Ron Martin speaks to Chris Phillips

[Barling Magna]

Talk about greasing the palms.......The money would have been better spent supporting the Labour government of the day. Maybe then the original FF application would not have been called in and Ron could have beaten the global financial crash......

 

[GBJ]

Just an observation, no more no less, but when someone describes something as ‘fine’, it very rarely is...

How’s your dinner? It’s fine.

How was your holiday? It was fine.

How’s your relationship with Sol, Ron? It’s fine.

Did RM really say "I'm not just managing on the pitch but off the pitch as well" - Surely he employed Campbell to do the on the pitch bit. he's either deluded or a megalomaniac. The parallels with the article about Doncaster 1978 in the last 'All At Sea' are worrying.

When my missus says she's fine, when asked, I know I'm pretty close to a kick in the nuts if I keep on!

Yes. Code for acceptable. Or adequate.

Probably both, Don't think there's any question that since SC came in he's set us up as difficult to beat.Though that may well change on Saturday. The Chairman certainly hasn't helped Sol by refusing to back him in the transfer window after he said publically that he would.We all know that the kids can't do it on their own.If the two ex-Maccs. players can't get clearance to play in March then the wheels might yet come off for Sol.Who knows?

Yeah, you blokes should also be aware that when a lady asks if her outfit looks ok, never say 'you look fine' as you will always have to wait while she goes and changes.

 

[Its Only A Game]

I wonder what Sol thinks ?

It is what it is....……..

I once did worse than that. An ex girlfriend asked, ''How does it look''? About her new dress. And I said.......''What, honestly''?.....Oops.

I thought it was fine, tbh.

Ah yes, another perfect example.

Nothing says “I’m fine”, better than those words spat with pure venom & rage

I was once getting on a bus in Israel and a Palenstinian woman asked me if her bomb looked big in her dress.

Unfunny,I doubt if you've ever used buses much in Israel either.

I digress, but on a similar token is is never wise to say to a woman when she asks.... does this dress look to big/small fit me etc etc... ...I will let you know when you are all in it. Whatever she says the best answer is a very delicate issue.

Ron was seen London Bound at Prittlewell Station this morning, possibly off to meet HMRC??

Think you'll find it was John Prescott who called it in originally......probably did it to spite a Tory voting area!

Let’s hope so. It’s Wednesday afternoon and increasing worried we will go at least another week without registering players.

Don't think he has to meet them to pay them, can just transfer the money and that would / should be enough. He can then email the proof to the EFL and HMRC can confirm this.
