Has immigration led to ticket giveaway?

So, Hull FC are giving tickets away. Which is good for the poor people amongst us but demonstrates how far the club have fallen from grace. They should, by now, be top four regulars in Super League. But they've lumbered from one disaster to the next. It's not good enough to write off a season in the hope that all will come good next year when the team is overhauled. Because it's an embarrassment and an insult to those that follow the club. Castrate Richard Agar, behead the players, sack the board etc.

Great website for the anti-Daily Mailers amongst us and/or Daily Mail headline writers, whose work can now be done at the click of a button. The Daily Mail-o-matic produces glorious results such as COULD GAYS DEFRAUD THE ROYAL FAMILY? and HAS THE INTERNET MADE CLIFF RICHARD IMPOTENT? I love Chris Applegate's rationale for the way he has made his random headline generator go about its business: "I was going to give the generator a sophisticated grammar for more varied sentences, until I realised the Mail’s grammar is nearly always the same." Give it a whirl here.

Hitlersheet sinks to new depths...

The Daily Mail is loving every second of the whole BBC shindig. "Even as Russell Brand row raged, BBC 'comedians' were insulting the Queen," goes the headline to Olinka Koster and Arthur Martin's frankly ridiculous story in today's Hitlersheet.
The crux of the story? "During the comedy show Mock The Week on Wednesday evening, Scottish comedian Frankie Boyle made a 'disgracefully foul' so-called joke. Asked to think of something the Queen would not say in her Christmas speech, he put on a high voice and said: 'I have had a few medical issues this year - I'm now so old that my p**** is haunted.'"

It would appear that the Mail is hellbent not only on calling for the BBC to be raised to the ground, but also for comedians to be outlawed. The story rumbles on... "Boyle's 'gag', in a Mock The Week repeat, is just one example of the depths to which the BBC has fallen. The Daily Mail has uncovered further examples of bad language and degrading remarks given airtime by the corporation." You don't say! What a funny paper it is. As the in-touch newspaper points out, this episode of Mock The Week was first broadcast 21 months ago! Yes, 21 months ago. As is their wont of late, they published a transcript of the offending 'comedy skit', to remind their readers why they should be offended.
