    Roland calls it tea.

    Shit-tea
  • I think the 'tea postings' are to cover that embarrassing time - you know after someone gets told off - and no one really knows where to look or what to say :neutral:

    The three meals you can eat each day are either breakfast, lunch and dinner, in that order; or breakfast, lunch and supper, in that order.

    Dinner is never served in the middle of the day.

    Yes is a drink not a meal. Although you can have sandwiches, biscuits, cake or bread and jam with tea.

    Fact.

    I think it was more of a class thing than south v north.

    I grew up in working class London and we called it Tea.
    So did I but we called it dinner.

    Pah, we called it evening meal, i.e. breakfast, lunch and evening meal :wink: .
    Do you own a bed n breakfast?

    Apparently it'll be a world record for the number of posts on a social media thread and the whole site could crash if it goes past three digits just like the fears of IT meltdown at the turn of the last millennium :wink:

    It may well not.

    Just to add an additional band of excitement to this, but we can't find any other site that uses the same platform software carrying a thread beyond 3 digit pages. So your guess is as good as ours.

    Should CL spontaneously combust. It was nice knowing you all :-)
    Wait! You're saying this is the most popular thread on any subject, anywhere in the world?

    No-one in the history of the internet has ever shared their views on a thread with more contributions than this one?

    This topic is the most engaging, compelling, hottest ever, on any site on any subject?

    Blimey.

    Imagine starting this thread up and *still* not getting a promote.
    No, not what I said. I said using this platform software. I’m sure there are thousands of threads in the world of t’internet bigger than this accumulation of sh*te :-)

    If you go back 43-pages you’d see that no internet chat forum thread (not even one as dull as this) has ever reached 1,000 pages before and there are several warnings about what may happen.
    It may be only as worrisome as the Y2K bug in that all the clocks in our houses will stop twice a day or it may reach proper “cats and dogs living together” type Armageddon.

    With this in mind we’re all limiting our posts to only post the most accurate and worthy content onto this thread before it discombobulates.....

    At school, it was always called dinner time for mid-day meal.

    And in my day the staff behind the jump were dinner ladies and you went home for tea.

    Sunday lunch was the exception.

    That said, meals should be breakfast, elevensies, lunch, tea, dinner, supper.

    Great post as per normal

    See there’s one thing I don’t like about the Aussie model and that is that it is too similar to the RD Belgian dream but using Australian links to fulfil our quota of players

    I certainly could have put that aside and watched it all unfold and give it the benefit of the doubt but there’s something telling me that there is more to it than that

    The thing that troubles me with the cash issue is that had the EFL not pulled up the duel football issue and the club would’ve been sold at the agreed price before last Sunday’s cut off

    There’s also the issue that @Davidsmith has once again pointed out and that @Airman Brown has agreed is taking place and that is the deal with the ex directors is currently being sought this can be for one of two reasons

    To facilitate a deal where the ground and training ground can be used separately by RD as a revenue stream and to hold us hostage like Coventry

    Or the debt is needed to be removed to facilitate the sale without changing down the asking price


    All signs that the Australian consortium do not have the required pool of cash to help us regain a decent foothold in divisions higher than we currently are


    @Davidsmith like myself has mentioned and believe that there is still British interest and it has not gone away from the very beginning

    I personally am hoping that this can be held up by the directors not selling up unless a group or an individual wealthy enough and experienced enough in uk football with a real concept and understanding of how to get us out of this predicament

    If the Aussies win and RD is gone then that will only be a good thing because a real enemy will be gone that we both agree


    The rest is going to be a watch this space as something doesn’t sit right

    Mate, I should give it a rest now.

    The thing you don’t like about the Sussie model?!? You don’t know what the model is. They’ve already said it’s not going to be an Aussie nursery club.

    You don’t really know about their finances either. It’s fine to speculate but don’t present it as fact when you don’t know for sure.

    I’d ignore your mate for a bit, relax, and wait for it to happen, or not happen, and take it from there. There’s a World Cup on you know, it’s quite good.

    You are sounding a bit French there if you don’t mind me saying.

    It is Sunday lunch, and we have a roast dinner. Can’t see the contradiction myself.

    Pudding or dessert?
  • Unfortunately, in this country football has sold itself to the devil due to the greed of professional footballers and their greedier agents. As usual the fans are the ones that suffer. Our football clubs are being sold left, right and centre to foreign money who do not give a shit or con artists who do not give a shit. We have been bought by both types of wners in recent years and why? because Richard Murray has fucked up.
