Pit Bits Bits

The most trivial thing in the world but something that has bugged me for ages is workies vans that you see driving about with brooms slid up-right into the frame behind the cab. Don't know why it bugs me..........but it does. You just get the impression of some unofficial top tips for workies doing the rounds.........'Fed up with your broom sliding about the back of your pick-up when going round the corners? Why not stick it in the frame behind the cab?'

He had an ill fated spell with us but by all accounts his attitude left a lot to be desired. Last heard of (by me anyway) playing for Craigmark, a less than average Ayrshire junior outfit or someone similar.

Motorbikers We get all these adverts about how we have to respect and watch out for these b*****ds but they are the most infuriating, ignorant folk on the road when they start making overtaking moves and putting everybody else's lifes at risk That thing when they jump queues of stationary traffic gets on my nerves as well and although they are in their rights to do it, I long for the day when a driver in a queue realises his door isn't shut right and opens it so he can shut it right, just as 'Barry Sheene' draws level with him!

AAHHHHHHHHH FUUCCCKKKK!!!!!!!!!! West Brom burst me for £88 pound. For the 5th weekend running, one team shafts me on a line of 5 (it was 6 today coz I took Man Utd as a banker to top my 'winnings' up) Plus Leeds fucking me over on Tuesday night, its a sad sad world

Further to my post of Saturday (see above) Leeds last night burst me for £50 by losing at home to Cheltenham! All of the above were 5 team accumulators with just one team fucking it up

Remember it? I had 0003 that day!! I did hear a story though, whether its true or not I don't know, that it was a young disabled kid that made the draw and he didn't mix the tickets in the time honoured fashion before he pulled out the winners. I reckon that was just a smokescreen mind ye

I'd report the wee b@stard!! He probably was tipped off what the winning number was going to be and he pulled a fast one on you, scooping the brand new Ferrari that was up for grabs. THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN YOURS!!!

Sit back and let me tell you about my tales of woe in the world of fixed odds coupons. Feb 16th:- YES!!!! My 4 four aways are up. I had picked 5 but the Carlisle game was off. Never mind, £ 107 coming my way!!! Feb 23rd:- Took my 'winning' coupon from the Saturday before into Ladbrokes only to be told I had placed my selections on a 1st half football coupon. As it turns out, even at that only Swansea burst me. Later that same day, Crystal Palace screwed me for £ 167. Mar 1st:- Ross County bring their long winning streak to and end by drawing and in turn doing me over for just over £100. Today:- Good ol' Nottingham Forest draw at Crewe. If Everton win at Sunderland tomorrow, Forest have shafted me for just over £170. Maybe someone can enlighten me but were Forest awarded a 40 point start this season? The amount of times I've picked them this season and they have either drew or got beat is unbelievable yet they are still up in the play-off positions. Christ, even on Monday night in the live Sky game at home to Carlisle when I didn't pick them they still got beat.

Don't know if anyone seen it, but on GMTV news hour between 6:00 and 7:00 yesterday morning there was some typical English newspaper hack discussing the previous nights football. Now I dislike Rangers as much as the next man and agree that the Bremen keeper was attrocious but this knob had obviously been reading the Jimmy Greaves Annual 1983 before he went on air to comment that the keepers gaffes were what we would expect from a 'Scottish keeper'!! Aye Scottish keepers don't get transferred for £9m these days do they? English keepers (namely Robinson on umpteen occasions, Carson and James) have never made fucking howlers in the last few years, have they? You got the impression this eejit had just started covering football and was going on any old stereotype to get him through.

The Charlatans - Oh Vanity. Fucking great new tune from the lads! B)

Who's up for giving Neil Warnock the kicking he deserves??

This certainly ain't petty and no doubt the evil b*****ds among you will find it funny. Went into Ladbrokes this morning to claim just over £100 on my 'winning' coupon from last Saturday only for it to become apparant that I had actually marked out my line on a '1st Half Football' coupon. Then Crystal Palace shafted me for £167 this afternoon.

Very trivial this but its the stat that commentators trot out along the lines of..... "Team X have only beaten team Y once since 1970" ....but when you think about, they have maybe only played each other 8 or 9 times in that time. Surely it'd be more accurate to say they've only beaten them once in the last nine games. Here's a mind blowing stat for you on that logic:- Rangers haven't beat East Stirling since 1964. Get your money on the Shire

Cannae say I'm too struck on any of that to be honest!! Sorry!

Yeah, it might have been her!! Most of the folk looked about the same age.
