StarTripper Posted May 30, 2000 Author Share Posted May 30, 2000 Perhaps we should conduct the rest of this thread in the style of a 'Carry On' film? I know I'd like too (oh, I say!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Londoner Posted May 31, 2000 Share Posted May 31, 2000 Whey, i luv that Yank sense of humour . But seriously, strategy and tactics have never been your forte. Ahhh 1812, good year wasn't it? (We've still got the Burnt pathetic rag, its in the Shropshire Military museum BTW) Lookin forward 2 showing our little cousins how the superior British military mind works.

majic Posted May 31, 2000 Share Posted May 31, 2000 Well now see if you were really a cricket fan you wouldn't be asking this question on a Wednesday, test matches always run Thursday through Monday, if they play the full five days. So they start the latest test at Trent Bridge tomorrow morning, simple really! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owen Posted May 31, 2000 Share Posted May 31, 2000 Londoner, groovy baby, love the joke. On a serious note though lets have a battle of the nations, even if its just so we Brits can spank some arse (repeat arse not ass). Oh yeah one more point who saw the England-Ukraine match, again we were spanking arse. I will know stop talking about arses; over and out, tally ho, smoke me a kipper I'll be back for Breakfast, keep the tea on the boil.

And I thought there was a test on during the weekend, but there you go, I was mistaken. Losing my mind and the correct dates. Where has that Anthony Eden gone, BTW? Does listening to cricket live on radio 4 make me a fan? Owen, have you already bought a supply of hankys for England v. Germany, wouldn't do if you messed up the couch with all those tears of misery... And the sad truth is, old boy, Ukraine is only playing internationally so as to not totally frustrate your country. You can always win against them, that's what they are there for. Our glorious national side OTOH beat Real Mallorca 4-0, I say the Euro is ours. See you at the penalty-shootout. Andreas (feeling cruel tonight due to jet-lag, and not going into a Coventry pub until the Euro is over) Ps.

Manx Posted June 1, 2000 Share Posted June 1, 2000 Now now boyz....thats no way to treat our American friends...after all... we did set them up on that little island of theirs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owen Posted June 1, 2000 Share Posted June 1, 2000 Germanboy (I presume your German but relised Coventry has much more to offer then anything the Fatherland has) if your so adamant that Germany are going to beat England then put your money where your mouth is go to flutter.com place a bet (not done against a bookie) place 1:1 odds and I will take the bet up against you. I think even you relise Germany are going to crash ad burn, if you call Shevckenko and Rebrov ****, then good help your coffin pushing team.

MichaelU Posted June 1, 2000 Share Posted June 1, 2000 Well Germanboy, if you're looking for the cricket results, old chap, you could do worse than go to www.cricinfo.org, the home of all things cricket on the Internet. Must dash now. Toodle pip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiloIndiaAlpha Posted June 1, 2000 Share Posted June 1, 2000 It's always fun to remind our American friends that their first president was actually an Englishman... About three years ago I was in San Diego on business and found time to 'do the city tour'. Our guide pointed to an airfield and said "That airstrip was in use in 1915... there's a lot of history over there!" I don't think so! A lot of history is: A castle wall where the bricks you can see and touch were put there by a roman mason 2000 years ago. Or a church with walls that have crosses roughly gouged into them by crusaders using their swords before they set off to the 'Holy Land' ... We have infantry regiments that are older than the USA! ------------------ Dulce Et Decorum Est Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact somebody was hailing their win over Real Mallorca told me that much. Having said that, if it goes to penalty shoot-outs, we both know who is going to win ;p Don't need to be athletic for that. And I did not call the two Ukrainian players you mentioned ****, I am sure they are very able. But football is a team sport, and I haven't heard a lot of Ukraine since they got their own country, but that could just be my ignorance. Coventry more to offer than Germany? You must be jesting. When was the last time (if ever) you came here? It has got a good university but we don't even sport the name (U of Warwick, not U of Coventry). So honestly I think both the German and the English team are about equally incapable, so I won't place a bet. You'll probably win though, and I'll be depressed. ------------------ Andreas It is amazing what you can learn from a good book... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Londoner Posted June 5, 2000 Share Posted June 5, 2000 LOL, Owen, nice idea m8, n Germanboy yes, tis a shame the "bubblegum chewers" didn't listen 2 the British General Staff more would've been far less GI's in body bags if they did.

MrPeng Posted June 5, 2000 Share Posted June 5, 2000 You Brits really crack me up...I feel compelled to chime in as my name was freely used in regards to the hated smiley beasts and then one of the little... how do you sophisticated folks say it? rotters? was placed neatly at the end of the sentence. Oh yeah, I'm an anglophile from way back. Love a nice stilton, proper tea (sounds like property), bangers and mash, pale ale, fish and chips, all that. Yup, got to love our betters wot live across the pond. you forgot a dig at American beer. "its like making love in a canoe...f**king close to water!" ha ha ha jolly good. yes. OK I think I've kissed enough Brit butt. now piss off. All in good fun right? no smilies because I hate them. Yup, us gum chewing morons gotta love the UK.. just gotta. where would we be without them? Oh yeah, I almost forgot. We'd be the one and only super power in the world! Yup, for such a YOUNG country with so little history, we aren't doing so bad. You must be very proud of your little rebels. Peng ------------------ Peng sez "die a lot now." Welll is my face RED?!
