"Stamp tourists" I call them - i.e. they only go somewhere to collect the passport stamp to prove they've been there.

Is Phil Stant still playing and available?

Are we signing him from China to tap into the lucrative Far Eastern Premier League market?

Prince Charming Prince Charming Pretty cool is Jose Is-key-erdo. Or something. Can't be arsed to work on it.

Do we not count the 5 million or so other posts that were moved to The Other Stuff or NSC Gold?

'Fewer than...', not 'less than...' 'Where are...', not 'Where's...' :whistle:

18 goals and 15 assists last season according to NOS (the main Dutch public news service, so the BBC News equivalent): https://nos.nl/artikel/2187326-almere-city-uitblinker-ahannach-naar-brighton.html Albeit scored in the Dutch Eerste Divisie (Championship), which is like the Highland League...

A marginally better edit of that ('kas' means both 'greenhouse' and 'cash register' but Google can't tell the difference): It's happening: José Izquierdo, the 2016 Golden Boot winner, is leaving Club Brugge and is about to sign a contract for Premier League Brighton & Hove Albion, where he will...

He does appear to be HLN's chief football writer, so probably has good access to Club Brugge insiders. Doesn't make 'in principle' any more of a guarantee though.

Not really low level press. Het Laatste Nieuws is one of the more popular papers in Flanders (which covers Club Brugge): http://www.hln.be/hln/nl/2730/Club-Brugge/article/detail/3229253/2017/08/10/Izquierdo-op-weg-naar-Brighton-Hove.dhtml Most other reports appear to be linking to this one, or...

The message I usually try to convey is: "It's not that I don't like kids. It's just that I don't like your kids." And no, I don't have any either. I never saw the point.

That's Maradona isn't it?

Almost right, but edited for more accuracy. :thumbsup:

Rule 1 of holiday-makng: Never ever go on holiday anywhere where there are women who feel the need to wear stilettos.

Yeah, the main speakers failed for AC/DC, but their stage feedback speakers worked fine, so they rocked on for two songs oblivious to the fact that no one could hear them. Remember Nils Lofgren's nifty back flip during a guitar solo. The NME headline for the gig the following week was 'Mr...

Me too. I didn't think Cornwell was joking, just thought he was a tw@t. "If you're a Brighton fan, they just lost 4-nil," was what he said if I recall. Wouldn't have been so bad, but it was one of only two times he spoke during a very uninspiring performance (the other was in response to some...

Did it? *cough* There were fewer universities. *cough* :thumbsup:

Paris S-G have allegedly put in a €222 million bid.

I think it was dicussed earlier on this thread that the low figure was only quoted in the Daily Mail(?) and then everyone else quoted/copied them. A PSV club spokeperson is said to have given a 'wry smile' when the low sum was quoted to them, so the actually figure is going to be much closer to...

Probably "Prer-per", but it's not a traditional Dutch name. Almost certainly German origin. There is no "ö" in the Dutch alphabet, you only see it in imported words.
