General discussion / Re: THE CIVIL SERVICE
December 04, 2007, 11:49:37 PM
Whilst the Civil Service provides a role of processing all the country's needs for government related work, it largely exists to provide work for people who would be virtually unemployable in the private sector.    I'm not labelling them all as unemployable however there's a significant majority number who on the basis of their productivity alone would not earn enough to exist in the private sector.

For Celtic (or Rangers for that matter) to mix it in the last 16 of the Champions League is no mean feat given their revenue.  Sunderland & Derby will take £30M minimum from getting tanked week in week out in the premiership.  Celtic get about £3M max for their domestic endeavours.   Not easy competing in the UEFA Cup on that budget never mind the CL.

QuoteMight sound like a silly question, but who is she?

Wasn't she the one who sang "When a man loves a woman"  All time classic!

I cannot believe that those usless fenian tramps in RTE aren't showing the Celtic match tonight!  Good grief!!

QuoteThierry Henry was the best player by miles on the planet for 2-3 years and didn't win it.....but Michael Owen has???

Henry in a one trick show-pony.  Michael Owen never won it

Wayne promised so much and delivered so little and now he needs the money badly.  His injury problems didn't help his career however his biggest undoing was allowing that mill-bag of a missus of his out of the house.  No doubt she'll be running around in her pyjamas on fight-night giving interviews.

QuoteIf the likes of Gerrard and Scholes are still not recognised by some as World Class, then it is an insult to even use McGeadys name in the same sentence.

Some might say it's an insult to Scholes to use Gerrard's name in the same sentance.

The best thing about Mascherano was his association with Tevez.   He looks like he can't be bothered at Liverpool.

Ronaldo is the best player in the premiership by a considerable distance and along with Messi & Kaka forms the 3 best players in the world.

Any truth they have also arrested Jamie Redknapp and the rest of the Liverpool team from the 1990's for impersonating footballers?  :D

The Mayo ladies team of the early 2000's have to get a mention as well.   They were as potent a force as either Cross or Kerry.

He won't be out of work for long.  The Birmingham City job is there for the taking.  Would he bring Gerrard with him tho? :-\

QuoteI was trying my best today to defend John O'Shea in work today after it was announced he has signed a new 3 year deal.

How could United ever get rid of the lad after he scored the injury time winner at the Kop end last season?? ;D :D ;D
