    What would it take

    I think I'd probably move on from my current feelings if it became enjoyable to support the club again (i.e. we were in the position we were in the halcyon Keegan days). Not saying I'd forgive him if we got there, but I'd 'nothing' him, rather than actively despise him.

     

    I just want to enjoy supporting the fucking club again.

    "It's dead easy if you're dealing with a British club" :lol: This bloke would be fucking hilarious if he was anywhere else but here. He's so full of shite it's painful, I'll tell you what it is John it's 3 fucking years of you running the coaching and constant weakening of the squad that has us playing Sammy Ameobi and Yoann Gouffran ffs.

    This is the second time he has had a pop at the players since the mackems game, brilliant coaching yet again, makes you wonder how he does it behind the scenes and has been doing it for the last few year. This bloke has absolutely no right to have a job at a professional football club, what a cunt.

     

    It doesn't sounds as if he's talking to the players full stop to be honest. Too many foreign languages in there, it's all very intimidating.

    CT, why in fuck are you a tory? I actually don't get it. I mean, yes, Labour did a bunch of things that were actually pretty rubbish while in power, including and especially the Iraq war (but not the deficit and financial problems because, as I've actually pointed out to you specifically before, the deficit was totally stable prior to Goldman Sachs and the Americans ruining the global economy*):

    *NB - notice how the deficit has gotten even worse under the Tories?

     

    But other than that, you must be able to see that the Tories are a bunch of charlatans who are using the economic problems as an excuse to push their ideology for total privitisation forwards, encouraged as they are by the shady hand of the corporate world which wants a bigger slice of our essential government services, and therefore much, much worse than Labour. See Royal Mail.

     

    To my mind then, you fall into one of two groups:

     

    1 - You are a corporate executive who stands to gain from the privitisation of some form of basic service or another. These being the only people that the Tories actually look after.

     

    2 - You are one of those people who swallows the lies about how the people at the top have just worked harder than everyone else, and that we're offering an equal platform for all which those who end up in squalor waste through their own poor decision making. You vote Tory because you believe that you're better than these people. The Tories aren't doing you personally any favours, and indeed your life is likely worse under them than it would be under Labour, but you feel good about yourself compared to those less fortunate. Many average Tory voting people seem to fall into this group.

     

    There is a third option which is that you're just intentionally contrary, but I've seen you change position on a number of issues before, and never on this one. As such, I suspect that this is a deeply held political position. Just curious, I guess.

    He has a new name now though, new forum goers (stop laughing at the back) won't know who you're referring to if you keep up the J69 thing.

     

    His abbreviated name is now SEW :lol: which, on thinking about it, fits with how you've just described him, somewhat.

    Other Games 14/15 - Football fans feel the same about stuff, except stuff like Western Sydney Wanderers, because no one gives a shit about them.

    Today was more about how poor City defended, than how brilliant Man Utd were attacking them.

     

    There's class going forward but Man Utd are shockingly short in defence for a team with their ambitions.

     

    True enough, but they've got the money to fix that over the summer. I think they'll probably be pushing Chelsea for the league next year, and having a fair hack at Europe as well. I think in the end that their financial clout will show through.

    He worked in a department store for 6 weeks or so at one point, stacking shelves or something like that. Otherwise, he's just been a career politician. Which really only means he's good at getting himself elected and looking pretty on TV.

     

    But then, that is the curse of democracy. Anyone remotely capable is well clear of government.

    The attempt at smearing Miliband is utterly cretinous, I very much hope they keep it up. Between this and Cameron running scared from an actual debate on policy, it should give Miliband the upper hand.

     

    That said, the Tories have been non-descript enough in power to probably pull over a good number of voters. Labour will take it but they'll need the SNP to shore it up I think - which will be used heavily as fodder for the subsequent election. There is a part of me that would thoroughly enjoy the rightwing nutjobs being forced to swallow the SNP having some pull in Westminster, but at the end of the day it'd do more harm than good to the left wing cause in the long run.
