SEE YOU! A brand spanking new modern fitba thread 2020/21

fuck off mate. You've dropped a right bollock on this one, now drop the left on Joe Biden

 

Hummmmm.
You dispute the brilliance and accuracy of Mustard's Predictions??
You think The Mustards aint down with this shit?

 

Messi to City...........

 

Geezer came to my door today, and, cutting a long story short showed me a page on a phone that gave the name of a woman and my address.

The woman in question has been dead for 3 years and never lived at the address.

He said he was there to do the gas engineering. We have no gas engineering scheduled.

I didn't know at the time that the woman in question was a friend of my landlady and had been dead for years.

The guy looked stunned when I answered the door and went so far as to ask "Wasn't there an old woman"..........

The dead lady was 77 when she died and my landlady is 86.

I suggested that the woman he was looking for lived elsewhere on the street.

Dirty Roma he was.

I reported it to the cops for all the good it will do.

 

So what's the scam, gain access to the property and case it for valuables or something else?

 

I don't know, it just doesn't stack up.

Been racking my fucking head all day over it.

He literally jumped out of his fucking skin when I answered the door. Then he specifically mentioned "The Old Woman".

I mean...............he's got the name of a woman the owner used to know, that never lived there, and died three years ago.......who also happened to be the sister to the guy the owner/occupier was once engaged to, back in the mists of time. He probably doesn't even know that.

That's it.

Like maybe 20 people in the country today would KNOW that name and put a face on it and somehow link it to the address in question and even then it would be hard as fuck cos they never lived there, never rented there.

She did send WINE there once as part of her work. She sold wine.

So somebody got papers....... but they EASILY could have gotten the name of the actual owner by that same token.

And this guy is stood in front of me telling he's got a gas engineer ready to go to work at that address, right now, and the name he's got for the job is of a woman that's been dead for 3 years??

Search me.

 

My best bet right now is that the fucking idiots were sloppy, somehow concluded that the dead person lived at this address, and were going to get in on grounds of a gas leak and then basically rob the old dear blind or extract money from her.

But again they could have got the real name off the internet fairly handy, and if they were casing the place, they'd have seen her leave.

I am putting it down to a shoddy badly-executed plan but it's a very unsatisfactory conclusion.

 

Boiler scam
A company that claims to service boilers have been ringing people, claiming that their boiler guarantee has run out, and are taking bank details to renew the guarantee. They call themselves The Boiler Company UK, but never service the boilers once they've taken the money. They hold a lot of personal information about people and seem to know when people's service date is due. Trading Standards is currently looking into this scam and in the meantime, never give any personal or financial details to a cold caller.

Could be the above. The boiler is YEARS overdue for a service. Still doesn't stack up how they got the dead ladies name involved in all of it.

Here's another one

Beware of doorstep scammers
Residents are warned of doorstep scammers taking advantage of the coronavirus crisis. An incident in East Sheen involved two people posing as an organisation called 'Take you for a walk' and encouraging an elderly resident to go with them for a walk.

They carried canvas bags with the logo on, fortunately she didn't go with them. Please be wary of scammers during this time.

 

Most burglars who knock on doors are just seeing if anyone is home. No answer, they kick in the door. When someone answers they'll just bring up some fictitious name and when told they don't live there simply leave. Gaining access to the place first to look around rarely is needed although depending on the property it might happen.

If they presented themselves as gas engineers i'm guessing that's wherein the scam lies. Who knows what "database" they got their info from but it sounds like they're targeting the elderly who often are more likely to fall for the con.

 

100% agreed ...........what I cannot get my head around is the name they used. Could be a total coincidence, could be they got their wires crossed, could be they just picked any old name associated with the address in order to make a sham story.

He might have seen her leave and knocked, waited for no answer, then let himself in.

Funny thing is he had this shit on his phone screen and I didn't see anything else like you'd see "DHL" or "USPS" or the like.

It was basically an image rather than a page.

I'm actually afraid to go down to my garage now for fear the cunt comes back.

 

Back to 'orrible over designed 1993 style efforts this season

Altho not the new sellik, that's a timeless belter

 

WTF are you doing on BBC Newsround? You got a better shot of Nick Griffin reading The Jewish Chronicle than any bright-spot reading that sheeeiyat.

 

See typical newsround article- discussing Womens football as if it was the same as Football. It's not. It's not related. A controverial goal in womens football has FUCK. ALL. to do with the Football results. It's an unrelated sport.

 

You would have hoped somebody close to him would have advised against this.

Too many yes men and toxic positivity. In every celebrity's entourage there should be a least one "no man" that could prevent such things from happening.

 

I would be that No Man. I would stamp my NO right on his fuckin head.

You might have heard of the V-Mann..... Well I'm the fucking NO MAN.

 

Arsenal go top. Pal Arse second. Liverpool, THE CHAMPIONS, are next. I got a tenner says they don't win today.

 

Pretty good actually.

 

"How to Wind Up Irish", by the Liverpool Back 4.

 

Back......BACK.....BAAAACCKKK!!

 

Not really, not quite. I quaked when I saw this fixture as Leeds run on ignorance, and right now they are full of it. 15 games in they'll be on their knees looking for pennies down the back of he bleachers to keep the lights on as the evenings draw in.

Liverpool have looked shit at the back all fucking Pre-Season.

Joe Gomez...Master of Disaster.

Van Diijk, making mistakes.

If Leeds score again I'll be walking out of here with about £400. From £20.

 

Not an Abdulaye or Dos Santos in sight.

 

That's it, back on your bus, try not to kick any small animals on your way out, hump off with yourselves. In 10 games they'll be begging the likes of Brighton and Wolves to take it easy on them. Twats.

 

Womens Football?

Arsenal Ladies 9 1 West Ham Harlots.

 

What an absolute prick Lineker is:



´they do know how to win´
