    I look forward to the open-top bus parade he spoke about at Boro when reaching 38 points, or was it just a massive party in the dressing room?
  2. My buddy who follows the Russian league speaks extremely highly of him. Thought I'd put that assessment out there.
  3. Ladies and gentlemen, Charnley & Carr dreamteam.

    Must feel good to badger everyone around with the blunt force of hindsight. Garde would still have done decently at a club that wasn't the abortion that is Aston Villa. And everyone was simply going by previous achievements and track record, and Garde trumps McC every time. That's not true at all, Garde just doesn't have much of a CV to critique, other than doing a reasonable job at Lyon. However you look at it, at the time, in most people's eyes, there was no question of anyone preferring McClaren over Garde. Regardless of how you gauge each of their records. In my books, what he did with Lyon was far better than what McClaren's achieved and at least it was someone younger and on the up and up, as opposed to someone who'd been sacked from Derby.

  6. No link to the article?
  7. Fuck, bump in the thread had me hoping he was dead or something. Thanks for nothing.
  8. I feel like we'll get hammered, their tempo at SJP was pretty insane in the first half, and Mitro's miss(es) let them off the hook when we finally got a foothold in the game. So we're shite both defensively and going forward I'm gonna be pretty tense following this, I hope we can sneak a draw.

    Massive pressure to deliver now and the new signings need to hit the ground running or we are gone so lets see a positive team selection away from home instead of worrying about the opposition for a change Townsend LWB with 5 at the back ftd (for the defeat) it is then, with long balls hoofed to Mitro. When are we going to finally get a manager who's positive and excites us before each game, regardless if it's home or away? We've gone from massive cunt (Pardew) to mental case (Carver) to milquetoast Uncle you never call because he's just so fucking shite at everything (McClaren).
  10. That tweet, man <3 Not enough of this is mentioned as most players we sign are mercenary c***s. So it's good to celebrate the small positive news like this, a player who seemingly, genuinely, cares about the club and the fans. Don't get me wrong, I'm pretty sure he's gonna be benched after this in favour of Colback as second striker or LM, and a lot of this is just to ensure we get a decent fee for him. Plus, that tweet goes completely against my deep, statistics-based body language analysis which has told me he's been wanting to f*** off to Spurs first chance he gets. All in all, I love this kid and this is good news for now. Let's hope he continues to shine.
  11. Absolutely loving this recent club policy of allowing North American fans to sleep in on cup Saturdays.

    We're fucked. All hope just left me.
  13. Imagine leaving Atletico only to be behind Dummett in the pecking order. This Douglas guy's sometimes as bad as his bald colleague.
  14. Shakira would definitely lift the mood around these parts, she's lost the baby weight really well.

    Which he picked up when he slipped on the remnants of Ba's exploded knee.
  16. 12 goals in 55 appearances. Thank we need to aim a bit higher personally, not sure buying a palace reserve is what we ought to be doing. I agree we should be aiming higher, we need someone a little more prolific and seasoned. But are those 55 starts or hoyed-on-last-10-mins kind of appearances?
  17. Perez will look even more knackered then.
  18. Astonishing levels of arrogance there, even for you, Ron And a proclamation of a patent falsehood. Gayle would've flourished under another club that didn't need to rely on a target man, as he isn't one. I think he may yet shine if he plays for a club that isn't just hoofing it to him and keeping him on the bench.
  19. Won me a truck load of fantasy points as my third striker and he hardly plays. Think he's fantastic based on that, and knows how to finish. Unlike all of our strikers combined.
  20. Serious? Yes, why? So how would to line up if you think Perez will play up front? Same formation we've been playing (Watford antics aside) with Townsend in Perez's spot and Perez in Mitrovic's spot. Not saying it's right, but McClaren pretty clearly called out Mitrovic in his post-match comments. Eh? Where is this? I fucking hope he did
  21. Considering Perez has been dropped each time he's played well or even scored (lol), I doubt Perez will be leading the line for island-head.
  22. Just donated as much as I could afford for now. Will add more once I get my bonus this year
  23. Good thing is that we've had decent luck with players with receding hairlines. Hope he continues the trend.
  24. If we don't sign a proven goalscoring striker, who's also not a child, I think we're down, tbh. We should've had that striker in as soon as the window opened.
