I love 3 Feet High and Rising. RIP Trugoy the Dove

Getting the first trophy would be massive for all sorts of reasons. What I really taking issue with was the assumption the club made a conscious decision not to get someone like Maddison in last month (not you but it does seem to be what sone fans think). It’s far more likely he wasn’t available (like Gordon in the summer). I know people will think letting Wood and Shelvey go without direct replacements was a risk. But not taking the opportunity to get rid was maybe a bigger risk to the long / medium term plan. I.e. being saddled with them and it preventing getting as many players in come the summer. Especially given the latter’s extension clause. I know what you mean about fabs not being rational but it’s the job of the people running the club to take a more objective view

We signed a player for £40m. It’s not a missed chance if other targets weren’t available. People go on like you just make a bid for someone and the other club let’s them go just like that. It doesn’t work like that. We’ve made huge strides and are living with legacy of being a zombie club for over a decade. We’re hampered by ffp because our revenue is a joke. We’re performing way above expectations.

Would love to see them fuck up and Man City win the league. What a bunch of entitled wankers they are. It would be the one time that little cunt off Arsenal tv or whatever it’s called would be worth watching -
He’s an absolute cunt 👍🏻

A big club would’ve got that decision

The football they play is what they inaccurately say we play. Yet we play football that’s shit but theirs is great They looked decent (but second best) against a Fulham team missing some of their best players. Get some perspective ffs

We play awful football in the same way the stuff they play is the best they’ve seen in 40-odd years.

There was a documentary years ago with David Elleray mic’ed up. I seem to remember Tony Adams and co giving him dog’s abuse but all he took umbrage with was being called a cheat -
Heenz Beenz are vastly overrated

He lied. About the whip round -
That Robson Green series is about as inoffensive as it gets.

Not cliched enough

It’s by no means unique to those troglodytes but why do people think they can give a player dog’s abuse then lose their shit when they get a little bit back?
