Scholes. By quite a distance tbh. Could just about do it all and did it so fucking well. His legs have gone now but he was consistently incredible for 10 years (1996-2006ish)

Fucking magic isn't it?

He teaches knitting. It's called 'Textiles'. Actually. Grandad.

Interesting stuff.

The longer we're back in the division the better it will be for us. We've lost a fortune this season and that will take time to get over. We'll not manage that in 1 season, it might take a couple. More like ten years if Ashley uses any profits we make to start paying off his loans. Speculation. If we repay £15m a season it would take ten years to pay off the £150m he’s lent the club. How much profit do you think we’re going to be making? Got no idea. Neither have you tbh. At least I'll admit it...

Stay up next year. Mid-table the season after then break the top 10 the season after that. That's where the coin starts to roll in.

Quietly pleased things have worked out the way they have. I'm not gloating but he doesn't deserve to play for England or Man Utd.

He’s certainly very good at lining his own pockets. How much do you anticipate he's lined them with from the football club overall? Well to date it looks like he’s made a pigs ear of it, but that’s not to say he won’t fill his boots in the long run. The question is how is he is going to try and make a big fat profit out of NUFC after SJH made a mug of him. He could try and build a relevantly successful club PL that regularly competes in Europe and then sell up. Or he could just try and screw us over. And how would that work? If he's going to 'make a big fat profit out of NUFC' how is trying to screw us over going to help him achieve it? He could be planning on hanging around the PL on a CCC budget for a few years and pocketing the extra TV money. Three or four years impersonating Bolton would be enough to claw back the money he has lent the club, anything after that would be pure profit. It’d be gamble, but I don’t that seeing putting him off. People can be as happy clappy about being top of this pitifully poor league as they want. Enjoy it; the real fallout of the last two years has yet to show its teeth. So hanging around in the PL for a few years is him screwing us over? Wouldn't it be embezzlement if he pockets the extra TV money? anything after that would be pure profit ?...................wouldn't he first have to make back the money he has spent on buying us and the major loan (close on 200million i think) before getting ingto "pure" profit ? The deeds to the club are an asset is that asset worth 200million ? That depends on the market value at the time of sale, but the chances of the club ever being worth £200m are remote. Which begs the question, how is Ashley going to get his money back? Maybe it's got to the stage where he's just trying to minimise his losses rather than make some money? Just a thought.

Got a feeling we'll just brush them aside - especially if we get one early on. 4-1

Oldham

Drinking heavily most probably. Possibly dancing. Getting hit, too. As long as they hit him in the head it won't have done much damage. The lad's obviously got rocks for brains anyway.

I think it might just have been a bit of sarcasm from Fat Benny. Maybe.

I was talking League games. They've won once in the league since the beach ball in October.

Spoke to my brother-in-law who was at the game today and they're falling into the same trap as we did last year with Kinnear. Content to not get beaten but don't like winning. Left Bent and Jones (who looked like he didn't want to know) isolated; playing 30 yards in front of their midfield with no support or service. No confidence, no discernible tactics, can't keep/use the ball, crowd get twitchy as fuck after 15 minutes, playing players out of position (Campbell on the wing), picking up suspensions etc. They got booed off and have only won once in 17 games. They're in a major, major rut. Get in.

Too much of a gamble to rely on him getting and staying fit for a month in the summer. Waste of a place if he can't play more than 3 games in a row without pulling his hamstrings He's not fucking going anyway, I don't even know why I'm trying to think of excuses and reasons not to take him tbh.

Owen coming off. Hamstrings like pipecleaners tbh.

Prick puts the murderers one up.

Little wanker.

Yellow at the very least. Be interesting to see how long Fergie lets Rooney sit on the bench when they need a goal.

Sounds like a plan.

It will probably happen on monday. FA have to meet about it first apparantly. They have to ratify it on Tuesday I think.
