I've a two week break until I start my new job (start Monday 24th). Any suggestions as to what I should do?

Don't stay home watching tv series or playing computer games!

If you can afford it, go on a European city break, I recommend Lisbon, Barcelona, or Berlin, you might be able to find a cheap flight to somewhere nice anyway even at short notice, stay in a cheap hostel and live on bread and water. Or check out some of the many lovely spots around Ireland that you haven't seen before.

This. I like this. Even if I only day tripped, it'd be fun. Might see if an unemployed friend of mine fancies a few road trips.

I'm in Liverpool at the moment and going to see Liverpool vs arsenal tomorrow (technically today) and I am far to excited and like a kid at Christmas can't sleep

I detest arsenal so I'll be on a rampage tomorrow can't wait. I'm not sure if this post is a bragging post cause I'm going to the match or a complaining post cause I can't sleep either way you catch my drift

Ah I can relate, got me a ticket to Man U v Liverpool next month. Hope United get their act together by then.

Reganio 2 · 08-02-2014 01:31AM

Some work getting them tickets I'd imagine I'll be sitting in the Kop gonna be some experience. Haven't been over in a while anytime I go I usually get something from recent memory I was at a Europa league game against anzi got to see A Stewart downing goal. Was over for a game against Stoke which was Luis Suarez debut which he scored in and years ago was over for Liverpool v Valencia the year before rafa took over when he was Valencia manager.

What do you detest about Arsenal?

Reganio 2 · 08-02-2014 01:42AM

Manager mainly, their fans, their whiny players all goes back to 01. Fa cup really ever since then I've hated them they threw their toys out of the pram with the reaction to Owens 2 late goals. Just generally dislike them. Winger is probably the main reason.

Valencia were great that nite, was it Aimar that got that well worked goal by them?
Bit nervous about today, playing 2 up top & Gerrard in the holding role always has me nervous against top sides.

Reganio 2 · 08-02-2014 08:45AM

I don't remember if he scored but i do remember aimar having an absolute stormer and making everything look incredibly easy.

What a win against Wales from Ireland . Lest hopefully they can keep it up for the rest of the 6 Nations

Angron · 08-02-2014 04:29PM

Wales were largely out-classed in that game, which is nice for us

Incredible stuff only way to describe it was fairly sure I was dreaming just utter shock from everyone. Was sitting next to an arsenal fan as well who left at half time

Diabhal Beag · 08-02-2014 06:20PM

Not a hope in hell they'll beat France in Paris. Just can't see a Grand Slam. Great start though.

Angron · 08-02-2014 06:21PM

This Scotland-England match has been pretty boring. Scotland have been quite awful.

FYP there.

Angron · 08-02-2014 06:43PM

Well yeah, the main thing that changes is the degree to which they are awful.

It must go down as one of footballs great mistakes, Mourinho wanted this job and United for absurd reasons went for the man who has never won anything and he is painfully out of his depth.

He has to go, players deserve some blame but it is the same squad who won the league at a canter last year.

Mourinho, while a scumbag, was smart enough to know the United job was a poisoned chalice. Nobody was going to do well. The entire United squad just isnt that great. Fergie had them playing well above their level for years. Mourinho or Moyes, it would have been more or less the same story without massive, massive investment.

In fairness I think that could have been fergies doing he told the board to make moyes his successor and who are they to argue with fertile, while fergie knows moyes is going to struggle and thus inflates his ego and everybody calls for him to come back and people think he was an absolute god to get results with this squad.

I dunno about that, Mourinho is fast approaching atg territory as manager so its possible he could have done well at Old Trafford. Certainly would back a man who has won everywhere he has gone over David Moyes who has won zero in his whole career.

I do think he wanted it as well, his interview after Real beat United was a come and get me I thought. Anyways I am sure he will be happy enough he is at Chelsea.

Ferguson played a huge part in getting Moyes the job so for that reason he won't be fired until next season despite abysmal results and tactical ineptitude which indicate he is as much out of his depth as hodgson when in charge of the Pool.:pac:

I don't get this. how can a grown man and another person who is 35 think drinking so much would not at least seriously hurt you???

gnfnrhead · 10-02-2014 12:06PM

Would have had a job offered to me after an interview today if I had a PSA licence. Nearly double my previous wage and a much more secure position in a better company.

Annoying thing is I inquired about the course required for the licence a few months ago but never heard back.

Mourinho was a complete and utter failure at Real Madrid. Yes, the standards are much higher, but he was shown up big time. The press didnt fall for his crap either like they do in England. He won only a single league title and no European cups in three years at the biggest club in the world. That's a failure no matter what way you look at it. Even an appearance in the Champions League final would have been some consolation.

What kind of job does a PSA license get you.
