Renton

Is that why you like men? Because it's sexist to say you like women? 61957[/snapback] I am NOT a homo you bastid! Gemmill's a bigger mincing queer than Meenzer tbh.

Renton's gonna have you for that. By the way Renton, any further info on different nationalities' cock sizes? 61946[/snapback] I read an article on it once. Chinese people do tend to have small cocks, but it's a myth that black people's cocks are particularly big apparently. Why are you so interested you big puff! 61950[/snapback] Well I'm not interested enough to read an article about it, that's for sure. Or is "read an article" a euphemism? 61952[/snapback] Stupidest thread ever this.

Saying black men have big cocks is stereotyping. It's not racism. Just admit you were wrong man you big gay stripey cat. 61937[/snapback] Never! I can win this argument! So you are saying its not racist to say chinese people have small cocks? I beg to differ - it's slightly racist. (And true) 61942[/snapback] You mincer! The wink on the bit where you say that it's true about Chinese mens' cocks is so gay. Having never been with a Chinese man (or any man for that matter) I'll have to defer to you. Please point out the racist parts of Souness's quotes. To save you having to go back to page 1, here they are: "I wouldn't hesitate to go back for more Turkish players. They are top-class in their approach to training and how much they want to learn. There's no attitude with them. They are all very good professionals and live right - and there are some bloody good football players amongst them. I've had four of them here in England and I've not been unhappy with any of them." Haway, where's the racism? 61943[/snapback] That bit in bold. It's slightly racist because he's characterising an entire race on a stereotype (one which I bet onlt he has). Fine if you disagree, I don't want to make a big issue of it, but like I said my main problem is that it's complete bollocks! Haway is what mackems say btw, you big ginger red and white stripey bastard! 61948[/snapback] How big are mackems cocks in general, you enormous fruit? And is it fuck racist tbh. You know as well as I do that you're talking bollocks, but you won't concede defeat. 61949[/snapback] You know I'm right! And when have you EVER admitted you were wrong?

I totally agree. The whole point of signing "turkish players" is racist, and odd, to say the least, but then again, Souness is such a fuckwit nothing surprises me. Personally, I don't give a flying fuck if someone is blue and has pink hair so long as he plays well for Newcastle United. 61776[/snapback] Eh? 61838[/snapback] It is racist in a way. He's stereotyping an entire nation which, as LM has said, is really quite odd, and patently bollocks. If he had said he only wants to sign English or Scottish players I'm sure you can see there might be a problem. Not really racist, just incredibly stupid tbh. 61861[/snapback] It's not racist in the slightest tbh. 61869[/snapback] So stereotyping people by their nationality/race isn't in the slightest bit racist, is it not? What if he had sterotyped them in a negative way, like most turks smell? 61886[/snapback] Jesus Christ Renton. People say they like the bulldog spirit/never say die attitude about English players. Is that racist? Nope. 61887[/snapback] I said what he said was slightly racist, but more important it is just complete bollocks. Just like the "bull dog spirit" of the English tbh. 61891[/snapback] It wasn't racist at all though, so in fact you're as guilty as Souness of coming out with complete bollocks. 61933[/snapback] I think it was slightly racist. What is racism if it's not characterising someone solely on the basis of their race? It doesn't have to be derogatory either - saying black men have big cocks is still racist. What in indisputable though is that it's a pile of bollocks.

My brother was talking about this incident yesterday but I can't recall it. He did look crap yesterday I thought, but I won't make a judgement until he has played at least 10 games; hopefully it won't be too long....

Oh, I meant that Nottingham is a much more attractive option.

It's wrong, but I imagine a lot of people on here have cheated (see caught with you troozas doon thread) or at least know someone that has. Does that one mistake mean that they should be forever chastised? That they deserve no sympathy even when they die? Well in order to be given that second Chance George had to be clean for at least a year (I think maybe 2). And he continued to be clean for some time after. As I understand it, it was until the mistake discussed above. When your wife leaves you and it's smothered all over the papaers what a cunt you are, I can understand a bit of self pity takes over and you might go back to drink. Call him weak or pathetic but don't say he's killed people by making that choice. I think journalists have a responsibility to report illnesses as such. Saying Bruno was batty or whatever the headline was, or that George has selfishly mistreated the new liver of a kind donor does neither cause any favours. 61911[/snapback] Alex left him because he had started drinking and fucking around again. When he signed those pledges he had a responsibility not just to himself, but also his family and the donor. It is sad that someone could use Best's actions to justify not giving a relatives organ to a donor, but nevertheless it has happened. But if George had known this would be a consequence of his actions, would he have changed? I doubt it, because basically he was a very selfish person. For the record, I hate the way the media are treating his death, like he was the new messiah or something. Let's be honest, all he was to most people on this board was a few grainy clips of football genius. His gift was a result of a fluke chance, I honestly believe he had few inspirational qualities. This celebrity culture we live in is just plain wrong.

I agree he needs a chance, but the worry is he might not be able to carry his La Liga form into the EPL, as they are quite different leagues. Thst' not an inreasonable concern imo.

Alcoholic or not, how many people cheat on their husbands or wives? Alex Best did very well out of her Marriage to George, I don't think he's harmed her at all tbh. Well that says more about peoples stupidity than George Best. If someone's getting your liver, it's likely that it's someone with liver damage. Who suffers more from liver damage than anyone else? Alcoholics. George Best has killed no-one, directly or indirectly. If anything it's sloppy & cheap journaslism that have cost us any drop in donations by making this one recipient look selfish, rather than fucked up. 61899[/snapback] So it's OK that he cheated on Alex because she got money out of it? Come on man, I know plenty of people cheat on their spouses, but it is disgusting behaviour in my book. Most alcoholics will give up when they get a second chance of life, George chose not too. I don't see how he hasn't indirectly killed people by the way, please explain. To blame it on journalists is utterly ridiculous imo.

Agree. And I agree with Lawro for once as well in that I think the minute's applause is the way to go in future to honour someone who's passed. Renders all the booing by the cock-ends totally pointless and drowns the fuckers out. A small proportion of the Liverpool fans did the same apparently. As for Best deserving no sympathy because he did it to himself, I don't agree. Alcoholism IS a disease, it's not something that a person can control. He knew it was killing him but there was nothing he could do about it. What's more, he grew up at a time when football clubs (and management) did little to support people with an alcohol problem. (Tony Adams and Paul Merson have a lot to be thankful for for modern management). I lost my uncle to it 15 years ago. He knew it was killing him and he tried to give up, fact was he ended up making himself more ill by starving himself of the stuff. This nonsense about he was given a chance 3 years ago with a transplant is exactly that, the damage was done long before that and George's body got to a point where it depended on alcohol. He's suffered a long painful death, surely that's punishment enough? And besides, the adulations and celebrations have been about Best the footballer, NOT Best the alcoholic. If Shearer turns to the grog after he hangs up his boots and drinks himself to death, it doesn't change the fact that he's one of the most talented footballers to ever grace the black and white shirt does it? 61898[/snapback] I'm sorry about your uncle, but that bit in bold is not true to be fair. It's also not true to suggest that there is nothing an alcoholic can do about his addiction, and that free will doesn't come into it. Best would still be alive and well today if he had stopped drinking after his transplant, he didn't need alcohol to live. One thing that confuses me is how he continued drinking if he was taking antabuse. From what I understand, you only have to take this tablet once a day and then it becomes almost impossible to drink. So he must have avoided taking the tablets, which requires a lot of premeditation.

My thoughts exactly!

How can you be so harsh as to not give a man whose just died a slow painful death any sympathy? Best has harmed nobody but himself. All this shite about his new liver going to somebody else and being wasted on him is crap. I think all these people hanging around Old Trafford crying are cock ends and they should be at home having one off the wrist or summat. But the only reason Best said he didn't want sympathy was because he read the Sun and believed the shite spouted as if it was the opinion of the entire public. This probably precipitated his feeling of self loathing and therefore, alcohol abuse. I think with a very few exceptions, ANYONE who dies should get a bit of sympathy, it's not like you only have a little and need to direct it at the most morally upstanding people. 61882[/snapback] I liked our last point, but I'm not sure I can agree that Best has harmed no-one but himself. Do you seriously think he didn't hurt the woman in his life through his constant infidelity? Do you think his Dad is OK with him dying before him? Also, I have read that liver donations have fallen by 50% because people don't want to donate their livers to a person who will "waste" them. So in actual fact, it could be argued that Best has actually indirectly killed people - people who deserve a chance unlike him in retrospect.

Thats why all the other clubs were lining up to buy him. It's got panic buy wrote all over it and you know it. If Owen had came first Luque would not be at the club now - fact 61873[/snapback] I think you're right. Time will tell, the jury's out etc, but I reckon we might have been fleeced.

The FACT! is, I don't think one person can argue with that statement. That being the case, Souness' time must surely end now? What is the point in keeping him on; so he can spend another astronomical amount on a player in Jan of the ilk of J.A.B that wont take the club another inch forward??? If things don't go well against Villa, the crowd have no alternative but to ask for him to be removed. 61841[/snapback] He won't be removed until the end of the season, and he'll work with Shearer in January to bring in the players Shearer wants to work with next season, I reckon. 61847[/snapback] You're probably right, although that doesn't mean it's the right decision by the club. But if results do continue as bad as this, and we slip down the table (despite having virtually our full team), then I can see him being booted out earlier. It's fairly obvious that Shearer is already the man behind most our signings, he doesn't need any "help" from Souness.

I'm sure I heard Best say once he didn't want sympathy, which is fair enough, because in all honesty he doesn't deserve it. He was a brilliant player but he was not a nice person as far as I can tell: personally I regard infidelity a pretty disgusting act for one thing, especially if it's constantly repeated. Now he's dead and he's had his one minutes "appreciation", I hope people's sympathy can be diverted to those that truely deserve it, and that may include other alcoholics who have never had the chances Best had.

Seriously, what's that supposed to mean? 61670[/snapback] Nowt man, you puff. I just threw it out there to see if it got a reaction. Enjoy Busted-for-twentysomethings. 61674[/snapback] Oh Franz Ferdinand are uncool then? This from the man that has seen Coldplay several times!

My GP wants to give me one, because I need to take salbutamol once in a blue moon. Madness, they're obviously over stocked.

I read this post fearing it would be an assasination attempt on Shearer, but thankfully it isn't. I agree to an extent; I think he should get Mike Newell as his number two. Still think he can play a few more games though - with our strikers we have little choice anyway.

Seriously, what's that supposed to mean? In fairness, I don't really give a toss anymore, hence the fact I'm posting more on general chat than on here. Everythiing's been said several times, even people like you Gemmill are slowly dawning on the fact we are basically crap. We're in limbo, and will be until we get rid of Souness. Now, instead of wasting money on Everton away, I decided to spend it on the Franz Ferdinand concert instead. Right decision I think, see you later.
