van Gaal is right up his own arse and full of his own self-importance. Giving him an upstairs job will hopefully undermine whichever poor sap they stick in the dugout.

You might want to double-check they've not mistranslated it. Hope Mad Mick (not the poster or the uncal) gets it, that'd be hilarious.

.com stating he's on Tyneside to sign the deal

Elliot will stagnate if he plays about five reserve games a season. At least sending him out on loan, even for 3-6 months, would ensure that he's kept sharp and gains some proper match experience.

If he goes, fine. If not, it might be a good idea to try keep him around as the second choice/cup keeper and loan out Elliot.

Aye, his best season in 2006-07 never happened. Honestly, such a foolish poster at times. he had a good season that year but it's debatable whether it was his best or not. No need to be such a cock about it, either.

What's the odds on O'Neill? I can see it happening.

Must be a canny bit of dust on his sarcophagus if they're opening the lid again now.

One of my uni mates used to play with Zeki at county/school level, reckons he was one of those who was "fast but shit" til a few years ago when he suddenly just seemed to click and subsequently looked brilliant.

This pre-season our players are all going to be injected with TB and then sent to a torture chamber. Looks like we want a shot at the title.

Chelsea in 90/Blackpool to go up - £1.50 returns £21ish Lampard and Nolan to score in their respective 90 minutes - £1 returns £16ish

Just shy of 10/1 for Blackpool to go up and Chelsea in 90. Worth a few pounds at least.

Any tips for the playoffs/CL tomorrow? Was considering a Chelsea/Blackpool double

Looking forward to seeing Wullie's rampage in Birmingham on the news when Solskjaer appoints Damien Duff as player-assistant-manager.

That and the bloke in front and right of Fergie singing along had me in stitches watching that :lol:

Le King Beau win or e/w @ 16/1 4.20 Salisbury £1.25

Cape Tribulation, 4.45 York @ 5/2 New Decade, 4.55 Salisbury @ 6/1

Get in! 2 out of 2 and I've still no idea wtf I was doing

Good start, 1 win out of four. Reyamour next at Salisbury.

Wouldn't be surprised to see him pitch up at Villa next season, especially if Solskjaer gets the gig.

Egil Olsen. He'd certainly be a seamless change from McLeish, I'll give him that. Solskjaer would be a gamble, but better a gamble than another certifiable shit manager like McLeish.

Collymore also reckons that the fucking moon is made out of cheese, though. He's an absolute fucking barmy cunt with no clue. Kean will probably get a pay rise and a stand named after him.

I know I'm not Jukebox but I think Wolves and Bolton will come straight back up again in first and second.
