To a moth, light years. To a Dragonfly, "Just three short minutes..." "And when the roses are half-bud soft flowers And lovely as the king of flies has come It was a fleeting visit, all too brief In three short minutes, he had been and gone He rested there upon an apple leaf A gorgeous opal crown sat on his head Although the garden is a lovely place Was it worthy of so fine a guest Oh Oh Oh Oh Dragonfly, dragonfly"
Ooh ooh, I have. In the late eighties I was living in Sunderland on the dole (there is nothing more depressing than that by the way), and I got an interview for a job in Beverley. I duly attended but immediately I commenced the interview process, I realised that the job was not for me. Problem was that if I withdrew or turned the job down they wouldn't pay travel expenses. Which was cash in hand and without which I literally didn't have the money to get home or eat or anything. Went through a whole day selection process trying to ensure that I didn't get the job, without making myself look a complete pilchard. It was quite challenging as the other candidates were a bunch of morons. But I managed it. True story.
It’s a high bar. I confess I’ve got nothing of that standard. A few “that meal receipt is over the agreed limit” shenanigans, that’s all. Poor show really.
I usually explain that the gaps in my employment record were,due to no fault of my own,periods spent at Her Majestys Pleasure in HMP Barlinnie 'C' Hall...100% success rate
And i was just thinking this was going to be just another boring day but now i know the distance from Hull to Hessle and Rotherham to Sheffield. Happy days
Rotherham and Luton are ‘flying high under the radar’ at the moment. Both clubs appear to play a more ‘direct’ game which goes against the more fashionable ‘possession’ approach but currently is reaping success especially when they are not considered one of the division’s favourites. It seems everyone at these clubs is ‘on board’ with this playing style which many on here have indicated we do not have a preferred one.Obviously, their player recruitment has been focused on the ‘robust’ type of player required to implement this style which again seems to have been lacking with our purchases i.e. the cart before the horse which has resembled a haphazard collection of signings.Recent submissions have highlighted we are ‘vertically challenged’ and miss height, strength and leadership in the squad which the Millers and Hatters have in abundance. It will be interesting to see if these attributes have a significant bearing on City’s performance and match result tomorrow when we play at Gulliver’ Kingdom!
I didn't say i would drop greaves, however 3 into two doesn't go. Its an opportunity to rest someone. Dropping is a harsh word . Its a squad game
Disappointing Ernie... I was expecting them to say that you are the outstanding candidate and that you start on Monday and thats how you ended up in East Yorkshire...
In fairness every message board needs a Vern. As well as the usual assortment of ****s, you know who you are, a super dopey **** is essential, and Vern stepped up to the plate big time. The views expressed in this post are mine.
