  1. Boss says to his secretary " I want to have sex with you, but don't worry it will be over very quickly"

    He goes on to say, " I'll throw £1,000 down on the floor and I'll have sex with you in the time it takes to pick it up when you bend down to pick it up"

    The secretary is not sure, so rings her boyfriend, who says " do it but ask for £2,000 and make sure you pick it up in  a flash. That way he won't even have time to unzip his trousers"

    Half an hour later the boyfriend rings to find out how she got on.

    " The bastard threw down the money in coins. I'm still picking them up and he's still going strong!" 

  2. We win a game, and we seem almost absurdly over confident about a result here. They are top by four points, unbeaten all season. They must have something about them. 

    A draw would be a fantastic result. Hopefully the players lose their nerves and share our confidence today!

    Think the Forest game showed that there has been no loss confidence, despite results.

    You are right in that Brighton will be a tough nut to crack and any sort of result will be a plus. My main hope s that we carry on from Friday's first half, because if we do then we will be in with a chance but think a lot will depend on how well we defend tonight. Thinking a narrow defeat is the most likely outcome.

    Lot of information and a lot of reasoning behind how they calculate and I think its worth studying further to see if this is a valid rankings system football fans should follow rather than the arguably badly flawed 'cash stuffed brown bag' system.

    The wiki entry is a little easier on the eye, the ELO web site needs work but get through that and see what you think. Be interesting to hear people's opinions on this thread. Might be worth pinning this somewhere modulators.

    May I suggest listening to Evil Woman while meandering through the site?..

     

    That'll be the (All Over the) World Rankings then Havana? :whistle:

  4. Cracking little read that, Hava.

     

    Come the end of the season I want you to publish all of your match thread introductions.  I'll buy a few copies, that's for sure.

     

    I predict a 2 - 2 draw today, with Gray scoring for the Burnley (he has to score at least once, it's virtually in the script).

     

    Our scorers will be Wilbs and Kodjia.

     

    COME ON YOU REDS.......

     

    I want Big Tone to publish all of his, but  his will be a leaflet, not a book.
