So despite the racist abuse at grounds in this country declining, we have a worse racism problem than Spain where they chant like monkeys at black players? Riiiiight....

Exactly my thoughts on this too. Was it LuaLua who faced death threats when he didn't play for his country? Or am I thinking of somebody else? Either way this is a tragedy. RIP. EDIT: just read the article properly. Should tell his country where to stick their international duty IMO.

The creme de la creme of bad taste jokes: Two men are in a pub. "I could have sex with any woman in this room if I wanted to" says the first. "Really?" says his friend. "How come?" "I'm a rapist".

From skysports: Newcastle United chairman Freddy Shepherd has hinted that he will consider installing a foreign manager at St James' Park. A dire run of form prompted Shepherd to take action and dismiss Graeme Souness last week, with Glenn Roeder placed in temporary control of team affairs. Despite masterminding a win over Portsmouth in his first game at the helm, Roeder has no plans to take the reins full time. Shepherd has 12 weeks to make an appointment, as Roeder does not have the required coaching badges to take on the position, and the Magpies supremo is likely to take his time. A host of managers have been linked with the position, including Sam Allardyce, Steve Bruce, Alan Curbishley and Kevin Keegan. England coach Sven Goran Eriksson's name has been thrown into the frame, as has that of PSV Eindhoven and Australia manager Guus Hiddink - and Shepherd has left the door ajar for a foreign appointment. He told the Sunday Mirror: "In the past, I have expressed a preference for a British manager but I feel that at this difficult time, we have to look at every option open to us. "That means we will be looking at every available candidate, no matter which country they coach or manage in. "It is a World Cup year and that could throw up one or two interesting possibilities." Despite needing to bring in a replacement in 12 weeks, Shepherd may opt for a short-term fix prior to swooping in the summer. "Ideally, I would like to have the managerial situation sorted out sooner rather than later, but if waiting until after the World Cup led to getting the right man, then I would be prepared to bide my time."

Sorry, it was a cross-board reference. His name has been branded on both here and N-O for about a year now, and I can't understand why. How about Deschamps? 88713[/snapback] Apart from manage in France, what's he ever done?

It's a shame he's not more consistent like you HTL. You are, always have been and I always will be a miserable moaner with no sense of humour.

Would cost over £6m in compensation to get Bruce, so it's not gonna happen. Same with Allardyce, so I've no idea why he's such a favourite for it. 88589[/snapback] You've just made my day.

Whilst he is undeniably a horrible racist cunt, he wasn't actually suggesting that people go out and harm Muslims, like Hamza said about non-muslims. Still would have been nice to see the prick behind bars though.

The worrying thing about all this is that our 'unreasonable expectations' may put off good managers from applying for the job leaving us with Steve Fucking Bruce, or some other fuckwit.

Ideally Hitzfeld but I'd be happy with Big Sam.

Breast feeding has many, many advantages over bottle feeding, such as mother-baby bonding and improving the baby's immunity from disease. But beyond a certain age it's just wrong. What I thought was particularly funny about that programme was the dads - clearly pissed off at what was going on but didn't want to say anything.

That's two more than most on here, you filthy swines.

You better ask Smooth Operator, he's the authority on bumlove around here.

That's your day ruined then.

Puddle Jumper, Not The Marrying Kind, Bad Thrower, Nicely Poised, Good With Colours, Yorkie Bar etc = Smooth Operator.

Eh? I thought he was your main competition to Souness's affections? 88001[/snapback] Souness is history. Deano's the man for me. 88015[/snapback] Maneater tbh.

Allardyce would be my choice.

Is that including his alleged £100,000 a week wages?

In Viz they've started making up sexual practices in the profaniasaurus, such as boiling your eggs and the walrus. A prize for anyone who can accurately describe them!

Revolver should be nailed on for worst film.

I understood the first time. My point was you are much more likely to DIE in a car crash, not just be involved in one.

Not sure I follow. It's a fact you're more likely to drive on the way to the airport than on the flight itself (especially in some foreign countries), but that doesn't help people who have developed phobias much, unfortunately, no matter how much you tell yourself it. 86035[/snapback] I don't think I'd ever drive on the flight myself tbh Anyway, the point I'm making is that if you're in a car crash, you're statistically more likely to survive than if you were in a plane crash. 86037[/snapback] Car crashes are so much more common that you are more likely to die in one of them than in a plane crash anyway, so it's not a misleading statistic as some people think.

House is fucking ridiculous, it's the worst medicine based TV prog I've ever seen. And I include Holby City in that.
