  1. I've been quite critical of birds in football & particularly the BBC pandering to them and over promoting them in their sports coverage. But credit where it's due, I listened to Five live's football daily podcast from Saturday and in particular the results at the end. Some bird read them out and although no James Alexander Gordon, did a bloody good job. Clear, concise, professional voice. Very impressed and it just goes to prove that when given jobs on merit alone they can be impressive. She was as good as any man could be. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. I thought it was a bit classless the way he was booed yesterday. I don't know what went on behind the scenes and I've seen some West Ham fans claiming he's an arrogant twt around their club, but I don't think either the club, Claude or Jose handled his departure, and the events leading up to it, particularly well. I was extremely proud of the guy winning the Euros after his journey with us and it was such a shame that within a month or two there was bitterness and distrust. That side that got us two promotions gave me some of my greatest days watching the club and I hope one day in years to come they're all welcome back at the club. I remember the hostility shown towards Bally upon his City return, but that is all forgotten now, I hope it'll be the same for Jose & Lallana. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  3. I've sat in the home end at Anfield, 3 of us , all Saints supporters and nobody gave a shiete. Mind you we did lose 4-2 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  4. I believe scored 5 out of 5 in Italy, including in the champions league, he's our main striker , the peno he missed was placed in the corner & was a good save, yet you wouldn't have him on your list. Dear god ....... As soon as JWP misses one, will he be off your list Austin, Gabbi, JWP in that order. He should of had it yesterday. Tadic is a selfish ****. Would have done wonders for Gabbi, on a hat trick by half time. Banished the one miss of his career to history. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  5. OR let the guy get a shot away, FF should have gathered it or pushed it wider and Bertrand could have acted quicker Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  6. Boscombes next 2 games are Man C at home & Arsenal away. Could easily be sitting on 0 points middle of sept Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  7. Tough crowd, but Brucie had them in the palm of his hand https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=oqL-jOV194A Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  8. I had a Huddersfield supporter round my house for the Italy game and as he left he said " your boy did well". I've always thought he played ok that night, & no amount of stick he got made me change my mind. As for today. I remember a game at The Dell when Gazza scored a free kick . I think Jones was the keeper, but maybe my memory is wrong. I slagged him off all the way home, only to watch on motd that it was unsavable, so I've always tried (and frequently failed ) to reserve judgment on keepers till I've seen the reply. My gut feeling today was FF should have pushed it further wide. Having watched the reply, I actually think a top quality keeper wouldn't have spilled it. It wasn't a good a save as I thought it was in real time. I'm probably biased because I think the blokes average at best, but that's my view Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  9. Opinions seem to range from one extreme to the other. Very hard to make too many judgements, it's his first game in England & against 10 men for most of it. I thought he was ok, nothing spectacular but steady enough. The big tests will come when Silva, Micky T & others are drifting into the 10 position or when top sides hit us on the transition. OR was superb last couple of years, but it took him a while to find his feet. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  10. Wenger's press conference is funny. He stated that "after losing like that you can only blame yourself ". Before going on to complain about the referee not giving a peno & the disallowed goal. A disallowed goal which showed the Lino made an absolutely fantastic call. Probably more by luck than judgement, but offside none the less. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  11. Got out of jail there. Second half was woeful, safe lazy football. Only the 2 centre halves really put the effort required in. They may have looked dodgy defensively (and I know that's what they're paid for) but at least they tried to break the lines. Stephens, with the ball a couple of times & Yoshida bursting forward a couple of times before he was fouled. Although why the bloke fouled him is beyond me, he should have just given him a free header as he'll miss every time. Everybody else was just recycling the ball, side to side, up to Gabbi than back, then side to side. Pretty much the same as last year. It started the end of the first half. FF at fault imo. But did you see the 3 or so minutes after that? Dawdling about, corner that took an age to take. Attitude was defo, "we've won this". Shocking, no surprise they came out and stuck it to us. Early on we looked good. Gabbi's movement is fantastic, but we delay passing to him too much. Probably a hangover from last season's style, but we need to play him in down the sides more & earlier than we do. Tadic on the Pen, WTF. Gabbi should take them if Austins off. Even the ones he scores are heart in mouth moments. Antonio a real handful, it's what we're missing, a direct powerful runner. At the end of the day, we deserved a win last week & a draw this, so can't really complain. MoTM is a tough one as nobody shone all game. Yoshida for his effort & winning the Peno or Charlie for sticking it away. Never any doubt he was going to score, if Tadic had picked the ball up, I think I'd have ****ed off home.

  14. My old man was a Building society manager in the early 70's. He came Home one day & had a conversation with my mum saying that he thought he'd ****ed up. He'd ok'd a builders mortgage for 17k and was having second thoughts. In those days it was entirely down to him, within certain criteria, and he was on the hook if the bloke defaulted. Of course fast forward 25 years & 17k didn't seem like a lot of money. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  15. 4 shot in Cambrils tonight attempting another attack, great work by the Spainish police. If the religion of peace decided to turn violent, we're really ****ed. Although maybe I shouldn't jump to any conclusions, this one could be 4 Norwegians with mental health issues. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  16. This is what Abi Wilkinson a Guardian writer tweeted earlier "Britain has a problem with men raping girls" is a statement that better describes the situation, that's the thing. These people are ****ing lunatics. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  17. What a ridiculous way to judge if someone "gets it". Their other posts, nothing to do with footballs gay problem "I think JWP is an average player".....you ****kng homophobe. "We should play 3-5-2 formation"..... Stop with your anti gay agenda. "Has anyone got a spare Palace ticket"......Ban the Nazi Please explain what the "it" is? This week a referee came out, that's pretty ****kng brave, but it would be if a ref had said he liked old Grannies or fat birds. I don't see why a club employee feels the need to announce to the world his sexual preferences. Not because I'm uncomfortable with them, but because it's boring and pointless.

  18. Hope not, want to see them slug it out around Europe, playing Thurs-Sunday, for nothing. Nice defeat in the quarters or semis would be nice. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  19. How many points would we have dropped in the meantime. By the time he decides to do what he's paid for we could be out the League cup & dropped 4 or 5 points we'd have gained had he been playing. It makes me laugh that some supporters will abuse people doing their absolute best, Puel for one, but are quite happy to forgive someone who is taking the Mick and doesn't want to play. Not only that he compounded the issue by playing the victim with that pathetic statement trying to paint the club in a poor light. People are getting hot & bothered about Mick Quim or Jamie Redknapp disrespecting the club, or plenty of other pundits & writers. Yet the person who is showing more disrespect than them all added together is to be "welcomed back". **** off, not by me he's not. I'd rather see him sit in the stands but if he does deem us worthy of his great talent again, I'll ignore the **** even if he scores. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  20. Please explain which of my views are "unenlightened". I treat gay people the same as straight ones, so maybe it's the view that men shouldn't need to "come out", maybe the view I've expressed, that I don't care one way or the other. I don't care what floats straight people's boats and I don't care what floats gay folks boats. If that's unenlightened than political correctness has gone mad. I sometimes drink in a pub run by gays,because the owner & his husband keep a damn good pint. They didn't tell me they were gay when I first walked in, it's never been discussed , just like I don't discuss the landlords sexual preferences in a straight bar. It's just a pub,and I act like I do in any other pub. We talk about football, bands, holidays. I don't feel the need to tell other customers I'm straight,and they don't feel the need to tell me whether they're gay or not.If a customer said "I'm gay" to me, I'd say "I'm not interested mate", just the same response I'd give if they said they were straight. Wouldn't that be better if everyone was like that? To try and portray me as some sort of homophobic dinosaur is insulting and false. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  21. Makes you wonder why we've been ****kng about with him the past 2 years. Should have gone out on loan both seasons. Players at his age need first team games, whose to say that with 2 years and 60 championship games under his belt, he couldn't have played a decent part in our first team this season? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  22. I like 3 at the back, because you can get 2 up top with no loss of midfield control. We could play a 3-4-1-2, provided the 10 was capable of getting back in and making it a 3-5-2 when they have the ball. That way we could play both Austin & Gabbi However, with the players we have, Id imagine if we play 3 at the back it'll be a 3-4-3 with only one of Austin or Gabbi (unless one plays in a wide role), with Redmond & Tadic wide. Still think we're bluffing & signing another CB will mean bye bye VvD, or at a push Yoshida. Just don't see Stephens & Yoshida as 3rd & 4th and the Polish guy as 5. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  23. So the reason there's gay pride is because people like me want gay people treated exactly the same way as straight people. Want nobody to give a flying **** whether someone is gay or not and wants the process of "coming out" obsolete. If everybody was like me, it wouldn't be considered "brave" to tell people you prefer meat & 2 veg to a chick, it would be considered boring. Feel free to continue to denigrate people like me, because it gives you an opportunity to signal your virtue. But I don't need to parade my pro gay credentials by marching or having pride, I just treat them the same as straight blokes Perhaps you should look in the mirror as your "retarded" statement will be offensive to some.

  24. How on earth can you reach that conclusion from what was written. What he claimed & was 100% right about, is that people who make a big fuss about guys coming out, who say "isn't it wonderful" are marking gays out as different. If Shane Long did an interview admitting he fancied birds with big knockers nobody would bat an eyelid (except a few lefties & wimmin lib 9 pinters). If JWP came out the closet, the virtue signallers are actually the ones who will make it "different" than a heterosexual saying he likes chicks Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  25. Surprised Brighton aren't interested. He'd be perfect for them Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
