    Chelsea possibly re-signing David Luiz.

    It's like someone buying a cat from you that had been screaming at all hours and shitting on the carpet, only for you to buy it back even though you know it still does it.

    Going through life never realizing the significant contribution of Raith Rovers to Scottish football in 1921.
    And discovering there is no settlement called Raith.

    Chelsea sending a player out on a 3 year loan.

    Obviously nobody else will play his wages.
    So basically a free transfer to Juventus with subsidised player wages.

    Meire school of business level that.

    No settlement called Raith? No wonder I've been feeling a bit unsettled lately,

    I don't know what a "poddle" is - is that French for "poodle"?

    It's a furry device used in canoes.

    You can mock but impoverished Calatan home improvers rely on these sales
  • Have just seen that Barcelona are offering Sevilla £26m for Steven N'Zonzi - Are they being serious that La Liga is better than the Premier League, he could barely hack it at Stoke on a Tuesday night and he bloomin' played for them!!
  • More "puzzled" than confused. How/why does something like a packet of biscuits have such a specific "Best before" date on it? Just opened some chocolate digestives with BB 14/01/17 on them. I mean, I get "BB end of..." dates, and a specific date for something fresh that will be stale in three days, but choccy biccies?

    I'd like to see a packet of chocolate biscuits try and make it to anywhere near its BB date in our house.

    They'll not taste as good after the BB date & will gradually start to go stale.
