Dr Gloom

it's a no from me. can't imagine anyone voting yes other than CT and assorted wind up merchants.

I'm excited by what he'll be like when fully fit. Its only been glimpses so far but he looks better with every game. He's obviously in a different league technically to the rest of the squad. Looks an arsenal player to me.

it's infuriating

i found the crowd at swansea breaking into applause quite moving. it was spontaneous and affectionate. it wasn't arseholes that were making disrepectful noises that started it i don't think. still can't get my head around this story. very sad indeed.

we never should have sold him when we did either. our decline coincided with his departure and he went on to put in at least another three or four good years in at bolton. still stunned by this news.

he was on footie focus yesterday, looking in great shape, articulate and seemingly happy. mad

more disgusting highlights, this time on soccer saturday. didn't show any of our first half chances. only the collocini effort and the pen. then the analysis is all about the pen decision. fair play though to vinnie jones for saying we're back where we belong

fucking hell, suicide! so sad. i guess someone can look like they've got everything but still you never know what's going on under the surface. absolutely quality quality player for us. RIP

who was making thease analysis like shearer and lawro

disgusting analysis on motd. it was all about us defending as if the whole 90 mins was backs to the wall. they didn't highlight any of our attacking play at all.

fair play to the kid, he's been one of our best players this season. he looks a far better shot stopper than haroper

what a result. fair play to pardew like; it takes some performance to get a result at old trafford. we keep surpassing expectations, and you have to tip your hat to the manager when you look at the way he's had to assemble a side on a shoestring. i had no idea i'd be looking forward to motd so much this season. i quite fancy a result against chelsea at home now. it'll be interesting to see though what the atmosphere is like. the team need backing but the owner needs slating too over the name change.

i really like the design of the new anfield with the massive kop stand. bit different to the usual bowl design. good to see a massive lack of progress there though

i can't see anything but a home win this weekend. man u are the masters of picking up three points even when they're not playing that well. and they almost always beat us at home. we've only picked up two points out of the last ten visits there.

I tell you what though, I'll stop mentioning him altogether if everyone else promises to stop biting and cluttering up the forum. Alternatively, I'll take him off ignore if leazesmag promises to drop it.

I'm honestly not. I can't see what he's posting, I don't give a fuck if he bites at what i say. I wouldn't keep mentioning it if it wasn't evident in almost every single thread, even with him on ignore. Just wish more people would let it lie for the sake of the board. The irony about leazesmag of couse is he can be a half decent poster when he's not banging on about the same old crap.

It's hard not to when you see the same shit in every thread. If fewer people rose to it, perhaps he'd stop. This place would improve tenfold if you could enter what looks like an interesting topic without knowing its going to end up in the usual ding dong over Ashley v shepherd. It's killing this place man

I think he's more culpable. He goes fishing for bites in every single thread be posts in. I can see that even with him on ignore. Agee that more people should refrain from biting

Leazesmag should change his username to threadkiller. You can barely find one topic on here that he's posted in that hasn't descended into the usual farce.

That's pretty offensive.

Not true. My granddad, Scottish catholic, converted to marry my grandma.

How the fuck could we? what, no bites?

this is one of the hardest things to explain to people; being Anti Zionist (for example opposing Israeli occupation of Palestine) is not being Anti Semite (which is prejudice against Jews). i think your post brings out the difference, in being Anti Zionist but not Anti Semitic. I've met a fair few Jewish millionaires and one billionaire they were all Zionists to a man. None even considered Palestine as having any claim to statehood. The real difference is the normal Jews in Israel (who aren't propogandised or in the army) have relatively balanced views on Palestine and the role of Israel in international affairs. But the ruling intelligencia of that country are bordering on genocidal maniacs. Rabin was a great man. There were real prospects for peace with him leading Israel. As long as the Likud are in power with the likes of Sharon and Netanyahu are in charge, there will never be real reconciliation. The problem for Israel, is while most people that live there are liberal and pro-peace, there are a small minority of extremeists that weild far too much influence in the Knesset. Plus a generation that grew up living in fear amid suicide bombers is becoming more reactionary in the way it votes.

the original (and the best) mix. hand in the air on this one, for shiz

lest we forget the holocaust is without doubt the darkest and most extreme example of genocide in history. shocking that we've seen similar cases of ethnic cleansing elsewhere across the globe in recent years.
