It's going to be the caning to end all canings IMO. Liverpool are in form and we're falling apart. I fucking hate Liverpool as well, (although it's harder now they have Klopp) but when they win, and the 5th or 6th goal goes in, I don't think I'll even care. This team deserves to get it's ass kicked up and down the field if they play like they have been.
I predict that the forward (Cisse or Mitro) will be isolated and useless all game; Gini will disappear; if Tiote's playing his contributions will be giving them the ball variously throughout the game as well as the inevitable foul that gets him booked and sets up one of their goals from the resultant set play; the entire defense will cave under pressure, probably when they realise that Liverpool aren't going to give them the 3 or 4 seconds they need on the ball to make the next pass; Janmaat will start charging forwards to try and force some kind of response only for the move to fall over because no one bothered to go with him, and Liverpool will subsequently counter down the same flank, Sissoko watching drearily as they charge past, all of which will result in another one of the goals we'll concede; and McClaren will come out at the end at an utter loss to explain it all but will commit to bringing the players in an hour early the following day to teach them a lesson that they're too fucking thick/indifferent to understand, thus allowing the whole cycle to repeat.

BBT ran its course but was great back in the day when it genuinely was a fresh show and enjoyable if you had the vaguest handle on contemporary pop culture.
Haven't seen the Mindy show... Will try that, and catastrophe. Found myself watching blackadder the other day - have always enjoyed that. Hard to beat the classics.

He's absolutely right that they're fascists. They hate everything about us, particularly our democracy, freedom, our tolerance, - all things the UK hs fought to uphold and values the Labour Party stands for.
You're absolutely right.
But that has no bearing whatsoever on why we're doing this. 66 Labour MPs voted for it because they think it'll make them look credible and that there will be votes in it. The Tories voted for it at best because our involvement will be significant in international relations management with other foreign powers. Absolutely no one, not even Hillary fucking Benn, thinks that we're doing this because of a moral imperative to combat fucking fascism. If that were true, why aren't we doing that everywhere? If we really cared about terrorism, why don't we just take out Saudi Arabia, the main source of funding and Islamic religious brainwashing?
I just wish they'd come out and say it. I could get behind shit like this if someone came out and said 'look, ISIS aren't that big a deal really, but our involvement in a pointless bombing campaign is important for making the UK look credible at the international level in terms of militaristic involvement'. I'd think it was cold, but I could at least accept that governments have to make hard decisions to look after our interests. And probably be grateful that I don't have to do the same thing.
I don't think it's about protecting us, because they can't protect us from this. Until Islam moves past this particular phase, which we could enable but are choosing to prevent, there is nothing our governments can do to solve this (without looking like fascists themselves). So we're going to go and blow up some crazed religious fuckwits in Syria, along with the children they will hide behind. Fucking well done everyone. No wonder the whole world despises us...

Posted a few weeks ago about a management course I've been put on at work.
Next weekend away is coming up and we have been sent some homework to "bullet point your life". I am dreading the heartfelt shite already, there is 3 blokes out of 12 people. The last time we have "our proudest moments" 5/9 girls was giving birth (commence crying), one was coming out as a lesbian (fair enough) and the other was losing about 7 stone (she has put it back on).
How do I go about bullet pointing my life without it being, born, school, college, work, uni, work, now? I am thinking about using the story from Pinochio and changing it a bit and see if anyone notices
I had to do something very similar to this, and I very literally just made shit up that I thought people would find interesting. Just because they're on a course with you, doesn't mean they need to know anything more about you than you would tell them off your own bat. I hate all that new age management bollocks.

This thread.HF keeps swinging, regardless of who comes in, and toonotl just cannot for the life of him resist the temptation to dive on his posts.
Renton looks like he's about to get sucked back in as well...
I reckon all of this has been necessary and cathartic though
And we'll be bombing Syria either way.
-
that is awesome.
-
That's actually hilarious. We just can't get rid of him.

What the actual phuck is wrong with that dog...

What would a boycott actually achieve though. He spent money, he has a new manager - there's almost no point now. A sustained campaign for forcing him out, yes, but a boycott for one game isn't going to make a blind bit of difference.

I thought the blame would somehow end up with Elliot.
I've been pretty consistent on my dismay that Elliot plays for us. He's a League 1 keeper at best and I have no doubt that Krul would have turned some of these shellackings into more respectable scorelines if not necessarily made any real difference in terms of points. I just think the whole team looks nervous whenever he's playing.
-
What was the paper on? And kudos, well done.
-
Fair enough I guess, but I'm pretty sure that all of our absolute canings this season have been with Elliot in goal. Not saying it's all his fault by any stretch, but we look so nervous when he's there...
-
I think you could look to Eliot and say much the same thing mind... Perhaps Tim organises the defence a lot better than Eliot...
-
Moyes probably. Wouldn't expect anything really but he would have been a better appointment than McClaren to begin with.
Hell no to Rodgers, he's the last thing we need.
-
I think it's worse now than it was last year. The reality now is that even getting rid of Ashley won't solve anything. Assuming he left tomorrow, it'd be years before we stabilised and cleared the deadwood, years before a new team could be developed, and we'd almost certainly be in the championship for an extended stay. He's actually killed the club IMO. What we're seeing now are death throes.

Sinead OConnor just posted a suicide note on Facebook :\

Any idea what all that was about?

If this were a home remodel, you wouldn't bother. You'd gut it and start from the ground up. Bring in the wrecking ball. Perez might be the only one I'd keep.
Agreed. Although to be honest, at this point, I'm struggling to respond in any way whatsoever to our recent performances. This isn't the club I grew up watching, it doesn't even deserve to be considered the shell of that club.
-
Agree with that - de Jong is likely at least competent in centre mid, I really don't understand what it is about him that's putting McClaren off.

What the fucking hell has this place turned into?
OMG IT'S WINE O CLOCK!
Football became gentrified and we along with it.
You only disapprove because alcohol fucks up your chi.

I don't care how pretentious that sounded.
plagiarism...
