Ant, nuke the forum again

I made a killing flogging dodgy payment protection plans to the fine citizens of Trenchtown. PPI rates of the Caribbean

They're canny like. Now everything is a stained glass window,

You and Gemmill talk about this Villa “run” . How is it different to the good run of form we had after January last season, October /November this season and March/April this season? Strikes me that if a team is in a good run of form it will come to an end at some point regardless of who the club actually is, which appears to be the distinction you’re making here. Are you saying our good form at various points is built on rock solid foundations and any blips are just that and that Villa are just fuckin lucky? Or are you saying that we’re PiF’s Newcastle United and we’re just better than Villa in every single facet of the sport, except for actually playing the game of football itself going by the last set of available data ie last Saturday between 3 & 5 pm?

We could hire an investigator to sort this out. Perhaps.... Poirot of the Caribbean?

I was surprised to hear they once had major witch problem in Barbados, frequently having burnings at the stake. This in turn brought about a significant rodent plague. They used to refer to them as the Pyre Rats of the Caribbean.

As it happens I used to run a Hula Hoop fitness class in Jamaica It was called Gyrates of the Caribbean

It’s obviously a muster win.

It always makes me laugh when people like him reminisce about when they “smashed Man City” as they were a little middling side, does it never occur to them why that happened? Do they think there’s something magical and unique to Arsenal, or is it just they had more money and power built on years and years of having that advantage? As mentioned, he’s got Emirates emblazoned everywhere - one of the highest sponsor deals in football iirc, they have visit Rwanda on their sleeve. Additionally one of their owners is a billionaire that iirc through marriage will inherit part of the fucking Walmart empire - it’s ridiculous to act like their struggling along like Brentford, Arteta has been spending massive sums of money just like Arsenal always have since Wenger left. Also, honestly the whole FFP angle of his rant and rule breaking is something that doesn’t bother me - and didn’t even pre take over. Those rules are very very clearly intended to block clubs from challenging the established sides, nothing about the rules promotes fairness in the game. It’s why Chelsea and Manchester United have spent fucking billions on players in recent years yet we are struggling with the spending patterns we’ve had since takeover despite them not being out of line with their spending. I’ve always completely hated FFP, it always made me feel the game was shuttered and even if you had a season like Leicester you couldn’t build on that as despite your title win your spending for the next few years is still tied to revenues from being a relegation side, meanwhile a bunch of plebs like Spurs have years of CL revenues to point to for FFP.

I did nothing but berate him you desperate old fool. The thread is on here, 'Double Shooting'.

They hate us almost as much as Sunderland. Fuck them.

The VAR "officiating" over the past two matches has been so bent it's untrue. There's mistakes, and then there's confirmation bias, and then there's CARBON COPY handballs, one given and one not, depending on who's playing. And as HMHM pointed out, you then have to endure the disgusting, sycophantic excuses as to why what's handball for the goose isn't for the gander. "Ohhh there were a lot of players in the area and Maguire's not the only one with his arm up." Dermot fucking Gallagher actually spouted that shite with a straight face. THAT MAKES NO FUCKING DIFFERENCE, you have a series of cameras for the express purpose of catching the clear and obvious error made by the match ref, there's no way that they failed to capture the impact of the ball on Maguire's raised arm. PENALTY ALL DAY, EVERY DAY, ON EVERY PITCH ON THIS PLANET. Cargo cultists in Papua New Guinea knew that was a penalty. Aliens from fucking Alpha Centauri could've spotted that one, get stuffed you set of lying snakes. That's before even getting to the farce that was TAA's handball today. I say farce but farces are supposed to be funny. You could tell there was no way on earth they were going to overturn that goal despite the clear evidence that it was handball. You could also tell that they were about to come up with some BULLSHIT explanation for why the goal should stand, and they duly obliged, saying it was "too early in the move" to count. Right, so we can fucking dribble the goddamn thing like a basketball as long as we play another couple of passes before the eventual finish, is that it? Carragher sounded like he'd swallowed an armadillo when he saw the replay and realised how full of shit that call was, but he defended it anyway, because it's Liverpool Football Club, the greatest team in England and the natural inhabitants of the top 11. They couldn't lie straight in bed, not a one of them. Absolute disgrace.

This has been a miserable slog to wade through. And after the effort I feel you deserve this abortion. My dyslexic raver mate set up a climbing company in Jamaica. Parties of the Carabiner.

Sometimes I think I love this thread, but most of the time I Haitit.

Actually 56 points after 30 games would have had us in the CL spots in each of the last three seasons.

Yeah, at least recycle one of the good ones.

I'd laugh but I'm afraid he'd see it and peel the skin from my face.

At least Moat/Fop delayed the advent of the outdoor sofa by 10 years or so.

Accurate, then?

i once saw a stripper in jamaica. i was lucky enough to see the full monty, including the privates of the Caribbean

Time to move on.

Mugrighter, back from the dead to right mugs.

FYP

They must have spent a good half an hour in the play off spots tonight. That'll do them for another season.

I’d put Miggy back in on the right for the spurs game for Murphy with Longstaff back in for Gordon. Go back to the tried and tested formation that worked so well earlier in the season with Willock and Joe interchanging down the left

Piracy has caused the price of wheat to spiral across the Caribbean. It’s a buck an ear.

I used to work at a factory in Jamaica, making kitchenware for people who wanted to garnish their pasta dishes with the shredded flesh of a respected British character actor. Nighy grates of the Caribbean.

No matter what happens this season having big games that aren't just relegation horror shows is fucking great. Still horrible torture but a whole better class of misery

This time he’s angry

The decision to get prescription stained glasses has helped a lot in that regard.

Yeah, we've all mellowed but he's straight on here douibling down on it tbh. It's topical because if you watch the drama in question a lot of it is how Moat was glorified on social media, and this place was no exception then unfortunately. For the record, I can't be arsed with antagonism any more. SInce this that thread I've moved job twice, moved house 3 times, had 2 kids, and lost many loved ones. I think this place is much better not having the radges now tbh, I come on here for a laugh, not an argument.

And how long ago did you convert?

Tony Mowbray would probably prefer that as well.

I've absolutely zero recollection of that post, I mean absolutely zip.

To add an extra layer of weirdness, a bunch of smileys in that thread have got corrupted in our database at some point, so you've got people posting funny lines followed by "" all over the place

I must admit I got a bit excited until I saw who the author was.

Hey dickhead, we're not at the point where we need to recycle yet. We're ESPECIALLY not at the point where you can recycle MY one.
