The rules (all of them) need a total overhaul. My suggestions: Get rid of DRS for starters. I'm with BOF its like the Wacky **** Races it totally de-skills teh drivers and provides absolutely no excitement whatsoever. Get rid of KERS - again, adds very little to the sport IMO beyond "OMFG - he's pressing the BOOST button" If you want the cars to go faster - allow them to go faster for the whole lap.... not just in silly fits and starts. Remove the engine restictions - if teams want a massive v12 let them have it...... if they want a turboed v8 - allow that too - different solutions to the ultimate aim - get the car to the flag as fast as you can. Introduce competition in the tyre supplier Impose ONE mandatory pitstop for tyres Use 1 tyre compound for the race weekend quali and all - limit sets of tyres to 3 per car per weekend. If you puncture you have spares available.... after that... tough. Permit mid season testing Impose a set volume of fuel per car per weekend..... teams will have to balance quali times with fuel efficiency Re-introduce refuelling into the race. Introduce aerodynamic laws so that the air behind the car is "clean" you can't "dirty" the air flow from the back of the car to disadvantage an opponent. Ban electronically managed engines. If a driver needs to nurse his car let him do it himself not flick a switch on the car and have it done for him. Oh and most importantly NEVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER race at a Tilke desinged circuit again. The problems in f1 and the appalling lack of overtaking are a direct result of this idiots circuit design which pretty much prevents it. The template of huuuuuuuge straight, sharp bend... wobbly bit..... straight sharp bend repeat is shit. It is no co-incident the best races to watch and the ones the drivers love are the older established circuits (monaco, silverstone, montreal, hockenheim, spa) that this collosal bellend hasn't been allowed anywhere near. Feel free to argue with me.

Ahhhh the Montreal Screwjob. To be fair to Brett that was one quality lump of phlem he gobbed at Vince. He had 4 or 5 goes at wiping that off. Also at the bloke saying to HBK "WALK" as he pretty much drags him up the ramp......

The most influential person at the club this month and next will be Groundskeeper Willie trying to repair the damage to that hallowed turf caused by Bon-fuckinh-Jovi.

** distributes vicious back handed bitch slap. WTF? Don't bother to go then..... if you're beaten now you wont win. Grrrrrrrrrrrrr I will motivate you Jones. Now drop and give me 50.

I thought I'd cornered the market when it came to stick drawing but Take a bow son ..top work love it then you've given Jen the gold medal , though if I was being critical I'd say you haven't made Rob hairy enough My version of paint is simply too crappy to do justice to Rob's magnificent mane.

I often find myself nodding when I read your posts but have you taken leave of your senses? Nope. He is dead right. Scarlett Johansson is soooooo much better.

I have no interest in your choice of music, however, if I may divert slightly off topic I would like to request that the bottom of your board for the Olympics is a very simple design: Rob's face from his Avatar and "DHUTWU" **** corporate sponsorship.....you know it makes sense.

And predictably utd offer a lot less than is than expected. Always do it to turn the players head. Players in wanting to join the biggest club in the world shocker?

Fixed

In the pronunciation of foreign names debate consistency is the key. Either anglicise all or do the full johnny foreigner. DONT say "Bachrain" for example and then chicken out of "Paree"

He's like a lot of comedians, you have to wade through a fair bit of junk to find anything good..... but his "daughters boyfriend staying over/beer in the fridge" observations almost had me in tears.

The wrong one?

As a left leaning person (and presumably also anti-establishment, anti-greed & greedy bankers), why does that cheer you up? I think it's a disgusting decision. The guy is Married to a British citizen, and they have a small child. His protest was valid, just the manner misjudged perhaps. I too am surprised at that Ajax..... seems at odds with your general philosophy on life......

F1 driver. Massive amounts of fanny will follow you about afterwards anyway....

People who continually suck the fun out of internet forum threads with bizarre moralising

Dogmatism. Particularly when its not consistent.

Come on tamuff thats not even a question. ..... bring on the munters.

Ugly girl - good hygiene. (paper bag on standby)

Calling Voinjama........

10 Barry Bannans. It'd be like 10 pin bowling with gnomes. Who'd you do..... Megan Fox on an iron lung or Kate Upton toothless and bloody?

It is both in my opinion. Lerner showed great ambition when he came, he appointed a manager we all wanted and allowed him the freedom to spend money in order to take us to the Champions League, twice we came close. Better management of the team, better buys in the January period and we may have done it and financially it'd have all been looking rosy. It didn't happen and by the end of the 4th season and after Man City had finished above us and with all their spending power, Lerner knew it wasn't going to happen by simply spending money. The mistakes since such as McLeish are obvious and there's no denying that but under O'Neill, his biggest downfall was naivety and trust in the manager. Lerner as we know was pretty new to football, he backed a man well liked in the game and by the time of his second season when we had finished 6th and were scoring goals freely and attendances at their peak must have had a tingle of excitement to believe CL was around the corner and given the job he'd done, to stop O'Neill from signing players he believed could lead us there maybe at that point in time would have seemed very unambitious and daft, hindsight. The board are in control of finances however they are not in charge of who should be signed and to an extent how much that player should be paid. In the end, a lot of the players signed by O'Neill simply weren't up to the standard. Stephen Warnock, Richard Dunne, Curtis Davies, Nigel Reo-Coker, £30 million between them, we've received £3 million back. Those type of deals along with wages that didn't suit their abilities long term hurt us financially and are part of the mess, that is not Randy Lerner's fault in my opinion. The signings are down to O'Neill. James Collins, Luke Young, Emile Heskey, Carlos Cuellar, Marlon Harewood, Habib Beye, Steve Sidwell. There are so many he signed who simply weren't good enough and we found that out over longer periods. The difficulty in putting responsibility on either the board or O'Neill's shoulders for me comes from that O'Neill was doing a relatively good job, each year we moved forward closer to the champions league. The signings i've mentioned actually did well under O'Neill. You look now at Cuellar, Young, Warnock, Dunne, Collins as our main 5 defenders and think how much they have cost us in money and wages since O'Neill left and you wonder why? but at the time, these 5 formed one of the better defences within the league. Unfortunately quality over time has told and bar James Collins (which could change next year) all are playing for weaker sides than ourselves and we're hardly world beaters right now. It's hard to criticise a chairman when he backed a man that a lot of us backed to continue to succeed. The mistakes after that I find more shocking, the whole McLeish era, Given on such a long deal etc...that's just stupid and not really learning but we are now where I think he maybe had envisaged us after he gave the job to Houllier and new stripping the club of it's top earners was about to take place. We went down an exciting route of spending big for Champions League football, it didn't work. Now we aim to build a team that has a future and a philosophy of young talent and will hopefully progress that way, buying small, risk free, selling big profits, re-investing etc.. The middle part was a horrible phase. Randy is still investing money into the club and despite all rumours and these past couple years, it seems pretty clear he still cares deeply about the success and simply got it wrong but the future for now is looking bright, we have a good manager, a good philosophy, a seemingly good future and with money still being put into the club, Randy has for now got it right and I look across the Premier League and I don't think there are too many better owners. Post of the year. /thread.

The only way this could be worse for Newcastle fans would be for Ashley to flog the Wonga Stadium to a housing developer and agree a groundshare with Sunderland. Top work Mr Ashley. Top work.

This is the worst post I've read in a long time. So we have Lerner or Venky's they are the only 2 options. If it's not Lerner it can only be Venkys or Yeung Amazingly stupid post. Quite amazing. This is the worst post I've read in a long time. Amazingly arrogant post. Quite amazing.
