Started off at City didn't he? Or did I just imagine that...? He came through United's academy. So yes, you imagined it The mind plays tricks sometimes... Edit: Or does it...

It doesn't feel like it's been 11 years since he walked out of the club. Everyone's moved on though. He's got his own thing going and hasn't shown any inclination to get back into management whatsoever. It would be fantastic to recreate the glory years but it's not going to happen.

Probably just seen the prison horse dropping his kex...

We're not going down. Things seem pretty shitty atm but we'll get more than enough points to stay up.

I just wish he would cut out that diving/cheating side of his game. You can take the boy out of Arsenal but you can't take Arsenal out of the boy...

...here we go...How does he start football matches? But it was! The ball was 2 yards out of play when he took the bloke out.

That will teach Southgate to stick his huge fucking nose into our business. Should be concentrating on his own bunch of halfwits.... ...rather than our bunch of halfwits!

Dawson booked for a ridiculous, stupid tackle.

Got a sneaky feeling Palace might just go up through the play-off's - they seem to have picked right up recently. Automatic promotion for Watford (they'll come good again) and WBA imo.

Ok. Scratch him then. Was just spitting hairs mate! He'd virtually retired.

Francis played in the Premiership era. [/pedant]

Baresi would cost an absolute fortune in today's market. You could build a team around him.

Motherwell captain dies after collapsing against during today's game with Dundee Utd. RIP

Strange place to keep it...

............ resisting the temptatino to turn that into a "board thing" .......... Please do!

A 4-0 twatting. and a red card for us. Probably Smith.

can't believe you're saying that when we've spent YEARS reading shite from Alan Oliver Stopped reading anything that twat wrote many years ago!

Transfer window opens in a few days so I'm sure we'll read all manner of shite for the next month.

And how would a non-Croatian like yourself know that? I am Croatian, i live in Leedia.

Platini was named coach of the French national side on November 1, 1988, replacing Henri Michel, who had been forced out after France infamously drew with Cyprus (1-1) in a 1990 World Cup qualifier. France's qualifying campaign was ultimately unsuccessful. The focus of the team shifted to qualifying for the 1992 European Championship in Sweden. France excelled in the qualifying stages, winning all eight of their group matches, including notable victories away to Spain and Czechoslovakia. After a record 19-match unbeaten run, they were among the favourites to win the competition and Platini was named Manager of the Year by the World Soccer Awards. But a string of uninspiring performances in warm-up matches, followed by France's first-round elimination from the tournament, led Platini to step down as coach. from Wiki...

I thought it was for authenticity. I'm not that clever tbh Mick!

I loved the random number mid-word, you're in the wrong job. Fat fingers man! I'll edit!

BIG SAM OUT! (by A. N. Other) Newcastle fans have expressed their fury at under-fire Toon boss Sam Allardyce. The mood on Tyneside is becoming menacing as the tide continues to turn on what the fans see as poor management and baffling team selections. Allardyce, appointed by previous Toon chief Freddie Shepherd, has undergone a barrage of abuse and derision from disillusioned fans following a series of inept displays. This unrest has seen disenchanted Toon fans openly call for the manager’s head despite the newly-appointed boss being in charge less than 20 games. The off-field behaviour of Joey Barton, who Allardyce brought to the club, is also causing consternation after a series of ‘bad-boys’ have dragged the name of the club through the mud previously. If sacked by multi-billionaire Mike Ashley, Allardyce will become just the latest in a long line of bosses to fail in the hottest seat in British football. Newcastle could well be looking for their 7th boss in just 10 years if the impatient Toon Army have their way. Latest poll results conducted by a fan’s website resulted in 2/3 majority in favour of giving Big Sam the boot. The unforgiving Tyneside public have already proved that they will not tolerate poor performances and have hounded out previous incumbents of the position including Sir Bobby Robson, despite him finishing 5th in the League. Alan Shearer remains the fan’s firm choice to take over from Allardyce should Ashley decide to finally end his misery and axe him. As source close to the club said earlier today, “It’s only a matter of time. Mike is sick of hearing the chants against Sam when he watches from the stands. It can’t go on.” A piece of piss. Sprinkle in a few buzzwords with a few lies and assumptions and you're laughing. Takes the fucking piss it really does.
