I thought the idea of an auction was to start low? No one is going to match that sort of crazy money for trousers' account! π -
Crumbs! I thought I'd joined a forum, only to find out it was a Manchurian Candidate programme! Fortunately, my sleeper activation phrase is "And Pompey are welcomed back to the Premier League." So, I'm quite safe. π

Every time Russia mention nukes BBC radio 4 spend at least the next day obsessing about it, asking everyone on any programme breathlessly about escalation. Utterly tiresome lot.

Oh heck. I've just recently listened to all yes minister audios. Only a matter of time before I'm signing up to swivel-eyed groups. Or not. Idiots. π -

Kayne Ramsay out for the season after getting a nasty head injury https://www.dailyecho.co.uk/sport/23336173.former-southampton-fc-defender-issues-update-horror-face-injury/ Wishing him a full and speedy recovery.

I thought Klopp's post match interview was pretty open (like his defence). Well beyond the inanities being asked. Maybe he's just at that stage with their season now. Torn between wanting British clubs to do well, and the fun of watching Liverpool fail.

If it was, I'm a bit disappointed I didn't get a "Oh nice...lovely." in response to one of my posts. Missed chance there. If it was him, I'd have expected more of a stats approach to Luton's success. And posts that should have stopped after a sentence, going on for a page. And massive flame wars. Pre match conference: Nathan, you look tired today. Is your position weighing on your mind? No. I was up 'til 3, putting that Saintweb lot in their place. Some are saying your online posts launch attacks on others. No, they are front footed, aggressive posts. Pound for pound, my saintsweb posts are top in quality and banter of any poster across Europe. But not Canada, Australia or Singapore, to name 3 others... oh, he's stormed off... π

I picked it up as him telling the players, they'd have to fight to stay in his plans. Somewhere around the same time as him wanting to have a core group of starters. It'll be a tough run in. It's one thing to motivate players and another to categorically tell them they aren't wanted. They will all be aware that, regardless of what happens, we've got a large squad. There's a fight to get minutes. Or should be.

Sometimes 6 minutes is more than enough for you to know your world cup star just won't give you the outcomes in your Luton tactic. π

Sheets and coats come in so many different patterns and colours. I embrace the additional chapters, where the main characters, of many different shapes and sizes, go shopping for clothing and bed linen. It's what the authors would have wanted. π -
I thought that Lowe didn't want to pay marginally more for De Pedro. So, we got a Neil McCann who hadn't hit his his early promise by a few years. I remember being really disappointed we didn't get him, thinking we'd penny pinched and got a much worse player. I'd have seen him playing for sociedad, if only in passing, so must have thought he'd be okay. Looking back, I've no idea if it was Sociedad who raised the price, or how well he'd have done. Did he not get a bad injury? Career nosedived after joining Blackburn. Hope it wasn't the Le Tiss DVD that ended up on a hard drive somewhere. π

It did look like they were thinking of Selles longer term. He says he's been ready for quite some time, so the extra 18 months won't have made a difference as far as he's concerned. I'm a little wary of someone keen on a job being part of two regimes that haven't worked. Unlike yourself, I do think there's a bit of tarring if you've been part of it. In Sellers' favour, he wasn't brought in by either one, and can only do so much.

It is, but GIFs of people eating cake looked a bit random. If you thought that was mental and messy, what's "grips my shit" . No GIFs please. π
