One thing about racists, they're quite particular about the spelling of their slurs. Spray paint isn't cheap. Only one 'K' in the word you're all shitting your pants about.

Any idea who the others are? Can only think of Rooney and Jagielka, must be missing some really obvious ones Henry? Not sure how long that was between him leaving and going back. Andy King of Leicester? Edit: no. but I think there could be a Leicester player in there.

Javier Manquillo (now playing for Celta de Vigo)

There has been no reason to whinge about him. -
Suffering from Mitro Syndrome. Young prospect brought in for a big fee, and expected to lead the line in the [allegedly] toughest league in the world.

Was listening to a pod the other day which was saying linesmen are basically redundant and only add confusion. I would agree with that sentiment, but the problem then becomes what we are meant to do when players are blatantly offside or goal hanging, which is difficult to see from the referee's position It would be farcical to continue the pattern of play if someone is 10 yards offside and will just lead to more goals overturned via VAR review. The only real solution is for the offside tech to be instantaneous of for the linesman to become competent, but these are equally unrealistic if we are being honest. In light of that decision, I thought the same. But they are assistant referees, and as such have zones which they are responsible for.

A team like Man City ? How did that end. Worst than last season. A team like Spurs ? How did that end - we robbed them even though they were gash. A team like Man Utd ? How did that end. Could've easily gone either way. We didn't dominate and they missed a good chance before the young Longstaff pulled your mate out. A team like Bournemouth? How did that end. Could've easily been a draw. Same as WHU who almost came back from 3 down. We've not dominated a full game all season. Can we now talk about how Norwich, Leicester, Villa etc went? Or is that against your rules? Howay man we all hate Steve Bruce, but you could look at any team's results over the course of a season and point out what could've happened differently to change the scoreline. You can't take every decent result away from the players. Nobody is taking anything away from the players. In fact I get the feeling that everybody is giving all the credit to the players. They've made their own luck, in spite of Bruce.

Jetro Willems (now playing for Deportivo Castellón)

Had a crackin' arse. -
Should be available on all formats. Should get you a cheaper deal, too. Fuck paying for somebody to tell me what I can see for myself.

Amazon is American, innit? Brazilian the name is actually Persian, believe it or not. Yes, and is an adulterated word that the Persians took from Sanskrit when their merchants brought it back from the Indian subcontinent So when the pioneers landed they could be forgiven for thinking they were in India.

I don't care. I love it.

And play him in the FA cup. Where there is a will [to get knocked out early] there is a way.

Let's be honest, pundits watch the highlights [at most] and look at the stats, and construct an argument that doesn't make them look any thicker than their colleagues.

Oh aye, without a doubt. but his injury left him short of pre-season training and his lack of sharpness, coming in, really affected his confidence. He was never going to match the likes of Aguero but with a good start to the season he could have got 12-15 goals. All purely incidental now, like.

Have never heard anyone call it the sports direct arena in my life Clearly bollocks You ever been outside the north east? New people I meet in the midlands ask me from time to time if that is still what it is officially called. It's very much used as a point of ridicule. I live in the Midlands No one calls it that. Like literally ever. Bore off So unnecessarily childish You're talking shite though. Moron Sometimes, you might have to accept that some people are telling the truth. I think he's just discovered the word isn't just the standard response to the question "would baby like some sugar on his cereal?" Seriously though, is it that absurd to think that some people, in a country of over 60m, heard about the name change [done specifically for commercial purposes] but didn't hear the news that it had been reversed [bad commercial coverage].

Agree, I’m surprised how few people seem to think anything of him. He’s not top level of course, but he’s a decent player and sharp finisher. Still think he would have had a relatively good season for us, first one after promotion, if he hadn't got that injury.
