Villa are excruciating to watch, I'd want a refund if I had the misfortune of owning a season ticket.

I hope Boro and Bradford are aware they're going down now. Mugs!

He usually starts well. It'll make it all the more delicious when the wheels come flying off whether it be next season or the season after.

Looking forward to his little stint in charge, should inject some exciting relegation threat into the equation.

I love the fact we choose not to take part in this competition year on year.

Rémi Garde and the case of the missing art galleries

They'll wait a bit, wouldn't want a new manager coming in and making waves about transfers. -
The commentators seem to be under the impression Palace's lack of possession is an accident. If only they'd bothered to watch us.

How can a convicted criminal who won't admit any fault have been rehabilitated? He's in a line of work where due to it's very nature he's supposed to be a role model. Whether you think he's guilty or not bottom line is the man is a convicted rapist and sex offender and until proven otherwise should be treat accordingly. I for one would be very uncomfortable with restoring him to his former position.

I've been wondering how the whole thing might have went down like: Hi I woke up in a hotel room at 11.30 after drinking shitloads of booze and don't remember what happened. I was naked and I'd p*ssed the bed. I think I had sex as well but don't remember. (Rape test later presumably confirms sex with 2 people and no signs of violence, no signs of roofies or whatever, the two people involved are identified) Did you consent to have sex with the 2 guys? I don't know, I was very drunk and have zero recollection of the events whatsoever. I absolutely cannot say I did or did not consent to sex with either guy. OK love I'm very sorry but the two guys involved state you consented to have sex with both of them, in the absence of any recollection from your side, and no signs of sexual violence or coercion I'm afraid there's very little we can do here. ... Isn't that how it should have went? Surely. Any sane being would argue this. But in todays PC climate the conclusion = " you cant remember consenting? Well thats rape then - you should report them etc". You got drunk, went home with a guy and ended up having sex. Thats life. Dont want to have drunken sex, simple 1. dont get that drunk and 2. Dont go home with a bloke. If you go home with a guy he is going to attempt to shag you, you are free to say so and go home. If you are so drunk that are unable to object then obviously the guy SHOULD know better but in reality this rarely happens. Does it make him a bit of an arsehole if he is sober enough to see it? Yes, but locking him up for several years and labelling him as a sex offender is very very harsh. Im sure most of us would have experienced similar without never really having had that intention. Pretty much this, if you consented to consume enough alcohol to put you in a situation where you can't remember then surely you are consenting to these sorts of possibilities. Lets reverse the situation, what happens if a girl was more sober than a guy and the guy woke up with a big heffa next to him the next morning and runs like f***. The guy is classed a dick for just running off yet no one blames the girl for taking advantage. How many bi-sexual or straight men get drunk and wake up with another guy next to them after getting so drunk?, who is to blame there, my guess is people will blame the straight guy for getting so drunk. If you reverse the situation where a man is victim to the affects of alcohol no one says he was raped, if a girl does though then it's rape, double standards. Isn't it about time we started realising that women have just as much freedom to do what they want as men do and can be just as bad? How the f*** is it possible to hold such dangerously right wing viewpoints? My points was showing the difference in accountability between genders, and if we are to assume being intoxicated makes you in able to consent then it should be equal across both genders and surely someone has take responsibility for being so drunk? If being intoxicated means you can no longer consent then surely a lot of people will be guilty of rape by having a drunken 1 night stand, or even by having a few drinks with their partner and then having sex? You can't say being intoxicated and then having sex is rape and only apply it to women on a night out, if your going to do that then it has to be applied to everyone. "if you consented to consume enough alcohol to put you in a situation where you can't remember then surely you are consenting to these sorts of possibilities" You're views are incredibly rigid, like. I cannot even be bothered to explain the differences between the 2 scenarios though, they're obvious, but if a bloke believes he was 'raped' he has every right to report it and it'll be dealt in the same manner as if a female was to. We have to be responsible for our actions even when drunk. If someone got drunk and drove and caused an accident then they are responsible, if someone dies then usually they go down for manslaughter because their intention wasn't to hurt someone but they took actions that resulted in it. In the eyes of the law they are still responsible, so if someone is responsible for killing someone when they are drunk then surely they are responsible for having sex? I can't believe what I'm reading. Rape trials are so complex, neither party ends of being protected at the end of the day. Most cases end up in he said/she said so reasonable doubt is impossible to find. On the other hand the accused's identity is dragged through the mud and he's stigmatised regardless of whether he's found guilty or not. Anyway that's beside the point. Comparing a woman having a drink and getting raped to a woman having a drink and getting into a car isn't even the same ball park and you'd have to be a dangerously moronic individual to even entertain it. It's victim blaming of the highest order.

Favre innit.

That's why I hate Di Maria and the Mancs, cheating cunts.

Chances are I'm going to miss most if the football as my front door is fucked and is getting repaired first thing. I'll make sure I set off as soon as it's fixed. Apologies for any inconvenience caused. I'll sort monies out when I get there.

Has this cunt been binned yet?

For a smart bloke Mike is being as thick as fuck on this one. The longer Pardew stays the more winnable games he'll eat up, by the time the penny drops with fatty it could be too late.

That's it then. We're going to have to kill him.

I'm very much in. Thanks for the heads up Taylor.

Same shit different day.
