He'll get a job as a "solid, no nonsence british manager that'll keep them in the prem" while everyone conveniently ignores that it's a total fallacy and he's a fat pest.

True, but what was he worth before the loan? Developing and raising a player's value then paying it seems like something that'd annoy Mike tonnes.

Yeah, it indicates a very temporary type of thinking. I suppose for as long as he wants to sell up he's never going to make any big outlays. Probably taking a punt that we stay up without any outlay, and if it's looking shaky he'll spend a bit in January.

Don't quite understand why Mike Ashley would ever agree to a 'senior' player loan. If he has a stormer, he'll obviously just go elsewhere, if he's shite then it'll be a waste of money.

Fat arse obviously stuck at C in the phonebook. Next "what's paul dummett up to now"

Definitely. Even if he's good it's barely going to make much difference to proceedings.

"Higher percentage of wages" ffs I just assumed we'd pay them all. What's Bruce's obsession with this guy

Pretty much. Just watching people miss things that are glaringly obvious is frustrating.

They seem to exclusively try and sign the opposite to what they need. It's so annoying to watch.

Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink for Charlton and Cardiff

Shola Ameobi for Stoke.

To the non-fan we have absolutely loads of random names from the past. Babayaro, Viduka, Nicky Butt etc. Another game is "players you can't believe are still in their 20s" and Haris Vuckic is the winner he's only just turned 29.

Patrick Kluivert at Newcastle is usually the one for non-Newcastle fans (and some actual fans) There's loads I have little memory of. Mo Salah at Chelsea a good one.

Nice one! Be good to see you again. @Neil @The Prophet where you at

Ah that's a shame, nothing you can sneakily get out of??

I'll probably head up down on the Friday night if anyone fancies a quiet pint. Nowt big mind, don't want to affect Saturday's performance.

Might put it on because I hate having money. We need to think outside the box tactically, send on an u-21 to just stand in front of Ronaldo and make 'wanker' gestures the whole game until he snaps and gets sent off.

That screams DJ playing too loud, chicken pakora, shite pints of coors light, middle of shithole nowhere function room.

Didn't realise Diego Costa had been released, now off to Brazil. Only 32 but seemed to really suddenly become a bit shite in final years at Chelsea.

Football's biggest fraud. Guy is bang average and has been treated like one of the World's elite players all his career.

I'd just go 2 hours. Sure split between us all it's chump change and makes things a bit easier time wise.

If Ronaldo returns to Man Utd I would actually find that pretty awesome. Man City would have made me sad. As others have said, we aren't competing so not really fussed about getting pumped by Man Utd or City any more, it's inevitable.

I don't watch any of his lifting stuff really. More to do with back/shoulder pain relief and workouts and it's helped a lot. For free too!

Hah of course he's been cancelled. Who gives a shit, he's helped me keep in shape. So many nerds just desperate to bring down people doing better than themselves. In some cases (like this nerd) leverage off them on the way down to get views and likes.
