  1. Well, I hope you enjoy it! All the best.
  2. But that’s still better than Long and Austin. We need to shift them as priority number one, if we possibly can. I’d be quite happy for Ralph to have a pre-season with Carrillo then make a call. Ings, Carrillo, Obafemi, Redmond - that’s a nice mix of attributes. The issue here is that Ings and Obafemi seem to be injured all the time and you question the ability of the ones, other than Ings, to regularly finish with composure.
  3. My friend’s mum voted leave because, “things aren’t how they used to be”.
  4. The Ragged Slag.
  5. Say hi to Lenny for me next time you see him.
  6. The Austin goal against Watford is particularly galling when you see things like Sterling’s goal against Watford, I think, being given. Under current interpretations there is no way Yoshida should have been given offside.
  7. How was he? Did he do the classics?
  8. Worth a read: https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2019/apr/01/petitions-jokes-halt-brexit-calamity-brexit-english

    It wasn't the first time. We've played that formation away at Cardiff and against Derby, off the top of my head. It's good when you win the ball and break but you look vulnerable down the flanks. Against a good team we'd probably get stuffed playing like that.
  10. Very lucky there. But it's Spurs so it was inevitable Spurs would Spurs it.
  11. ****ing moron.
  12. Good point!
  13. He's just gone off injured.
  14. He probably got paid on time by Sunderland.
  15. I don't know. Could have been very different. We could have been 3 down in the first half against Spurs and could have easily drawn today. Conversely, we could have got something at Old Trafford though. If you look at our performance level it's still pretty poor and there's a general lack of quality. What we have at the moment is commitment and well-drilled players. We're nowhere near the level we were when we finished 8th under Poch and Koeman. The squad is way too thin up front and we only have one right back.
  16. Oh, absolutely. First thoughts were that pilot had been stitched up with a dodgy plane and was just doing his job but if those reports are true then he should have declined to take off regardless of the state of the plane. As you say, though, that’s not the only thing that stinks about this.
  17. That team should be capable of scoring goals but you do worry about the defence. Need Rom and Hoj to protect the back 4. Hopefully we’re on the front foot from the off and taking it to Brighton.
  18. Absolute disgrace really. That plane should never have taken off. Complete amateur hour. Someone needs to be held accountable, although it sounds like the pilot needs to shoulder a fair portion of the blame.
  19. That’s why old people shouldn’t have been allowed to vote.
  20. We're leaving in 13 days though.
  21. That’s not cream in there. And it ain’t jam either. Triffic.
  22. To make speeding unpleasant.
  23. Do you think the poxy wage of £70somethingK is commensurate to the importance of the job or the skills required to do it well?
