GM

Alex has thrown a strop! GM senses an incursion into HIS territory of expertise. Unfair and totally uncalled for. Aye, you're more huffy than stroppy to be fair. Zip it, Uncle Fester.

Striking similarities between the two - both media whores who would turn up to the opening of an envelope so long as there's a red carpet and Heat photographers around, both of them cockney wankers, with unjustifiably high opinions of their own self-worth and brazenly raping the wallets of the people who pay to watch them.

I thought it was just a typo and you were all talking about this lot: http://www.carlisle.gov.uk/carlislecc/images/g4_pic.jpg

Never claimed it wasn't hard work, Keefaz. Just commented (albeit sardonically) that it must be very stressful being a highly paid footballer and all that... Didn't really mean you, GM. Just these things you hear bandied about. It may be true that a footballer would struggle doing a 14-hour shift in a plant, but how many plant workers could last even 10 minutes of a PL match? I get tired simply lifting another hamburger to my bloated face at lunchtime, tbh.

If you bother to do your research on here you'll see I was universally panned on these here boards as a loon for suggesting plans afoot for a breakaway league especially by the likes of Victoria Toon. These "plans" don't amount to a hill of beans, Parky. Platini is simply playing with his train set and will capitulate instantly.

Well done Parky. You "predicted" something that's been almost inevitable for a couple of decades. Your powers have not failed you and you are vindicated.

So now we have: EMO - England's Michael Owen EMO - Emily May Owen Anyone think he's having a laugh? No, just a baby.

True.

I cant blame Souey for hanging in to sacked rather than resign it was worth millions of pounds. I can. The greedy, self-serving bastard.

It's so stressful though...such a stressful life the players have these days.

Doesn't matter anyway - since the Scots aren't going to be part of any GB team.

Great post, probably nearer the mark than anyone else regarding the minister's motivations in his outburst.

Yeah, but this thread is asking an entirely different question to the one you just answered.

Leave me alone, I'm only a young'un. Wasn't having a go at you kidda, more the sheer crapness of the decision to replace the old with the new as Keefaz depicted.

Relocation of Leazes Terrace? Or of the whole club? I suspect (hope) you mean the latter.

I don't know what right the government thinks it has to comment on whether salaries are obscene or not - and indeed, what there is to gain from targetting particular clubs or individuals? Why can't they keep their nose out of it all? Not like they'd DREAM of commenting on City Banker's bonuses or salaries is it?

But that STILL won't stop the assorted braindead mongs still calling for the demolition of Leazes Terrace.

Except in this case, it's about (theoretically at least) the relative value of potentially increasing the club's revenue potential via gate receipts versus the aesthetic and heritage value of retaining and protecting some of the best neoclassical architecture in the North East of England.

Coz your mate lives there. mackems.gif Oh well, thats it then, deals off, close the thread, never speak about it again, Chez has a mate who lives there, thats takes priority over everything. Yes thats the complete depth of my argument. Really showing your intelligence there. What other depth is there? Pretensious arse. In what way is that pretentious? Dont use words you dont understand. I was clearly joking, although i do feel strongly about the architecture of the city. Chez - no need to get personal. Your argument carries quite enough weight and conviction without the need to resort to condescension like that. TT - I don't know why you don't care about things like architecture and heritage, but I really wish you did.

Precisely. I really couldn't have put it better myself mate. T Dan Smith all over again? No thanks. If there was any need to expand the stadium it should be at the Gallowgate end only. To fuck with the Philistines who think nothing of the architectural heritage of Leazes Terrace.

I'm waiting for the phrase "flawed genius" to be bandied about... ...in his case I think that term is wide of the mark. Pity, really...
