Wales are more like a good pub team than an international side.

Not good enough and too old. Shola's age and ten times the player.

Which is very strange ... I hope he will be what we are missing all this years.... We're all waiting with bated breath for your first defence of 'Parduw - a good man that deserves better.'

Who?

That isn't arguable at all really.

I don't mean to trivialise anyone's personal situation. It's just seems far too easy to blame mental fragility. Where's the responsibility?

Who did they say that about? Jean-Claude Van Damme.

Do you have an aversion to the word 'choice' mate?

Fair play, a marginally sensible post.

I was referring more to ElDiablo's rubbish about suicide being a direct consequence.

We should make the banners in advance.

Aye i'm sure thats exactly what he did like, hide behind all this depression nonsense, I bet he just topped his sell to prove a point. And where on earth did I suggest that?

They'll blatantly come in, sack Pardew after 3 games and appoint Kevin Keegan.

There are always options in life. Too many people in society hide behind this depression nonsense.

Lovely bloke, terrible keeper.

Except Baba, of course. But this is a man who tries to pick up women by growling and baring his teeth.

Yeah, Ashley's certainly the considerate sort.

Nobody has said they don't have sympathy with him.

What's wrong with Big Shaka? He does ESPN's Football show and he's quite good, damn sight better than the Irish hobbit who co-hosts. Wullie doesn't like him. Blames him for not winning the title in 95-96. Had nowt to do with his hero, Pavel 'mistake every other game' Srnicek.

Unfortunately, a lot on here clearly view the act of conformation as a more valuable commodity than freedom of speech. You can usually find the same folk in the queue for anti-depressants. Is it really so insensitive to suggest that someone who chooses to die, wants to die, and is therefore in a position of power denied to cancer sufferers? Of course not.

What good was that to us? I wouldn't say we were going down, but regardless of what he's done in the past and where we were in the table, we were in relegation form when he was sacked. And you could say exactly the same about our record with Keegan. 5 wins out of 19. The point is, there is far, far more evidence to suggest Allardyce would have kept us up than not. His record with Bolton, Blackburn and even us to some extent, points to a fairly strong conclusion. What a f***ing daft conclusion. Bolton and Blackburn were teams built on sides with physically large players especially up front. The thick fat b****** Allardyce didn't have enough nous to adjust to the players we had and tried to implement his anti-football tactics with players who were bought for different qualities altogether. What a f***ing thick c*** he was. A f***ing thick c*** who took a team from around 19th to finishing 10th in the space of 18 months. Not to mention the brilliant job he did at Bolton. We have no idea who Allardyce wanted to sign for us. It's been firmly established in the past 3 years that the manager of our club has little say in such matters. I don't like the guy, or his brand of football. But of all the managers we've had since Bobby, he's by far the one i'd have the most confidence in to keep a poor team in the PL. His record speaks for itself, as much as the biased bunch would like to deny it.

Because you strongly hint at an absurd/bitter antipathy towards just over half the human race (as well as most on this forum)? What on earth are you talking about? I don't have as much sympathy for someone who consciously ends their life as I would for someone who has no say in the matter. I cannot comprehend someone ever wanting to end their life without a terminal/horrically disabling illness being involved, it's a simple as that.

When did Joe Cole become an imposter?
