Today's Other Games

[moof]

Southampton just taken the lead against portsmouth, this game has gone off big time in the last 5-10 mins. Cracking atmosphere.

 

Apparently Nigel Adkins is a red from Birkenhead, so I guess I'm rooting for him. Am I right in saying Rickie Lambert is also a red?

[moof]

1-1 cracking goal from a lad with a bit of a gut.

[Red Banjo]

wow, this Spuds v Sunderland game is dull.

 

I can't remember a single chance. Atleast it prepares me well for our game

[Redder Lurtz]

I used to play snooker with a lad who couldn't tell the difference between the green and black. Was good fun, like.

 

The brown & reds, me, when I used to play. Lost count of how many times I've fouled by potting a colour then a brown. Mates never said anything when I was lining the shot up either, bunch of cunts.

[gumps]

Still in the race for fourth? We're not even in the race to finish in the top six.

 

Let's just try to win today and then hopefully Everton don't.

 

This^^

 

Spurs doing their best to fuck things up.

 

Seeing as we're well out of it, I'm hoping Spurs and Newcastle sneak 3rd & 4th and fuck Arsenal & Chelsea out of the CL for a season. See how they like it!

 

Small time and schadenfreud (sp?) I know, but I need some comfort!

[Redder Lurtz]

Bale is a vile cheating cunt.

[FrenchEyeGlass]

Stop talking shite.

 

We have a better keeper, a better defense and a better midfield, with a goalscorer like they have we would be comfortably in 3rd now.

 

Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight.

 

You are the most deluded person on this website.

[J-V]

Etherington doesn't get sent off for putting his face into a Wolves players face. What a surprise.

Did the Wolves player go down?

[moof]

Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight.

He's right though. With a goal scorer we'd easily be 15-20 points better off.

[J-V]

Did the Wolves player go down?

 

Nope. Probably because he's not a shithouse with a shit name.

I cannot be bothered arguing with you. I've read your ridiculous posts over the past few months.

 

Delusion.

So a goalscorer, ala van Persie, wouldn't add anything to our side? Interesting.

[Captain]

Nope. Probably because he's not a shithouse with a shit name.

 

And there's the answer. Players throw themselves to the ground in those circumstances because they know it pretty much guarantees a red card for the other player.

Would we be third?

 

Edit: Its besides the point. Im not confident that Kenny or Comolli will buy a Van Persie.

When the point was about in what areas of the park Newcastle are better than us then no it certainly isn't beside the point to name a goalscorer being the difference.

 

I dunno where we'd be but given we could've dead easily won half a dozen of the game we've drawn this year with better finishing I don't find it that unrealistic that we couldn't be in that position.

I reckon Kevin Doyle will come good when we sign him for £13 million.

[Mr T]

Would £35M buy you a Van Persie?

 

Kenny had that much and he blew it on a -£15M player.

So if a manager makes a mistake that is it, is it?

 

Boss tolerance levels you have.

It's not one mistake though is it? It's one of the worst transfers in the history of the game. Add that to the other signings he's made. You then say, I paraphrase, "if we have a good striker" we'd be fine. Well we could and should have a good striker - £35M should get you one. But we signed Carroll, then Downing, Henderson, Adam et al.

Is "one of the worst transfers in the history of the game" suddenly more than "one mistake" now, is it?

 

I never said we'd be fine because I simply don't believe we'd be so. That is why I didn't say we'd be winning the league with one. I firmly believe that we are a consistent goalscorer away from Arsenal, Spurs, Chelsea and Newcastle though.

 

Adam, Henderson and Downing are all decent players who haven't consistently performed as well as they did at their previous clubs, for whatever reason. I don't think any of them would be getting as much shite if we'd bought a better player than Carroll and actually been in the battle for those final two European Cup places.

a mistake?

 

Listen, buying a bad player is one thing. Buying four bad players for ridiculous amounts of money, continually sticking with them, playing a lot of your players in the wrong position, poor tactics, handling the Suarez affair terribly and saying ridiculous things in press conferences and interviews is another.

 

Dont even know anymore. I love Kenny and sometimes that takes precedence. But this isn't good enough for our club.

No they're not. They're shit. Every one of them. Adam and Downing sometimes have a flash of averageness, but thats it.

[moof]

You are seriously fucking stupid, like, monumentally stupid.

For goodness sake. I don't know why I bother with the internet because it always ends in pathetic linguistic games. Look. It's very simple. A mistake could be:

 

a) forgetting to put two sugars instead of one in a cup of tea

b) signing Andy Carroll

 

However, the second is quite a lot worse than the first. To suggest that the two are comparable in terms of consequences is a bit silly, no? I then helped you, by going further.. "Add that to the other signings he's made". So it's one horrific mistake after another. It isn't forgetting to put milk in your tea, it's wasting up to £100M of money. It's serious.

 

Once you make a series of bad mistakes you cannot complain that if only we had a great striker, we'd be dead good. We should have a great striker but we don't and that is Kenny's fault.
