    It's sad how little I care right now. We absolutely deserve to be relegated off the back of this past year and a bit. We're an embarrassment and a shitestain on English football. I say 'we' but it's not been 'our' club for a long long time now.

    Injured yet? No but he did cry at one point. He's surprisingly not as thick as you'd expect him to be. Aye, I think he's been pretty sound on it too. Impressive maths by him tonight He got there wayyyy faster than I would have.

    Imagine if he could teach people how to twat a ball as well as him?

    Bit petty tbh, not really much need. I've personally got little to no issue with people going if they feel the desperate need, I'm not going to have a pop at countless friends and family for doing that as it's s**** patter. I might gently and reasonably make the case for not giving Ashley money and indeed did with my dad who gave up his season ticket after 20-odd years and doesn't miss it. He does miss following an NUFC worth supporting though, we all do. I do think those spending money on NUFC need to hold their hands up and admit they're begrudgingly funding the current set of circumstances though, there's clearly a direct link there. Personally I go to a few aways a season and haven't been to SJP for years even when visiting from London when there's a match on. It's interesting you raise the point of being given a free ticket mind as a guy at my work is lending me his season ticket over Christmas as a thank you for work stuff. I'll be taking my dad along to the boxing day game, don't see the harm in that given they appear to report attendances based on tickets sold anyway. I handed my season ticket over to my cousin two years ago, who now pays and goes to the games in my place. I realise that my place has instantly been filled so my absence/refusal to put any money into the club doesn't really matter. However, what I do know is that I feel a lot better on Saturday afternoons for it and my conscience is clear in as much as that fat lump isn't getting my money. Those that continue to buy merchandise, especially merchandise plastered with Wonga or SD I will never, ever understand. I don't agree with it and think it's absolutely barmy but I won't ram that point of view down their necks, it's not worth it. It saddens me how divided our fanbase is these days and it's symptomatic of Ashley's reign that most people continue to put up with it. I still want my football club back, the one that I grew up with, the one that was shite but at least I was proud of because it tried.
  7. Still looks like their best player by a mile already though.

    All of the windows are filthy. The only things that seem to be kept in tip-top condition are the SD signs, surprise, surprise.
  9. http://m.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/34845255 Makes sense after reading that. They plan to build a new stadium in Merton.
  10. Skirge alert. f*** defence. Goals goals goals. That literally would fuck our defence and there'd be plenty of goals, goals, goals.
  11. The number of sitters we miss in that video alone, jesus f***ing christ. Ben Arfa clearly has his flaws, that's why he's been trouble for a number of managers and why he ended up here in the first place. But with the ball at his feet and in the right mindset he's a magician. It was great to see him dancing past defenders like that when he was here. If he had the workrate of Tevez he'd be a true world beater but he doesn't. Why not try and exploit his strengths instead of moaning about his weaknesses? Keegan would have done that, and so would Robson. There's far too much money floating about in the top level of the game these days, and as a result over the last decade there's been a bigger and bigger shift towards 'the only thing that matters is the result'. That's why dinosaurs like Allardyce, Pardew and Pulis are still getting Premier League jobs, because they can get results no matter how ugly they come. The money is why too many clubs only care about staying up and remaining on the gravy train. They don't care how it's done, and they don't care about progressing or trying to win things. Football is so much more than that, that's why we all watch it. If all that matters is the result, why not just check the scores in the paper on a Monday morning? It's because half of the enjoyment is the near misses, the drama, and the skill on show. Seeing someone get skinned is just as thrilling as a good hearty tackle, but somehow people have forgotten about flair in favour of the end result. They've been brainwashed into thinking that sitting through 90mins of utter drivel every week is perfectly fine as long as you score a goal and the opposition doesn't. And they pay more money than ever before for the f***ing privilege. I find it staggering. Gan on, Dave.
  12. I like the adidas stripes being on the body of the shirt instead of the sleeves. Should be so wrong yet looks so right.
  13. Definitely him. Size of his arms, man. He's 13/14 in that photo.
  14. He deserved the sack for wearing the body warmer at the start of his reign. Should think himself lucky he made it this far. I reckon he comes across as a right knob as well.
  15. It was aimed at the ref in response to not giving the decision our way, wasn't it?
