I didn't... you must be good at anagrams are you... or are you humpy because your not that good at them and that Plum from Swindon got there before you... It's a game is it not or are British Intelligence sponsoring Newcastle this year? (By the way its not British Intelligence before anyone gets the wrong idea; but if you want to know who it is I can give you another anagram by PM or in the form of a crossword clue and 5 and 5 letters) (unlike the laden down postman clue) (how many letters?) (Millions) I have told someone on here before "Balance of Probabilities" and if you want lottery numbers no problem on the same basis I will give you a line and the reasoning behind it...

ruffdiamond 6,115 Posted December 23, 2019 Can a just say, that if you say 'that no-one will ever guess', is just encouraging people to try and guess. That's the way it is IMO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yep and the kid worked wonders... he was brilliant and very much part of the team and he had a little crisis in confidence half way through the season which was understandable and he even said he would understand if he got cut and no one would hear a word of it.... the Worky promotion stood by him Jacko gave him a cuddle and so did yours truly and a bonus of 20 quid a point at ipswich did the trick and the rest is H18tory as the saying goes...

Nowt to do with my education levels it’s the autocorrect. But since you can’t pick holes in my argument just get personal then. You will have to give me more than that as I can't think of a 5 letter word that starts "blank S H blank blank" that means poor or not very good... and I thought I used to be good at blankety blank... Ruffdiamond is the guy for that... As for your argument that the team isn't very good... well it certainly doesn't stack up now... how can it... you will only find that out when the season starts and as pointed out Worky in Speedway Leicester in Football were both deemed to be poor teams yet went on to great things... So currently the holes in your arguement are there for everyone to see... like I said it's your opinion that I hope is wrong as I would like to see them do well and I think they will... at least at this point of the season I think they will... hopefully I am proved right and you are wrong... but only time will tell... On the word that is being auto corrected it shows your intelligence when it has been pointed out to your good self several times even before I picked up on it that it is incorrect... do you not have the vocabulary to use another word that means not very good... try this type in moron and see what that is auto corrected to... or stop using the word that comes out as Rubbishe and then your education levels will not come into question... and that's from a bloke who went to Longbenton High School... 38 minutes ago, DC2 said: Don’t know what’s wrong with the bloke.
