Oh this is SPLENDID!!

AGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!

Like that's happened to him...

Indeed.

Absolutely, it's nothing against Blackburn. Imagine if he managed Sunderland!!! OMG.

".... ______ scored a late winner against Blackburn" Petty but there it is.

Looks like Ashley's intent on blowing his ridiculously fortunate second chance.

The boy's a tit.

cuntish move followed by huge relief.

Born June '71 so I'll count it as the end of the 70-71 season. We finished 12th in Division 1. Shepherdesque tbh.

Yep, it was a bit sad tbf.

He's got a point IMO!

They choose to go.

You what? SO, if I have got this right, an avaerage nurse will have to work TEN YEARS now to make as much money as Rooney does in ONE WEEK, regardless of the latter's form and contribution to his club. That is so fucked up it is unreal. I personally find it increasingly difficult to hold anything but contempt for the football industry and a society that can let this happen. What's hard to understand there? a: It's easier to become a professional nurse than a professional footballer b: The ability to be miserable doesn't disappear when you get money c: I don't make the rules but that's how it is, I never said I liked it Money might not guarantee happiness but it certainly helps. And not having money is pretty well correlated with being unhappy I'd say. Your point was facile to say the least. Stop being a twat Renton.

Just that she was a pretty girl to say she was from Kent, but she should leave the football predictions to the blokes and I said I'd love say I hope you stay up but I dont and ended with a "bye x". Abused Grant too. Good, they thought they had turned the corner, they are more worried now than at any point this season. Hope its them, Wolves and Blackburn.

Is a good idea. They must know that a lot of supporters and current or potential members post on forums. Why dont they visit a few of them and state their case? why not take the public meetings they were having to forums? Of course they will be trolled, but surely thats what mods are for? Their public relation exercises are generally more or less on par with the club's ones tbh. Yep. I'm oot.

I don't like it but you can't argue with supply and demand. He gets paid that much because they think he's worth the investment. He's just top of the food chain. Even £10k a week is obscene if you're relating it to what a pensioner gets. It's more the fact he's basically been rewarded for spitting his dummy out by getting a huge increase. Not the first or last player to do it although the nature of it, with the press statements etc. and the profile of the player made it out of the ordinary and it does somehow seem worse when so many people are being told they don't have a job any more. The game never seemed further away from its supposed core support. I agree but you and I both know that's how it works sometimes. Being a c*nt seems to be something of an advantage when it comes to making money. I think the inequality in income makes people at the top end just as miserable as those at the bottom FWIW but I also don't see it changing any time soon.

Laughs aside he's bang on imo. The money earned in top level football is obscene given what they actually do (off and on the pitch). Nobody's forcing anyone to pay Rooney that much, nor would not paying him that much suddenly end unemployment. He's worked his arse off to be good enough, he's earned the right to be paid whatever he can get. However, I don't disagree that the imbalance in society needs to be addressed. The minimum wage has to be WAY higher than what you'd get on benefits and those benefits should have to be earned by doing things for the community.

Awesome. Only 3 points off ManU and Arse. :lol:

wonderful

Pretty much as I recall.....

* Cop taps on car window * Officer: "Wind the window down please sir" Gazza: "All right mate, how's it ganning!" Officer: "You were observed driving erratically and over the speed limit, sir. What's your explanation for this?" Gazza: "Ah howay man, you'll have to speak to me agent here." * Puts toy parrot up to window * Toy Parrot: "Fuck off pig! Fuck off pig!" Officer: "Step out of the car, now. And keep your hands where I can see them."
