I do have some begrudging respect for you from time to time, to be fair. You're here posting, for reasons no one here fully understands, even when Sunderland are going down. You're not fairweather about it. But seriously, why are you here?? I'm starting to think that RTG must be really, really bad.

This thread is 75% a running commentary on Leazes' mental state, 20% pissing about, and 5% Twitter.

Still, overall this looks pretty encouraging for the club. 6 or 7 signings at least serves as an acknowledgement that action is needed. I'm wondering who is actually going to negotiate these deals though...?

...I don't particularly miss Dyer But otherwise yes..still, we'll get back to those dizzy heights some day.

Ramos is staggeringly unreliable... I'm sure that at least the third time this season he's been sent off.

Definitely possible - and as you say, it may be more to do with Cabaye than Pardew, but I can remember us starting certain games well also. I suppose though, that the majority of our goals probably fall in the final 1/4 of the game, which would support what you're saying. We seem to be more about counter attack than possession currently anyway, relying on Sissoko, Debuchy et al to get it up field quickly,

Hahaha EDIT - I mean That's the first time I've actually seen something funny enough to warrant that smiley.

I don't even know what you'd picture for that...? Is the Roomba a participant or more like a mobile platform for a change of scenery as you fornicate?

Des appears to be ODing on memes

Yeah that's fair enough. I also think that given the rise of teams like Swansea its become difficult to argue that you can only create that attractive brand of football by investing heavily on foreign superstars. The Guardian ran something on this recently with respect of trying to work out where David Moyes places in this, and ultimately arguing that his lack of appreciation for the finer side of the game would be his undoing. I think they placed him around the same level as Pardew in being a halfway house between the respective styles of Pulis and Guardiola. Pardew sometimes has us passing it about better than I can remember seeing (or he did when Cabaye was here), but often reverts to the crap route one stuff under pressure.

And you weren't at all tempted to run the quiz around the anus expanding device that can stretch you up to 4 inches...? That was a fucking scary article, mind.

I shouldn't, I read the same article I also can't remember. Curious that of all of them, that's the one you chose though... EDIT - Cracked?

:lol:

I reckon it's some kind of mutually beneficial sexual aid.

Fish has been here so long that he, alongside a few others, arguably *is* the forum mind you...

Agreed, but he's not as negative as Pulis at least. Saying that, there's so much dross in the PL at the moment that arguably he is one of the top ten managers in the league...

Howay's was a bit more coherent tbf. And yes, DC hasn't been around for a while Weird that.

Nice one, it's nice to hear about happy families from time to time.

I think the general consensus was that its origins had something to do with Russian porn.

...it's actually pretty worrying. I know it's been said but there's a really unhealthy obsession with both himself and this forum. EDIT - Although I confess it remains amusing.

Surely that has to be some kind of a record though? Villa Park holds about 35k right? If 'a few' is less than 10, then it's like 20-25k people walking out. Many at half time. That's just embarrassing.

That is awesome She's a good fit for it though! The anime that is...not what you said. Although...

Apparently there were only a few thousand Villa fans left before 90 mins expired...That must mean about 20k people left early.
