  1. If we have to rely on Jonas, Marveaux and fucking Obertan we are down. If we get Ben Arfa, Cabaye and any other fucker apart from Shola playing we'll be fine.

    Colo Gogo

    So we are left with getting 1m (total guess) for a player as important as him? I'd let him go on the proviso he makes up the difference in lost transfer fee.
  3. Add in the fact that two strikers left in the summer and our other "senior" strikers are Shola and Ranger you could almost say we deserve to be relegated for such crass management. I think even if we sign one decent striker this month we are still in deep shit.

    Demba Ba

    Just shows how winnable it is given a decent draw - ie not Man U away straight off.
  5. Sad to say but one thing Stevie and LM definitely have in common is a tendency to childish strops and bouts of name calling. Stevies strong opinions make him worth reading but the other side of that is that he doesn't half take the hump too easily. The flip side of the internets ability to bring people together from miles apart is that you can't settle shit like this like you do in the real world with a shrug and a pint.
  6. I actually love "switch off brain" films as a genre but there still should be something there at a basic level which I maintain this lacked. I can see the out of his time thing others have mentioned being interesting but still think the ground work should have been better.
  7. It's more the overall rating than the "lazy" thing which I think is just his style. I don't doubt his commitment I just thing he isn't good enough. Robson was a great manager but he had blind spots - of course everyone does and its convenient for me to say that Shola was one but I still think he's never been top notch and can consider himself damn lucky to have had the career he has. There have been loads of equally commited local lads over the years who've had to settle for a career at a lower level and he should have been another imo. Nothing defines the last ten years of mediocrity better than him still being close to first choice.
  8. I've said before its very telling that the only one to see through him was KK.
  9. I watched Captain America the other day as I downloaded The Avengers a couple of weeks ago and thought I should see all the base films before wacthing that - I've seen the rest. I don't think I've ever seen such a shallow film - I know modern super hero films do have an element of asking you to switch your brain off but fuck me this was taking the piss - no depth to characters or plot in any shape or form - this was summed up by hiim putting a gang together and in about 5 minutes destroying every secret Nazi base in Europe. They could at least have wheeled out a 95 year old lass at the end for a bit of closure but no (of course there may be something in The Avengers about her for all I know but still).
  10. Agree with this. Up until their second I thought it was a game which even though they looked a better team in some ways, I still thought we could win. It's the way we fell apart that's the most worrying thing. I understand it in terms of rock bottom confidence after recent games but it doesn't bode well. It makes me think back to how low we were under Allardyce and how long it took KK to instill belief. This time around we are relying on new and returning players rather than a new regime.
  11. Little kid lost against a good team - one or two mini-dribbles deosn't fool me.
  12. I said for the mackem game it was more that he's a homer but I've revised that to him hating us.
  13. I noticed on .com the other day that the on this day mentioned in in 82 I think we played Grimsby and Derby within 24 hours - I remember mild comments at the time but nothing like the shite thats spouted nowadays about 48/72/96 hours. Spolit bastards is the phrase that comes to mind - especially considering the relative squad sizes as well.
  14. I wish I could do an instant body transfer into KK so I could chin Burley and Stubbs - just fuck off with your shit-stirring twattery.
  15. Barcelona and New York - the latter is helped by those damn yanks being so friendly - a different planet from European cities in that respect. Rome is also great as there's a palpable sense of the history.
  16. This is the first time I've worked the days in between for about five or six years and I'd forgotten how relaxed and civilised it is compared with normal. Trains empty and almost nothing to do at work - in fact just solved my one issue of the day, sent an email about it and will now do fuck all until five.
  17. I could be wrong but I think you can buy what's called a "cordless phone". Of course you'd have to ensure you picked it up at the start of your lazing session.
  18. Anyone mentioned Evans was offside when Van Persie's free kick was taken?
  19. Badly hungover - went out with a load of people I used to work with last night but at least had the sense to take today off - off on Momday as well but in the rest of the time. Also had a chat with my ex-boss which might result in a new job so roll on the new year. I read this when I came in last night pissed and it made me well up thinking about my Dad - Cheers Tooj
  20. Sorry to hear that - my Dad died just before Xmas a few years ago now and its never been the same for me since. I hope you can turn that around and enjoy it.
  21. He was a typically pig ignorant yorkshireman - think Boycott with even less manners.
  22. Again you have to question the logic leap when a teacher hears gun fire and assumes its a nutter who's there to shoot kids - just that associatve link should wake them up. I feel really sorry for the kids and their families but as far as I'm concerned I have no sympathy for America as a conceptual entity or the population as a whole - they just don't question how fucked up they are.
