  1. Seeing how good Cannavaro was in the flesh almost made that game bearable
  2. ASM must’ve made a fucking fortune with his last 3 moves. Pleased for him if it happens as it’s a much more competitive league and he’s too young to be seeing out his career in Saudi Arabia
  3. Aye, he was completely skint before the Burnley gig apparently. You have to wonder what might’ve happened if we’d appointed a decent manager instead of Souness back then. It started a decline the club never really recovered from until the recent takeover. The period where it seemed to be just about Shearer breaking Milburn’s record, to the detriment of the team was quite embarrassing imo. Bellamy wasn’t blameless, his not really having a long spell at any other club tells it’s own story. But Souness and his bullying tactics were never likely to work in the younger players. And it was galling to see Bellamy sold for peanuts only for Souness to be allowed to waste a fortune on lesser players. I do wish Bellamy luck and wonder if his hard times have given him a new perspective. Kompany obviously rates him. What I always admired about him was the way he played. Football would be better if everyone played like him. I would always argue with opposition fabs who hated him. The worst thing he ever did on the pitch was being a mouthy prick (so what?) He always gave 100%. He wasn’t a dirty player who left his foot in, he wasn’t a diver. He wasn’t a cheat at all. He actually played the game the right way imo
  4. The other side says ‘Are so fucking shit’
  5. It’s true what they say about there being no funny right wing comedians
  6. Delighted that Brendan Clarke-Smith lost his seat btw.
  7. Doesn’t mean Reform’s lies shouldn’t be highlighted. I get that ‘Sharp’ is just a terminally dull WUM and that an explanation won’t be forthcoming. Because there isn’t one
  8. Explain how a party that would slash public spending to fund tax cuts (that are even then completely unfunded and would cause a larger financial crisis than the Truss administration) are then going to be able to fulfil any of their promises.
  9. Possibly the two who the members might go for but who are also power mad (and just actually mad) enough to take it. Hope so as a lurch further to the right isn’t what they need. And I’m all for the Tory party destroying itself even more
  10. I’d be sorry to see him go in many ways. But now would be the time if the club wanted to cash in. And the FEWM from down the road would be incredible. You’d also have to think it would be player we could demand a decent fee for. Current England international with a year left on his contract. Coupled with premium their clubs have been willing to pay for other players
  11. Sounds like him or his agent is trying to force the move of that’s true. And there’s a canny few footballers who’ve needed to raise substantial funds for a divorce settlement in the past, so it would make sense.
  12. It’s done really well out of the levelling up agenda
  13. Aye, it’s funny like. My lass isn’t that into football but couldn’t watch the pens due to the tension . I wanted England to win but I really wasn’t that arsed.
  14. I want Hurricane Higgins. Or at the very least Kirk Stevens. Failing that, Tony Knowles.
  15. What a deluded arsehole he is, man. I think him and Francois genuinely believe they’re canny hard as well.
  16. Because he’s an infinitely better person
  17. That’s not real, is it?
  18. Well he’s probably a paedo. Trump not Robin
  19. I think he said “to paraphrase”
  20. Difficult to judge this one. Who can say whether the build up to the semi final will match the tedium of the game itself?
  21. LTA is a young lass from Australia btw. Maybe take that into consideration as they mightn’t be quite as thick skinned as the rest of us old cunts
