"How I turned a Torres Hat Trick into a criticism of Rafa" By Chris Bascombe

[King Emlyn]

OK. I'll get a copy off the in laws later.

 

Its amusing that people would rather assume I was lying...not sure what my motivation for that might be.

Don't bother doing that, of course you're not making anything up. Why did Benitez and Bascombe fall out in the first place? Does anybody know? In fairness to Bascombe i do think he really helped Benitez out when the Yanks were definitely going to sack him but obviously something has happened since and i have no idea who was in the right and who was in the wrong, if either. Does anybody know what went on?

I too would like to know this.

I guarantee that if someone posts an explanation to KE's question someone will be on to call him a fucking liar etc.

[Guest Numero Veinticinco]

Bascombe was on horse tranquilliser (thus not saying hello to anybody, except maybe horses) and Rafa waved to the 'little fucking cunt' and Bascombe didn't wave back. Rafa later wanted to know why he didn't wave hello to him today when he waved hello to you today.

 

I'm fairly sure that's the way it went down.

Yep, no one would believe it so there's no point in posting it.

[Guest Numero Veinticinco]

Don't knock the lair, you liar.

Even if Rafa had bummed his cat, it wouldn't legitimise some of the abject shite he's been writing. It woz Rafa wot made me do it.

Bascombe sits there on a saturday and says to his mates in pub watch that liverpool forum in the morning this will get them going and takes bets on how long before it becomes a major issue :whatever: fucking hell why give him the attention he craves

[hamstrung]

 

Missed the start of the cricket now. Hope it makes a few people happy.

Ah, so that's it - Rafa bummed his cat. The filthy Spanish gimp

Nicely photoshoped, hammy.

Fuck that. Real men use Paint.

To be fair to Chris, I very much doubt he had anything to do with that, not the headline at least, and it wouldn't surprise me if the text below was the workings of a sub-ed looking to sensationalise it a little.

Although Rafa Bummed My Cat would make for a great t-shirt slogan. I wonder if I could make that work commercially.

[Guest Numero Veinticinco]

Exactly. That's why I said photoshop.

 

 

Zing. Or whatever the cool kids are saying these days.

[Kurt]

It's to be expected now. If there isn't anything real to attack him with then just make stuff up and attack him with that. The stupid thing is that criticism from a balanced writer means so much more than from someone so obviously driven by an agenda to oust him. I don't particularly agree with some of the opinions that Usher might have about the gaffer but he'll generally present them in a balanced way and so he'll win me over to his side of the debate an infinite amount more times that Bascome's shite will.

 

 

Can u get wit it

To be fair to Chris, anything he has his name on, headline aside, is his responsibility. He knows that and we all know it.

It was the "Shame Rafa didn't play them together line" which was the focus of most people's ire.

I don't think its the headline Andy, more the last sentence in the piece attributed to Bascombe.

Even that I doubt was his doing, looks like a hatchet job from a sub-ed

The old adage about lying down with dogs springs to mind.

[hamstrung]

I could care less about the content now. I am more annoyed that I have had to speak to the in laws twice in one day, because of it.

[WhiskeyJar]

He was wrong to write that. He would not have wrote it if he knew better.
