  1. I find it amusing when soft arsed lefties make things up. Working to a budget set by his employer is living within your means.
  2. I’m surprised Ronald Koeman didn’t move Forster on, he must have realised he’d be shite 6 years later.
  3. We’re still in the EU?
  4. No surprise to see Puel still getting blamed for decisions despite 3 subsequent managers and Ralph being here 2.5 seasons. When are some posters going to make the first team manager accountable. When he’s been here 3 years, 4 years, 5 years?
  5. Ralph will have a budget & it’s up to him to manage within that budget. If he needs to shift people out to generate more money for signings or the wages of loan players, then that’s what he needs to do. You know, manage the squad, like countless previous managers have done. Maybe had he not persisted with this ridiculous rotation pony we may have been able to move one of them on. He’s been in charge for 2.5 years now, the goalkeeping fiasco hasn’t been suddenly dropped on him, he’s been a part of it.
  6. Watched a good film on Prime last night. About a grumpy old bloke who is trying to kill himself. “A Man Called Ove”, for a Swedish film it lacks decent chicks, but I found it funny. Bit soppy at the end, but better than most so called comedies.
  7. It’s about priorities. I don’t believe for one minute getting another keeper in will mean “unaffordable debt”. Get someone in on loan, wheel & deal, it’s called management. No doubt the Ralph apologists will give him a pass, but if we end up with one of these 2 as our number 1, it’s down to him. The choices he makes will determine who is in nets for us this season, the buck stops with him. Personally, I believe its probably the easiest position to get a short term fix in. If he doesn’t it can only mean he’s happy with our options and he must carry the can if they continue to underperform
  8. Brian Clough reckoned a decent keeper saved you 12 points a season. We’ve got a pretty weak squad, but both keepers are piss poor. The buck stops with the manager, he needs to get someone in. I thought this stupid rotation thing was to decide which one to ditch, but here we are a month away from the start and we’ve still got both of the planks. He needs to man up and tell the powers that be he needs someone else in nets. It stinks of weak yes man management IMO.
  9. Neither are good enough to be number 1. If Ralph doesn’t get someone else in then he needs sectioning. You can’t tell me we couldn’t pick up a half decent keeper for a reasonable amount, even if it’s on loan or an oldie.
  10. Makes more sense than Soggy’s suggestions
  11. I reckon instead of penalties they should give it to the nicest team. Which team committed less fouls, did the most for charity, & didn’t swear or spit during game. Extra points could be added for the tidiest dressing room, most sustainable form of transport to the ground & diversity within the group.
  12. What a straw man. Who on Earth thinks we’ll have one less in the squad if Ings goes. Nobody I’ve read. The issue is a replacement being worse than Ings, therefore weakening an already poor squad.
  13. What a load of old pony. Penalties are a clear & decisive way to end it. Not somebodies opinion or ridiculous stats to prove who “tried hardest”. So what if somebody misses the penalty, if they miss one to draw level in the 4th minute of injury time, it’ll count. What’s the difference? Somebody gets upset, didums. You’ll be banning putting on the 18th next in case some poor little darling misses a crucial putt.
  14. Nice dig? Childish , if you ask me. Big club, great stadium, bigger wages, I don’t reckon any of our players would turn them down.
  15. You can’t blame him, if he gets off to a poor start he’ll be toast after the way last season finished. If I were him, I’d want Ings next season regardless of whether it helps our budget or not. If Ings goes this summer, chances are Ralph will be following by the Jan window, P45 in hand.
  16. Snap dragon got a call this morning. She can come back to work as she’s doubled jabbed & has a negative PCR. They’re spending a fortune on bank staff and incentives to do ot, so they’re now calling in every single member of staff who is self isolating to get them back in. Clearly it’s not going to be long before it’s going to apply to the general public as well as NHS staff. Sensible move IMO.
  17. Lol. I got an email this evening, inviting me to join the Boris scheme. I reckon they’re sending them out in bulk to cover his arse.
  18. So what did you do about these 2 examples? Who said your name would not look right, you put speech marks around the quote, so I presume it was word for word. Who said it, and which company received 2 applications exactly the same (and didn’t realise), only offering a job to your English persona. That could well be illegal, so I presume you took it further. A company doing that deserves naming and shaming, who are they? As for the second example. I presume you reported the guy. As an employer, anyone talking about sun tans in relation to ethnic minorities who worked for me ,would be thrown out of the organisation. I refuse to believe there’s any companies that would accept behaviour of this nature in this day and age. Did you report the guy and was he sacked?
  19. As somebody who is in the middle of a 10 day quarantine, who has been double jabbed & got a negative test back Friday, it’s a fucking piss take if the people imposing this bypass the requirement. It’ll make me think twice if it happens again.
  20. Bob the Builder theme tune and Burger buns. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9798849/Man-gets-racial-hatred-police-record-whistling-Bob-Builder-theme-tune.html
  21. How do you know they’re white? Or even blokes? You’re just feeding your prejudice. Apart from one chick, nobody has posted their gender on the last few pages. On to your point. Is it only black people that are allowed to define what is and isn’t racist. It appears to me that, in your eyes, white people can provide they agree with you, an old white bloke.
  22. What’s plain site, are they all construction workers? If you’re going to accuse others of needing education it’s probably a good idea to use plain sight.
  23. My son is single jabbed and he’s just tested positive. He’s just got a sniffle and the occasional cough. 6 of them booked a table to watch the semi final and final of euros and out of the 6, 4 of them have tested positive. Fucking annoying he’s between houses and moved back in with us for a few days, so me & snap dragon are now having to self isolate. The snap dragons hospital is starting to grind to a halt with so many staff having to self isolate despite their test being negative.
  24. Are we allowed to boo hypocrites? You posted earlier this week that there was hypocrisy involved in the gesture.
  25. She’s the wrong type of minority. There’s a hierarchy of victimhood and Tories from an ethnic minority background are right at the bottom, just below the Jews.
