Fantastic to learn you're alive and well Marko and I hope life has been treating you well.
Despite the fact you're f'n nuts sometimes you have been missed on here, hope to see you pop online a few times in the near future.
I'm just thinking about bet's we may have had, there must have been one somewhere along the way....... Ah, was it a grand on Town finishing higher than 10th ?

Holy crap!!!
Lets see, how long has it been marko? Oh yes, we had a bet for hats that Ipswich would make the playoffs and seeing how they did, I won ours! Or have you been watching results?

All ok Charnwood thankfully. I hauled my a5s away from the Internet for a while, too much happening with family life and not enough hours in the day for that and work. I missed the porn but fk all else.
I did see the results though, Ohio, you sly dog! I see the team who ITFC were beating 4-1 @ HT not so long ago are in the Play Off final. MM the fk out!
I also read your pm about the Spartans. I watched the game against Stanford and I now own a "Rose Bowl" winners t shirt! Haha. Excellent.

They played really well this year, and beat Ohio State. I am really starting to dislike them!
Where did you get the shirt? I will pm you on the hat.

I got the "T" from a shop in a very famous Edinburgh Street by the name of "C0ckburn Street"......, now before you laugh at that and say "They might as well have called it "Syphilis infested bellend street"....., it's actually pronounced "Co burn"
And for the record......, before you ask........, I wouldn't know if the end of the c0ck burns when riddled with sex diseases.

I am really glad you straightened out the pronounciation for me.
It reminds me when the MLS started, two teams were named "Kansas City Whiz" and "Dallas Burn." You can imagine what the ESPN announcers were doing when they played, or when a NASCAR driver was driving in the 90s named d*ck Trickle. No lie.
They are mercifully called Sporting KC and Dallas FC now.

Pretty sure my poor old late father in law suffered from "D1ck Trickle" before he died. The passenger seat in my van certainly feckin stunk after a few trips with him, God rest his soul.
I remember the Whiz and the Burn. Pretty sure they were on an old FIFA PS1 game.

Welcome back Marko, glad you are alive and kicking mate. We did have a bet of £50 on Forfar staying up which they did but if you are a bit strapped for cash right now i can wait a wee while laddie.

Thanks Y'all.
Bluemike, how does 41.6 Forfar bridies sound? 50 quid worth @ £1-20 a bridie? I suppose I could eat the other 0.6 and make it a round 41. I'll supply 28 20mg omeprazole tabs with this for free. Let me know.
KL....., trust me buddy....., if a Hearts shirt happened to find its way into my house, I'd pass that on to you, no worries whatsoever. Might need washed though.
Dazzz67...., thanks bud. To be very brief, we (wife & me) decided that work and the internet were taking over our lives. Bit of a communication breakdown back in December/January, ...., mainly me working all the hours and then ranting and raving on Hibs sites. Not a good combination for a marriage. So moderation is the answer. Log on every now and then, talk bollocks, then p*ss off for a week! Haha.

Hey Marko, I would give you a great big virtual hug, but I don't want to give you the nasty cold I have.
Welcome back ..... as far as I can ascertain ..... no-one has missed you.
Cheers Dave

At last......someone with a touch of class returns; we'll all have to up our games now
Really good to have you back Marko - remember everything in moderation (see small print for exclusions!). Bugger me, there is no small print.....
(Sent btw from a hotel next door to Leicester City's ground - just conducting a recce for future visits!!!)

Marko good to hear from you.
I OWE YOU £20 mate. You had Man City to finish highest and I had Chelsea so congratulations again. You will have to let me know how to get the money to you or we could go again next season, it is entirely up to you.

Stayed in that hotel mate, fairly basic but functional ie it has a bed

Guys....., said this before, but you were obviously not listening...... I'm not gay. But my boyfriend definitely is and I really love the "off the shoulder" dress he wore the other night. Very nice.
Derick...... Lol, don't mean to be a d*ck or anything, but am I right in saying that this bet was a double or quits bet? Now....., I'm no mathematician or anything, but could it be £40 you are due? 1/ Everton finishing higher than Pool season before last and now this one?
Up to you mate but I'm definitely willing to go for the hat trick for myself, double or quits bet again and my bet would be that Man City win the league again. I believe that City are going to go on a title winning roll for a few years. Sup to you buddy. If you have a different bet that you fancy , let me know.

I do believe that is correct. Ok lets go again. I will try and think of something before the season starts that suits us both.

Hey Marko do you fancy predicting who will be relegated from the prem and the championship? The one with the most correct teams out of 6, wins. Double or quits on the £40 i owe you? You can have first pick as a double winner.

Derick, that's a great bet. Best one so far in my opinion. Ok, I'll get thinking about that and put in my 3 Prem, 3 Champ relegation selections on this thread, ASAP. Nice one buddy.

Ohio, got to be honest, I really don't like the MLS. I've tried to get into it a few times, but for a few reasons, it's not happening. The commentators play a large part. I only like hearing "deeeefence" during US Football, not soccer. There are other things that get on my tits about it too, but what I'm saying is....., It'd be wrong accepting a "Crew" hat. And as you know, I'm an all things Michigan fan, so all things "buckeye" is definitely out!!
Here is an idea. Scrap last seasons bet. And what about this..... Think of a bet and if you win, I send you a six pack of Irn Bru and a box of Scottish Tablet. And if I win, you send me a six pack of the best Root beer, and some decent beef jerky? Can't get enough of the Root beer.
