  1. Saint Fan Cam is correct, sadly.
  2. Clearly it was a tight game. Turkish is a ****ing massive mong. A massive mong. Seriously, a pathetic, ****ing, sad, gimpy uber-mong. He's a prime ****. Everyone knows that. ****ing monger.
  3. Vag. 'night all.
  4. Well, it would certainly be pretty sad. A real man would drop 'em and give them the windmill (don't worry it looks bigger when you swing it around).

    Plebs

    "Exonerate" - **** me. On a very worse-case scenario, all that happened was a man in a high-pressured, demanding job that 99% of the population wouldn't have the smallest proportion of the requisite ability to do lost his rag a bit and threw a few, frankly pretty anodyne, rude words around in a spat witnessed by a paltry smattering of people. There is no exonerating to be done. A small apology for losing his temper is more than adequate. The fact that this was ever anything other than a very small side-story exposes the prejudices and hysteria running through this country's feeble attempts at a public discourse to a far greater degree than any prejudices Mitchell may or may not harbour.
  6. "We have the funding to succeed, provided we continue to convert pledges" = "we don't have the funding yet so that's why the adjournment was actually a blessing in disguise as we were screwed if we'd got the green light but we're still screwed anyway as we are never going to raise enough money and our property developer super PFC fan mate has no money".
  7. Those of you saying "no, he's ****", or similar, are ****ing clueless. He would obviously be a great addition to our squad. Whether he is at all realistic financially is another matter.
  8. Minus the suicidal managerial appointments and with far more ambition.
  9. If they get wind of his impending presence, no doubt those in Economy beg the airline relentlessly to stick Big Phil up the front. They probably even have a whip round if necessary.
  10. Could go to more of a diamond, therefore removing the "left wing" dilemma altogether. This would involve Cork and Puncheon putting in a lot of work though to cover wide attacks and Rodriguez and Ramirez would also have to do a lot of pressing on the other team's defence (SRL certainly won't!). Personally, I think Puncheon is probably capable of playing that role and I actually think he's better centrally than Lallana as he has a better passing range and has a better shot: -------------------------GK------------------- Clyne-----------Fonte-----Yoshida---------Shaw ---------------------Spidermans--------------- --------------Cork----------Puncheon---------- ---------------------Ramirez------------------- --------------Rodriguez-----Lamberts-----------
  11. I was in the lower East Stand, near the away section. As everyone was getting into position for the free-kick my mate tapped me on the arm and said, "Franny's free at the back-post". We both laughed and said there's no way the ball will be going to that area then. What a great header though! [video=youtube;qodg-csJI8Y]
  12. Happy memories.
  13. PKF have probably requested the adjournment because Chanrai is tring to spring something on them.
  14. "and others" - he is an administrator but he is not the only administrator.
  15. And, of course, the Owners and Directors test is only relevant in relation to the transfer of the "golden share". It has absolutely no legal effect with respect to land rights, no bearing on the value of a vacant Fratton Park and no impact on the best interests of the creditors unless the continuance of the football club has a material positive effect on the likelihood of the creditors receiving some money.
  16. This should at least make us harder to beat away form home. Every cloud.
  17. Good idea.
  18. I did too. We wrote to him when I was a kid because I liked astronomy. He wrote back and invited us round for tea. His house was ace and he had some cool observatories in his garden. Even gave us a recital on the xylophone. Seemed like a very nice chap.
  19. Yep, Lambert has never learnt how to play the ref.
  20. When Franny scored! My mate pointed out he was unmarked as the free-kick was being lined up. When Franny assaulted John Fashanu. MLT's goals against Nwcastle. MLT's 30 second goal and hat-trick against L'pool in the snow. Pahars against Everton. 6-3 Pretty sure Iain Dowie scored a good goal once and I was there. David Lee beating a defender. Neil Heaney beating a defender. Ali Dia Mickey Evans heading the post whilst scoring. Doddsy taking a red card for the team v West Ham MLT free-kick v Wimbledon Barry Horne v Bolton in the League Cup (?) Sorry.... Got a bit carried away!
  21. No, it was called Shatner's Bassoon.
  22. Quite right. Roberts and Le Fondre will cause problems if we let Reading get a load of balls into the box from wide positions but they're both pretty impotent otherwise. Key is not to give their wide men room and to dominate possession against their pretty rigid 4-4-2. If we play well with the ball we will win.

    Royal baby

    I'm sure it'll all be above board this time. Anyhoo... do we get a day off? If we do then I'm really delighted for them. Brilliant news If we don't then, frankly, I couldn't give a rat's arse.
  24. I'm sure he was. Your desire to hear some sort of valedictory moan is rather childish. He has a way of doing interviews. It works for him. It isn't going to change. He has the highest win percentage of any SFC manager since 1897. Given what he has achieved, moaning about interview styles not appealing to your tastes is frankly pathetic and smacks of a completely misguided sense of entitlement.
  25. Michu's clearly a decent player but he's scoring lots of goals because Swansea are generally a better team than we are. We have hardly been short on goals - we've scored more than half the teams in the league have. Clearly the problem has been GK, centre back and left back in terms of personnel. We have also got our midfield shape wrong at times and are too gung-ho. With those failings I'm not sure having Michu around would have made much difference.
