    Rafa Benítez

    Leicester looked pretty good as an attacking force from day one as I recall. Agree. I only know this cos I work with a Lesta fan and I was telling her from January they were going to win the league, it was a perfect storm. She's a bit jumpy and couldn't watch any of their games. Feel for her, she's been staunch throughout but that's where she was at the time. Went to Wembo etc in the past. Imagine that. We win the League and you didn't watch it cos of anxiety. Fuck that. Gimme another pint, I can cope
  2. In America they have football games on Christmas Day, only a matter of time before they come here. They used to years ago. Aye, 1957 was the last full fixture list in Div 1, last game 1965. Used to get some mental results with the reverse fixture on Boxing Day. "High scores and unpredictable results almost certainly contributed to the popularity of the games. In 1956 Tottenham beat Everton 8-0 at White Hart Lane; Bury beat Bristol Rovers 7-2 and then lost the return game on Boxing Day 6-1. The following year Chelsea beat Portsmouth 7-4 on Christmas Day and lost 3-0 at Fratton Park on Boxing Day; Bristol Rovers, almost repeated their previous year’s performances, losing 6-4 at Swansea then winning 3-0 at Eastville." Always reckoned the defenders played pissed. Note: I am not that old to have been there, so a pre-emptive fuck off to anyone even thinking that.

    Aye, I went to that one.
  6. They're really bad at it, seeing that they're paying us.
  7. I'd be enormously pissed off if I paid for a Ritchie shirt and came out with "Richie" like.
  8. He's in his 50s/60s?! You're close to death. You wanna rethink that m8?
  9. Pretty sure that's not what they call it.
  10. What utter s***. Especially considering the user name. WUM material I would guess. Just emotions running high, man. Let it go. Tbf I've given him s*** about his username before, he's OK. How about I change it to Ashleybrokemyunited [emoji3] nufc4now?
  11. What's strange about it? Very common short form for his name. It's very weird in English culture. We might initial his name IE 'J-L' but that's about it. My godson's father is called 'Juanmi', short for Juan Miguel. Makes much more sense than Billy and Bobby and Jack and Mick and Paddy and Sandy etc. imo.
  12. What utter shit. Especially considering the user name. WUM material I would guess. Just emotions running high, man. Let it go. Tbf I've given him shit about his username before, he's OK.
  13. No forbidden curses allowed Better? Shouldn't that be "...he and Shelvey"? You trying to bait me? I mean, maybe. The existential dread of you having your grammar corrected by an American would be palpable across the Atlantic. :lol: I don't actually recall the rules for it; it just seemed the right time to strike. Well anyway, no. He's the object of the sentence, so "him" is correct.

  16. I'm in a pronunciation battle. This dude is José Luis, so I'm saying Josélu, ho-SAY-lu, if you like. Am I wrong? One for VI, I think, not the false Spaniards.
  17. I'd bring her off at any time
