One for the Latin brigade

Im trying to translate Hope never dies into Latin , a chum of mine came up with
Spes nunquam moritur, but we're not sure it fits to well ?
Any of you Latin scholars on here able to suggest a better alternate ?

It would be Spes numquam perit

Seneca's quote of Truth never perishes is Veritas numquam perit

Whats the Latin for "I want the next 2 1/2 hours to f*ck right off so i can leave for the match" ??

Probably putting it on a flag for tonight. Now that would confuse Sky.

I'd've thought it was Fidel something mortus myself, but I'm no expert.

Im sure mortus is death itself ratehr then the "act" of dying ? Nap's ?

Tempus F*ckit, I do believe

Mortuus is a dead man. There is no such word as mortus, I don't think.

Also, fidel is fidelity/faithfulness.

Perire works better than mori, as semantically it works better. Animate objects die, inanimate objects perish.

Babel Fish didn't know the answer to that, apparently Latin is not a language they translate.
