What a c***, I hate Spurs but to do that to a player is scummy, I hate Ballotelli anyway, he's a flash little prick & just courts trouble.

I didn't see the match, but they'll no doubt talk about this on MOTD2 tonight. My brother said he ought to have been sent off but I didn't realise it was that bad. Just as Balotelli was beginning to grow on me too for his hilarious antics. Shameful.

Balotelli is the kind of player that ruins football, not just with things like that but the whole Look At Me I'm A Really Famous And Therefore Important Celebrity thing. Footballers should be sportsmen and athletes first and anything else second - fewer and fewer of them are.

If it was the other way round, people wouldn't be as surprised - if Scott Parker challenges rashly, or does something dirty he's 'Good Old Scotty'. But yeah, poor form from Balotelli. I think part of his fierce character comes from the terrible abuse he would get in Italy for being black and in the Italian team (Juve fans were the worst)

It's hard for footballers not to be celebrities in some cases - he started on huge money, heralded for his talent in one of the biggest footballing countries for one of the best teams in the world. That will always affect your perception of the world.

Evidently his 10:30 statement was more accurate than you anticipated...

Commiserations missus.

That is annoying.

More annoying than me having to reign in some pretty funny one liners with regard to the situation as I don't want to upset anyone!

Apparently at some point last week, I became a member of the Labour Party. I don't remember joining, and the lady in charge of the meetings, who lives two doors away, is thrilled and wants me to go to the meetings and get involved in canvassing.

It may have been on a late night last week when I woke up in the middle of the night. I knew watching those party political broadcasts before bedtime was a bad idea.

See that was the last thing that I was gonna take the piss about, funny isn't it.

It was more based on him being married or having a wank, and therefore no point in coming, again, so to speak.

Thats all, I reckon it's the boys who are missing out on you!!!

Hmmm, I don't know, I worked with a woman once, and she was your sort of Age, and had little success with Men, and then met at work a chap who split up from his Alcohlic Wife, and within 12 months or so these two got together, were happy and 4 or so years later got married... It can, does, and will happen, if you want it too, if you don't, thats cool too.......

In the mean time

TOMORROW IS TAT TIME!!!!!!

Sad rather than annoyed today, one of our engineers at work passed away today & it's really effected me (and several others in the office badly), he was a nice guy & got on well with everyone, the poor bloke was only in his fifties. I haven't been able to stop thinking about it since I was told this morning :(

My car locks are broken on both doors and now I'm locked out of my car. I might have to try climb through the boot later.

Got deadline on Friday and someone was meant to be here to have a meeting with me at 09:30... Still not here.

Whats that? You want me to spend just shy of £500,000 with your company, yet you can't turn up on time? Lets see how punctual your main competitor is, shall we?!!

Grrrrr. Ruddy salesmen.

What kind of locks are they? Central locking? If not, you could try picking them...


I've picked a lock using two paperclips before...I must add it was one of MY locks, I'm not a burglar/thief :D

Kick 'em into touch. Like you say, they want your business, they should make like they give a shit. If they don't, no second chances, bye bye.
