CB Fry

And of course Villa sneak it out while an England match is on ITV. What a club.

We won't let his contract run down is what I am saying. One of the options in the negotiation would be to let him go if we can't resolve his contract. It wouldn't be "dishonourable" or be "giving him grief" if he says he doesn't want to commit to the club beyond next season and we pay up his contract, ie honouring it in full. Much the same with players, we don't want anyone with an eye on the exit for an entire season, and nothing suggests we won't treat Koeman in exactly the same way. If he doesn't want to give the players and the club the security that he is intending to stay longer, then it is in the clubs better interests to replace him with someone that does. Handshake, no hard feelings. We've had an astonishing run of brilliant managerial appointments since Pardew and one day we will employ a dud, but lets think we are capable of getting someone else in who can be as good. Koeman isn't going to be our manager forever, so you might as well start getting used to it. However, I have said several times that I think he will stay, but he will sign a rolling contract and more than likely go at the end of next summer anyway. But we will not drift into next season and week after week after week of contract questions at press conferences. Won't happen.

WHAT ALL ONE BILLION OF THEM etc etc etc

If we have all finished laughing at SOG then googling Belgium False Flag chucks up some absolute solid gold guff, the kind of which former legendary contributors of this parish are currently masterbating over, while accusing other people of being gullible. Research thus far - "look at that fake baby ato themail airport" with lots of self assured YouTube comments from virgins saying "babies wouldn't move like that". Also something about the number 322 (22nd March in, er, US date format. Geddit?) which is (obviously) a number linked to the illuminati or lizards or something. Cast iron proof. There's other stuff - the fact that they hit near to the EU buildings is evidence of conspiracy rather than, well, evidence that the terrorists were targeting a seat of power. Like, obviously, sheeple. Then I stopped reading as it made me feel depressed. There are some utter dins out there, and some make SOG look like Henry Kissinger.

Very happy with a local company. Much prefer that to a gambling company. Have people not seen the Ladbrokes adverts? Cretins.

The club will not let that happen.

I think that is part of it. And that's not necessarily bad - If we said nothing to the press then plenty on here would interpret that as the club not trying/dithering/doing nothing etc etc. Clearly we will treat Koeman like we did Clyne and the rest (and Victor this summer). No one is going into the final year if their contract. Sign, or go. Koeman could go either way - if he gets us to sixth then he may get a big offer but in all honesty I don't really know who he would get a job offer from that is "elite". The top six here are settled or won't go for him, and the other big European giants? Can't see it. Obviously Barcelona is the exception but that doesn't look likely this summer. Dutch national job is the other realistic opportunity but unlikely to be on the cards this summer. He might just want a change and to pootle off to a second tier CL/Europa club, and if he does good luck. I still think as I said before that he will sign an extension but he will only do the three seasons and then go. Likely a nice rolling contract.

So SOG is falling over himself to emphasise how much of a Christian Hitler is, but seems to get awfully upset when anyone dares to suggest that Islamic terrorists are even remotely Islamic at all. Perplexing stuff.

No evidence to back that up - he couldn't win L1 with Reading and with Reading and WHU only managed the play offs in the division above - with West Ham especially he stuttered and stammered through two Championship seasons with one of, if not the, biggest club in the division. And his record since then is littered with hot and cold runs of form, verging on triumph (Newcastle 5th) and disaster (Charlton rock bottom of Championship). His last few seasons have been hot and cold and it's been a common theme through his career. I like Pards and he would have got us out of L1 but he would have been as likely to scrape us through the play offs as win the league, something he has never achieved anywhere.

Well, there's Nazi gold and there's forum gold. SOG delivers, yet again.

No one thinks this. No one has said anything like this on this thread. No one. At all. You're a mentalist, a fantasist, or more likely, just full of it.

I should have said you and others. In fairness it was Chapel End and SOG doing most of the second world war references. And Chapel End again on the odd Mexico stuff too. Fair cop. Apologies. Happily stand by my points just with a slightly wider net of dinlows.

Why have you put genocide in quotation marks? Personally I think it is okay to make remarks addressed at certain people on this thread - hello you - whose reaction to multiple atrocities carried out by Islamic extremist terrorists is to scuttle off to the four corners of the Internet desperately trawling for horrible things Christians have done, and end up blathering about Bosnian genocide, the second world war (both sides), Mexican drug cartels and Brevik, as if this dissapates the Islamic nature of these atrocities and you can fluff it all up as us all being the same after all. Except Christians are, like, probably worse when you think about it and stuff. The events in Lahore at dispicable and proof again of what is becoming the defining issues if our age. It's multinational, multi-facted and has no obvious resolution but is unequivocally linked to a religious imperialism/zealotry and is unique in its scale, breadth and impact. But not for you though. Get yourself back on Google and starting finding more evidence that British soldiers sang church hymns before they climbed in their Lancasters and bombed Dresden. Just the same. Just the same. Damed Christians.

My money is on the Mexicans.

And still using the death of thousands of people to try and smug it up on a football forum. Terrorism is different to state genocide. Keep creating arguments in your head, won't you.

By resources you mean they would need to be running the countries. They're not, they won't be, it isn't genocide, it isn't comparable to Srebrencia.

What happened in Brussels was not genocide. Or Paris. Or London.

You can compare them if you like, but they're not comparable. Srebrenica was state-controlled and directed genocide, the event in the title of this thread and the subsequent connected events is not that, in any way whatsoever. If there is evidence, reporting, official statements or videos from IS that the events in the title of this thread and the subsequent related events are directly connected to those events in the balkans during mid nineties then please do put them up here. Otherwise you are just participating in ham-fisted and utterly contemptible meaningless comparisons. Just gratuitous ticking off a "Hey look, this is, like, Christian terrorism" on your Christian Terrorism bingo card. Several thousand Muslims did not die so you could smug it up on a football forum. Beneath contempt.

What has happened in Brussels, London and Paris and all those other places was not a fu cking genocide. To me that is pretty obvious. Not to you though. Comparing it to Srebrenica is contemptible.

How on earth is the horrific genocide at Srebanica remotely comparable to people walking into Concert Halls, Metro Stations and Airports machine gunning/nail bombing people. Even using it in this context is pretty effing contemptible on your part. It's a common theme on this thread of course, the desperate trawling of history for "Christian Terrorism" but fail to see how it is anything other that utterly facile and pointless whataboutery signifying absolutely nothing. I'm sure some bright spark on here will be back to that world famous "religious" war World War Two any post now. Apparently some British Soldiers in Ypres had Bibles, you know. Just like them lads from Leeds on 7/7. Indistinguishable. Just the same. All them religions, eh? What are they like?

Our stadium is expandable. Not sure what proof you want but it was said at the time we opened it/built it 15 odd years ago.

Even you can't be thick enough to think that anyone on this thread thinks or even suggests that all Muslims are terrorists. I know you love it, because it gives you the fish-in-a--barrel easy win for you to grandstand against an entirely fictional standpoint but for Allah's sake give it a flamin' rest. So this is it. Here's your recognition. Have a fu cking medal. Not all Muslims are terrorists. Well done. Jolly well done. What insight. What a brave position to take against all of no one that thinks that on here. So brave. You're so much more gooderer and superior to everyone else it's untrue. I've let the PM know and he's sending a car round in the morning. Your groundbreaking insight is wasted on this football forum when there are far knottier geopolitical challenges for you take on. Get out there and change minds.

I'm glad you asked that. Odd.

What was wrong with what he said? The only way he is going to manage in the top flight again is if he gets a club promoted to it. No existing Prem club is going to appoint him. He's mid table League One. Not sure why you think that is in any way strange - there's loads of managers like that - Mick Mccarthy say, or Malkay McKay or Tony Mowbray etc.

Except you did mean it. I don't need to dig the thread up but you were getting jolly upset at anyone saying we were too good to go down, and backed that up with two steaming piles of horses hit, one about how Newcastle can definitely finish above us because you thought we might only win one more game (this was January FFS) and another about how 40 points won't be enough this season, and I believe you went to 42 not being enough. You said that sh ite, and looked like a plum then. And you now blathering that how dare anyone say we can't finish fourth makes that rant look even more pathetic. Nice try. Nice try.
