Has anyone got the MotD highlights? Missed it last night.

Was the Troyes game 4-4 on the night or aggregate? Can't remember. Anyway, nearly left at HT then but didn't.

I bet there isn’t another club in the PL that has a lower net spend on squad strengthening than us this season. And we’re not the only club carrying significant debt. Read today that Everton have gone five or six transfer windows without a net spend. Sounds plausible. Might be why they’re three points off the relegation zone. They’re a good example. Moyes is an astute manager who has been bucking the trend but eventually a lack of investment will take its toll. The difference between them and us is they are a stable club with a good manager, whereas we are in a constant state of turmoil and being managed by some bloke dekka reportedly met at a casino. Exactly. Moyes has gone above & beyond in terms of buying and developing Championship players to replace other players shipped out at huge profit. But eventually even the best manager (& his scouts) will end up with a dearth of talent and results on the pitch will reflect that.

Look at Gemmil go. You'll be on the 'roids next. Filling the void as Tyneside's ginger upside-down triangle left empty since Raul Moat's demise.

Bearing in mind that they've got themselves into a shit-load of debt trying to organise an advertising campaign, I can't see any prospective owner knocking their door down for business advice.

At 5 foot 8 and about 10 stone he's not exactly lone striker material is he?

Haven't been to Hartlepool in a while (maybe the last friendly we played there when Barton made his debut? First time I'd seen Carroll in the flesh that day too), but it always seemed to be about 20 years behind everywhere else.

Best wasn't even getting on the bench six weeks ago, he was completely forgotten about and off the radar. Now we're keeping our fingers crossed that he won't get injured and can find some goalscoring form to keep us out of the mire

I can only assume you've never been to Stoke. You're right, I haven't. It's the only place in liverpool I've been to, other than Goodison Park & surrounding area, and driving out of town after getting a ferry back from the Isle of Man; Lots of boarded up terraced houses next to City of Culture banners is all I recall of that particular journey. I'm sorry, but Hull is properly shit.

Has anyone else heard the story that Everton are on the brink of administration?

St. Helens Derby Hull Stockton Keighley Grimsby Doncaster Huyton Blackpool Milford Haven Staines Harlow Chatham / Strood / Gillingham (all the Medway towns except Rochester really) are the worst UK towns I can recall visiting. I'm sure I think of more though

I said when Best scored the hat-trick against West Ham, that's it, they'll think they can do without Carroll now, it's took him a year almost to score for us but now they'll think well we've got another goalscorer, lets cash in on Carroll. I was joking at the time tho

The last I seen of him was on Soccer AM a few years ago. I think he was trying to look out for a new team and was also doing a bit on football consulting. Consulting on what? I do not know! Crepe making. Where did Aliadiere go after boro?

On what grounds would we apply for an emergency loan? We were too stupid to buy someone two days ago??

It's easier to pull the wool over the eyes of bairns & dummies though isn't it? [/awaits the sound of Gejon's approaching footsteps]

A 50p shaped one to fit his heed?

Come on Nutz, lets have an under/over on what he'll spend in the summer.

You're the only one who keeps mentioning him. You don't share Slovenian heritage by any chance do you?

He deffo gets a buzz out of being portrayed as a pantomime villain-type bad guy. He also doesn't give a fuck about what anyone thinks about the way he runs the club.

This. Hopefully his lifestyle will catch up with him, his form will go to shit, or even better he end up in jail.

This is the piss-taking forum though to be fair, not the first place to come if you're looking for tea & sympathy (or even sensible advice). But aye, chin up Toon_Man, keep on keeping on.
