Those irritating geordies (or makems) Steve Cram and Brendan Foster metaphorically sniffing Paula Radcliffe's private parts for two and half hours plus.
Nobody disputes that Paula was a great runner but there is such a thing as overkill!
I'd dispute her as a great, a distinct lack of major championship (Olympic and World) gold medals in her living room cabinet to be considered a great.
That marathon world record of hers alone makes her a great.
It is true that her Olympic record is poor for an athlete of her stature but she has won the world cross country championships as well as world titles for the half marathon and marathon.

No. One MAJOR Gold Medal and a World Record in an event that is run on totally different courses does not make anyone a "Great". She continually failed to deliver on the track in Olympic and World Championships.
Had a quick count yesterday and we have got approx 45 mugs/cups for tea and coffee. There are three adults in the house - why do women need to keep buying them?
Mugs that dont stack properly - you need to put them on top of eachother to provide space for the 43 other mugs that go in the cupboard.
The odd random mug that should not go in the dishwasher - how am I meant to keep track ?

I'm tempted but not quite sad enough to post a photo of our "mug cupboard" in sympathy. When I mention that she has purchased yet another mug and that it may be just a little surplus to requirements I get the explanation that certain mugs are only for certain drinks and as I only drink black coffee I don't understand. Oh yeah, because you need 40 different types of mug...

The Bournemouth game 2/5/15 - Extra 1,400 tickets allocated, rush to relocate existing flasks & blankets thread. Never has so much whinging been said by so few.
Yes mate I do, of course. BUT, you and others like you have to move seats for one game, thats all. In the great scheme of things its not that much of a big deal is it.
How many people on here moan when their train is late, there's always another one.
How many moan about the catering at the Valley, don't eat it then bring your own etc etc
It's not about having a moan. It's about banging on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on about it. Saying I'm not going to the game now and I'm having thoughts about giving up supporting Charlton.
"I won't be claiming them, in fact I won't be going to the match and also having thoughts about giving up supporting them."
Ye gods man ! No one would be happy about giving up their seat, but it's ONE game.
ONE game, in exceptional circumstances. Extending the same courtesy to a decent club, that did it for us in our promotion season 3 years ago.
Have a look at the news. 3700 dead in an earthquake !
Being off the Internet for a few days and now not being able to find Kyle 'Lad' Walkers video.............................. back to Animal Farm on VHS for me

I assume you're in the covered end so doesn't affect you then? Everyone is so generous when it doesn't affect them.
So you show two quotes and I'm going on and on etc
What's todays earthquake got to do with things?
Everyday in the world there are wars going on, rebellion, uprisings, people dying, people starving, atrocities being committed.
These things are going on all the time but some people just want to slag off Morgan Fox or the catering or Roland etc so where's their perspective on things?

I tell you what, I sit at the front of the NW Quad, great view, you can have my seat for Saturday, I'll have whatever ticket/seat the club have given you, and you can have the free vouchers too, but please just stop, your charitable personality is just overwhelming me.........

Yes I sit in The Covered End. Yes I'd be pissed off if I had to move.
I would still go to the game. I've never voluntarily missed a home game since 1972 (5 weddings and one play off game not expected and holiday abroad booked.)
No, I wouldn't consider ending my support for Charlton, because I had to move seat for one game, even if I'd been moved for Millwall !
