Mahoneys Tache

Looking at highlights reels I like how he doesn’t go down like a sack of shit every time he’s tackled or fouled.

Piss up a fucking rope.

He needs the appearance bonus because the meter’s empty.

I think we’ll turn up this time and put in a proper performance but I just don’t think it’ll be enough because they are just much better than us. How does this affect European places? Liverpool are going to be in the champions league no doubt. Do we automatically get the place if we lose like it used to be or have things changed?

I suspect that if one of the top players are sold to raise cash in the summer it’ll be him. It would be a bummer but he’s at his peak value and probably the easiest (not that it would be a piece of piss) to replace. Before I get pelters for this, I would be sad to see him go but a big fee for someone who will start to lose financial value (fucking weird talking about a human like that) might make sense. Selling at the right time is as important as buying at the right time.

Five live very measured. They are saying we are in cruise control.

That would make for a great guess the season quiz.

Ahead of the curve.

Elanga still shite I see.

Russell Brand had ten times that. Not an indication of veracity.

Waddle still irks me too.

He sprang to mind when osula scored a screamer from the left. Young Sammy did that in the league many years ago as I recall. Chelsea?

Best manager we’ve had in my living memory. First one I’ve really genuinely thought will bring us a trophy, well, since the 95-96 season. Patience.

So Murphy is shit again?

BBC elocution training. I was pissed with Waddle once and he didn’t sound like he does when he’s on the radio.

Nobody’s saying it. That’s why I wrote ‘underlying assumption.’

Yes. It is. There’s an underlying assumption that we can swoop in and buy him if we choose to. Like the Arsenal shower talking about Isak.

Miggy always gave 100%, scored some crucial and excellent goals. Gets far more stick than he should and not enough gratitude. Granted he was never Eusebio but we were never Real Madrid either. Same as the pelters Murphy and Burn were getting until recently. There’s a pattern here.

This is starting to sound like gooners talking about Isak.

I think he might be the most impressive manager we’ve had in my lifetime. I’m so old Joe Harvey was manager in my lifetime, but not so old I recall him.

was that a death stare aimed at Edwards before he answered the next question?

Chickens.

Same but fucked if I’m going into St Andrews away. the city ground in the 90’s was grim but no. Not this.

Southgate.

Bellamy was pretty much universally considered to be a useless awkward cunt before he turned out to be fucking brilliant until souness’ legendary man management approach pissed on our collective chips. edit - in the interest of balance, he was an awkward cunt but was beautifully managed by SBR.
