As good a poster you are Brummie, the "Who's Your Messiah Now" banner will not make me shed any tears for Villa going down. I hope we're the last team they play and we can unfurl our own banner, "You never even had a Messiah LOLZ" or something along those eloquent lines. But yeah, good club, good fan (brummie).

Shay Given, enjoy the Championship.

Lee Clark, Shearer... someone bump the JFK thread quickly! 69/1!

I actually think it's been a fantastic season. Look at all the other continental leagues and the fact that we don't have two out and our frontrunners who're miles ahead of everyone else is what makes this league exciting. Currently I'd say it's the best league in the world, and I'm going by just this season alone.

I like how he openly admitted he didn't know who Yossi Benayoun was, made fun of his NAME, and a week later he gets snapped up by an English team.

"Where are your traditional support bases?"

Inflammatory.

And off the ball.

The hyperbole's awesome.

I think apology was probably the wrong word, as I agree with you that he deserved what he got from the fans. However, I think something along the lines of a reconciliation of sorts, making him feel somewhat welcome again, may actually be in the interest of the club.

If we clinch 4th (or even 5th or 6th), are we going to have a chanted apology for the fat man? Or just a positive chant of some sort? Something along the lines of, "Fat Cockney B4stard you've done okay, like." It's about time we start extending a hand to the pudgy one. Still a c--- of course.

They may be similar in the amount of time they take on the ball, but you can't compare the footballing brain, creativity and even finishing (at those rare times) of Cabaye to Guthrie. And vision.

Great link, incredible article. What a low, low man.

Swansea of Europe, innit. Pass, pass, pass. </neanderthals> Can't believe they haven't scored . Chelsea hangin' on by their nether regions.

At least he looks like he tries. For us he looked like he was pregnant most of the time.

Duff boils my blood. What a turnaround at Fulham right after we went down. WTF were you doing here, then? Mercenary at one club, putting in a shift every week at another?

Good point (memory). It's the reason we finished 5th then Either way, the SBR-tinted glasses are not coming off these eyes. He could've handled that bling-generation differently, yes, and kept a measure of control over them, but the players are to blame just as much for the backroom disintegration. I remember Kieron Dyer saying he regrets his attitude under SBR and how he was like a father to him, etc.

4 isn't too bad, you make it sound like we were 10 points adrift. I'm trying to make the point that the whole SBR sacking thing was terribly handled, needless to say. Anyways, the worms have well and truly broken through the can . I don't know if I wanna go down this road anymore. Let's stop at Souness being sh1t.

We finished 5th marginally and then bought only Lee Bowyer on a free. You're laying the blame squarely on Fat Fred?

Of course I do. Might be different with the younger fans, who are more used to success. But those games still feel f***ing momentous to me. I even have the CL theme on my iTunes playlist Good luck tonight. Watching your team, even as a Real fan, has been a dream the past few years. Messi > Ronaldo all day long.

The heart aches just reading all that, as it's bang on. Souey and "King Kenny aye" set us back decades. Well, almost a decade, in the case of Souey. PROPER PLAYERS.

VI, you still get the 'bumps for these types of games? I always imagined Barca fans (like Real's in their Zidane heydey) to be fairly nonplussed about these types of games. I hope you win tonight, though. I want an el clasico final. I'm a Real man. Aristocracy, nationalism and dictatorship for me, thank you.

Worms are out from the can. Souness was worse than Roeder. But then Roeder's fulltime campaign seemed to have mirrored Souness'

No McLean? No Sess? Magedia.

I've seen almost all his clips online over and over, hadn't come across this one. This isn't going to leave my browser (or my phone) for a while. Thanks to whoever put this together!
