  1. I hate to be this bloke, but the original Star Wars was shite. You have rose tinted glasses because of the age you were when you saw it the first time. If you watch them objectively now, they are shite. I loved the Alien films when I was younger, I still like them as nostalgia but objectively, shite. All the add on Alien films have been mega bad, because the original premise was bad.
  2. Yeah I get that it’s the weakest spot atm. But do you, with limited resources, spend a large chunk on someone you might be replacing next summer if a better player comes along? Realistically having to spend twice. Or spend it on a centre back, who it appears is available now, and solves a position for 6-8 years, even though you can probably do without a centre until next year? Not my money, so I’m not really arsed and I think we will get both.
  3. It’s all well and good saying rather spend the money on a right winger. Who though? We tried for Olise, which would have been class. He obviously chose Bayern. There isn’t anyone I see worth spending £60 million quid on imo, so do you hold your piss and wait until the right player becomes available maybe next year or spunk your money on someone you aren’t 100% on just to plug a gap? I think our transfer record shows we sign the right players, when they are available rather than players we are not sure on to plug holes. Which is probably why we got 2 left wingers at similar times. I still think we probably will buy a right winger this summer but haven’t a clue who it will be.
  4. Didn’t your school have a football team or something?
  5. Plain white mate, can’t get away with a floral. Not many blokes can tbh
  6. Bit of a difference between the Rochdale canal through ancoats and the grand canal in Venice mind. I have tested for covid but no dice
  7. I’m a married man, the wedding was class if a bit too quick. We got really lucky with the weather (see I sweated my tits off). Little break in Venice for honeymoon, which was amazing. Highly recommended if you’ve never been. Throat felt a bit sore on the flight on the way home, chest infection. Coughing up all sorts of muck, feel pure shite. Welcome back to normal life I suppose.
  8. Bloke goes into a butchers and asks “Have you got a pigs head?” Butcher says “no, it’s just the way I do my hair”
  9. The word potentially is doing a lot of heavy lifting there like. Minteh never played for us. So losing him doesn’t make the squad worse, Anderson was a back up at best and we have Tonali back.

    Not sure I agree with this part mate. The best managers in the world aren’t international managers anymore, they want to work at club level.
  11. Missed a grim double ended dildo scene towards the end mind
  12. We’ve had a cunt drop out from the wedding 6 days beforehand so if you can answer to Leanne for food and that, come and have a feed and a drink up, gratis.
  13. Someone seems to have taken shots at Trump. Wish they had hit. Although I have some worries it will end up being some weird false flag type shit to help trump win the election.
  14. First half was good. Southgate out thought himself at half time, went to a back 4 for 15 minutes and we lost all momentum. He switched back when he realised he fucked up, then we got a late winner again. More luck than judgement. Sometimes better to be lucky than good, the Southgate family motto
  15. There’s a lot of monied private school kids in Yarm who like to rebel when they hit college/uni, it made for a decent few years as a teenage scruff from boro.
  16. There’s a lot of speculation in here around Trippiers life based on nowt. I’ve seen the house for sale rumours, also seen rumours he has just moved gaff. Getting involved in players personal lives is weird imo, he’s a football who plays for our team. Whatever happens in his personal life is his problem, unless it becomes an Adam Johnson situation. Probably loads of lads on here who wouldn’t want their personal lives looked into.
  17. Yarm is lovely, but you are voluntarily spending time in Stockton if you go there
  18. Fucking Sunderland nearly voting for reform
  19. Just saying to our lass, wheel her out the back and let her die quietly in the green room, the fucking ghoul.
  20. I like that Campbell shut her down straight away
  21. Gorton and Denton here, deffo going to be held by labour
  22. If you have to work those kind of hours, you’re shit at your job imo. Apart from meetings I think I have my actual work pared down to about 16 hours a week. It’s easy because can actually do my job properly.
  23. Probably should lay off eating cow shit mate
