fuck. its like a curse is on us (or hopefully fat mike). Taylor's back right in time, as usual.

Great article that. I need a Happy Face graph to show if we have actually "spent" anything though , in terms of Ashley investment. I bleated on in the McLaren thread about this, but 80mil is not the same buying power as it was even 2 years ago . I don't see 80 mil in two windows, with the increased tv rights money as "putting the wheels on the cart" or whatever. It buys you nowt really. Wasn't it the aussies who put a law in saying that you can't own a football club unless you have a direct attachment or show by proof of investment? something needs to be done, the council are opposed, the public are opposed and no one likes to see this sort of ownership.

Every day this trial goes on it gets worse... disgusting.

I think its a bit harsh again on here. Do you want the manager to say the players are all shit and be all depressed? He needs to try and keep spirits up and keep the players onside in coaching to actually get them to learn how to play again. all this 80 mil talk, yep its a lot of money, and a few years ago it's a lot of money as far as transfers go, but now its fuck all - clubs are spunking that sum on ONE player. If you want a world class player you're paying 80 mil plus some. I'm keeping the faith, Saturday was shocking , but I can't blame McLaren for not having defenders as I still think he's got very little to do with transfers. Getting Shelvey, Mitrovic and Townsend were probably his only "purely independent" decisions. So disappointed... I really don't want us going back to hoofball in order to get results.

lol, this has all stemmed from me offering Gemmil a reach around last week innit? You've got all jealous and angry.

Aww thought you were asking me my age <edited here at 9:10 GMT for Ewarks accountability> forget that, want to see my house, I've a signed shirt by Keegan you can have? This is my view: http://imagesus.homeaway.com/mda01/036af5e8-4154-4637-b2a3-b675304b7386.1.10 You can come round here and spend Friday nights with me if you want, and we can hold hands and wonder why we started on such a bad foot, as we look out over the ocean before I go sell my watches.

so now I've abandoned the legislative WTF are you talking about? You asked for the law, I provided it, it says EXACTLY what I posted and what now ? Not much else on... oooo. so, Ewark. What are you wearing?

My friends all drive 10 year old banged out Japanese motors that we pay the same price as a bloody Porsche for.

I think we should arrange a toontastic union / night out - so we can all fight each other. United we stand, not in this forum you flaming nutters! PS. I love you all, except Ewark, whos just nasty to me - but you know what they say - you're always nasty to the people you want to neck with.

or at least it can be argued that he can reasonably know. That's what courts are for you see, it's a shame that its not as simple as "Ask Ewark" but that's the world I'm afraid.

I edited it for the other bit. That was before I went down the beach to sell those watches remember? Not a very friendly guy are you? Hows it exactly the point you are making, he can reasonably know hes in a position of trust when he's bringing the club into his grooming excersize with signed shirts etc. It's clear she idolises him only for his position as a premier league footballer for her hometown club. Editing again to wind you up.

Did you even read my post, or the specific link to the specific explanation of "abuse of position of trust" for sexual abuse? You come on, as usual with some snyde I know "the facts" everyone who disagrees is wrong, ask me to show you the law you quoted yourself, with the definition and that's the best you can do? How about, oh, ok then. cheers for showing me, since I asked you.

take a look at my balls and tell me where the smell's coming from. www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2003/42/part/1/crossheading/abuse-of-position-of-trust want spoonfeeding more? Ok then "F1 - subsection 2 , where <snip> knows or could reasonably be expected to know of the circumstances by virtue of which he in a position of trust <snip> Will that do? I think so, the whole "signed shirt" thing will fuck him right up hopefully. In other news - its a crime he's knocked back a belter of a lass, for a kid: www.facebook.com/stacey.flounders

Given his performance with the kids last week, I'm in no rush to see him. Emergency backup I hope at best, I want Perez and Mitro together up front, there's chemistry there I tell you.

Kevins got a point you know, I'd say the position of trust could be used. He's got an assumed responsibility as a football star in his community.

Backing CT on this one, streaming is not covered by any law against the consumer. It is absolutely illegal to broadcast someone else's content, but there's no case (yet) of anyone being tried under copyright infringement for consuming (you're not copying in this instance). How do I know about this? My country has just put in a copyright law and it was stated at the time that consumption can't really be covered as there's no legal precedent yet.

5-1 toon, Gino hat trick

Well, nolie, it kicks in with the age of consent.

Noelie, there's a big difference between 17 and 15 and Adam Johnson. It's fucking inexcusable and I hope he spends a very long time in Durham's peado wing. Just a shame my chef mate who used to put manky pidgeons in their stew and piss on their chips , is no longer inside.

fair enough, I'll stick with my own view that this is a team playing far more attractive football and agree to disagree then. I'll haunt this thread when we win the champions league though.. LOL

And we were better than that before were we? And why all this banding about of 75 million - I can't understand why you expect instant results from new signings, no one gets that, with the best players in the world. Look at Ozil at Arsenal, he's a phenomenal player and it took him 6 months, or how about that 100's of mil player that Man U had up front, who did sweet FA.

I like the guy, we haven't even paid for him and he played for us last weekend. My mate was saying he was even applauding the toon fans.

Well, lets see in a year. I think you're being harsh. Can't dispute the points, but again, I'm happy they are playing better football and losing than getting 16 more points with Pardews dross but being unable to progress any further. Once this team get the basics and adapt the potential is higher, than Pardê ever had. Could be completely wrong, but some do stretch the argument by saying the footies no better. they are definitely passing to feet much more and passing forward, pardew was just fuckin hoof it from defence to attack, that's been gladly missing since Sept. Edit: the pardew@38 vs McLaren 25 needs bold HF or its misleading. Don't make me pull you on labelling again.

hardly the best intro to a new league and signing though is it? Here you go, play out of position.. Who knows what Aarons is showing in training?

That's my point thon , I dont think any better than Pardew will work with Ashley. McLaren is definitely a step up from pards.
