One of the benefits of being âsupport staffâ at a University, you donât have to have any contact with the filthy tax dodgers.

The FA have refused to ratify Adrienne Silvaâs transfer to Leicester as the fax arrived 14 seconds too late on the deadline day. He will have to wait until January before he can play for them. Is it just me or is this incredibly small minded?
Nope, they had 3 months to sort their shit out and they decided to try and rush it through on deadline day!!
A deadline is a deadline, if you start letting it slip how far do you go?

A Fax? Blimey, when did anyone last use a fax?
Time for this little blast from the past. âA fax? I donât think weâve got any faxes here granddadâ
Maybe he wants a bag on his head.

I said fax because my brain is hard wired to old technology! 
But 14 seconds! I have forwarded an email to my wife sitting next to me and sometimes it takes an hour before she gets it. I am all for sticking by the rules but letting a guy rot on the sidelines for 4 or 5 months for the sake of a few seconds is a bit harsh!
Iâm sorry @sadoldgit but I stil donât agree with you, they had 3 months to sort this out, 3 months!!!
Maybe this little lesson will stop clubs leaving things so lateâŚ
I wonder. If it had been Barcelona, Real Madrid or Man U/Man City, do you think FIFA would have been so harsh?
I think they would have been just as harsh. Theyâre a stickler for the rules. Rules is rules!

I donât get this, surely he did not sign then and can play for his old club. But agree a deadline is a deadline. Perhaps use an email next time?
His old club say they donât want him and a sale had been agreed so they want the money!
Heâs in a weird footballing limbo between 2 clubs
When youâre supposed to be moving offices so make no meetings for the week and so are stuck at home
But your phone keeps ringing at random moments so going to the mall/beach/pub is impossible
Hipsters & âMBAâsâ
You tell them âDo NOT sign a lease on a new office UNLESS you have guaranteed parking availableâ They go oh yes all taken care of no problem, plenty of sand parking, can rent extra spaces. âNo I TOLD you get it put in the contractâ - oh yes we will. They donât
We move in.
2 days later they rope off the Sand Parking. They then say "no it is not possible to rent extra parking spaces. So now it seems I will have to take a taxi every day (or work from home)
Meanwhile because they are âtrendyâ they go for that whole Industrial feel of an office - no ceiling tiles etc. And of course it is deafening because we need to have an A/C running.
And I say âwtf were you thinking?â - our clients will like it they say. 1st client comes to visit and we have to leave the office and go sit outdoors (38C 90% humidity) at the local supermarket, in direct sunlight because neither of us could hear each other speak.
And then I have a hangiver and have that fvcking racket going non stop.
I mean the noise is bad but the parking? I just looked at them and said âso you trusted a Real Estate sales guy?â and they say - yes of course.

TV coverage of South American football.
Shouting 'goooooooooaaaaaalllll!!!â was funny in 1970 - and suitable if Zico is banging a 93rd minute winner in off the bar from 30 yards.
But shouting persistently for the most average of tap-ins is fucking annoying - as is showing replays of Messiâs goals five times rather than cracking on with the frigging highlights.
