Cannot blame him to be fair like

Not something I was expecting to read today like

Probably the most unathletic overhead kick I've ever seen but he couldn't have picked the corner out better

Is that the whitest, most middle class crowd in British football?

Jesus Christ that's embarrassing like I completely understand fans trying to get digs in because of this, it comes with the territory. But that's just weird. Imagine having a pint with the group of adult men who designed and created that.

There's plenty lovely places in Northumberland where players can easily live a quiet life out the way with their families. This idea that every footballer and his wife wants to live some glitz and glamour WAG life in London is absurd

You would imagine like In either case we really should be trying to save as much as possible going forwards and prudent as we can now imo. I don't want an early City situation spunking money on mercenaries like Robinho only for them to be a complete non fit.

Was like £170m or something that was touted during the takeover.

So do the likes of West Ham and Villa think this will help them bridge the gap between them and City? I mean footballs fucked, this is all completely vile and I wish none of it had ever happened and we were back to the 90s, but since the rift in money between the clubs has gotten to this point their only hope of ever competing is to go down the same route we have. We'll be fine, there's no way they will be able to legally put in place enough roadblocks at this point, but they might be in place if ISIS or some other conglomerate ever purchase them, in which case they're really just fucking themselves.

Martinez would be like getting tossed off instead of stabbed. I want my cock sucked clean off.

He's been shite for a decade and will completely destroy the dressing room Madrid completely changed him as a man

He dialed a lot of the annoying shit back when he got big enough to just be himself I think.

My main issue with Emery is that he looks like a creep.

Wullie's completely right. but I've fallen so far out of love with the game that it just doesn't register in the way it used too. I imagine others are the same. It's a domino effect though and fans absolutely need to fight for as much of a clubs history as possible.

I just want someone who can get us to sting together a passing move off the training ground.

They all have this really awful overly aggressive way of posting. Like where you can tell they think they sound hard as nails but it just looks weird. You usually see it on places like the Youtube comments section rather than forums.

Yeah, which is why someone like Fonseca is much more appealing. If your club has an identity in the way they play it's a lot easier to see where your players are going wrong too. Half the battle with assessing our squads over the past decade has been that not even they seemed to be aware of what exactly they were supposed to be doing.

I just cannot see anything about Lampard that suggests he's going to be a truly top manager. Maybe it's because he's a sexy foreign and that's warping my view a bit but that Xavi video I saw the other day (posted it in the Bruce thread) is how I want our manager to be. I just cannot see Lampard being in tune with the kind of football he wants to play in the same way. Edit: He's clearly passionate about exactly what he wants and is dedicated to playing it out. Basically just get a good DOF, some world class scouts and pay Xavi whatever it costs.

He'll feel better when we win a few games.

Imagine Bruce doing this video.

This came before the statement so it's not that like. It's probably South Park or Spitting Image or something. Or maybe it's some opinion piece in The Guardian, as N-O is the Toon's most middle class board.

And I'm half taking the piss with a lot of this but I do believe it's good advice that before people jump up on their soapbox, that they take a second to think whether or not their view of other people and cultures (and how they think) has been in any way warped by other factors - such as film and media. Like clearlly something has caused people to believe that Saudi's need protecting from our heinious steriotyping and dress up.

I don't know what the clubs statement has to do with this part of the conversation tbh? People can chose whether they want to comply with what the club have said or not but that's completely seperate to the cultural appropriation conversation. People are barking onabout their emotionally stinted ex lasses wanting 'to slap people' for dressing up as Mexicans 'n that man, it's weird. The vast majority of well adjusted people across the globe aren't this strange.

They can be offended all they like, it would just be completely irrational. If you want to be an incessant busy body telling people what they can and cannot do on behalf of others then crack on, I'm sure you hit the mark sometimes. I'm just saying in this case there's clearlly no malice to the dress up, and it's highly likely that the vast majority of Saudis are mature enough to not care about it. You seem to be the expert on Arabic culture though so by all means educate me on why I should be dismayed at this.

It's assuming most people regardless of culture aren't all complete children.
