Thanks John 9 months on the forum & a compliment. I normally only get mildly chastised by the administrator.

It takes a fairly generous interpretation of the word "General" for this to count as "Countdown: General". Charlie - why don't you start a "Countdown: eff all to do with it" section? Maybe we could call it something like "Off-Topic". I imagine such a section ...

Big deal, it snowed in Yorkshire on Friday night. I know because me and my dad drove through it on Saturday to get down to Stoke-On-Trent.

Hopefully this will beat James Robinson's attempt to post the earliest "winter's here - it's official" spoiler, and so thwart his attempt to have the earliest day/month/season/year/decade spoilers. It's snowing outside my window just now so it's officially winter as of today. I won't be of...

Whilst admittedly the first few times the 'lets start the spoilers thread early to piss James off' joke was quite funny (whether or not it actually did piss him off); it's now getting quite boring and predictable.

How about a few to even up the Sun (banned in Liverpool & many fire-stations) columnists who pop up regularly?

Tommy Sheridan
Jimmy Reid
Dennis Skinner
George Galloway
Derek Hatton
Jim Sillars
Arthur Scargill
Any other likely Left-Wingers (in the political rather than the football sense)

Davy Affleck

It's like when you try to fare dodge when riding a train - you keep thinking "what if I get caught?", and you can't concentrate. It's never worth it. If you do get caught you can end up with a criminal record . Are they giving out Susan Boyle records to fare dodgers instead of a fine now?

I thought I would post this early, if only to beat James Robinson.
Ryan tries to take another giant step for mankind & towards his octochamp quest.
