TPAFKA Jersey 2 Posted May 13, 2021 Report Share Posted May 13, 2021 Yes, I’m in the Slarti is being a pedantic arse here camp. That’s 3 against 1 Slarti so I think the rules are that you now need to apologise profusely to Top Cat, put a dunce’s cap on and stand in the corner for half an hour with your trousers round your ankles. 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slarti Posted May 13, 2021 Report Share Posted May 13, 2021 Yeah, as much as I see what you trying to do, I'm with Top Cat here too. His point is perfectly reasonable and you know very well what he's trying to say you wee trouble-making rascal you. You've got to remember he's not as far as I am aware a mathematician and isn't presenting a formal proof complete with definitions. He's just making a comparative point that we haven't had this good a season since a time in the very distant past when you were still able to sustain an erection without external aids such as splints, pills and so forth. He's actually gone beyond the call of duty to convert 2 point games into 3 points in a futile attempt to satisfy your pedantry. If I had known in advance he was going to try, I'd have stopped him from wasting his time. I'm with him on this. 1981 we're looking at I think (if you include 2 Cup semi finals). ETA. Blimey. We were still shutting shops at half day on a Wednesday and not allowing anything to open on a Sunday. Yes, I’m in the Slarti is being a pedantic arse here camp.

[emoji106]Yeah, well, I don't really care what your opinions are, I've never been one to court popularity - I'd rather be right than popular and, in this instance, I get my wish. [emoji14]And, I think our Jersey friend just wants to see my bare arse. [emoji1787] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aw naw. Next thing we know, Balfy will come along to score the equaliser. And can I just state for the record, that when I suggested the appropriate penance for Slarti, I had absolutely no idea that the poor wee fella couldnae afford underpants. 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or is it 3-3? I’m losing track…..Not so much of a pile on, they're more of a tag team. However, if you actually want the count, your involvement makes it 4-2 against us - but I'm sure we could take them. [emoji16] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm getting fed up giving free reading and comprehension lessons on here - I said he "wants to", I didn't say that he would.Any more of these failures with basic English and you two can go sit with B**.

If both statements are correct, then the first is rendered redundant and/or obfuscatory. So you were never living in Paisley... so what is your big team, then? Also are you suggesting that "where slarti is coming from" is also not Paisley? I'm at a loose end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So who was you local team growing up? Or are you not willing to divulge the city/town/village/caravan/tent you grew up in? I've just checked Bet 365, no odds available. In other words, no chance.

[emoji3]No. Using a football analogy, having you in the team is like being 3 men down.

stlucifer Posted May 14, 2021 Report Share Posted May 14, 2021 (edited) 22 hours ago, Slarti said: What he did afterwards is totally irrelevant to my response to his post (shown below) where he only mentioned "points tally" and games "to spare". It's not really difficult to understand. He made specific points, I addressed only those points, so what is your issue with it? Are you suggesting we've had more than 44 points in any season Topcat mentioned? Update: Best points tally in a top flight season since the 80’s 44. Any other season we've had this? With one game to spare! We have one more game to play. Correct. I don't see anywhere in this statement where he was wrong.

More to the point, show me what I said that was wrong.Compared to a 36 game season, we haven't got a game to spare, we have played one more.What exactly is your point here, you just seem to have jumped in trying to start an argument.

Are you fed up arguing with yourself? Where did Topcat say the number of games were the same? Christ. You're having a mare here mate. As I said at first outing. You were, at the very least, being pedantic. I'd quit while I was behind if I were you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
