Maybe Ashton can say hi.

Wave his Nobel Prize for Modesty at him.

Not likely to win anything for modesty. Mock away, but people like me are why you will still be able to eat in a decades time.

Should have won one for science already, but will take the world 20-40 years to catch up with me. That's not unusual in science, it's actually quite resistant to paradigm change.

Reckon I'll get the World Food Prize inside the next 5 years though.

I think you'll get the World's Silliest Man before then.

Definitely winning the modesty prize though, Paulie had that nailed.

[Olneythelonely]

That’s not really worked

[Sexual Ealing]

Your work off the gag and graft for the thread were worth much more than succeeding in what you were trying to achieve mate.

Wow.

All things said, that is a fucking spectacular post.

[edgysatsuma89]

I will think of him though when I'm eating my next corn on the cob.

[ChicagoLion]

You’re a fucking fantasist mate.

That’s pretty insulting without knowing any facts.

[Stu]

Agree it’s not very nice, thought it would encourage some facts though. And ranting.

[eamonn]

Er, is there some Off Topic context to this...?

[Matt C]

 The “transfer speculation” thread. Always  eclectic.

[Rigadon]

BBC gossip page has a link to the Daily Hate saying we’re in for Cunha with Duran going to Al Nassir.  There does see to be something going on with Duran.  Weird.

Am wondering if Monaco was the last straw as he clearly didn’t follow instructions

Socially useful stuff like that won't win you any popularity points stuff here, though, I'm afraid. Have you considered becoming a Communist or humblebragging about all the drugs you take?

[ADVILLAFAN]

Trouble is, if you sell Duràn for 90M, Wolves would immediately say "we're not selling Cunha for less than 90M".

[PeterWithe]

I think he had a hard hitting daytime chat show back in the day

Haha!

I’m ashamed to say he’s a relative. My Nan’s cousin.

Edit - Killroy-Silk. Not the Turkish lad.

Always had a slight resemblance to Michael Hestletine.

Edit - Not your Nan.
