You just couldn't make that shit up. These lines are fucking everywhere.

Read the title as "Ken Barlow". Not sure I can un-see that now.

I read that as sand cock. Seems more apt.

A blue moon is technically the 3rd moon in a season with 4 moons, and occurs 7 times every 19 years. It's extremely consistent, really.

I keep checking this thread but it's a complete waste of time really. Eventually, we simply have to sign someone, it's (almost!) impossible not to. But when that day happens, let's not kid ourselves that we're witnessing some kind of change of direction or improvement in fortunes. A hell of a lot needs to be done this window in order to move the club forward and 2-3 signings will still be less than the bare minimum. Currently we're on 0.

They're probably getting Coloccini to hand write them.

I have the time and the money, but I'd get more enjoyment every Saturday out of sticking a £20 note down my jap's eye and setting fire to it. Fuck this lot of leeches.

Not that he'd ever come, but I really don't rate Balotelli at all.

Ben Arfa, Yanga Mbiwa and Santon IMO.

Anyone want to stake their mortage on which of those 2 options we'll chose?

If 30% of the ground have not renewed their season tickets, it's just delicious. You reap what you sow, you odious, miserable, penny-pinching shitheads.

Must be fairly depressing sitting directly behind the goals. All you get there are close-ups of the opposition rattling yet another one into the net.

Lesser everything than his brother tbh. Better cricketer.

Before panicking and getting a few loans in.

Erm... http://www.nufcblog.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/Fabricio-Coloccini-trophy.jpg OK, fair point. How could I forget that? And we've had 2 Championship titles, and an InterToto cup too. Really Concur has little to brag about in the scheme of our glorious, trophy-laden recent history.

Jesus Christ. Our last trophy-winning captain taking a seat on the board and then lying through his teeth whilst doing what - irrespective of what he's getting paid - is a £7/hour job. Utterly bonkers. Tbh I'd not be surprised if he's actually getting paid £7/hour. And is happy about it. What an utter worm.

I suspect you're underestimating our ability to lose a 1 horse race.

Not looking at that picture he's not. More like Hatem/2

The transfers are going exactly as expected.

There's no interest in the league cup because they'd have to make an effort from the start. They're only pretending there's an interest in the FA Cup because they've got until January before they have to even think about keeping that promise.

My God, man. You've got to add on all his wages too, for the entire duration of his contract. Free transfer? No such thing. Liverpool could do a Leeds with this kind of cavalier approach to player recruitment.

Ha, we're more likely to sell ourselves as a stepping stone to going to Southampton. Actually, it's not at all, it's fucking true and it's fucking depressing.

True. But it's still not adding up.

If our wage bill is £70m, that's £1.34m per week. Which means we have 33 players on an average of £40k, or 27 players earning £50k each. Yeah, right!

No problem with McClaren honouring his Derby contract. I do however have a problem with us targetting him in the first place. Don't get me wrong, he's not a terrible manager but he's pretty mediocre. Maybe something will click for him and he'll do well, but there's a terrible lack of ambition surrounding this appointment.
