It's not even international break. It's the summer break. Even worse.

Obviously wait until they get home though. You'll just ruin their holiday. Stick it in a plastic bag in the fridge to stop the flies getting to it if you think they are going to get all mawkish or don't trust you and want to see the corpse.

I thought these were the only type of people who actually like cats

Seriously if you are not an old lady and find yourself having genuine affection for cats, I have questions

I'm not even a pet person but cats seem like they've got more of a personality. I don't know if there's an English term for "treudoof" (translates literally to loyally stupid) but that words seems like it was invented for dogs.

Does ****ting in the neighbour's back garden count as personality?

If Gazza did it it'd probably fall under "colourfull"

An animal having a personality definitely sounds like something a creepy cat lady would say.

Not sure if posted, but the Finances for 16/17 were published today, pretty much every team making a pre-tax profit.

nobody is ever going to argue against the glazers and kroenke just sucking money out of their clubs, but burnley, who have similar wages to revenue and much higher profit margins, are supposed to be run by less greedy people? it makes no sense and it's just people's emotions getting in the way of seeing what's obviously happening

What about Tottenham and "LevyGOAT"?

Why no criticism of them, their giant profits and huge directors' salaries?

Also, Arsenal's operating profit was 32% compared to Burnley's 20%, so not "much higher" at all. Much lower in fact.

bad news is all the hof pics have been killed and are now just dead photobucket links

Believe me there were some amazing mspaints in that thread. BTW I found it via the 2+2 GOAT thread draft, which is a really cool trip down memory lane for the olds amongst us.

The goat threads draft is hilarious even for people weren't around. Same goes for the bad poster draft.

The money-grabbing bastards at Burnley have helped bail out Aston Villa by early payment of half a million quid of the addons from the Ashley Westwood transfer.

those bastards also used the money they made from the first year back in the prem to wipe out the club's debt. Such despicable *******s who clearly are only thinking of themselves and not in the best interest of the club.

Plenty from within the Spurs fan camp. Spurs won't pay the wages to tempt/keep the bigger players and make us actually take the next step and making a CL run or really competing for the title, but Levy gave himself a 100% pay rise this year.

It is only a minority though, because you'd have to be pretty thick to criticise the way the owners are running the club during our most successful period in over 40 years.
