Albion are great on Boxing Day

[Gwylan]

We're good on Boxing Day. We haven't lost on this day since 1990 (and have only five times in the 39 years that I've been watching the Albion).

Let's hope we keep that record up.

 

[dougdeep]

... and our record against QPR is very impressive.

Go MAX. That has put me in a good mood, unlike the 1100 exams I see before me that need marking. Red biro is being wielded as I type!

 

[Gwylan]

Bloody hell KIERAN, you're not working on Boxing Day? Shouldn't you be stuffing yourself with leftovers?

Pity you didn't have them with you during your enforced stopover in Prague, you could have spent time usefully then - instead of hunting down Prague's porno cinemas.

 

[El Presidente]

Because it took me 26 hours to return home from Moscow I am behind with my work schedule. Hence starting at 7.00am on Boxing Day to catch up.

Biggest problem is marginal fails, should I be generous and pass them as it is the season to be jolly, or should I just reserve my benevolence for those candidates with big norks?

Have a good one MAX, see you at Luton?

 

[Gwylan]

I think you should be generous all, KIERAN. The benevolence to the big-breasted is reserved for next year.

Unfortunately, can't make Luton as we have a houseful of guests. I'll make it to an away game oop North next year.

Hope the marking's not too tedious.

Hope the marking's not too tedious.

Deferred tax implications of pension schemes and share based payment. It makes me MOIST with excitement, but it PAYS well

I have only seen the Albion beat them once, a home victory in 2003, and I have never been to Loftus Road.

What do you mark?

Subject, course range?

GCSE? A Level?

Exported to Excel so some scores changed to dates! But you get the picture.

Thanks for that TGC. I note that I got the year wrong in the original post and it was in 1991 that we last lost on BD.

Still, a 15-year run isn't bad.
