Can't believe there are genuine arguments going on over whether Wigan winning a final is good or bad. How the fuck can anyone prove it either way? It's not as if beating Arsenal or losing to Arsenal would be evidence.

Inaction is a perfectly feasible action.

And also this, which is also canny good:

Just came close to pissing myself laughing at this thread: http://www.readytogo.net/smb/showthread.php?t=773036&page=17

You know you've made it when...

I don't understand how it's possible for a professional footballer to be consistently shite at set pieces.

Priorities are surely a centre back and a striker, and replacements for any outgoings.

I bloody don't! Give me the weekend, any er.. day of the week.

QPR have gone 365 minutes without a PL Goal, Newcastle 262 minutes.

Prepare to fume - that's exactly what Ashley is doing now. He'll probably take £10-20m of his loan back each season from now on, if we stay up.

Just had a quick look at their accounts. Whelan didn't draw any salary in either of the previous two seasons. The club appears to be supported by loans from various sources, the biggest creditor being the bank. The loans are secured by personal guarantee from Whelan himself, implying they don't own their stadium. Haven't got the time to dig deeper, and it's off on a bit of a tangent from the rest of the thread anyway...

Also, I think the club was bank rolled by Whelan in the past. If I remember correctly, they owed him something like £70-80m at one point, but this has come right down recently. On that basis, he's taken some of his loan back, but he's still owed money.

They've got a low wage bill, but they also have quite a low turnover. I think they actually turned over a profit last season, but they're just not a big enough draw to make sustained profits AND pay out the wages needed to attract and retain the top players.

I'm sure I have a scrap book full of Chronicle match reports from that season. Probably somewhere in my mam and dad's loft unfortunately.

Wigan looked canny going forward against Swansea, but their defence was as bad as I've seen in a long time. Providing they don't do anything silly like get a man sent off, Arsenal should have no trouble picking them off.

What a fucking invalid.

Undoubtedly useful. It'll come in handy for energy during the event, energy after the event or even to lubricate the face prior to a messy session of cunnilingus.

On the basis that Redknapp is definitely in charge of QPR next season, who do you think he'd rather be competing with for promotion? Is there a chance he might prefer to come up against Wigan?

The Scouse Media Mafia expands further.

When we're not playing at home, I watch most of my football on streams or at the pub, so can't see the need personally.

I think he'll do fine. The biggest hurdle to over come will be the short term form. If he hasn't won the league in his first couple of seasons, the knives will be out.

Aye, the gurning is particularly irritating.

I reckon she'd pull off the "my mascara is running everywhere as I've been gagged by your cock" look brilliantly.
