Ah, so that's why when it was posted the first time, it was possibly the most thanked post ever on boards.

You seriously lack humour man.

Balls,I did not realize it was posted here before I genuinely taught I had a scoop.

Lads please don't address that post from SOTS again. I don't want anyone here to get into trouble for what I'm sure is perceived by some to be internet bullying.

If he's gone he's gone, and has said as much.

If he does however make another appearance he will be getting some strong words about his actions.

Cheers

Just seen a post by mink_man in another forum, and I'm a bit worried that we've all moved on. His coming back might not be the event we all anticipated it would be. He's bigging up his return in his sig, updates it every now and then, so he's clearly looking forward to it. The only thing is, and I never thought I'd say this, but I couldn't really care.

Mink_man, I've failed you.

I just happened to spot that I'm exactly the same age as Rangers' Kris Boyd, born on the same day.

He's scored 165 league goals.
I work in a call centre.

We'll call it a draw.

This is why I hate Michael Owen. He was the first player to "make it big" who was younger than me. It was then I realised that I hadn't got what it takes.

Ah that tale stretches back long into the lore of the OTT Thread, only a trained bard can recite the tale with the appropriate dramatic prose.

Ha, I had the same epiphany with Aaron Lennon, who's a few days younger than me.

I could be wrong, but something to do with this perhaps?

I'd be surprised if this was the end though.

Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test

He strikes me more as the type of person who would be in stitches laughing at the sight of a mere butterfly.

And would then be taken for ice cream as a reward.
