Footballs come home (for good)

What crap! 4-1 defeat to the Germans. Why so bad?
It's got to be the number of foreign players in the premier league. Our young stars are just not coming through, they have no chance to get in the team, so they play in the lower leagues. It's time for a limit on the number of non English players in the match squad. Make it 50%.

And as for FIFA not using technology to resolve? Well they must be bonkers, or is there some hidden agenda here? It's obvious that they wanted France rather than Ireland to qualify as it meant more money. Whether Frank Lampards goal was allowed or not would probably not made much difference, we would have lost 4-2. Then, of course the Tevez offside goal would not have been allowed. Where will it all end? A fair result in football - surely not?

We're crap and we know we are

England v Slovenia tomorrow!
My prediction - 0-0 and we are out.

4-0 and Rooney gets a hatrick

You never know????????????????

Moving

Well, The move has fallen through!
My buyer has lost his buyer, who has lost his buyer, because he cant get a mortgage.
So someone down the chain has messed it up for all of us.
The system stinks - surely there's a better way?

118118

Just checking my phone bill. Guess which is the most expensive call? There's no overseas calls, but there are some to 0870 and 0845 numbers.
summary:
25 minute off peak call 49p
16 minute peak time local call £1.10
14 minute 0845 call 39p

Most expensive call is £1.87 for 1 minute and 27 seconds to 118118
That works out at £1.47 per minute!

more expensive than voting for the latest dis functional moron on big brother, or boosting Simon Cowells coffers on Britain's got no talent. Even chat lines are cheaper than that.
The cost is supposed to be 58p per minute, so I guess there must be a connection charge hidden somewhere.

The BT version is 19p per minute. Give it a try: 118800
or use the bloody yellow pages!!!
