are the home team and we don't end up with world leader watch every goal of the tournament.

    Is Treeza going? Or Harry and Meghan?
  • Forgetting the World Cup started today, doesn’t it always start on a Friday? I’m working from home tomorrow ffs
  • BBC London news team. Can’t stand any of them. All come across as judgmental sanctimonious bellends.
  • Missing the England match on Monday because I'm accompanying the Mrs to see pearl jam at the O2. My own fault basically for saying "if you want me to see those hoary voiced washed up old tossrags, you can buy your own fecking tickets". So she did.
  • Commentators going on about Russia as the ‘lowest ranked team’ as if they don’t know that the whole ranking system is farcical.

    You've missed a Robbie Williams concert, a speech from Putin and a one sided game between the two worst sides in the tournament. Working from home tomorrow you get two matches and the opportunity to secure the best seat in the boozer for Spain vs Portugal in the evening. Stop whining woman!
  • The modern world and the obsession to the point of insanity on data yet the total, complete disregard for the information behind it.

    Without boring anyone with the details I've been banging my head, nearly physically rather than metaphorically against a twenty five year old, very well educated manager at my firm who I think could be a plant, parachuted into my line of sight to see if I will bludgeon him to death or if he will send me to an institution with his utter objectivity and inability to listen to sense and facts.

    I muck about and joke about bidding stuff and cutting corners, reality is I pride myself on the quality of my work and my diligence in understanding things and getting them right first time round as opposed to tear arsing through stuff, hitting big numbers but leaving a mess in my wake for either me to revisit and correct or some other poor sod to do and tar me as a wanker forever. This walking, talking stool sample is actually advocating that way if working, and he is not alone!

    I often go on about the modern day sub it out approach to everything but at some point someone has got to ensure the correct thing is being done regardless of who is doing it.

    I'm not even old and bitter! Or negative. Just want to do things properly

    I guarantee it's easier to smash stuff out quickly and carelessly but a million times harder to put that mess right as opposed to using a tiny bit of foresight, care and attention, getting the job done safely and properly and never having to unfuck it again.

    If anyone is a bit lost or bored, a good analogy is trying to do anything maintenance wise mechanically on a cheaply produced heap of shit Peugeot, Citroen or Renault regardless hownmany sercice stamps they have as opposed to a cared for Audi

    Ones a joy, the other is a cunt




  • That 5 years ago all three leaders of our main political parties were younger than me and that gave me a little bit of hope. Now they are all older than me and two of them considerably! We need a revolution and it's the young that must lead it.

    if she bought her own tickets then why are you going ???

    Time for you to grow some & tell her its the WC & England are playing. She can take a mate or go on her todd.

    I think I was being overly dramatic as the tickets were on sale long before the fixtures were announced

    I've owned two Audis and and one Citroen, and your analogy is spot on.
  • My dad had a Peugeot. Or should I say, my dad left his Peugeot at a garage and fed them money.

    My wife had a 206 (the one with the folding roof) and it was a heap of shit of a car.

    Was 6 months old when she got it and within 18 months of ownership, the window regulator packed up, a brake calliper needed replacing, bits of trim would fall off at regular intervals but the biggest problem was that it would suddenly go into limp home mode.

    Took it back to Peugeot about 6 times but they insisted nothing was wrong with it. Was at the point of going down the legal route with them but decided to just get rid of it whilst it still had a warranty.
  • Whoever thought putting Robbie Savage on radio 5 at 8.30am.

    I can't stand that shouty thick twat at the best of times, calling everyone 'mate' and roping in his mum, but it's too bloody early. It's always too bloody early for that arse.
