The Internet suggests its a display issue which is relatively common but either way they'll not be getting that amount. Maybe they've included your drink bill. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's incredibly wanky to cry about their support. At least their fans support their team rather than Sevco or Celtic. I think the tweet by this website is exceptionally wanky and pretty pish behaviour. Agreed. The worst bit is that it seems to aimed, at least in part, at the fans that do go which is bit silly really. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnnydun Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 Hand dryers, public hand dryers. I don't think they have ever dried my hands properly. The Dyson ones come close but I still end up using my jeans/joggers for the last bit. They'd be as well hanging up a pair of trousers to let folk dry their hands properly. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, taking the "general" (by which is apparently meant 'highly specific") sense, the assertion is still clearly incorrect. Counterexample: 10 households, 9 paying £100, the other paying £1000. The average in the sense intended is the median: £100; 10% of households pay more than (that) average. QEb*****dingD The median would be the midpoint between 100 and 1000. In this case it would be 550. The mode would be 100. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
