Cajun Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 You talk about bias Ronaldo but you have made it quite clear for a while now you have a problem with Shearer, do you not think that could be clouding your judgement? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 This debate is absolutely rank, man. I've been drawn into some fucking daft arguments around semantics on here, but this is a whole new level of madness. Why? Well, let's start with the fact that it has stemmed from HTT's fictional one-man ranking system. Need I say more? I actually enjoyed it, but only because I'm as gay for Shearer as he is by the looks of things. He did miss one key area where Big Al scores 10 too though, in the bracket entitled "looks department".

Mr. Snrub Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Not to mention an 11 in the big cock department. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 You talk about bias Ronaldo but you have made it quite clear for a while now you have a problem with Shearer, do you not think that could be clouding your judgement? There's very little to judge, as it's all in black and white, really. Shearer's record doesn't really match up to the very best, as good as it is.

There's very little to judge, as it's all in black and white, really. Shearer's record doesn't really match up to the very best, as good as it is. I need to clarify this, what do you mean when you say "record"? Are we talking numbers, are we talking finishing ability, are we talking goals scored at the very highest level?

Interpolic Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 You've just chosen a line and stuck to it with vague 5 word posts when other people are actually trying to debate the point, I don't think you're in a position to call "gay" on the argument tbh.

Cajun Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 If Shearer went to Manchester United he sadly would have scored a lot more goals than he did for us, for us he scored a hell of a lot of goals despite two massive injuries. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Snrub Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 I just loaded up Championship Manager 97/98 and Shearer's finishing is 20. End of discussion. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You seriously want to 'debate' the difference between 9 and 10? Give over. Well, yeah. You thought enough of the distinction between a 9 and a 10 to bring it up in the first place. It's the fact that you won't be drawn into more than 4 or 5 words of arrogant tosh that rubs people up the wrong way, and I say that as someone who usually quite likes reading some of the stuff you come out with. So yeah, I was trying to debate your original comment with you and got the usual response. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshithispantz Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 I think this needs to be stretched to a larger scale. 100 for instance. What is Shearer out of 100, providing Ronaldo is a 98? 97? 96? These boundaries need to be broken. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

loki679 Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 Pele never played in the CL at all. Useless f***er. Didnt even play in europe which is why he can not be classed with maradona and Best Howay, he did well against fulham and got us a point against Villa but it's going a bit far to bracket him with Maradona and Pele just yet.

Revolution Number 9 Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 Depends on the gulf in quality. I think it's pretty considerable in this case, as I've made very clear. In other words, I'm starting to get angry. Soz Bruce Banner. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

2sheds Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 If Shearer went to Manchester United he sadly would have scored a lot more goals than he did for us, for us he scored a hell of a lot of goals despite two massive injuries. What utter garbage. Shearer would have lasted 5 seasons max at Man U before Fergie booted his btackside out of the door as soon as his form slipped.

What utter garbage. Shearer would have lasted 5 seasons max at Man U before Fergie booted his btackside out of the door as soon as his form slipped. Doubt it, Shearer would have been a 10 years man at Man Utd easily, because he'd still have banged them in for fun like he did for us but just as key because he was a leader, a team-player, a strong personality. Fergie likes such characters, i.e. your Scholes', Giggs', stalwarts, real pros. Players who despite their declining form and years, he still keeps around.
