  1. Please god no. The most annoying thing about this whole run is all this “it’s coming home” pony. The number of people, particularly dopey birds, who have never discussed football or shown a passing interest that are now spouting this balls on my timeline or in person is doing my ****ing head in. People I’ve never discussed football with or ever heard them mention football are now mad for it. My staff know that I follow Saints week in week out and I’ve had conversations with about half a dozen with them about football, all of a sudden they’re all mad keen football fans asking me if “it’s coming home”. Pretty soon my response will be “I don’t know, but say it again and you’ll be going home, ****ing fired”. Half wits. Talk about a bloody great bandwagon Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  2. Lolvren got absolutely murdered by Harry Kane and had to be substituted before half time last season. More of the same please.
  3. Come on Russia Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  4. Not like the EU they’re not. Which other trading bloc has free movement, ever closer union, a currency, flag, and parliament. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  5. Don’t be so ridiculous, there’s literally hundreds of countries that aren’t in a political union , and they get along perfectly well. You can argue that it’s better to be in a union, but to say it doesn’t work unless you’re in one is clearly pony. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  6. I was totally against it, but having seen it in action I'm all for it. You only had to look at the South Korean goal to acknowledge its merits. If it stops howlers like Watford away, or Wembley and doesn't take too much time, I'm all for it. My fear is that managers, players and supporters will demand perfection, and that will undermine the whole thing. The Ramos incident at the end of the Spanish game springs to mind. It should be made clear to everyone , its incidents where 10 out of 10 refs would have given it, not 7 or 8 out 10. I worry that gradually more and more 8/10 decisions will be overturned, then it'll become 7/10, then finally 6/10. Let's get rid of the absolute howlers, sort out off the ball stuff and deal with facts , that's all it should do imo . Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  7. Once Brexit is over big business can start on their next project, stopping Corbyn getting into number 10. They’ll be threats of job loses, predictions regarding a run on the pound and threats of high wage earners moving abroad. I’m sure big business leaders will be writing letters to The Times and urging us vote Tory. Looking forward to the lefties trying to square the circle, do we ignore these warnings or vote accordingly. For consistency I’m sure the Remainers will be taking these as gospel ,and all voting Tory. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

  9. You realise it’s harder to get in their first team, then say Salzburg’s. You know that? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  10. As you well know I actually said “if you don’t get to the final, you might as well go home with the Germans”. Do you understand that underachievement is measured against what you should achieve as opposed to what you did achieve. We should have won ‘96 with the players we had, the average opposition and the home advantage, that doesn’t mean not winning the tournament is underachieving every time. Liverpool of Bob Paisley would think losing a European cup final as underachieving, doesn’t mean Klopp’s mob underachieved last season does it? As average as this lot are they should be good enough to get to the final. We’re the highest ranking side left in our half of the draw. It’ll be embarrassing if a load of soppy arses get all emotional and soft like they did in 90 & 96 if we get knocked out in the semi final. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  11. And then Russia or Croatia as opposed to France Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  12. Is there anyone still saying we should have gone all out against Belgium. Sweden or Brazil, let me think. Which one do we want? When I I’ve got a bit of time I’ll look back through some posts and see who the idiots were Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  13. Sweden & Switzerland are dog shi t. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  14. My Leicester supporting mate reckons they’re interested in Grealish as well. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  15. He’ll be moaning about their Kamikaze defending for the Belgian winner next. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  16. B&Q decent if you’re buying off the shelf, their delivery service is woeful and their fitters hit & miss. Although I believe they’re knocking their home fit service on the head. Wren make you feel important, great customer service initially and you’ll save time or money on the fitting as the units come already assembled. Have seen poor reports but never had an issue myself. My brother in law has a kitchen fitting business and swears by Howdens, but I believe they’re Trade only. Personally I’ve found B & Q cheapest, but they don’t really have sales anymore. You can play them off against Wren but you need to be careful you’re comparing like for like. We had a great lady do our design, and had no problems with delivery as I made sure the one we bought was in store for me to take away then and there. One tip my Brother in law gave me was buy expensive handles as it makes even the cheapest kitchen look great. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  17. Fair play to the Irish, if their tax rates encourage business to base themselves there, what’s wrong with that? We should be doing exactly the same thing. Although I can’t help thinking the lefties defending the Irish, would be up in arms if we did so. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  18. Dealt a cruel cruel blow, but what class. This is a tweet from a FIFA coordinator Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

  21. He just wants May to stick to her Mansion house speech and implement Tory manifesto pledges. It is a strange world when people claim that it’s extreme or bullying to demand that the PM sticks to her word, and also sticks to the manifesto on which her MP’s were elected.

  22. This is where his problem lies imo, when playing on the left he always checks back onto his right. I think Liverpool in the away semi final is the only time I can remember him actually going past someone on the outside left. He’s got to be the easiest player to defend against as he favours his right side every time, this also slows the game down a touch. I know playing on the opposite side is the modern way, particularly if you’ve got flying full backs that’ll overlap, but you must have a threat of going outside, even if it’s only 2 or 3 times out of 10. He played a bit better in one game when as you say he swapped with Tadic, went down the right and crossed. But if he played there every week, he’d soon be sussed out and they’d show him inside. Until he starts to possess more of a threat on his left side (whether from the right or left) I fear he’s going to be as frustrating as ever. Some top quality players have got away with being so one sided, he’s not good enough to be able to. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  23. Interesting factsI read this morning. Not one player left in the tournament has played in a World Cup final before. And out of the last 6 finalists only France are left in. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  24. If you attempt to play the mall legally and a penalty is awarded , you haven't prevented a goal scoring opportunity as they still have one from the spot. Deliberate handball is not attempting to play the ball legally, so is still a red. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
