  1. Bet he won't blame his drinking buddy though. I dont think thats true of Shearer like. Dont think he'd be afraid to call it how he see's it, regardless of his relationship with Bruce. Stuck the boot in on MOTD. He stuck the boot in on the players’ performance. He’s ignored the dreadful football and performances over Bruce’s entire regime and never said a bad word about him or his tactical ineptitude. He’s been pathetic with his punditry during this. He's a pundit. Pundits are pathetic.
  2. That's a bit brutal for the Chron.
  3. The World Club Championship hasn't been exploited to it's full, yet.
  4. If the takeover goes ahead that would be us.
  5. Do I f***. Haven't had one this millenium. But. You're absolutely correct. I haven't donated a penny to the footballing gravy train in over 20 years, so it doesn't affect me, so why would I complain? Maybe the fact that the game I love has, slowly [because too quickly raises objections] gone to s****. How do you watch us play? No comment.
  6. Do I fuck. Haven't had one this millenium. But. You're absolutely correct. I haven't donated a penny to the footballing gravy train in over 20 years, so it doesn't affect me, so why would I complain? Maybe the fact that the game I love has, slowly [because too quickly raises objections] gone to shite.
  7. Haven't forgotten it. In fact, this revelation raised that very incident, in my mind. I look at it differently now.
  8. I don't get this clamour for giving players higher wages. They earn enough. Yes, they most likely [in an economic sense] deserve their obscene salaries. But that is only justified by the amounts that they make for the big boys. You've got people on one page, wanting to stick it to the PL and their partners, and then every time somebody asks for another annual salary PER WEEK, everybody is up in arms at even the slightest reluctance to submit. Every salary hike cements the relationship with the big boys and leaves the paying fan at their mercy. I'd love nothing more than to see people continue donating to charity as opposed to lining the lining in the pockets of the super rich. But if we vote with our wallets then we are driving our clubs even further into the hands of those that will destroy it. We need to take a stand that will undoubtedly restrict the earning ability of those stars that make the game enjoyable. Otherwise we may as well just piss in our own faces. Why wait for the off chance of a windy day.
  9. It's a fantastic idea to give the £15 to the foodbank instead, I hope people are also cancelling the subscriptions they paid for under the understanding that they'd be able to watch the games for free.
  10. Really hope the lad can make a go of it. There are more than enough dickheads out there to wish ill upon, he seems like a decent lad.
  11. Sean... Fuck, my eyes are shit. Not helped by this place's many fascinations, like. First time I read this I genuinely saw 'nonce in raising finance'.
  12. All just another element of our bullshit media. Too many sports journalists desperate to make a name for their talentless selves, on the back of others. That's the media as a whole, and you can see why it's an attractive. Just look at that cunt Schofield. Do you think the footballer/yoga practitioner got paid more for the work they put into developing their skills than Schofield did for smiling into his fucking webcam?
  13. Tbf, most clubs do this, would be pretty daft not to. He's well worth the pay rise as well if he was on 40k as has been reported. We won't be paying the increase for longer than a year, anyway.
  14. I find it hard to sympathise with anybody who has lost money to Ashley.
  15. Dutch oven. Wew. A Dutch oven is a slang term for lying in bed with another person and pulling the covers over the person's head while flatulating, thereby creating an unpleasant situation in an enclosed space. This is done as a prank or by accident to one's sleeping partner. Clearly a dig at their [soon to be] rivals. The red and whit jar lid. "Didn't rise as much as wanted". Compost is just a polite word for shit. Onion bag replaced by a garlic bag because they're not sure what an onion bag looks like. And the whole composition is 'on the tiles'. We all know how sour the mackems get when they spend all their dough on a night on the tiles.
  16. Somebody was looking forward to saying the same to the maxkems.
  17. Aye. Clearly nobody there wanted to be David Batty.
  18. "My first reaction". Fishing for a bung?
  19. Agree with this. The Staveley thing turned into a recruitment drive and then when the time came to ask serious questions about what went on they backed right off. Same as the recruitment drive around the time Rafa left. That's the professional way they do things.
  20. If it's a club you support, it's just like free tickets [with the chance of being called from the stands, comic book style] to every game. I'd agree that you'd be shitting yourself if you were thrown in, but I think that often helps a keeper on his debut. Fear heightens the senses and reflexes which can lead to remarkable performances.
  21. But if it looks like they're putting more gravy on the train, nobody will be selling their spoon.
  22. PIF will definitely be keeping an eye on developments. Unless this is nipped in the bud pretty quickly, there won't be buyers coming in for any of the clubs outside of the big 6. I've always understood why clubs want to keep more of the money they generate, but this top 6 cartel stuff is an absolute joke. It should have been shut down already tbh, they will wreck English football. Busy in court today... Pot calling the kettle.
  23. Can't rewrite history. Will always be a playing legend, but I couldn't give two tosses for his sponsored opinion.
