  1. Refs doing his best to "not be the story" now, only giving us anything if its in a non-threatening midfield spot.
  2. Aye thats about where I am, I don't know when we started expecting keepers to save a shot that deflects that close to them but it being Karius is definitely part of it. Commentators are eating that particular narrative up, if its not him nothing mores said of it imo. We've acquitted ourselves well for the most part so far, form and quality always pointed to them winning this.
  3. Off to bed soon and up at 5 on monday for the match! Not sure how easy sleep will come but these few beers should help!
  4. He does have previous, his final months at bournemouth werent great iirc
  5. Straight out of the Mike Ashley playbook that one.
  6. We sort of started the season like this, after we beat forest on the opening day we drew 5 and lost to Liverpool before we got our shit together. The only thing interrupting that run was a win in the league cup, which sounds alright.
  7. A spam account, which you now can't see, posted in here.
  8. Really zinged that ten year old post mate. Good job.
  9. Cant see it happening, but yes please.
  10. Wood to Notts Forest has been made permanent for 15 million. Thats a ridiculous bit of business by our lot. 10 million outlay, condemned Burnley to the drop when we were in the mix and he made a massive difference in our absurd run of form last season when we were desperate for a forward.
  11. https://www.guitarworld.com/news/roger-waters-rerecords-pink-floyd-the-dark-side-of-the-moon Waters has pretty much always been a cunt but, well, what a cunt roger waters is
  12. So Gabriels had that yellow rescinded, granted the foul was pretty harmless, but if he had absolutely scythed Haaland down and been sent off for snapping him in half, would that be pulled back per these rules?
  13. Are they still cheaper than buying the speakers on their own? Ended up not buying one as I found a good deal on a 112 and a different 212 more locally but I recall them being good value even accounting for shipping to NZ a couple of years ago.
  14. I do feel a bit sorry for Juan Laporta, first tenure he got in RIjkaard and that superb team and then brought in Pep and the success that they had. Left and came back a decade later to Bartomeu saddling the club with masses of debt and criminal charges
  15. Aw thanks. It was alright.
  16. Absolutely, if its a small gathering of the upper management who they all know personally and that sort of shit flies...fine I guess, its still a shite line but if its audience is a known quantity then they'll get away with it at least. If thats being made to a gathering of the company as a whole, just no. There are plenty of crap jokes to make that aren't innuendos about the sort of dicks she likes to take that run the risk of fairly reasonable complaints of both sexism and racism from those hearing it. That sort of shite should not be coming out of the CEOs mouth to their staff.
  17. Abso-fucking-lutely Theres a lot of high brow bullshit being spouted, Barney Ronays latest headline "If Manchester City are guilty they have betrayed football as a spectacle" Settle down eh Barney? These rules are 10 or so years old and were originally intended publicly to stop clubs going into massive, unsustainable debt and privately as KCG says to protect the clubs already making shit loads of money from someone coming up and competing with them. I've never had a problem with the way City or Chelsea before them or Man U or Blackburn or whoever spent money, it always seemed to me like the typical way of football, some rich bloke buys players, except now the rich blokes are the richest blokes, nothings actually changed its just City winning it more often than not now instead of Man U.
  18. I didn't see the game in question but having seen plenty of ASM before, is this really the case? ASMs trick is that he can dribble and work space for himself, he loves to do it in fact, he wants to take everyone on. He also doesn't track back so if he gets his overlapping attacking fullback, the overlap happens, he doesn't pass because hes doing his thing and then loses the ball, we've then got no one defending the left flank. I feel like ASM only works with a Burn behind him. The other option being a genetic freak of a LB who can charge up and down at rapid pace all game and is also a mint defender or setting up the entire team to facilitate ASMs lack of defending in such a way that he simply hasn't earned with end product.
