    Won't be Van Dijk as they've already said they won't spend anywhere near 70mill on him.

    Now that should be a worry for you. He wouldn't **** about like Liverpool trying to balance the net spend, he would just pay you whatever it takes.

    This image summed up my view of Liverpool fans and their comments regarding their likely purchase VVD

    Don't be difficult now. That image I would be banned from posting. I could try but it wouldn't stay up for more than a few moments.

    Anyway I can't look at rude stuff because the very lovely Mrs Godders:emoticon-0115-inlov has set our computer so that such things cannot be accessed. She says it was to protect the grandchildren but the way she looked at me when she said it I think it was done to spoil my fun.

    Ok then we'll stick with the straws .... let's just hope we're not posting a fist with the last straw in it, a few weeks from now.

    On the grammatical point, isn't straw a bit like sheep in that the singular is the same as the plural? I understand "getting the short straw" but other than stuck in your soft drink, can you get straws?
    Maybe this isn't a real problem and I am simply raising it as an issue to easily demolish my own argument and then claim some credit for the supposed victory. If only there was an expression for that!

    Plural of straw would be straws, as in "drawing straws"...when you use it as a noun of course. As an adjective, it wouldn't have a terminal S, as in straw hat, straw bale, straw man.
    Is that OT enough?

    Yeah, I should have posted in blue really. I thought that the second paragraph would have been sufficient. Roll on football. Maybe the mods will get a grip on the board then?
