Qualifying for the Champions League

Takes hat off and clutches to chest while bowing head.

These kids don't do subtlety no more. I say he's a magician, and in THE SAME SENTENCE I say that he disappeared. I'm conjuring an image there (again, deliberate use of language). It was like he did the cabinet trick with his wife as assistant and *puff*, he disappeared himself from family responsibilities. Do people think that's some sort of lexical accident? Time was I'd have had an embarrassment of likes, but the days of a craftsman like me are gone. I should shuffle off with Treboeth into oblivion.

I think we're wasted in here, @doctor_mac . My joke about Joe Louis didn't get any likes in the transgender thread.

I think a highbrow Liverpool forum like Scouser Tommy will probably put a bid in for us. We're simply too talented to fester away in here.

I'll have to get my agent to let it slip that I'm looking away, you'll probably read about it in the papers tomorrow.

I think this is the right level for me. My agent has been talking up a Fiorentina forum, but I think they'd soon realise I wasn't even worth a place on the bench.

There is the rather impressive Chinese forced isolate method.

Collective isolation is a good description of working in a coffee shop. It's enough to make me listen to some Elliot Smith.

I'm sorry to let you know, but the powers that be are prepared to do a swap deal with an up-and-comer on a Liverpool subreddit forum if you don't up your game.

A spell in the General Forum might do the trick.

It's how we used to do it in the old days - you wouldn't join and then just swan into the Football Forum; you had to do your time in the other Forums first, and then maybe contribute to a Match Thread now and again.

Prove yourself, add value, make sure you contribute. And then one day, maybe, just maybe, you can do your own match ratings with jokes in them.

It’s fucking awesome that he added links to two sites just to get his point across. Bless.

 

[Dirty Sanchez]

. . . And Raz putting the boot in adds a certain je ne sais quoi to the whole sordid affair.

I nearly spat my coffee out reading. Got a great giggle. I really hope he was just taking the piss. It’s great!

Dissapearing magician... hihihihi. Clever!!

He very obviously wasn't taking the piss, because he's very obviously stupid.

However, maybe it isn't this thread that's caused the problem and his absence from the Forum; he seemed extraordinarily angry about Caroline Flack, and was whanging on about her being a horrible domestic abuser, and glad she was dead, and then he actually called me "educationally subnormal" and said "I get some retards who spout shit in the back of my taxi but you make me realise they are just amateurs."

Maybe it's some kind of post-Flack breakdown and he will be back shortly to explain this thread to an eagerly-waiting 6CM?

After all, I don't doubt that a 52 year old Welsh taxi driver has heard much worse.

[darkstarexodus]

Didnt people used to call Coutinho a "magician"? His career sure has disappeared.

Haha. You made someone snap? Didn't see that coming for sure 😀

 

[Dreambeliever]

Ha has he not come back to take it in the chin yet?

This means I have not had the induction training... I went straight into Football Forum. Its too late now, just hope the mods do not treat me like the the Windrush generation.

Since you are here it is to late. You know the rhyme: Three geese in a flock- one flew east, one flew west and one flew over the cuckoo's nest. Mods will threath you accordingly .

When the fuck was this? Must have been the 90s.

Crazy days those internet days.

Haha. I used to borrow a few laptops from work (worked at an electric store during my studies in the early/mid 90's) and me and some friends went for a weekend trip to the mountain cottage. Then I very cleverly somehow connected them together with cables and I normally managed to manipulate the internal IP adresses so we could join the same football manager game after a few hours of trying and falling. And then we could sit in the same room and swear at each other when we played. That was early days of "internet" for me. Same colorful language in communication as now.

Ah yes.. I remember hooking up my uni house with LAN cables so we could play a season of football manager.

Think we managed 1 whole season in 2 years because of our lecture patterns and the time it took to get everyone to hit continue

But the oral "forum" beats the written one 😀
