De Vries On The Move

[FantasyFox]

I saw it last night, that's all my dear HF....

I love it when you're a bit frumpy.

Frumpy?

1. A girl or woman regarded as dull, plain, or unfashionable.
2. A person regarded as colorless and primly sedate.

I don't think a man that leaps around in a ginger wig and kilt swinging his todger in rhythm to Abba tracks can be considered Frumpy.

The second might fit me:icon_lol:

 

[FantasyFox]

should that be 'primarily sedated'?

Whenever I watch it though he does really remind me of one of my mates, an uncanny resemblance.

I could be wrong, but I think both of those deals would be against league rules.

Although I have to say I do admire your comedic skill, you're obviously very talented. Have you had any of your work published?

I'm hoping city have already swapped him for a packet of custard creams, might be of more use. No sorry thats a bit harsh on him, I've seen worse players, probably a handful at least

I know it's incredibly difficult to avoid joining in on such an hilarious comparison as a packet of custard creams but in all seriousness I can't imagine them being too robust if, for example, it was raining.

Let's face it, the ability not to crumble during inclement weather is a vital prerequisite in a modern footballer.

Hi Macky

You seem to have missed the irony of foxysir's contribution. A pedant would tell you that Jacobs do not make custard creams; it is cream crackers that are their speciality biscuit. Clearly then, a Jacobs custard cream would be a very valuable item - a whole packet of them so rare that it would be difficult to put a price on.

I come to the conclusion that foxysir, whilst appearing to be a critic of MdV, is in fact his greatest fan. This is in fact borne out by his first contribution. I initially made the same mistake as you in understanding his word 'crips' as a typo for 'crisps'. It is now clear to me that we have made a mistake. It was a typo, yes - but a typo for 'Cripps' - that is Harry Cripps, the Millwall cult-hero of the 1960s. Now I'm not sure what was in Harry Cripp's bags but he was a hard man, so you can be sure that it would be worth having.

Foxysir certainly had you fooled!

You're absolutely right boc, Mr foxysir is obviously a genius of Brobdingnagian proportion.
Although I believe that 'crip' could be some form of gang reference.

So they are exported to the USA.

Foxysir was clearly being even more cryptic in his references than appeared to the casual observer. To cram so many apposite references into two brief messages is worthy of a Nobel prize

 

[Macky]

Which is also where the 'crips' originate from.

Why do the fench call crisps sheep? tossers

This Foxysir guy is quite someting - I think later on tonight if he makes a return, I may ask him about this, clearly he knows much:
