Females in general, really. Although yeah there is a crumb of innuendo in there if you want it! I suppose as a manager I used other lies, ie motivational tools and incentives, to get people to do things they didn't want to (both genders). Or even to think they wanted to do things they didn't...

Isn't that a quote from "The Shadow Line"? It's what Glickman tells Gabriel to do when he meets him in England. Best not then, it doesn't end well for him... Is it too late to change my username to Gatehouse?

Oh, and O.P.-you missed the "i" out of "ruin" in the thread title :claping hands:

So I'm not a-loan in having given up hope? I'll get me coat..

Yes and much more scientific things than that, too. I think Thorn has been very explicit about this in at least 3 interviews. He spoke about both Gael and Cyrus in terms of performance and training etc, all the things you mention-then explained how their "stats backed that up, they've dropped...

I'm not sure, I was just doing a massive search for articles on football clubs and liquidation. I read up on everyone from Aldershot and Maidstone to Pompey, Palace and Plymouth last night, and this was the most useful thing I found by far. In fact looking around their site, I think it may be...

I've used such logic to make women of all ages do things they didn't really want to....

Make her go, and make her stay until the end, if she wants to go to her Nuneaton thingy. Tell her that life is about learning to compromise, and sometimes you have to do things you don't really want to in order to make people you love happy :D

Well I don't think they'd even ask...they'd probably tell AT they would, then as soon as he's out of the boardroom they'd all collapse into guffaws of laughter! Got to remember: whilst the board aren't SISU as such, they may as well be. Many of them are SISU placemen, most notably Ken who...

I think he meant the Torchomatic one. Although he did make it clear that was "background history".

I wish someone would tell Ken that if it's true...and I hope it is true. "Spivs" is about right.

Terrifying stuff, and spookily exactly what I was reading about on the Supporters Direct website before coming on here: http://www.supporters-direct.org/wiki/index.php?title=Handbook:Company_Law I strongly advise reading the sections on ground ownership. Obviously that isn't us now, but it...

Agreed that the liability of McPake and Bells contracts outweigh their sale value, as I argued the other day, and agreed that SISU hold the purse strings. Ranson complained strongly about Igwe holding the power on the board, and also that SISU would never give him any long-term budget and made...

Spot on! That's exactly what Keogh is talking about.

That said, any sane man would value him at higher than Borrowdale, surely? And Best had hardly played at our level when we signed him. We should have just showed them that Sky scouting reort from a few years back, that'd have boosted his value!

Because familiarity does not breed acceptance? I know they've been lying to us for a long time now, but that doesn't make it OK, and doesn't make me any the less angry. Apathy is the greatest danger of all. Believe it or not, there are plenty of folk who do swallow this crap, hence my Dr Fox...

Ha ha, Radio 5 just had a live interview with a bunch of Libyan-born lads on The Edgeware Road celebrating the Gaddafi death...asked where they'd come from this evening to join in the events, they all cry "COVENTRY!!"

10th day at work in a row tomorrow! Then a joyous weekend off, ahh. I should get to bed really...but Scrubs is on in a minute.

Well it makes you wonder what Ken is talking about...he treats the "seeking investment" thing like a minor sideshow in that interview, yet surely that is the number one priority if they are serious about wanting the stadium. And if there is a dialogue with the council, the council are obligated...
