  1. This is it for me. I don’t really care how talented he is in France, Spain, Switzerland or wherever, he may just as well be talented at Basketball. Until we move the club and play in a league he’s talented in, he’s pretty much a waste of time for us. I’m willing to give anyone a second chance, but if you’re not good enough you’re not good enough. Nothing I’ve seen from him and nothing I’ve seen in Hughes coaching career ( in terms of developing Mavericks ala Bally with Matt), makes me think he’ll come good. If he does I’ll be the first to put my hands up and say I was wrong. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  2. God, what a wet bunch of supporters we’ve got. The bloke refused to warm up when we were absolutely desperate and you’re still all gooey eyed over him. Blokes a complete and utter waste of space, he had a run of starts after the WBA game & did **** all. Stop making excuses for the show pony. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  3. Pony, he missed loads of sitters for Utd. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  4. God, some of you are complete ****ing idiots. Great result, we now have Columbia, Switzerland or Sweden standing before us and a semi final. Who wouldn’t have taken that beforehand? I want us to win it so bad, not just because I’m a proud Englishman but because it’ll show some of you lot up for the plums you are. Every single player deserves to be there, every single one.

  5. He’s been average from day one. He just had a decent defence in front of him. Even when he was keeping clean sheet after clean sheet, I don’t recall brilliant saves, the other sides just didn’t hit the target. How many times have you seen him make saves that you think “how did he save that”. A dozen maybe, and 10 of those were in two games (Liverpool & Arsenal) Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  6. I only turned on at the end and he was doing my ****ing head in. After goal difference, goals scored, head to head, yellow cards is better than tossing a coin. Mind you, Lawro could do it as he’s a top tosser Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  7. What did you want them to do, attack and maybe get caught on the break or play normally and maybe pick up 2 bookings. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  8. I’m still waiting for Gaston the last great one with “potential “ to come good. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

  10. Danny Murphy, what a ****ing helmet. Doing my head in. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  11. He’s not in the same class, big fanny won’t be haunting anyone. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  12. ****ing hell, I bet you’re a laugh down the ale house. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  13. Put him on ignore. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  14. Manchester City home. Mane got a hat trick but Tadic was sublime that day. Pass and touch like Bally that day, no higher compliment than that. Wonderful performance. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  15. Exactly. Although it’s not my pocket, it’s the shareholders who benefit. I’m just an employee who manages other employees. I’ve posted many times that the 3 things that suppress the poorest wages are 1. Immigration 2. Working families tax credits 3. Minimum wage. Immigration speaks for itself, it increases supply. Tax credits just subsidise employers and the minimum wage has become a benchmark rather than a floor. There’s absolutely no incentive to increase wages, and the minimum wage suppresses wage competition. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  16. The ones with families have it topped up with benefits or the other half works full time, bringing in an equal amount. The single ones tend to be nippers or immigrants. The ones that voted and have discussed it,are pretty much all Leavers. Whelks parody is unfortunately wide of the mark as more than half of them are chicks. No titty pics I'm afraid.
  17. I’m always weary of claiming why people voted, but I don’t think this is right. I think people didn’t believe Osborne’s predications or didn’t think it applied to them. If you’ve got nothing you’ve got nothing to lose. The people who work for me earn about 16K, I doubt they believe any Government would let them see their salary drop to £11,700. Of course the actual figure is based on slower growth in future years, but that got lost in all the project fear overkill. From my point of view, nothing’s more depressing than putting a price on independence or sovereignty. I felt the same about the SNP’s independence campaign. You either believe Scotland should be independent or you don’t, saying I do provided it doesn’t cost me money, is hardly Braveheart stuff. In actual fact there’s something quite heartening in people voting for principled, rather than monetary reasons. If Donald Trump agreed to pay every UK household 5k a year for 20 years provided The UK became a state of The US, I’m sure the Remoaners would turn that down, even though they’d be making themselves 100k poorer. Some things are more important than money. If you’re making independence & sovereignty decisions based on how it effects your finances, then ultimately everything has a price.

  18. The time to start ****ing about and playing for second was during the Panama game when we were 3-0 up. Should have just taken that. I’ve no doubt Jose would have settled for a 3-0 then played out a boring 0-0 Thursday, job done. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

  21. Refereeing error then Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  22. Exactly as I said. Poor refereeing is the issue, not VAR. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  23. Less educated is quantifiable, less knowledgable about the issue isn’t. The reality is you’re showing extreme arrogance to assume that just because people didn’t agree with you, they had less knowledge of the subject. I’d imagine many many leave voters of my age will be in the same boat as me. Supportive of the EEC, until Maastricht when the nature of the beast changed. My educational level never changed, neither did my knowledge of the issue. What changed was the EEC, I didn’t suddenly become less educated, or less knowledgable of the issue. The other point you seem to be missing is the correlation between education and the vote. You seem to imply that people voted leave because they’re not as clever or educated. Have you ever thought that maybe the better educated had done better out of our relationship with The EU , than the lower educated. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  24. Not going to happen, FIFA are adamant the final decision must be down to the on pitch referee. Rightly so imo. The issues yesterday wasn’t the VAR, the issue was poor refereeing. I was totally against any technology being involved, but seeing it in action has changed my mind. The problems are not down to VAR but pundits not understanding its remit, players still arguing and referees still making very poor decisions. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  25. My understand was it was ambiguous, with Liverpool claiming that the specific clause was that they had to “consider” any bid over £40mil. In other countries release clauses are actually buy out clauses. Technically the player buys out the remaining years of his contract, though clearly the money comes from the buying club. Don’t know what happens in England, but they do seem pretty rare. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
