Q.P.R vs Brighton And Hove Albion **** Official Match Thread****

[Lord Bracknell]

When 23 or more people are in the same room there is a better than evens chance that at least two of them share the same birthday. As the average class size in British schools is larger than 23, more than half the classes in Britain have two pupils with the same birthday.

`Twenty-three, skidoo!' is an American catch phrase from the beginning of the century. It may have come from the stage play of Charles Dickens's A Tale of Two Cities where an old woman counts the victims being executed on the guillotine. As she speaks `Twenty-three!' the hero Sydney Carton is beheaded in the last act. Henry Miller's serious dramatisation of the story was parodied by Broadway comedians and became `Twenty-three, skidoo!'.

Apparently, according to the halfwit being interviewed at half time on the player, we are 'giving Reading problems'. FFS!!!

[WATFORD zero]

The pianist with the missing fingers - he could still thump out a decent tune.

[BBassic]

Sounds like we're playing 'superb'.

Superb. Superb. Superb. Superb.

 

[Superseagull69]

Both on bench.



Put him on ignore. Cathartic decision.

Cheers mate, I just noticed they have Barnes listed as both in the starting 11 & on the bench.

23 skiddoo has a great reacord called 'f-uck you GI' in the early 80s. A bit disturbing, tho'

There were 23 problems on David Hilbert's famous list of unsolved mathematical problems, presented to the International Congress of Mathematicians in Paris in 1900. [wiki]

 

[Barrel of Fun]

Psalm 23 is about a shepherd leading and feeding his flock. Will Conway have the same influence?

 

[El Sid]

He's so damn good, we're playing him twice.

If he gets tired he can replace himself
