He said Viking Erik is a strap-on wearing, cheese-sniffing, monkey-cuddling, Village People-loving, viagra-taking, crack-addicted grease urchin. With bad breath

Strap-on wearing:

Yes <ok>

Cheese-sniffing:

Occasionally, but only nob-cheese (none of that stuff made from cow's milk) <ok>

Monkey-cuddling

Only Northern monkeys.

Village People-loving

Are you insinuating I'm gay, because I'm not. George Michael and Culture Club for me thanks.

Viagra-taking

I'm not 60, so I don't need it yet. So no.

Crack-addicted

I don't do drugs (I smoke cannabis occasionally, but as that's a naturally growing plant I don't think that qualifies). So no.

Grease urchin

Yes <ok>

With bad breath

I have surprisingly nice breath actually (so no). <yikes>
 
ok. Hull gets all the wrong criticism because of stupid figures like "its got more fish and chips shops then anywhere else and it has 69 crimes committed a day". If it actually went by how places looked, Kingston upon Hull would not be in the top ten at all. Now i feel that leicester would be.

Sorry if its taken a while, im typing on my PS3.
 
I remember this. I think Nottingham and Mansfield (in Notts) were both in the top 10 (or bottom ten as it were). But Hull was official the ugliest place in the UK.

I think you will find that a similar survey has voted Beverley (8 miles north of Kingston upon Hull) the best place to live in the UK. We all have positives and negatives where we live. I am fortunate in that I live in one of the most pleasant areas in England - the East Riding of Yorkshire - a beautiful region and not an over-populated one like the midlands.
 
When you hand in your notice at work it's usually a month you have to give because it says that in your contract.
At the same time your contract also says that if they want to lay you off for non-disciplinary reasons they have to give you a months notice.

When a football club sacks a manager there's rarely a notice period/compensation figure agreed on in advance, like when we wanted to sack Brown we had to put him on gardening leave until we agreed a settlement. That would suggest there's no notice period in a manager's contract. It would also make sense that even if there were such a clause it would only be effective during the early part of the summer, but that's a seperate discussion.

In the absence of a defined notice period in his contract NP is tied to us until the end of his contract unless compensation is accepted by the club, or if we sacked him compensation was accepted by him. If he resigned, unless we agreed to let him go he would be in breach of contract if he signed for another club before his contract was due to end.

When Taylor was here he was on a one year rolling contract (every day he woke up with a year left on his contract) with the compensation figures for if another club wanted him or if we wanted to sack him written into the deal. As we're stumbling over the negotiations either NP doesn't have similar clauses or Leicester aren't prepared to pay them and are haggling (I suspect the former is the more likely).

I don't think you're right there Ricardo - it depends on what your contract says. Mine says I have to give 3 months notice. No employee with any common sense would go into a contract with no notice period clause.

And when we got rid of PB, it wasn't that we had no notice period. We put him on garden leave for his notice period, whilst we also agreed his pay-off

There's no point telling anyone that, every time someone on here sees I'm a Hull fan and tries to take the piss, I tell them I'm a born and bred Beverley lad and they just ignore it and carry on. <grr><laugh>
 
ps to everyone else saying that Hull or Leicester are to worst places to live - you're all wrong. I've lived in Stoke and that officially is the worst place to live (sorry Febbos if you're reading)

Yes, my sister lived there for a few years so I know that place quite well. You're right, it's a dive. She now lives near Bolton. I haven't been but she says it's actually quite nice! The people don't sound great though.
