It shouldn't be forgotten, however, that Nathan is as thick as pig-poo and he has a to learn his four-times-table.

As Soccer AM tends to prove most weeks, professional footballers tend to be overgrown children. Man Utd have the right idea in banning their players from sites such as Twitter, Facebook and other sites frequented by sad acts.

I know he's only young but you would expect him to be on a decent enough wage in the first place so he shouldn't need to sell those tickets... Looks like Martin O'Neil will be giving him a seeing to!!

Indeed those are the very words my wife frequently uses to describe the amount of time I spend on shrimpsvoices :?

The thing is, if the club reach the play off final this year and give you five tickets to Wembley, reinforcing they were for you, family & friends only, would you come on shrimpsvoices and advertise them to the highest bidder?

There was a quality Face Book 'resignation' doing the rounds a while a go where some girl slagged off her work and her boss having forgotten she'd added him as a friend... and that she was a week short of completing her probationary period! He replied, pointing this out and that she didn't need to come in on Monday.

I ve seen that. As far as i can remember she said her boss was perving over her, and in his reply he told her he was gay and never hid that fact! silly girl.

on the same note, www.lamebook.com is well worth a read at lunch time. its very funny!
