I'll be on holiday for the away leg anyway. I'd have been more than happy to meet fatshaft though!

Hopefully we'll get through and get a more exciting draw in the next round.

Aberdeen are mince and they ****e the bed every must win game.

Never been to Aberdeen but by all accounts it's a decent place for a day out.

I don't even get the joke tbh. Is there more to it than "THERE'S BLACK GUYS SELLING COUNTERFEIT **** IN MARBELLA!!!"?

He has basically gone full David Gold. All he needs to do now is stand in front of a helicopter for his next interview.

No, that's it.

Not funny and in poor taste.

Even better was his multi-stage non-apology apology. From ‘I thought it was funny and I don’t see the problem with it’ to ‘it was misinterpreted’ (****ing LOL) to finally actually saying sorry.

Tweeting this sort of thing should be the end of him on the Apprentice, but given his overtly sexist views are well known I doubt it.

Let her know or not?

Had to?

As you were.

I like what Spurs have done with the new stadium and the safe seating preparation.

Any idea why they've went with their own design and not the already approved seats we use at Celtic and in Germany? Spuds looking to become providers maybe?

Not 100% certain but I think Celtic only got approval as they were using a tried and tested method.
