Disco Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 If that's correct it makes the whole Mvila situation even more laughable They not buy him in the end? Surprised some other PL team hasn't come in. He's obviously a decent player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 His contract is up in December so I don't think they want to pay over the odds for someone they can get for free in January. But they should have got him by now. Thought he'd go to Everton before they signed Gueye Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd have taken him here had we stopped up. Good all rounder. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stray Mackem Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Unless there's only one of them on tour they really shouldn't have that apostrophe either. There shouldn't be an apostrophe at all. It's not for possession, plural forms or a letter or number omitted. I'd be careful if I were a Newcastle fan when it comes to poor spelling or grammar mind Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stray Mackem Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 If there's one of them called 'mackem'* then the apostrophe is for the missing 'i' in 'is'. Ask your girlfriend to bring her schoolbooks along when you next meet her behind the Chinese takeaway. *Mackem is capitalised as it's a proper noun. It's quite clear the sign should say 'MACKEMS ON TOUR' as 'MACKEM IS ON TOUR' is just silly. I suppose looking at your fans attempts at bed sheets in the past I shouldn't be surprised. I'll let your puerile comment on schoolchildren go. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll let your puerile comment on schoolchildren go. I was giving an interpretation of the possible correct use of the apostrophe, not commenting on the validity of the statement. And yes, my comment was puerile and borderline offensive but was added to highlight the foolishness of stereotyping the many due to the actions of the few which you once again do with your bedsheets remark (Ironic considering the subject of the discussion). I come in peace, anyway If we're looking to critique each other based on the spelling and grammar of those for whom household linens are a canvas then I think we shall all lose.

bhoywhonder Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Great, now were indulging in apostrophe war's. And I can't see 'front of the net' becoming a celebratory cry! Wow Seriously though, that flag is a professional printed effort, not two adolescents spray painting a bedsheet. The crest would suggest they are trusted with the defence of the realm and they can't even spell the word 'anywhere' ffs. Meh, what the f*ck do I care, this demeans us all!

Guest Doc Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Wow Right, the "crest" on that flag is the cap badge of the Royal Engineers (don't know what swivel wrench is for) and the battle honor they/we have is "Ubique" witch means "Everywhere",so a miss-translation as well as a misspelling. As an ex Royal Enigineer etc. Sorry though this was M-O Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not arsey at all mate, i think I'm probably too chilled out if anything (as demonstrated by the previous spellings) Think I'll go back to lurking.
