  1. Pleasantly surprised by KEA. Expectedly disappointed with the shit officiating.
  2. Mo is an all time great now. It'll be interesting to see which way he diversifies his portfolio. Edit - Gemili deserves a mention too. Sub 20 and stunning speed endurance for someone so green.
  3. would you rather we kept him, kept paying him wages, and didnt use him? I completely understand the perspective of him being wasted wages, and if he frees up wages for another signing then I'm all for it. However, if we don't bring anyone in and we finish below Fulham because of Bent's goals we could potentially lose out on more than 80k in prize money. Or am I being too in depth? Not 80k, 80k per week plus £2m fee. That's like£6m.
  4. His seemingly intentional collection of yellow cards at Christmas, his late tackles, his wages and the fact he was bought by McHoofdraw definitely sour my view of him. He's better than some first team RBs, especially Shotton/Wilkinson at Stoke.
  5. Some of the managers fulfil different roles to their contemporaries and some are far better in certain areas of their jobs than they are in others. Overall BOF's list is pretty good except Brenton should be higher and Holloway should be lower.
  6. Chelsea Citeh Utd Spurs Arse Liv Aston Villa Football Club Swan Wham Ev Nor Ful Stn WBA Sun Crdf Stoke Newc Hull Cpal You're right about looking back at your (as in my own) foolishness. I look forward to it.
  7. Well if that's the case I'm not sure why you were so pleased to point out that the other gentleman wouldn't be getting any of them. They seem pretty shit to be honest.
  8. Take it all back, well done VM.
  9. Have a million points just for being so smug Is that a lot? Sorry for the confusion, I'm new to all this you see.
  10. Are we eligible? I thought our clean sheet licence ran out last year.
  11. Assuming I don't lose these Internet points when I'm wrong I'd like to predict all unlikely events to happen in the games this weekend. Please pay the winnings from any correct predictions straight into my account so that I can exchange them for real money.
  12. I wish good DB9 to DB9. It's important that DB9 gets a DB9 to DB9 again. DB9 is a DB9, DB9 DB9. DB9.
  13. Yeah the level of technical ineptitude required for it to be a problem is high.
  14. For non footballing CBs like Cuellar it might be an issue. Vlaar and Okore are both good on the ball though so it's pretty irrelevant.
  15. Lowton replaced him. I thought Hutton played quite well but you'll have to jog my memory with the times his replacement was "far worse".
  16. And all in good time to see more of this too:
  17. And our current owner has seen us competing with the relegation candidates for 3 years in a row. Not through lack of investment or ambition though is it? That's the most important thing. Those characteristics in a chairman, along side the ability to learn from his mistakes, which Ol' Randy Dandy seems to be doing as well, should hopefully stand us in good stead. Randy isn't undeserving of criticism but I feel like he's taking us in the right direction at this current time.
  18. Right. Because the first time that match was mentioned in this thread was people goading Con and Con definitely hadn't previously claimed that all of the droves of interested teams were waiting until this match to make their bids so as not to start a bidding war (or something equally nonsensical). Oh, wait a minute...
  19. Then why did we hold up the £ signs? Why did we want Doug gone? Maybe because his pennypinching was to the extent where we had our bumfluff manager telling us that the best we could hope for was to compete with the likes of Charlton. Sustainable business model doesn't mean zero risk. That's what Doug wanted, a nice little dividend every year while we ticked over with no signs of progress. Ironically when we were being told that we were competing with Charlton we signed Baros and they signed Bent for half the fee.
  20. Not sure about that. There are such random variables that even a side with the quality Chelsea possessed a couple of seasons back could finish outside the top four. I think ourselves, Liverpool, and Arsenal are much of a muchness, if you were forced to rank us you'd probably, as it stands, go Spurs, Arsenal, Liverpool, but the quality difference is so slight that randomness means it could go in any order. I honestly think Liverpool are nowhere near either of you cockney spiv brigades in terms of quality of squad. They were 11 points off last season, their signings aren't a patch on yours and their star man is a raving lunatic.
  21. Gabby is the best thing on twitter. g15bes ‏@g15bes Protected account2m When people youve never met who dont know u exist block u, call 112 to report the crime. You are welcome. I take it back. Gabby's twitter is the best thing on the internet.
  22. Did you say it to someone else as well or is Jack joining the bomb squad?
