Shame, I thought that "Out with Mark Venus" might be the name of a new ITV series. In episode 1 he takes Jeremy Corbyn to a greyhound meet; episode 2 he takes Holly Willoughby paintballing...

Surely some mistake?

This is the line where I believe professional fees could lie. The average means nothing over such a wide spread of salaries. 105 managers and players for £3.57m. We have maybe 50 players and say 15 coaches and managers. You have to add in Fisher & friends and an office manager but I cannot...

Police in Leicester found a cannabis farm & smuggled heroin; £200k of stolen goods; people trafficking and over 15 guns in a house behind the public library. Local residents were shocked: "We didn't know we had a library".

I didn't see your reply before I posted. How odd that we chose the same adjectives.

I understand your cynicism - but it's not what you think. Dark, moody, dystopian and no robots running around. You may be surprised.

Nope. I knocked a spreadsheet when I first saw the numbers. Even with the most outrageous assumptions I couldn't get close to the costs in the accounts. Cannot prove a thing; have no evidence; but I smell a rat.

At least now Reda's gone we have got some piss though.

Too true - I could see this coming. EU disappears into its own rectum; Labour swerves to the mad left and you get the nasties as a result. I'm hoping that we've seen some signs that Trump isn't going to do half of what he promised.

Ha ha. Don't bite people.

Did you use the wrong spelling of discrete/discreet deliberately because we were talking numbers? Top marks if you did.

What kind of a person posts this? Let's look at the evidence: 1. New member with 19 posts; 2. "please keep swearing to a minimum there are women on this forum and it is a bit common" 3. Ludicrous claims And now a joke. Hmmm, methinks I smell a troll. Did you remember to use a different PC...

I don't even need to run that through a model. A sample size of 10 on a population of 1 million? Hypothesis failed. And even that assumes that you selected them randomly from the population, and didn't, for example, just select 10 people who had already met your hypothesis. I don't believe...

No, I'm a statistician. How big is your sample size?

It never ends. When the Berlin wall came down I thought that we were starting a new era of peace, love and understanding. But it seems that people just can't stop being horrible to each other.

She didn't let in a million terrorists. She let in a million people, many of whom were genuine asylum seekers, some economic migrants and some who were terrorists.

I don't believe those numbers in the accounts come close to the salaries of the team, a few coaches and backroom staff - we must be paying a big chunk somewhere else in "salaries" . Otherwise, as you say, it doesn't add up. The club breaks even; even after paying £x for consultancy is my guess.

Bloody hell it's like a playground on this thread. May I be the first to remark that "what you say is what you are?"
