Graffito

A variant of the much more common affliction of cranium posterium.

The missing link.

I remember the result and the fences being ripped up but little of the match. The fences were very flimsy. Coincidentally a couple of articles in the Observer today about the "golden age" of football in the seventies. http://www.theguardian.com/football/2014/aug/10/were-seventies-footballs-golden-age-of-innocence-book http://www.theguardian.com/football/2014/aug/10/footballs-glory-days-in-pictures

‘When I use a word,’ Humpty Dumpty said, in rather a scornful tone, ‘it means just what I choose it to mean — neither more nor less.’ ‘The question is,’ said Alice, ‘whether you can make words mean so many different things.’ ‘The question is,’ said Humpty Dumpty, ‘which is to be master — that’s all.’ Alice was too much puzzled to say anything; so after a minute Humpty Dumpty began again. ‘They’ve a temper, some of them — particularly verbs: they’re the proudest — adjectives you can do anything with, but not verbs — however, I can manage the whole lot of them! Impenetrability! That’s what I say!’ ‘Would you tell me please,’ said Alice, ‘what that means?’ ‘Now you talk like a reasonable child,’ said Humpty Dumpty, looking very much pleased. ‘I meant by “impenetrability” that we’ve had enough of that subject, and it would be just as well if you’d mention what you mean to do next, as I suppose you don’t mean to stop here all the rest of your life.’

Careful with the two bob moniker. It's a term of abuse where I live.

Gab artists. Lounge lizards. You could be describing posters on football forums.

I didn't go but I believe Ralph may have been there.

“One of the big things was to stop the investments from Katharina,” Krueger says. “When she sees 30,000 people having pleasure watching the team perform it makes her happy in the memory of why her father [Markus] invested in the first place. "You can see her father is alive in this building for her. The club is not for sale.” Positive. She has an emotional attachment to the club. So do I. Stability.

Weight of expectation which is off the scale compared with what he's experienced before. It does strange things to people. It would have been better for Lambert if Liverpool had signed a Suarez replacement and he could have eased himself into contention without the same pressure.

The blogs are very informative. Thank you for posting the link.

I bet that was too good to resist. I'd have done the same.

That's just plain silly. Don't even know why I'm bothering to rep

I'm staggered and not a little impressed (even) at the knowledge some posters have of other teams players. I mean, I saw Villa a bit on MoTD and home and away live in the league against Saints, and was quite impressed with Betrand, but apparently he was actually crap at Villa. What do I know. Perhaps I should trade the ST for a Sky bundle and get some proper opinions.

You get the picture though.

Quality not price. What's your assessment?

It's a strange one but yes even Heineken barrels. Thanks for insights to Dutch football by the way.

Couldn't care less what the OS does. Ours like all the others are propaganda.

Agree. It's about quality rather than price.

Fair chance he hit the Pernod last night and didn't make it.

PL experience as well, unlike other signings and several that are linked.

Didn't see much of Bertrand last season but I recall being quite impressed with his performance against us in the draw at Villa Park last season. Clyne didn't get forward much at all as I remember. He's no Shaw but I'm happy to give him a chance. Only right and proper if he's on our side.

No. It's reminiscent of old Odemwinky who jumped the gun and drove down to Loftus Rd but the transfer never happened.

It seems the Board thinks we are truffles. Getting more confused by the minute.

If he puts in a transfer request will the Board turn it down?

Is it a phone in?
