Asprilla

Looking forward to the game as it goes...Their minds aren't right atm. If our two CM's are on it...Expect a close game. Ba can score from almost anything. 3 points to them nailed on now...! We're always so obliging when it comes to ending a team's run of bad form. Lake Bells tits, I think you make some fair points myself.

Everyone in that studio reacted like it was nonsense. Can't fake that!

A bit pedantic but I take your point...!

not that much lol tbf

I know. He's worth at LEAST £30m.

Well that would help our balance of payments. Pipe down Frenchie. It's a loss leader though innit? You get whole families where nobody works, they have more kids and those kids don't work. In some ways I can't blame them. If the choice is a shit job for shit money or, no job for the same money, then where's the incentive? We need to make people feel that work is actually worthwhile.

Minimum wage needs to be about twice what it is now IMO. I'd be happier for the government to top up wages rather than pay out for people to do nothing.

Exactly this!

Souness's seemed a bit half hearted tbf...

Depressingly true.

One of the saddest things about incidents like this is that people tend to say 'if only they'd said something' but we all know it's pretty hard to open up to people and that most people really don't want to know when someone's hurting.

I agree that it's hard not to wonder if there was something else that caused him to do it. I also agree that it's a very selfish act when there are kids involved. You may be ending your own suffering but for those left behind, it's just the beginning.

I think HBA going up to the ref was a very good sign personally.

Very sad. Can't help feeling that his kids will be the ones to truly suffer now though.

Epic. Sets us up really nicely for Chelsea.

If everyone tells you that you are wrong and that you are a cunt for thinking it then the tone has been set. If people's opinions were respectfully acknowledged and this was some sort of gentleman's club then aye, you've got a point. Its not though, its got one poster who says nothing but i told you so, its got plenty who love backing their opinions up with strong predictions and even laying money on it. If you said something and everyone jumps all over it calling you a wum cunt then there can be no complaints if that person returns with an extended finger. You cant have it both ways. I say that as a matter of principle, i couldnt give a shit who says what tbh. Amen.

At least some good has come out of it now though....! Also, it's not dubious, it's actually not a word. You either want irrespective, or regardless.

Well, the question that perhaps should be asked if why enrique wanted to leave. Sure, europe and all that, but could just as well be the unwillingness to spend money. Yes we owe him alot of money, but part of that is due to the fact that he has placed alot of debt in the club, debt that we perhaps would not have if he did a due dilligence instead of paying 3 times the going rate. Thats not the clubs fault. He might not have pocketed the cash, but when fans see us selling players for 50 million and buying replacements for 5 its a valid question where the money went. There might be a reasonable explanation but in most fans eyes - and rightly so - that seems wrong. We are not really investing in the squad, just getting the best players we can within the ( very limited ) framework of what Mike is willing to pay. Nothing wrong with that. Well, there is - but thats how the cookie crumbles. None of which was disputed or agreed with by what I said, was debating Leazes' two comments (that Ashley pockets money irregardless of a debt situation and that we're selling off all our best players) comments on a very basic level and nothing else. Not an actual word.

Because it's very unlikely we are getting any cash for that. That's the only reason?! ManC have sold their souls and they know it but I doubt more than a handful of supporters really care. The one thing we CAN say at the moment is that we're where we are via good old fashioned team spirit and scouting. That's all the point I was trying to make. The dimwits in the papers could at least acknowledge that much.

Of course we'd enjoy it and Citeh fans would think we were cunts. If it's 'just how things are' though, then why is everyone so pissed off about renaming the stadium?

Every true Citeh fan will be enjoying the ride but knowing full well it's really got nothing to do with football any more. It's no achievement to be where they are.

This from the man who said, "if you go into a hairdressers every day, you'll end up getting your hair cut".

I agree. It was all the stuff I hate about football. Oy oyyyyy!!!

Fucking Llambias gets everywhere!? ?
