To resolve Dundee United and Jack's bet:

Nick. Serious bet here. I offer you £200 that the Glasgow IWW won't have 1500 members (ie, 10% of what you elsewhere bet) in 3 years. Genuine 100% here. WIth 5-1 odds (ie, if I win I get £40, you win you get £200, however the notation works. embarrassed).

I think that is probably doable. You're on. I'd love to have the pleasure of watching you hand over £200 to a "fucking nutcase," cos you were a complete cock on the internet in 2007.

So anyone with it any inside info know whose direction this is going in? The Glasgow group should have around a thousand by now if Dundee is going to win. Well...?

There must be some pretty amazing ways to use this money.

You could kit out all of brighton solfed with tracksuits so that they could really reach the locals.

Mate, it's Brighton, tracksuits are exactly the wrong way to do it!

Use the £40 to buy a round of drinks at a long overdue Libcom drinks with Dundeeunited as guest speaker.

If it snowballs this year though, Dundee will get the last laugh.

We're actually going to have libcom drinks on the 24th of July to say goodbye to catch. Will post up the thread about it in a bit

You could use the money to print a bunch of leaflets with an ultraleft critique of the IWW to distribute to spacemen.

I think Glasgow IWW currently has around 900 members so they're on their way to it.*

*I'm joking of course.
