Marting Gleeson leaves Warrington to play for his hometown club, win trophies & keep his international standing high.

The makeweight in the deal from Wigan lifts the Challenge Cup within 5 months of the move, Wigan win nothing.

Gleeson's replacement in the centres is called into the 4 Nations squad while Gleeson himself is left out.

Cue Alanis Morrisette?

Bet he is kicking himself

he's got one hand in his pocket and the other holding his bottom lip

At what odds?

What are the odds on that, eh.

[iits like a free pie... when you already overweight[/i

Just like getting married when it's raining, I guess?

or 10,000 spoons when all you need is a knife?

Where on earth did Alanis buy her cutlery from? Lesson learned that day - Always keep your receipt.

Gleeson now has 25,000 spoons all professing he's the greatest centre ever, now where did i put that knife

Like getting to the cash point and having your wallet stolen.

Its like stealing someones wallet at a cash point before they have put the money in!

a none smoking sign on your cigarette break ?

Or a death row pardon a minute too late.

there is nothing ironic about a no smoking sign on your cigarette break. Thats just bad luck, now if you worked in a cigarette factory and there was a no smoking sign on your cigarette break, that would be Ironic. This song is full of things that are more about bad luck than Irony.When she sang that song she proved that Americans really don't understand Irony.

Ed Bryne did a gig based on this song

I think you mean Ed Byrne.

that dyslexic thread from the other day done me, bloody [iheel[/i

She's Canadian. But I take your point.

Is it Ironic that she's Canadian and he questioned Americans' sense of irony based upon her lack thereof?

She is Canadian-American.
A Canadian-American is an American of Canadian descent

She was born & raised in Ottowa, Ontario. I know the Americans invaded Canada in 1812 but wasn't aware that they maintained an enclave there?

Morissette became a naturalized citizen of the United States while maintaining her Canadian citizenship.

So she's a Canadian with American technicalities. Same as Clint Greenshields & Casey McGuire are Australians.

Ironically, yes.

Please not another thread about what does and does not constitute irony. I can't bear it. I'm still trying to work out whether Richard Dunne outjumping Gareth Barry to score for Villa against City the other day was ironic. Or not.
