  1. Good post. Even 'Hendo from Wembo' cost them a fair few bob. I have to say (and this is inexcusably arrogant of me, I know) but the PL top clubs seems to spend its money really unwisely IMO. Especially the likes of Chelsea. The league should really be a no-contest, but fair play to Liverpool (and more so to Arsenal IMO) - while they're not exactly paupers, they're rubbing elbows with teams that should be clear sailing. I think Chelsea's problem is the same as Newcastle's: a dodgy owner. Abramovich can't help sticking his oar in and doing dumb shit, like buying Shevchenko, or giving Mourinho the boot the first time around to bring in a sycophant instead. Given equally smart spending, the club with the deeper pockets is going to have an advantage, barring rotten luck with injuries (it's practically impossible to keep a squad full of world-class players happy).
  2. I'm 100% going. Imagine we ruin it for them. Even if they won it, would be a great sporting event to be at. Don't hate them as much anymore. Maybe cos im paying less attention to fighting our corner and they are actually great to watch Don't hate them as much anymore. Maybe cos im paying less attention to fighting our corner and they are actually great to watch This is what I'm starting to feel as well. Don't worry. I'm sure a day with our fans will set you straight
  3. No two ways about it, but if you were just out to pick yourself a team on the basis of winning stuff, LFC hasn't been a top choice for a good while.
  4. I agree whole heartedly. Plus we have the added bonus that a Liverpool title would piss the Manchester United glory hunters off the most. I know too many Liverpool gloryhunters to be happy with them lot winning it. They're pretty dumb glory hunters if they picked Liverpool, tbh. Unless they jumped on that bandwagon 25 years ago…
  5. He's gotta be. That fucking player, man. They should have given us two cups for winning with him in the side. Don't blame it on the Biscan, Don't blame it on the Hamman, Don't blame it on the Finnan, Blame it on Traore. He just can't, he just can't, he just can't control his feet.
  6. that should be a smiley.
  7. Probably this one, tbh. http://l2.yimg.com/bt/api/res/1.2/qivgYVsFiQSjyhInWB0A6g--/YXBwaWQ9eW5ld3M7cT04NQ--/http://media.zenfs.com/en-GB/blogs/rankings-uk/1710_Liverpool_joy.jpg
  8. Welp, Hoeneß has declined any kind of appeal and will be going to this prison, where Hitler wrote Mein Kampf. Apparently, the prosecutors still need to get a few things in order, and then they'll ask Uli when would be convenient for him to be locked up http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b7/Justizvollzugsanstalt_Landsberg_am_Lech.JPG/800px-Justizvollzugsanstalt_Landsberg_am_Lech.JPG
  9. I know a couple of blokes who've done time over here and they said it was a doddle. As long as you weren't a paedo. I'm sure he won't do the full sentence, but I've no idea how cushy/open his prison will be. There'll be a Revision first, too, which is a kind of appeal, but only wrt whether the trial was procedurally correct. Don't think there's much chance of his not going to prison. He tried to disclose his tax evasion under the partial amnesty for people who 'fess up to it, but not only was his right to amnesty rejected because he didn't disclose the full extent of his tax dodging up front, the German supreme court has, AFAIK, already said that a fine is not enough in cases where over €1m in taxes have been dodged.

  11. So what you're asking is: Assuming we have a shit manager, do we: A. Bring in good players he can't conceive what to do with, or B. Bring in shit players he can effectively work with? The obvious answer is "sack the fuck out of Pardew". He has previous wrt being "lumped with" players who are so damn good that he literally didn't know what to do with them (cf. Tevez & Mascherano). How are you supposed to do better than mid table with a manager that has no conception of how to do better than that? Fucker would contrive to come in mid table with Barcelona's squad. As a supporter of a team almost dismantled by Hodgson, I know whereof I speak
  12. Can't see any club doing well with Ashley at the helm. The man's a millstone.
  13. I'd forgotten that he was the numpty in charge of West Ham back then. Guy gets two truly world-class players dumped in his lap and doesn't know what to do with them?
  14. Surely the young ones will get the reference best of all.
  15. Christ. Must take a lot of gambling for a Prem manager to go into debt.
  16. What does he supposedly own Ashley? Has he run up a tab at Sports Direct, like?
  17. You've got my vote I am still allowed to vote, yeah?

  19. I should be in bed, but this is far too much fun. MOAR PIES!
