    The teacher once asked Jim Whyte "what is 2 plus 2?" He replied "yes" and was correct.

    I'd have said the opposite, tbh. I think she seems like good craic. Especially on A League Of Their Own!

    If watching Jim Whyte on the news fills you with fun then more power to you. I fail to see how he is any better than anyone else on that channel.

    I would love it if Sky announced tonight that he's being transferred tonight to ESPN.

    No I knew a fact that was widely reported and used the first link I found on a Google search for "Georgie Thompson Arrested".

    FWIW I haven't bought a tabloid since I was 17 and only ever buy The Guardian, The Observer and The Irish Times.

    Mick McCarthy said it best on SSN yesterday:

    Something along the lines of :

    "Oh yeah, I'll be listening to Jim Whyte tomorrow night. The TV will be turned off though".

    MM is a legend :)

    One of these days someone will ring his phone when at the same time he's pretending to speak to someone on the other end. That's if it's even turned on :rolleyes:

    More genius from Jim White: 'The clock is ticking...it always does on transfer deadline day'. Got news for you Jim, it always does every day.

    You nugget.
