scotty

I saw him get plenty of stick at SMS when he was playing well. As for the skates away, I would describe his performance as "utterly intimidated".

No. It was a general comment suggesting that Guly gets far more criticism than he deserves, and as blakey mentioned that may have something to do with his skin colour.

As do I, but as blakey pointed out, would Guly have come in for the stick he's had on here if he'd been light skinned? He is one of our most skilful players, possibly second to Lallana, but the crap he gets from the SMS faithful baffles me. Ok, he doesnt get stuck in and get his leg broken every other game but he is a very accomplished player. I remember some gobby f*ckwit screaming at him through an entire match in kingsland corner, the most printable comment being "you useless black c*nt". I hate to even think it, but if anyone here is convinced that racism has been eradicated here then I can only say I disagree.

That thought had crossed my mind.

No blame apportioned hamster, nobody injured and a happy child. Plus I got my pick of the Frank Richard books in the shop. Result!!

Creepy vid, that. Can you imagine him getting away with that today? Mind you, married to Diana Dors for 7 years?? Respect!

Thats a fair comment, but if I saw roy keane outside a nightclub at 5am, and if I thought I could a/ carry it off and b/ get away with it, I would probably lamp him one. Bartons previous probably endears him to the football fans of England in much the same way. Not saying its right, but thats most likely the reason imho.

I can top that, hamster. My parents left me in a bookshop for three hours in Bournemouth, it was a family day out. They thought I was with my grandparents, who thought I was with my aunt and cousin, who thought I was with my parents, etc etc... They finally all twigged I was missing and frantically backtracked until they found me sitting on a bookshop counter surrounded by sales staff. They had been repeatedly asking me where I lived, and were utterly confused when I kept telling them "165 Bournemouth Road". Well, I didnt realise chandlers ford was anywhere different did I, and all I was interested in was did they have any more Greyfriars books, I was happy as a pig in shlt.

That'll be the one. Pretty inconclusive, if you ask me.

That the one you meant?

"almost"??! **** off indeed

I'd go along with that. Free trade and freedom of movement is fine, but our national interests should be controlled by our own elected government.

We're in the EU now. We dont have to join the single currency, so why should we? I'm reasonably content with our present situation within the EU, its a smokescreen to suggest that we absolutely have to either agree to further/total integration or get out altogether.

Thats what all the pro-europeans always call for, because thats the only referendum they are guaranteed to win. A referendum on the type of EU we actually want to belong to and our relationship with it would always result in something different to what the Germans and French are aiming for, (total fiscal and political union,) hence blairs corrupting of the UK/euro debate saying that we shouldn't hold a referendum on British entry into the eurozone but instead make it a referendum on whether we should leave europe or stay in it, as if there were no other options. Slippery bastard.

Whats with all these wimps having sunday roast "in cold weather"?? ffs!! If its sunday, its roast dinner. End of. I prefer having it at home, but if we have to be out somewhere it must be somewhere that serves a roast.

You have been a member here for 5 years, you should know better by now

genuine lol

That sounds a bit like the stuff in asparagus that makes some peoples plss smell of damp rags. I'm proud to belong to this (apparently minority) group.

I'll be working over the weekend, bank holidays included, but in honour of our monarch I will be playing the sex pistols at full blast in the van. With the windows open. So if anyones jubilee party is interrupted as a black sprinter drives past, my apologies.

...like it makes any difference.... and in any case, if they'd got it "wrong" they would have just been told to do it again until they got it right. Like last time. And the time before.

Well all I can say is that after 22 pages of this tripe he'd f*cking well better sign.

Once its common knowledge that a player is available it becomes an auction, at least partly. The selling club may find a bid of 7m acceptable, does that mean they wouldnt rather get 8m? Or more?

Edit for depps. It was a typo.
