George Bailey

He's some manager all right. Incredible record when you look at it in the cold light.

First off I'm not 'crying about it' nor 'wetting my knickers'. So wind your neck in bonny lad. The argument that because it is known that the WHam lot are a bunch of cunts then there is zero possibility of Rafa being tempted remotely by that job just doesn't wash. Everyone on the planet knows and knew what a cunt MA is, that didn't stop Rafa coming to us did it? He knew the owner was a shithead yet still came, he knew the club had won fuck all in years and yet still came. He knew the off field and on field weaknesses and yet still came...the same could quite easily apply to a club of the stature of WHam. I think it is highly unlikely, not impossible, but very improbable that he would leave us to go to them. Far weirder things happen in football though...just look at that shit show of an England squad. But as every club releases a manager then the imperative for our clueless fucking idiot of an owner and his henchmen to actually start addressing the issue of Rafas tenure ramps up a notch, again in my opinion. I fully expect the WHam lot to make some kind of approach/noise for him. Spurs job is a very good point and another 'potential' reason to be a tad wary of events this summer.

This. Newcastle first and foremost. He would have gone, had he played for any of the Top 6. It's all one big boys club. Hope he gets a cracking tan and loads of rest.

Coming home very early and probably not making it out the group...

Not saying it's likely but it's another side in a top division, with funds, a ready made stadium and a good loyal following looking for a manager. I believe ours will be on their radar so every right to look at them as potential threat. It can all be sorted in one simple way: do what he wants and what MA has 'said' he will do. Back him financially and allow him to plan for the clubs future by building the 1st team and squad.

Stop wetting your knickers about wet spam. If he leaves it'll be for a bigger and better club that us. No knicker wetting going on, but if you think for one minute that they aren't a potential spanner in the works for us, if MA fucks Rafa about then you are mistaken. If he leaves he will leave because he has been jerked off by the fat twat and staying in the PL may just be a realistic option. Sides lining up new managers all over the shop now and anyone who isn't concerned that MA may just fuck this up (possibly on purpose) is ignoring the last 10+ years of the cunts mismanagement.

Right you fat useless cunt and your areswipe sidekick. Get it sorted now before the 'appy 'ammers come a knocking.

Should offer Mitrovic in part exchange deal. He would be cracking for them in Championship next season.

Fuck em, and I say that as an Englishman who always wants England to do well. We will have our captain and key midfielder fit and well for the new season. Plus they won't be tainted with the abject failure that is inevitably in store for our national team at yet another finals event. Let the Livermores and Hendersons of this world go and stink up the tournament whilst losing rest time as well. Get Shelvey and Lascelles off to a beach somewhere....all inclusive deal.

What's Mandy got to say??

She's just another TalkShite gobshite anyway. Bunch of awful presenters on there: Cundy, Goldstein, Durham, Abrahams utterly talent-less morons. And they have test match cricket gawd help us.

May well be a blessing him not going to WC. More scrutiny and limelight on him would likely have someone tempted to sling a bid in to fat cunt. Definitely one we could lose this summer if it all goes tits up.

Bloody quick World Cup. All the games being played at once... 12 weeks for MA and Penfold to dither about.

Yep utterly.

Yep pretty decent achievement by all three of us. Not a fan of Wagner but fair play to him. Delighted for Hughton Pity it looks like Swansea rather than Southampton as would have been good to see them go.

Rooney was 16 when he made it into the Everton first team so he's been playing top division football for 16 years. His body will have taken a hammering. Banging minging old scrubbers up back alleys, theirs and literal ones won't have helped either. Riddled most likely...

You really dislike the Welsh do you man ? Is there are story you want to share with us ? They should play in their own league, or all UK teams should play in the same league system. Either would be fine. Cardiff, Swansea, Wrexham, and even Newport have been a part of English football since they were founded. I don’t see why people suddenly have a problem with them whenever 1 of them turns up in the Premier League. They're Welsh. They should either play in the Welsh league or the English league system should be a UK league system. I accept I may be in the minority here, but it bugs me. Same as the Canadian teams in the MLS. If the MLS was known as "The American and Canadian Soccer League" or something, sure, fine. But as it stands, there's a US league (MLS) as well as a Canadian league, so fuck off. Either have it combined officially or stay the fuck in your own country. The MLS means ‘Major League Soccer’, nothing in the name says USA. Also there is Canadian teams in the NBA, and Canadian teams in the NHL. Really weird that a Scandinavian is on an English football clubs forums complaining about Welsh teams in the English football League system and Canadians in a primiarily USA based league system. But the point is valid. If a nation, or principality has it's own national league system, it's own separate FA affiliated to UEFA etc and it's own National team that plays in FIFA and UEFA competitions, it just doesn't sit right that they should have league sides playing in other nations league structures. I get that this is probably a minority view and that it won't change but irks the hell out of me and always has.

The 'free' part sounds about right for us in all probability.

Aye real dream wrecking stuff. Think it was all pre-planned in my case, just to really twist that knife. Can look back and chuckle now but obviously at the time the smile from the game was wiped in seconds. Sobered up damn quick too

Was such a weird day for me that one. Utterly ecstatic at the game then got home to first wife later who told me she was divorcing me! Swings and roundabouts....

Good. At least that's one knacker off the potential threat list for when MA fucks up with Rafa.

Defeat by four or five goals. We may scramble one at the other end. Gonna be a humping.

Either have it combined officially or stay the fuck in your own country. One of my major bug bears. Separate FA structures, separate national teams. No justification at all for playing in English league. Either go full UK or insist on teams playing in the league systems they are actually from.

First parts sound a bit worrying to me. Seems like they are fucking around again. He won't put up with their bullshit again imo. What an utter pair of fucking cunts MA and Penfold are. I really hate to hate people but they are slime of the highest order. Ebola is to good for the bastards.

Did I not hear somewhere that Spurs may be after Bertrand? Assume Broadway is on his way?
