Aye. Ashley's slunk off into the shadows. He's like the Hooded Claw these days. Only fatter.

Bruce is a horrible turd of a man. What was Fat Freddie thinking? I've been shit scared for years that we'll end up with him. Or just as bad O'Leary. Two men the remote control was invented for.

Must win game for the lads. Especially because it's Steve Bruce

The article was probably written by Owen's agent tbh

I had to stick a tube up someone's bum yesterday and have them fart in my face, but this has really put me off my breakfast. I trust you had a cigarette lighter ready at the end of the tube?

Disappointed when I heard. I was hoping for John Grisham

Good luck mate. If you listen to any of the "advice" on here, you'll need it

It's a rum do when an english lionheart outcheats the Spanish. Only the Italians or Chelsea can stand between Stevie Cheat and the trophy on this form

meh x a million

I'm pessimistic about this match. I think they'll have too much in midfield and upfront for us, especially in the last half hour and/or playing on the counter at pace. Hopefully Butt won't play. I'd settle for a draw tbh.

Couldnt agree more mate, thing with Xisco is, some think he cant be arsed...its not that...he's just shit! Luque the second. but...but....wasn't he picked out by our fantastic all conquering transfer team? How on earth could he be shit?

fucking hell... that was a beautiful goal... Incredible. If it was one of our lot it would've gone out for a throw in

Pretty comparable to Danny B then I always thought Collins looked like he had a stocking pulled over his head. Bit like a bank robber, only nowhere near as interesting

Good to see Elvis's chef is still working

Presumably he'll be delegating diet and fitness matters to someone else?

Could lack of match fitness have had anything to do with it? Weren't half the team (Barton, Enrique, Guthrie, Jonas, Martins) playing their way back from a spell out?

He's an old fashioned manager and doesn't understand how the system works yet. He'll be asked to put his transfer requests on a piece of paper and push them under Wisey's door a la Dave Bassett. Wisey will then eventually read them on the toilet, laugh and wipe his backside on them. Mike Oh aye. I nearly said Harry actually

Wasn't it Carl Cort's missus who was involved with a check out rage incident at Morrisons?

Interesting comments since he signed Cordone, Bassedas, Gavilan and Acuna on the word of Mick Wadsworth, all four of them were fucking rubbish. Except when he sold Gary Speed without telling you, tried to sell Bowyer to Spurs without your knowledge and refused to sign Carrick, insisting he moved for Butt instead even though they cost roughly the same amount. to be fair Sir Bobby's bad signings together amounted to like 2.5m possibly even lower compared to what they've just paid for xisco... Acuna was the most expensive at around 900k from what i remember Cort? Viana? I love Sir Bobby and I'm sorry that he's not well but we shouldn't make a saint of him. He did a fantastic job but as I've said before, it took him an awful long time to want to manage us.... A lot of clubs were after Viana iirc, it was viewed as a real coup to sign him at the time. There's no excuse for Carl Cort however

Seeing as Gutierrez moved by the Webster ruling perfectly legally, I'm not sure what their actual grounds for appeal are. If they declare you have to pay a transfer fee after all, then they've effectively overturned the ruling for no real reason. But then again I suppose if it was one of our players (or one of yours) you could understand why Mallorca are pissed off. I think they're suggesting he didn't buy himself out properly, he just walked out. So he doesn't qualify for the Webster ruling

Except when he sold Gary Speed without telling you, tried to sell Bowyer to Spurs without your knowledge and refused to sign Carrick, insisting he moved for Butt instead even though they cost roughly the same amount. Because nobody ever gets signings wrong. And I'm sure none of our current signings will turn out to be crap. Good job you remember Bobby's reign better than he does, even though he was there. Maybe he's going senile or the chemo's affected his memory

might aswel get the thread livened up a bit since theres not much to talk about. i'm sure most of you will disagree with me but as i've said before cisse is a much better player than martins and i wish we were in for him in the summer. Focus on the important stuff ffs - what about the somersaults? I expect Cisse's legs would snap in two if he jumped off a chair

He's an old fashioned manager and doesn't understand how the system works yet. He'll be asked to put his transfer requests on a piece of paper and push them under Wisey's door a la Dave Bassett. Wisey will then eventually read them on the toilet, laugh and wipe his backside on them.

He doesn't think much of Ashley's precious DoF system does he Surely it can't be as easy as picking a decent manager and backing them with time and money?

I think he's mostly in Luigi's pizza emporium, Melbourne at the moment
