Christmas Tree

It’s a good old heart and head situation. Your heart is all for Eddie and his way of doing things rather than some suits in the shadows. Your head realises that to be a big player in world football you need these world class suits in the shadows to have a club that excels regardless of who the manager is over time. Lots of “lesser” clubs seem to find great prospects from all over the world and we need to get much better at getting those rough diamonds in for our coaches to polish, both for first team and academy. That is our only way of ever sustaining a permanent challenge to join the elite. Im sure when Ashworth was first appointed Eddie did an interview where he stressed it was important for the club to have a solid structure in place regardless of who the manager was and that time has now come. Love Eddie to bits and hope feathers can be unruffled quickly and they can all pull in the same direction.

Also in a vape shop in the galleries yesterday and beneath the display of vapes was a glass shelf containing many coloured beads that a young woman was admiring. My daughter is quite into Taylor Swift and sharing friendship bands made of beads with other swiftees is quite a big thing. So I mozied over next to the young woman and bent down for a closer look, only to discover a sign saying “nipple rings”. She must have thought I was a right purve

Some pissy knickers in here tonight mind.

Seaburn man! Fucking clit pearcings clearly visible. Almost put me off my curry and chips. (Almost )

Still on the piss and haven’t heard it but guessing it’s pampers all round and I’m right yet again p

None, brought up better than that!

Possibly heading to the stak shortly to show off my dance moves. Unfortunately, my daughter is in there with fellow teachers but hey ho.

Damn, onto blue moon number 4 and crowded out so will have to wait til I get home to watch it.

Thurrock That’s where I had the misfortune to sleep walk and had to go to reception in my boxers

of course. My favourite place on a Friday. Love Blue Moon and a bit of people watching (sunshine fanny edition). Just a shame I forgot my shades

Place is awash with school teachers on the piss

Getting the Dutch courage in to face the rejection from Eddie (meh)

Should be very interesting. A straight out “not interested” would be nice, but why wait til now. Anything less and it’s squeaky bum time.

Nope, don’t agree with the long career necessarily. I think he will be under pressure to deliver this season and I don’t think Pif would think twice about changing manager if things don’t go well. If I was Howe, I would weigh that pressure against and the likelihood of good backing this transfer window against a pretty sure thing for the next 4-8 years with England.

So we can get out an interview with Eales and interview with Joe, but we can’t get Eddie to say “not interested”.

The red training gear is beautiful.

Pretty convinced Howe will take the job if offered. Not only does it get his family back down south and probably a big long contract, but I think he will feel duty bound to go for it. Patriotism and all that shit. Gutted if he goes but wouldn’t blame him. Would also love to see England playing his type of football.

And let’s not forget his crowning achievement, cutting the ribbons at the SCS midland stores grand openings!

Southgate gone

In my opinion, I would delete all of those images off Toontastic.

Must admit he pissed me off watching him as a lot of the time when we were under attack he would just stroll along.

Who dares wins and we didn’t. At least it’s only 12 more sleeps til Eddies boys are back in business.

So that’s the rat @thebrokendoll was after
