        In 2011, Spurs reached the European Cup quarter-finals. ;) (n/m) (NCFC) - thebigfeller, Mar 29, 21:08:10
        
        You're like a punter in a fortune teller's tent. (NCFC) - Yellalee, Mar 29, 21:10:24

        Disagree. I think there's something in numerology, for example. (n/m) (NCFC) - thebigfeller, Mar 29, 21:03:50

        It's not faith that science tries to disprove (or indeed disproves) (NCFC) - Yellalee, Mar 29, 21:12:23
        
        Depends on what you mean. People have faith in all sorts of things; people have very (NCFC) - thebigfeller, Mar 29, 21:14:38
        
        True. But equally we know just because a majority think it's true, doesn't mean it is. (NCFC) - Yellalee, Mar 29, 21:18:18
