  1. Agree, I proper love Ian Darke, he has a knack of adding an air of intensity to anything he commentates on. And I also associate his voice with 93/94 and Cole and Beardsley pissing all over everyone, which helps. I may be mistaken but I associated him with Oldham 1 - 3 NUFC. What a game.

  3. Who gives a toss about this shite man, honestly. Football bears no resemblance to the real world anymore. Gray and Keys talking about it like it's a magnificent day in the history of Manchester City Football Club.
  4. Imagine if we had 2 Andy Carrolls. http://img11.imageshack.us/img11/1572/carroll2.jpg I'd probably consider selling one of them then.
  5. I'd use the Berbatov deal as a precedent. Berbatov was arguably more talented at the time but had also just about peaked whereas Carroll's barely into his twenties which should add value and the fact he's pretty much irreplaceable to us adding more. So basically a canny bit more than £30m, which I don't think anyone will be prepared to pay at the minute. Not sure that's the best way to look at it, considering how desperate Man U were to sign him and then had to battle Man City to sign him on deadline day with Tottenham playing it clever the whole time too. However, if someone was to offer silly money, so £30m+, are you saying you'd accept that under the assumption it'd be put back into the squad? What if it was just going to cover another year's worth of debt instead, rather than Mike Ashley forking out the yearly £20m? Basically I don't think anyone will offer his worth to us atm which, with a sensible owner, would be around the £35m mark. However with a very less than sensible offer I can see a much smaller sum being accepted which shouldn't be. If we accepted £20m or so for him I'd be fucking fuming. Lescott went for that ffs. Ah, this is stressing me out now.
  6. I wouldn't sell him for that personally. I'd have no faith that we'd invest it in the squad, and even less faith that we'd spend much of it wisely. We need to keep him. If we sell him, well it was before my time, but it's the 80s all over again. It would show a huge lack of ambition to get rid of him.
  7. Aye, and probably be on the bench half the time. We're a fucking basketcase of a football club but strangely enough he's probably at the best place for his football development. I rate him really highly, but if he went to Chelsea or wherever next summer there's every chance he'd fall by the wayside imo. Tbh though, the only thing Ashley could do to make me hate him more than I already do is sell Carroll (especially for under the odds) so you've got to expect it a bit I suppose.
  8. I actually don't really mind the stories. Carroll isn't going anywhere any time soon imo. The fact that Ashley's in charge makes the situation a bit disconcerting I suppose, but Carroll clearly loves the club.
  9. Well yeah. I was gutted that it was cancelled today, but I was still fucking chuffed I didn't see us get beat.
  10. It was fucking immense. It was alright actually, my dad was pretty pissed by the end. Class stuff. My mate from work was starting chants about anything and everything. He decided to have a kip on the train, but not before chanting "SLEEPY, SLEEPY, SLEEPY" for a bit first.
  11. I remember Booze Britain! Burger Barry, amirite? Some fella wanted a hot dog that went over the edge of the bun.. and I quote "so I slapped it in his face". Fantastic.
  12. post of the year. It's easily the post of the year, I agree. Gonna put it in my sig actually, it's ace.
  13. I could do it man, no bother. Beats a spunk yoghurt.
  14. Agree, except you'd think if someone had alter-egos they'd be a bit different.
