I completely agree; it was CB Fry drawing parallels, not me.

Apart from the numpty rounds of the FA Cup, tell me where English Football uses seeding at all. Bellend.

LOL at CeeBee and DullDays sneering at something that doesnt exist. Where did I use England as the sole, or even main context in which I complained about the process ? I used France 98 as an example. So f**king what ? I still dont care that we've got to Rio, since Woy will go with his conservative unimaginative squad taking the likes of Gerard and Lampard and leaving the likes of Clyne, Shaw and Lallana at home and we will make the second round, tops. FIFA dont stick with one process, and something is guiding the changes. Considering Blatter's obsession with his legacy that has brought us a Qatar WC that is in a complete mess, and pressure to reduce the number of European places, I know what I think is causing it.

My hopes/expectations plummet further by the day..

Well, I agree with him Turks. I used to have a lot of time for Russian people and Russia, but the whole nations seems to have adopted Putin-eque "f**k you" attitudes over everything when dealing with others/outsiders. Imo the bad behaviour of their tourists in other countries is rapidly catching up to the bad behaviour of the British.

Its about time UEFA started taking racist abuse seriously. Its going on in far too many countries. And the way CSKA are trying to discredit Toure rather than deal with the real issues is disgraceful.

I feel sorry for the likes of Adams and Lawro, the old School footballing institutions, they simply cannot fathom that Football is changing...

This.

of course I am, DullDays.

Good result from the sort of game we slip up on. Reassuring dominant Performance - cant see us going down, and who knows the other way ? Bit disappointing only 2 goals. No place in the team for The Gash, imo Questionable for me that Osvaldo is first preference ahead of Rickie; for me Rickie plays for the team more, and Osvaldo more for himself.

So, he didnt get on. Maybe "delusion" wasnt so wide-of-the-mark after all. Guly came on in preference for him.

If you mean I speak my mind, give my own opinion and allow my emotions to show through at times, you're damn right. Better than being a toe-the-line happy-clappy bellend.

I thought that it has been long established that his family dont like it ?

I put up with a helluva lot of provocation for the amount I snap back.

There are so many "what ifs" about this set of predictions; maybe he didnt even do them himself and they were ghost-written. Maybe he just doesnt like the Jacksonville Jaguars owner. I seem to recall there was a lot of rivallry between Montana and Dan Marino of the Miami Dolphins; maybe he just doesnt like Florida and anything connected to it. But any bloke who calls a Saints 4-1 win in his name is a top fella in my book.

Well, he was useless, but now he seems to have found a role in life. Our pantomime villain....

Strange, I dont think I came down either way in that post, you whinging old bag.

I dont know whether to respect the optimism or deride the delusion..... Personally, I reckon crunch time has arrived. If he doesnt play now and put in some decent performances over the next 3 games, I reckon he's gone. I think the momentum is already towards the exit, and MP is perhaps thinking of giving him enough rope. Its a win-win for MP; if The Gash performs, he perhaps get match-winning contributions. If he doesnt, he gets rid of one of his biggest wage-earners and the chance to replace with his own man.

I see the tw*t expects Fulham to get a draw from us. He really despises us, doesnt he ? Cant even get the name of our manager right... Joe Montana seems to like us though...

Honesty ? Brilliant I didnt realise that some of you were so anal-retentive that you tracked every post you make on here. Well, maybe I knew that about MLG...

I dont know whether to congratulate you for proving my earlier post wrong (yep, you managed to find one game when I was about during the game itself; it slipped my mind because mostly I've been too busy to sit on here during games) or feel deep sympathy for you that you went back through all the match games and managed to find one or two posts from over a month ago just so you could feel righteous... What is hillarious however is the whiny follow-ups from Hypochondriac who is the biggest WUM on the site and Batman "I dream of my first Michelin star and touch myself when Heston Blumenthal is on TV" DullDays

I havent posted during a game at all this season, which just goes to show how accurate your assessment is... Just remembered that I have commented on Lovren a couple of times too. Probably that doesnt count because I have done nothing but praise him....

So who else have I slagged off apart from the two you have just, erm, slagged off ? The only other player I have really commented on in the past 6 months is Danny Fox, and I have tried to be balanced about him. Berk.

Yep, I readily admit I have written off The Gash. As for Osvaldo, I am undecided but one goal is a poor return so far. I dont know what the problem is where he is related, do we not play the right way ?

Its a priority list, you berk. Cant you read ?
