  1. Spot on mate
  2. Was dragged off to see Michael Bolton by my partner once. He wasnt as awful as I'd thought he would be and pleased to say the mullet was gone too. Interpol - excellent band!
  3. I should add that we gained promotion to the Premiership under the ownership of Katharina and have been there for 2 seasons. Not bad for a novice eh?
  4. Yeah, a real shame. Remind me again about how much experience Nicola Cortese had in football before joinging us please (and Markus in owning a football club for that matter).
  5. Katharina, do you know how much business acumen she has? Just because she inherited the business does not mean to say she doesnt know how to run it. Ralph - clearly knows his stuff and has been brought in the run the commercial side. Hofstetter - the "fans" have been calling fr transparity for ages (something we didnt have under NC by the way) so he makes statement. Shoot him Reed - been here a while and as part of a successful team has clearly earnt his spurs. Koeman - not a Board member but brought in by the Board to succeed someone who didnt want to be here. I suspect they speak to him quite a lot about football matters. I have more faith in these people than I do a bunch of whining jumped up cyber jockies who feel quite happy to make profund statements on nothing more than conjecture. My judgement of the Board is based on the fact that they know what is happening whereas all you are doing is guessing.
  6. How many games have you seen him at CH?
  7. Yet Sharp struggled to get into a Championship team and some wanted him to play up front for us. Whodathunkit?
  8. Was it a header? As his head has been in Liverpool for some time they have had plenty of time to pratice sticking the ball on it!
  9. Perhaps they were thinking of Adam the Llama?
  10. I am always up for a bit of diversity!
  11. Let me get this right - they would have sold every member of the squad if we had takers? We had a bid in for Fonte and he is still here. Apparently we have had bids for JRod and he is still here. Werent Munich in for Boruc and he is still here? Even this Board with their previously unplumbed depth of incompetance probably realised at some point that we need to field 11 players against Liverpool.
  12. I am prepared to accept that, as with most businesses, there is a lot more going on behind the scenes than the plabs like us will ever know. No matter what you think of the people on the Board they have risen to where they are in their professions for a reason. In my experience in management you look at all of the options before making a decsion and I find it highly unlikely that they ignored the fact that Chambers could play in other positions before they decided to sell him. If we are going to have a bedwetting session everytime an ex player of our does something a) different or b) good it is going to be an even more sad place to visit than it has been already this summer. They made a call. This player is gone. It really does not matter any more. Time to move on and to move forward.
  13. Brendan Rogers in the 21st Century
  14. Does she need to go in the Totty section now?
  15. Clearly they never gave this a second thought the fools. You and your ilk never fail to amaze me Delldays.
  16. Bloody hell Whitey, what kind of pies do you eat???
  17. There's Something About St Marys
  18. Steady Whitey, at our age we could end up sharing a cell with Rolf!
  19. Hi Simo, the thing is, it is just football. I lost my mother in April. That was a tragedy. This is just sport. This summer has not been great I grant you but we are still in the Premiership with a Board that are backing a new and high profile manager. Goodness knows things have been a lot worse but even then we won a cup and enjoyed a few years are growth and relative success. I hear Arsenal fans moaning despite how many years of CL football? I expect the plastic Mancs were all wetting their beds last season because they became a mid table team, just like us mere mortals. That is what makes sport interesting. There are no givens. Try not to get so worked up. There are others on here too who I fear for their wellbeing. You can just imagibe them thumping away at the keyboard taking out their anger at this uncaring and incompetant Board with their blood pressure going through the roof. Take a breath, contact the club about the lack of pies and I am sure it will be sorted by the next home game. Sit back and see who we bring in before the deadline and then go from there.
  20. Because there are some people who want to believe that the club are to be held responsible for this situation and not a petulant, childish football who should be thankful he is not working in a beetroot bottling factory.
  21. In which case Schneiderlin needs to grow a pair and make his own career decisions. At the moment he is doing himself no favours. Having half a dozen sulking prima donas clogging up the club was never going to work but we can deal with one. He really needs to grow up and accept responsibility for himself and for the contract he was only too happy to sign.
  22. Apparently Brendan Rogers bought all the pies during the week at 4 times the retail value. (ps is your name Mr Angry?)
  23. I could say that Morgan will be off to Inter Milan before the end of the transfer window but it doesnt make it so.
