Hopefully our fanbase stops associating this guy as one of ours, he's a rotten twat.

 

I hate to say this mate, but I'm pretty certain a lot of people (on here anyway) agree with his views.

She's absolutely shit but it's annoying how her shitness is automatically tied to her race and sex.

 

I saw a clip today of two people thinking they were being completely fair by describing exactly why she's terrible, but then they followed it up with how she "isn't doing the women's game any favours"

 

They're probably right in reality, but if you think about how odd it would sound if you said "Michael Owen isn't doing the men's game any favours" or how racist it would sound to say "Garth Crooks isn't doing black pundits any favours" it's obvious what even people like that who think they're being fair are unwittingly buying into.

 

 

 

 

 

Exactly this, great point. She's poor because she's poor, it's nothing to do with her race or gender but unfortunately that's not the way the world works. One bad woman pundit means they're all bad!

I hope they also agreed with him when he developed a French accent a few weeks into his Marseille loan

Agree. Hate the scouse rat. Worst thing is he was bang average a lot of the time he was here as well. People remember him as though he was quality on the pitch when he wasn't

His best form was in the first season back in the premier league when he played as a right midfielder in a 4-4-2. His crossing ability was handy with Nolan, Ameobi, Carroll etc. Other than that run of 10 or so games he was utter shit.

They weren’t even particularly good crosses, just looping balls from deep. They were made to look good by a bang in form Andy Carroll.

 

The grifting cunt spent longer in jail or suspended for violent conduct than he managed on the pitch for us.

He’s had his arse handed to him, his career’s fucked. Wonder what’s next for him as he’s not going to try and come back into the fold. I imagine he’ll ramp it up again as soon as he can

I for one look forward to his new persona. Men's health guru? Ghost hunter? Muslim convert? Josephine Barton?
