  1. El Nino did flow.
  2. JWP a way better performer than Pulisic though? He's been generally shite.
  3. Perraud, Manning, Tino, KWP, Bree.... No doubt we've got the best full backs in the league (at least for now....).

    Huw Edwards

    Magnificent. No idea what you're talking about.

    Huw Edwards

    I find his Welsh accent very soothing. I think there would definitely be such a thing as "too Welsh" for a newsreader but I've always found his voice to be very pleasant. I have nothing further to add.
  6. But he was here for the summer transfer window where we fucked up the two crucial GK and striker positions, right?
  7. You want to draw a line on ladyboys' dixons?
  8. Seems like a massive upgrade on Semmens, at least on paper. A guy with experience running a large geo for a high profile business, as opposed to someone who used to work for a marketing agency.
  9. He now occupies a larger bedroom at his mum's house.
  10. I guess Matt didn't do his research. A lesson he has clearly learned and taken to heart.

    Russia

    I guess Putin has offered him billions of dollars and a "guarantee" of safety. Worth remembering that none of these people are principled actors for functioning institutions. Wagner is a bunch of mercenaries, Prigozin has always been a violent thief and Putin runs a mafia, not a country. Desperate Vlad has just tried to buy his way out. Of course, the big question is what do Wagner do next, particularly if Prigozin has thrown them under the bus for a sackful of cash. Likewise, the Russian army - apparently Wagner shot down various aircraft, killing Russian soldiers and Putin's response to that is to flee to St Petersburg and pay off Prigozin. Hardly inspiring and deserving of loyalty.

    Russia

    It's over a thousand km from Rostov to Moscow. No way Wagner can just drive a big enough force to stage a coup along the highway and into town, without getting pummelled, unless the regular Russian army effectively downs tools. And unless they get into Moscow they don't really threaten the power base, although this is obviously embarrassing. In any case, this is all quite mental. I saw someone liken this to the Kornilov Putsch of 1917. The Wikipedia entry for this, contains the brilliant line, "The exact details and motivations of the Kornilov affair are unconfirmed due to the general confusion of all parties involved." Sounds familiar.
  13. Worth 15 minutes of your time to remind yourself what serious politicians sound like.
  14. Quietly confident that the first match will be on the Friday night, for Sky.
  15. Stop mincing around with the sideways rubbish at the back. Get it forwards FFS. In the mixer. Bunch of pansies.
  16. The store mannequins are fucking massive though. They are not regular human size.
  17. I think Gazza counts?
  18. Tella and Sulemana, with Edozie as back up, either side of a decent forward and we'll smash it. So I look forward to us playing 352 whilst they sit on the bench.
  19. Hopefully this is the last the country hears of this venal twat.
  20. Sprinkles some into his malibu
  21. I haven't seen the programme but if you're interested in Der Troubles, then I recommend the Book "Say Nothing" by Patrick Radden Keefe.
  22. All staff wages were 75% of turnover. Turnover was 150m. Therefore our total wage bill is 112m. It is in the accounts so if you're saying it can't be true you'd better have a word with our auditors. https://assets.ctfassets.net/qtmbc4zcgkle/52YumvNvXtZwIPjCnLeB8o/5a07069b86d67deb4dcd5b7bb961eeaf/St_Marys_Football_Group_Ltd_Financial_Statements_2022.pdf
  23. We'll walk the league. Piss easy.
  24. Mark Bitcoin - do me a favour. Obviously made up.
