Didn't he owe money to the SBR Foundation for losing a bet with someone on here? It was me that pledged money to the SBR Foundation, payable if Modric left. He didn't but I paid the money to the Foundation anyway. Fair play then.

People enjoy watching twats fail? I don't understand that holding in the context of it being your own country. You do realise many English people hate England as a country? Given the relative open society, free press and high standard of multicultural living standards we enjoy I pity these people. Not too mention everything else we've achieved as a nation. Still, each to their own. RE: disliking the players, Terry I can understand but fuck me I can't think of a single one I won't have jeered playing against NUFC because i want to see them fail but guess what? Playing for England doesn't effect NUFC in the slightest so I can get behind him when they represent my national team, just like I would if NUFC suddenly signed them as that's who I support. Bit of an contradiction isn't it? We have a free press, an open society, but if you don't want England to do well then you 'pity' them? Come off it. The 'achievements' of this nation have nothing to do with football and supporting the national side. People can support who they want to support, irrespective of where they're from. Surely acceptance of that fact is more indicative of the free society of which you speak than chastising those who turn their backs up at the national side. No, people can support who they want but if you read what i said you'll find i was saying I pity you if you "hate" England. Ah...now I see what you were saying. Apologies, Disco. Completely misinterpreted your post.

There is a level of detachment in that sense. But I'd argue this is not England-specific, this is football-wide. The money involved in the sport nowadays is a big contributing factor to a sense of alienation with pretty much all football players, at least at the top level. Agree with this entirely.

FYP Other Spurs fans here are decent posters. At the very least they don't bleat on as though we actually give a concerted shit about their team. Whatever happened to Kingdawson btw?

Wow. Quite a coup for them, actually. Probably has a lot to do with their new Russian owners.

Kalou's replacement you would think.

Such a shame for Bilic. Seems like a top bloke, really hope he succeeds at club level. Done a top job with Croatia imo.

Has Llorente played yet for Spain this tournament?

Andy Townsend is one the luckiest blokes around - travels the world watching football with the only responsibility to talk absolute fucking bollocks for 90 mins. Turning this pair of cunts right off now.

Great appointment. Quite a coup for them given that they were looking at Wigan's assistant last week.

I hope he does well for England, i've sort of got over the fact he left now. http://s3.vidimg.popscreen.com/original/29/bVBMb1JoSHowUWsx_o_andy-carroll-diving-like-a-donkey.jpg Never forget. Hope he breaks his legs. Aye. Fuck him. Agree with Wullie also.

I would rather watch on a flickering black n white Russian stream than listen to that twat Hope he has a heart attack whilst doing it, the repugnant tosser.

You'd they'd stick it into google converter or something before posting. Still, I suppose most of them are only just mastering the abacus.

This is embarassing, tbh.

You can almost see the £££ in his eyes when compo was mentioned. They should have asked him if he'll be paying HMRC any of that.

Reckon he'll end up back at West Ham when they inevitably get bored of Fat Sam and his long ball shite.

Agree with antz here. Redknapp was never one to lay foundations for a longer term project, i.e. what Pardew/Carr/Ashley/Lambias seem to be doing here, or what Wenger has done at Arse, Fergie-Manyoo, etc. He's more a 'quick-fix' type character with no long-term strategy evidenced by a number of his signings - Crouch, Defoe, Keane. Sad to see him gone as I think he would have struggled at Spurs next year. Would have been great to see him squirm. Still, thank fuck the FA went for Roy - such a dignified man in comparison to this odious ham-face creature.

This.

Thanks! Thinking of a tenner e/w on Podolski fgs at 9.00. Fucking Ronaldo's just cost me a fiver.

Does anyone know what 'each way' means when a bet is placed on first goalscorer?

Not sure i believe that tbh..... Gervinho, Walcott, Chamberlain etc etc would never play lol. Indeed. I reckon RvP is off, though. Has been coming out with the usual guff that tends to come from players once they've decided to go. Sure there was an article on him saying he'll 'never sign for City....always a Gunner, blah, blah, blah' on SSN last week. Can't see them accommodating all three.

Good appointment if it comes off imo.

Realism: He's got a new haircut. Le photo?
