Well, we all knew this thread would be tough today but everyone involved was more than up to it. I think it's a credit to the mentality we're developing here. It's great for some of it to rub off on some of the younger posters too.

All credit to the lads, they've done a decent thread here.

Still think Alans Sugars "Carlos Kickaball" comment takes some beating

Aye, both sides seem to be cancelling each other out right now. Can either be the one to break the deadlock?

Come on, Edna. Can't expect everything to be Perfect.

But then, this a thread where any post can beat any other.
