    We HAVE to win against the US on 12th June 2010 or I will never, EVER hear the end of it. Some of them still use 1950 and 1994 against us...

    Surprised no-one did the above already...

    Yes, the silent majority vote usually vote with their feet rather than risk abuse on the forum but a poll gives them a chance to air their views.

    Get your hands on a copy of the novel "1984" by Eric Arthur Blair AKA George Orwell.

    Fantastic!

    That's what I was thinking. Won't this mess up their media studies dissertation (allegedly)...?

    Yes it does look like that - especially now in a list of other unhappy postings. Thanks to all for their suggestions. I didn't get the chance to try any as I had to do some work - sounds like it was a blessing in disguise from reading some of the comments on the match...

    Anyone know if there is a "low quality" option for commentary? I keep getting "Network Server" errors cos everyone's on the web here (more than usual!) as it's lunch time.

    PMSL! Brilliant!

    You were short-changed it should have been 7"...

    Was that the same one shouting "HOT POTATO!" "PASS THE BALL. LIKE HOT POTATO" "PASS IT!"? I remember it from the video - not from being at the match, we were too busy trying to breath crammed in those pens.

    Today's test: "Arrange the following emoticons in the correct order"

    We didn't want to chance it on Barlows so we went on the Latics train... Guess what? Yeah, you're right it broke down (or there were some long delay for some reason). Think we got back about 4am? We were on telly celebrating but don't remember any Latics fans being on the pitch. Some of my brothers' mates who were with us on the train didn't get in to the ground cos they went for a pre-match pint. So the journey back was a bit muted. Good times though!

    Why do people care if our flag is the "wrong way" round or upside down or back to front? Does it really matter? Something I've always wondered about... Anyway, as you were. "I pledge allegiance to the flag of blahdy, blahdy, blah..."

    Excellent post. Another member of the "silent majority" steps forward. However, be warned: you'll be hounded off the boards by the 'happy clappers" with that kind of sensible talk...

    This is for Bring Back Pukka Pies... Cheers. I saw the thread after I posted... I have an 8 hour time delay , I mean, difference, you know!

    When I try and use Live Chat I get the following error message: JN45. ** URGENT NOTICE - THE LICENSE FOR THIS PARACHAT ROOM HAS EXPIRED, OR HAS NOT YET BEEN ACTIVATED! ** For more information, visit http://parachat.com/expired.html Is this genuine? I am using an older PC than I usually use...

    From Wikipedia: The phrase "hammer and tongs" means "with great energy and force", often phrased "to go at it with hammer and tongs". The origins of this phrase is from blacksmithing, where tongs are used during forging to hold the hot iron as it is hammered into shape. Yeah, fair comment mate but, let's just say, it's sometimes used to describe something that people are hoping one day to read about (or watch) in the 100+ page thread on here...

    You must have been as confused as I was by the "hammer and tongs" comment.

    I was sceptical when they made all the new universities and planned to increase the number of graduates they churned out. I was called an elitist.

    That's the one - I'm not old enough to remember the others! Those were great days - good booze ups. Never any trouble apart from the pie-eaters having a go at the Warrington fans.

    Cheers, remember it well! IIRC people living abroad were able to watch the next round live too (1-0 defeat to Bolton)
  23. martjs
    Me too then! It was worth the toil though cos I received a full grant from Oldham LEA... Student loan? What's one of those?

    "...getting his teeth into..." Alan just can't help himself, can he? Welcome aboard!
  25. martjs
    Well I meant mostly on Friday nights and sometimes Saturday nights too. I remember the heartfelt rendition of "Simply The Best" on the night of the semi final defeat... IIRC, the Oldham Rugby captain was on the stage... can't remember his name now.
