What's his record like at Getafe this season?

Fatty fatty Beale boy doing a job then

Gattuso sacked at Marseilles. How the fuck does this guy keep getting jobs, man, he seems to stink out every place he goes to

Absolutely spot on. Detailed my arse.

What a fucking wanker

Just relegate this lot now man

Fucking hell, Sheffield United

A routine 4-0 win to those cunts. Fuck that whining bastard Arteta too

Used to know someone that worked for the FA as some sort of inspector for the football academies, and I remember him saying that a lot of smaller clubs just don't bother with academies until players are at a certain age (if at all) now. He said the likes of Chelsea and City are effective monopolies in this regard. Have thought about this recently - especially in light of FFP and the obvious advantage that City/Chelsea now have by virtue of playing the system and hoovering up top talent, but one of the solutions could essentially be a centralised pool of players until, say, 16, who are registered with the FA/a central body with a number of locations across the UK. There's then some sort of 'draft' system, similar to some US sports, which is dependent on league position to then move those players on to clubs. Essentially, from what I can see, the horse has already bolted with regards to FFP. These larger clubs now have sufficiently large academies to keep generating revenue which means there'll always be a route around the restrictions that other clubs with smaller academies will come up against.

I couldn't see us winning the cup against the likes of Arsenal and City anyway tbh

Sometimes heroes gan radge.

That avatar is perfect for this post

Totally reasonable to ask questions given some of the results we've had this season, like. Injuries or not, it's looked like too many games just pass this team of players by.

Very frustrating result

My hopes for most of the games post November

Burn v. Saka/Martinelli will be fun

Getting beat off Bournemouth at home is shite, like

Constantly shooting ourselves in the foot.

Fucking hell.

Urgh. He's not 100% fit I suppose.

Bournemouth, like Luton, are really fucking annoying

We miss Big Jo's heart and energy in the middle so much.

Of fucking course.

Paul Danan, christ There's a name a never thought I'd see again. What was he famous for?

Fucking hell, a peck injury
