Yes from the same bale that is used to feed the team of donkeys who pass
themselves off as Kilmarnock Football team

No we need all the players we can get. Not even the arrival of Jesus (
Sanjuan ) was enough to save us.

And the *manager* is still for sale. I'm sure he is a plant, put there to
keep Hearts above us at all times.

Kevin.

Now is that more or less than the probability of not finding WMD's in
Iraq that's what I'd like to know.

Who works out these ****ing figure anyway? I mean - is anyone going to
dispute the figure of 909,000 to 1?

Dammit, there goes my trip to the Faroe Islands in 2015 for
the total solar eclipse. Need to cancel that booking now......

Oh dear! Read "Watch, Watch" by Terry Pratchett - Million-to-One

I reckon that the chance of it ALWAYS happening is a million to one.
Give or take........
