It is getting to the point where it feels inappropriate to laugh; like mocking the afflicted. Club's in a tailspin.

Some fantastic images on there. Thanks for posting

"No probs, Raffy-laa. Eee doesn't he 'ave the look of Sameobi, love him like; Go 'ed Raffy sign him on he's boss, 'Boss' hahahaha. That nice Chrissy Hugh will be devoed...Again!! Hahahaha."

Yes, one of the few players 2015-16 to come out with any credit. Have him in the same bracket as Aarons (exiting prospect but injury prone) perhaps unfairly for Kev the Hair. Has he been injury-free all season?

Oh, soundalikes... Ok, Adrian Durham and my arsehole.

That was some p*ss he just had. More en-barrier, than ensuite... Ah! Just like the good ol' days.

Anybody spot what the next highest placed second tier club is? Stuttgart. pretty impressive (from both of us).

You a golfer by any chance?

I think 'Bernado' is a top rate signing. Sane has looked unplayable/awesome at times, de Bruyne is one of the best players in the Premiership, the other Silva is an absolute wizard, who has still got a couple of seasons in him. Sterling has massively improved. Gundogan looked a great signing before he was injured. Man City will have a wealth of options in attacking midfield; add Jesus to the mix...Fast and furious s*** at The Etihad next season.

It will happen again. It's Same One Lung. Fyp

Kevin Mbabu's more hirsute cousin?

We've been wearing black and white stripes consistently since 1894 (the original Magpies Notts County since 1890). Refs/umpires in the USA first switched to stripes (from all white) in the 1920s, and it didn't become common practice until after WWII; our B&W 123 years versus theirs 72 years. So I can't 'unsee' a load of f***ers knicking our 'uniform'.

Assuming the lump in your cheek is your tongue (and not JC's bellend ;-), but where does he rank in the following (players who did/can play centre mid, some not very often, in last 15 years; apologies if omissions): Acuna, Jenas, Speed, Viana, Bowyer, Butt, Faye, Clark, Parker, Emre, Barton J., Geremi, Guthrie, Nolan, Smith, Tiote, Cabaye, Abeid, Anita, Bigi, Gosling, Shelvey, Wijnaldum, Diame, Hayden, Colback. 26 players. Anyone rank him top 15?

Very happy to retain him; will give anyone a good running, on his day.

Nah, pre-orders come with free shirt printing and badges. Just stuck one in the basket, and it knocks the cost off automatically back down to £54.99. Decent. Oh aye, didn't see that. £54.99 with name & numbers plus badges isn't bad at all tbf. Extra £10 for kids name and number.

That radio interview today... f*** me he's a self-centred tosser. Off to search for a transcript.

Three hopes...

Are you a Catalan VI? Yeah, of course. Barcelona born and bred. Don't you live down the road from the Camp Nou? Used to. Last year I moved to a larger flat out of town. It was down the road from the Camp Nou, and a couple blocks off the gymnasium where the club was founded. But for the same rent I live on a place twice as big now. Oh... good because I was thinking Cruddas Park or similar which would frankly make all the 'we' stuff fucking weird.

Are you a Catalan VI?

him vs Drogba (Marseille) both in their prime: colossal battle. Think Woodgate injured himself from memory, but was pitchside and can recall them busting a gut/straining every sinew in their duel.

If thats the case then i'm wrong and retract the above post. Thought I saw it in relation to the Pires link. You maybe did, as I posted some stats-related blurb on Gabriel Pires. Someone would have to be pretty thick though to write-off a player purely on such information; ditto, if you're clammering for a signing on the basis of YouTube best bits. I posted the stats link because he looked like a Laurent Robert on the pictures and like Des Hamilton on the numbers. Not meant to imply the numbers give anything definitive; nor the pictures; both just one source of information. Let's face it even if you've watched a player all season not everybody shares the same view. Though Gabriel being lowest ranked midfielder in La Liga did somewhat curb my own enthusiasm.

Loved that . Who was Wenger carrying/chucking at Klopp? ("Damn you Jurgggeeeennn," )
