MLG enough with the Vids give us some details! What is his age, his position, his potential? Why is he in the Snior squad and not some of the other kids? Are he & McCarthy the next big thing now that Harry Reed is the new Paul Scholes?
-
Caulker was not "Snapped Up" by a big team when he went to Cardiff. Too many pundits including many on here said he was not quick enough or good enough. A season in a poor Cardiff team cannot have turned him into a Lovren/Fonte replacement, so I seriously hope this is a UI wind up.

I have no idea who is obsessing about Clyne as starting LB either. I was pointing out that we have cover in that position, Clyne, and that he is better as cover in that position than Danny Fox.

If the Forum had someone like a Pap around, they could find a good reason, such as this would then bring pressure onto Putin to force the Rebels to STFU and go home. The ACTUAL question is, why the Fark was a Civilian Aircraft flying over Ukraine when Notams existed and 2 planes have recently been shot down. I would NOT want to be a VP at Malaysian right now IF it was in order to keep costs down
-
Yeah but he's a helluva lot better than Danny Fox as cover. 30-15
-
We have one. Clyne. HTH
-
He must be rubbish. Taking until 5 mins to get his first for the club. Les Read Out FFS!

Ah, so that's why SRL & AL were in such a rush to get up to Liverpool. They wanted to watch The Open.

We have a class player who has 1) Had no pre-season with us in the time he has been here 2) Is burnt out by the money grabbing *&*^^% at FIFA having meaningless Summer Competitions and then the World Cup meaning he has had less than 6 weeks vacation in all of his time here 3) The ability to come off the bench and change a game 4) Has had a succession of major injuries 5) Has NOT kicked up a fuss to leave It's fun watching the rants about not having a deep enough squad or players of quality on the bench. It's also fun watching people show that they know zero about the the fact that the Human body does actually need to have a break from full-time training in order to avoid burn out, despite all the facts and statistics on the subject. I say get rid of Gaston on a free and stick Bliiy Sharp on the Bench. He's committed, he doesn't get Injured AND he runs around a lot. We don't need no stinking Gaston, Tadic will play every minute of every game at 110% of his ability.

Nick old chap. What a shame that the owners of poopey did not use 1% of 1% of the Planning, preparation and ground work on their Business Plan that you clearly put into your new operation. Still, I did note some similarities. Clients p1ssing on toilet seats springs to mind! Oh Pete. Where to start. (So I can finish in under 70 paragraphs just for Derry!) There is an amazing collective Insanity in the UK at the mention of "Dubai Businessman". Gregory House got it right You idiots seem to think that just because a Pint of Beer costs over 6 quid, everyone here is minted. The eyes glaze over and normal instincts just swoon away. Whether it is an Investor from Dubai or equally the chance for a SMB Brit Co to get a Sales Order or Contract from over here. There are PLENTY of professionals here Lawyers, Accountants, Consultants that could help warn people but oh no, all guns blazing straight to ruin. Well, the only people who make money here are Liars and Cheats. Everyone else has to go eat at Ravi's and shop at the Clothing section of Carrefour. Intrinsic to this pattern are the fundamental lack of things you lot take for granted - Consumer Protection Legislation, Social Awareness (let alone services), and in any business outside a Free Trade Zone? A complete lack of ANY need to file ANY Audited Accounts. "I am zillionaire from Dubai" "OMG we are saved. can you prove it?" "Yes I have Photoshop" "OMG you own Photshop"....etc etc etc Then add in the fact that nobody EVER pays for anything - client ONLY takes 180 days credit? consider yourself lucky. It wasn't just Salisbury & The Skates, remember the demise of Saint Lee & that Sexual disease StD? Their "buyer" didn't even have a Trade Licence. How can people NOT check those basic facts out? Oh yes, no Agencies of that nature exist here. Hell even LUFC got screwed over. People here KNOW everyone is crooked and everyone lies. You Brits just ASSUME everyone plays fair. Still, us normal peeps have clubbed together and are now seeking investment for our new Project. In fact we are inviting Pcfc to relocate as our Lead Tenant. The offer to buy them out will be in the post very shortly. Wayne Rooney has already signed up for a Condo We give you THE latest Holiday Destination..

"Kin hell, I go away on my hols for 4 weeks to avoid Ramadan & meet the Dubai Massive invasion of Glasto & you lot team up & give me a bashing. FFS of COURSE I frequent Rock Bottom. And know the Management very well. They all know their job is to stop the place being infested by the Vermin The same other half who has now converted half of Krakow into Polski Saints on FB. FFS unlike the Nutjobs they've already created a range of Babywear which includes the image of the Baby urinating on the poopey shirt. (Will try & dig up the picture tomorrow. Trying to see if the new Board will stock them at the Megastore)

Garth Brooks is on the comeback trail apparently. At least Brits have heard of him Was thinking earlier this week. After Dolly, who could they get to follow her for the 4pm Sunday Legend slot? -
It makes complete sense IF PK is wanting to bring in Clasie

Let's see how pre-season goes. After the reviews that Jack Stephens got from Swindon fans it is quite possible that he & Turnbull may have matured more and be ready to fill the back-up roles. Let's face it, Chambers came from nowhere to start the first game last season. Yoof is the way, perhaps they will now be ready for the bench and occassional outings as 4th & 5th choice CB's.

Near Miss at Barcelona Airport. Officially No Problemo !
dubai_phil replied to Wurzel's topic in The Lounge
What REALLY ****es meoff about those situations is that when you go around the bloody cabin crew ALWAYS refuse to serve you a stiff Brandy to calm you down. even when you've blagged an upgrade. I assume EoA was on his afternoon job at Barca that day. Looks like one of his after a night out with the Dubai Massive -

You do know that Fatboy was there this year Swanny? Headliners Abba, Genesis with Peter Gabriel & Kate Bush....... Oh and some Metal support bands & maybe Kiss, Marky Ramone....... -
Yep. totally have to agree with this as his time out on loan proved............ Oh

Professional Sportsmen also need to EARN respect. AL threw that out of the window. Luke Shaw showed how to STFU & just go. AL was an idiot from the moment he boasted about leaving on 29th March in Bournemouth. IMHO Good luck to Luke, God Bless SRL & up yours Lallana

The Official Unofficial Glastonbury 2014 thread.
dubai_phil replied to swannymere's topic in The Arts
Saw Kasabian live at Glasto about 4 years ago. They were awful. Pretentious "look at us we are great" arrogant krap. Maybe they mellowed out but so glad we skipped them.... Week after Glast we were in Krakow visiting Mrs D_P's family & a Dentist (Trust me gang she (The Dentist) was great and half the price of UK & 3 Grand cheaper than in Dubai) Anyways, we walk in the big Mall in Krakow and they are playing..... Dolly Parton's greatest hits. Seems she had an impact beyond Dog Adoption..... Met a drunk bloke (as you do) in a bar who spotted our wristbands (didn't take them off until we got home last night so we didn't lose them) - he was all OMG you were at Glasto, did you see Dolly? Was she really better than Metallica & Arcade Fire? Now THAT was tough question... We just redirected him to our fav - Don Cavalli (You had to be there, it involved Real Ale, Steaming Crotches & Passive Smoking.....) -
Happy Birthday Art. Can't send you a cake it's too far, late in the day & Ramadan so don't go all Toure on us

Do agree with much of what he says. Think we have stayed remarkably positive as fans tbh in the midst of so many changes.

TOWIE does TdF. Watched it just outside Epping yesterday. Great fun & atmosphere & not 7 deep. Lol at Essexman out there with his sofa & bubbly

Back in the day I posted my opinions on the Clattenburg thread like many others. Back in March at the Dubai World Cup Horse Race after a bucket of booze I found myself randomly standing next to Clattenburg in the bathroom. I let fly with a barrage of expletives at him. On reflection at that time I was not overly impressed with myself for that. Now? I feel like a complete ***t. So, Dear Mr Clattenburg, for what little it is worth, I apologise whole heartedly and sincerely. I was an idiot. You were right. Adam? Don't bother coming back for nights out in Bompey.
