On payday he went round the building quietly asking to borrow £20 to tide him over, raised about £400. Never saw him again. He'd been there 2 days. Genius.

TheCelt67 Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 The FA offered me a role in the England set up after I took Woking from the Conference to the Champions League in six seasons. Stuff like that doesn't go unnoticed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of the older boys at my work have told me that 1. Another good reason I take about £1.50 to work wi me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know the man/woman who runs the Treasury so I'm not paying any more tax. I'm doing this on your advice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't implying that all the money would have been repaid... I was just wondering if Welshbairn's colleagues were allowed to share the cad's wages Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
