I honestly don't believe Lee Ryder is a "better writer than anyone on the forum" tbh I can guarantee that there will be at least a few who are capable of writing far more consistently than he does, both in content and style.

I honestly would put it past Pardew to be spreading rumours amongst the squad: "Moussa, Hatem says yer mam is fat." [speaking through a mouth full of Haribos] Rob, I saw Hatem take a bag of sweets out of your kit bag." Putting on a fake voice from behind the shower wall "Willo, ziz iz atom. Yor air, it iz gay."

And Elliot could just as easily say the conversation never happened. That's hearsay. Guv knows exactly how the conversation went as he was involved in it, it's not hearsay unless I've completely got the meaning of the word confused. EDIT: I suppose it's hearsay to me or you like, but not to anyone actually involved in the conversation, to them it's either the truth or it isn't. Whatever that means Basically in the UK anyway any statement made out of court (such as in a police interview) cannot be used in court unless the person who made the statement is available during the trial.

Ben Arfa could be an absolute bell end but I'd still take him over some angel who works 100% in training day in day out and is still an average Premiership footballer. At the end of the day if they cannot make it work on the pitch it's their problem too. If they are refusing to pass to him they're the ones letting the team down, not him. He's the best footballer we own by an absolute distance, and I absolutely detest any player who's driving even further out the door.

Just don't be an arsehole and you'd be sound tbf.

It isn't hearsay though, he's reporting a conversation he's actually had.

Also wouldn't this make the vast majority of auto-biographies pretty much unpublishable? Sorry just seen this part of the conversation, you're allowed to repeat conversations you've had with people in written form ffs, it would be completely mental if you weren't

Used to be on the forum iirc I was wondering the same thing. Same Blufescu? Surely not. He was a great poster. You not thinking of BlufPerdi? Blef's a lass int she?

Do some of our fans not realise that the footballers on our books are actually people or something? "When he talks YOU listen! You cannot go debating with him like he's one of us regular folk!"

I can understand people who don't frequent the forum being dubious of his credibility tbf, I'm just pretty baffled why anyone would be against a fan publishing a conversation he's had with a footballer that is highly negative of one of our greatest managers and our best player, even forgetting the Pardagander. "He said that in confidence! Eeeeeeesh!" So fuck, he said it; he meant it. If he's half a man he'll come out and shed some light on what he's said. I doubt that'll happen though.

"What kind of jerk accosts a player at a club with a bunch of mean, prying questions?" These are the kind of fucking idiots we have in our support ffs, "mean, prying questions" god forbid we actually find out some information from anyone at the club.

Harsh like I've missed The Flasher though.

Considering it's taken about a year and a half for the papers to inform people of the fact he's just a terrible manager I'm happy for us to use any dirty tactic we can to get Pardew out.

What's up? Someone making the same point as me. We'll just have to pray it's not a trend.

What's up?

Rich is canny brutal sometimes like

Could someone (Happy Face?) please knock up a quick graph that displays how this discussion has risen since Ian entered, cheers.

"Internet journalist points"

"Ambush" ffs

Bottled Dog in being contrary shocker. "Give him a heads up" ffs Like journalism has ever fucking worked like that.

“We won’t take questions from you today I’m afraid.” we're so pathetic.

Same as Pardew I suppose.

I don't really see the problem with slagging off the press who were toeing the same line as the bloke they're now more than happy to lay into.
