  1. I thought the Ginger Pirlo nickname was a joke; but having watched him over the last three years I think it's fair to say that Pirlo could only ever aspire to be the Tanned Colback.
  2. I hope ya flip some guy the bird, He cuts you off and you're forced to swerve, In front of the Beatles' tour bus, A Bookmobile and a Mack truck, Hauling hazardous biological waste, The light turns red you have no brakes, And "Hard Copy" gets it all on tape, So you can see the look on your face, ...Die Die Die Die Die Die Die!, ...Die Die Die Die Die Die Die!, I hope your Pinto begins to spin, Takes out a disabled Vietnam Veteran, Mows down a Nobel Peace Prize Winner, And maybe some orphans having Christmas dinner, Perhaps even the British Royal Family, And the Rabbi that's clutching the bottle-fed puppy, And we can't forget the newlyweds, And those Jerry's Kids are as good as dead, I hope this helps to emphasize, I hope this helps to clarify, I hope you die, I hope your cellmate thinks he's God, But C.N.N. refer to him as "Bowling Ball Bag Bob", Serving time again for abuse of a corpse, Only this time the victim's a Clydesdale horse, While he masturbates to photos of livestock, He does the "Silence of the Lambs" dance to Christian Rock, Eats feces and quotes from "Deliverance", And fights with his imaginary playmate Vince, ...Die Die Die Die Die Die Die!, ...Die Die Die Die Die Die Die!, I hope he grins like Jack Nicholson, And forces you to play a game called Balls On Chin, And whatever happens next is all a blur, But you remember "fist" can be a verb, And when you finally regain consciousness, You're bound and gagged in a wedding dress, And the prison guard looks the other way, 'Cause he's the guy ya flipped the bird the other day, I hope this helps to emphasize, I hope this helps to clarify, I hope you die, ...I hope you die!.
  3. Worst thing about Shelvey is that he's supposed to be one of our main players this year. Some people don't handle responsibility well. Will damage trust between him and the manager, fans and other players. What a melt.

  5. I could probably get my friend Joe to come - he met LFEE when in town and wants to go see Newcastle.
  6. Would you prefer 290 minutes of Merino or 3 Seasons of Colback?
  7. Compare the identity of the German teams that signed Merino and Abeid, therein shall lie your answer.
  8. He started two games, out of position, last season. Suggest we'd need a few more stages between underwhelming and solid. Having caught sight of him during his year at Osasuna and followed the story of his transfer to BVB, I'm confident that he's a talented player and means an area of weakness - central midfield - is addressed, therefore leaving us a striker short of what I consider the bare minimum. It's just my opinion but I think there's a player in there and a first choice rotation of Shelvey, Hayden and Merino would have a lot of promise.
  9. He's a good player. Would upgrade our summer from underwhelming to solid if this happens. Vast upgrade over Colback.
  10. Can't wait to blame the Medea when this goes wrong.
  11. He leaves with my best wishes and I'm happy he rehabilitated his image with us. As an aside though, yet another player who couldn't get a role at an actual club on leaving us.
  12. We've seen this so many times before and there's a lot of wishful thinking on here. Whenever Ashley is concerned, very rarely has there been no smoke without fire. He's a proven liar and cheat. The notion that he's somehow bought into the project or been won over by the excitement and positivity surrounding the club is, in my opinion, delusional optimism. I'm not convinced Rafa will resign yet - I think he does feel a bond and still believes in the idea of his project - but if we're at the end of July with very little progress in the transfer market, I have no doubt that he will make a very calculated decision involving the value of his reputation, the minimum level of respect and commitment he demands and his realistic view on the squad's potential vs the kinship I believe he feels for the club and the fanbase, the belief of whether he can whether a storm at boardroom level until there is a takeover/sufficient unrest that he can harness it to his advantage and the reality of other available positions in England. My reluctant conclusion is that, absent 3-4 signings over the next month, he will resign with his reputation and employability intact rather than become involved in a sideshow boardroom-politics dispute. I hope I'm wrong, but I have no doubt that he's mighty hacked off because a promise has been broken (yet again).
  13. We share the same royal selangor shirt.
