  1. My mam entered end of life care yesterday. Bed downstairs etc. They are saying days. Spent most of yesterday there, she is clearly in pain and feeling a bit humiliated by it all but fuck me still sharp as a razor. I insisted on some music on so someone put heart 80's classics on. Gold came on and I was stood by her and went "who sings this then?" obvious question and I was just seeing if she was awake anyway and she went "Human League" before I had a chance to skit her she went "you soft twat" smiled then went back to dribbling like a divvy. I walked out the room telling everyone she is on a wind-up and milking it the lazy bitch. Heartbreaking though. Off down again for the day and I just cant be arsed standing around waiting for her to pass away. Me and our kid are gonna pop round my dads for the Celtic game (its only up the road) and leave the vigil squad too it. I don't know if thats heartless but my mum was fuming so many people kept going and going yesterday. As if she knows the doctor and district nurses have told us something different to her. I genuinely don't know how to feel. Part of me wants to just lock myself in a room and scream the house down but the other side is just carrying on as if it's all gonna be ok. The band semi's might have to wait until tomorrow. I will pass on how much of an inconvenience she is being.

  10. I think it just shows people how poor modern football is when somebody like Henderson is considered a quality player. The idea that Henderson can be compared to players like Gerrard, Alonso, Essien, Toure, Viera, Scholes, Carrick is just ridiculous. The same applies to James Milner a player who wasn't even that good in his prime, yet has somehow as he's got older turned into a allegedly world class player. Also is Mane better than Henry was in his prime? No. Is Firmino better than Rooney, Aguero, or Bergkamp were? No. Is Salah better than Ronaldo in his prime or even now? No. The only player in their team that is actually world class is VVD, all the others are pretty average. You see that post is the beauty of Everton and why they bring us so much joy. Not only does that poster believe that, all of them agree. Their glasses are tinted so blue, they can't see anything. So when the gap between us and them sits at around 50 points in a year, they don't think it's because they're not very good. They look at us and think they're not far away and we're just a bit lucky. They buy someone quite ordinary and then measure them against one of ours players and believe they've closed the gap. It's like that lad from Barcelona they got, Gomez is it? They called him world class when he signed, he had about 15 good minutes at anfield and I'm not sure he's had a good game since. I won't won't even mention any more superstars they've bought since uncle uzzie started slapping the money on the table, that's too easy. Jelavic, better than Suarez. Franny Jeffers the new Fowler. It's not a new thing. And when they did strike gold with Rooney they sold him before he'd scored as many goals as he had years alive. As the saying goes, it's the hope that kills you. They're so blinded, they're convinced they're a massive club who just need the odd player and a bit of luck.... Until it goes wrong again and they turn on each other and their players and that happens very quickly. The bloke whose just been hired by Barcelona wasn't good enough for them.. I fucking love Everton me. I spend a lot of time wishing they'd go down, how great it would be to lose their bitterness. But honestly I want them to just stay exactly where they are, on this nothing existence, the most pointless club that's ever existed being absolutely tortured by living in the shadow of their bastard child. Keep us laughing blues, you're a fucking joy even in a period where football is great for us.

  12. "Little Mpupu is just 8 years old, but every morning he has to walk 10 miles to a river to collect water for his family. That water is teeming with parasites, diseases and animal waste, yet it is all Mpupu and his family have to drink. He often goes without food for days on end, and is suffering from hunger and malnutrition. We showed Mpupu the breakfast thread on TLW, and Mpupu decided that he would rather remain happy in life as he is right now. He even offered to give us our £3 a month back so he never ever has to eat that swill. Be like Mpupu. Save a life."

  13. Just read your post. I really feel for you and know exactly how you feel from when I was in a similar position with my Dad. Being the eldest of three and having two younger sisters I tried to protect them as well as my Mum who was completely shell shocked. I know you don't know me from Adam, but if you don't mind some friendly advice from a stranger, take some time for yourself. Lock yourself in that room and scream if you need to. It's a pressure release valve, and then do what you have to do. There is no right or wrong way to feel. I wish you well Mate.

  15. I don't understand 'blue collar' workers in America, and what they expect to get, realistically, from a president. They seem to be under the illusion that some Presidential candidate is going to make them all rich, like they're all in some sort of union, which is ironic as they have been conditioned to now think unions are communist, but how else could they all benefit from something? The politics 'game' is a massive problem. No poor people have gotten 'rich' as a result of a new president. Rich people have gotten richer, that's it. America, and Britain, needs to wake the fuck up to the power of socialism to raise everyone up. Invest in communities and towns and cities to make the locals feel proud of it, and they will start to help you maintain that level.

If this was a game of one upmanship on who was the biggest gobshite, nonce, rapist, murder or otherwise deplorable scum we'd be left with Rick Astley and he's a cunt, but he co owns my local so I like him.

  19. Even Lukaku would be quite the stretch for ‘world class’ - he was playing well for Everton and scoring goals, but nobody would have put him ahead of (or even alongside) Aguero, Messi, Neymar, Ronaldo - whether in his Blues days or even now. You could say Wayne Rooney I guess, but he was gone before his 19th birthday and later managed one ‘Meh’ season in his 30s once he was clearly past his best. Those three seasons saw him claim 28 goals in 117 games. This is not what I’d class as ‘world class’. Wax lyrical about his time for Man Utd if you want, all Everton saw of that was him kissing his badge for somebody else. Which leaves us scrambling around the fart end of their 1980s side. Lineker was brilliant but was gone after a single season following the 1986 World Cup. Sheedy, Ratcliffe, Steven, etc, were good players. But world class? At most I think you’re looking at Neville Southall and - utter legend though he is - by the time he left he was just shy of his 40th birthday, somehow still an Everton player only because they’d bought so many dreadful young keepers him who couldn’t actually do better than he could even as he expanded to the proportions of a mid-sized two-bed semi.

  25. What the fuck do Evertonians know about class players. Who was the last genuinely world class player whilst they playing for them?. They just celebrate mediocrity or players who "know what it means to play for Everton". They bang on about their 1985 team like they were a peak Barcelona or Milan side and just live in the past.

  26. I don’t think he's naturally injury prone like an Anderton or a Rob Jones, he's been unlucky with some nasty injuries but cruciate and medial injuries aren't something you pick up because they're weak (i presume) more you're just fucking unlucky. That being said, I never really class him as someoen we can count on in a campaign, more someone around the fringes who comes in and out and scores the odd goal, so it never feels like a big blow to lose him. I've never understood why we bought him though to be honest, never really stood out for me at arsenal and was surprised when we signed him, just don't think he adds anything at all.

  28. I've been watching a few older Scorcese films that I've been meaning to watch for a while, the bloke doesn't make a bad movie. My scores would possibly have been 9 a piece of I'd watched them on release but they are both obviously very dated now. The Last Temptation of Christ - I'm not religious but have always found the story of Jesus fascinating and Scorceses version of things is the best I've seen, it's not perfect but gives a more realistic account of things without all the hyperbole. Great casting as well. 8/10 Mean Streets - Reminds me of A Bronx Tale in its tone but it's definitely the catalyst for Scorceses later far more polished efforts. The soundtrack is phenomenal and nice early performances for Keitel and De Niro. 8/10 I've still got to see a few more of his older films, any recommendations? I've watched his recent stuff and more high profile older stuff like Goodfellas, Casino, etc.

  31. He's a write off this lad. I'd move him on asap. He's had a handful of good performances in his time with us. He can't stay fit enough to contribute meaningfully over a season and, IMO, he's a big dip from our first choice midfield 3 anyway. Nice lad but time to let him go. He'd do great at Southampton or somewhere like that.

  34. We generally always have one injury prone player, at times we’ve had three! That reduced to one (fingers crossed) but it must be as frustrating for him as it is for the fans. i like him but I just don’t ever see him as anything but a player that is either coming back from or being injured. Whatever we do we can’t allow him near an ironing board.

  35. 2001 was a great year went to all 3 finals ,my 1st FA Cup final as well I drove down on the day didn't touch a drop just wanted to go to a cup final the lad who should have sat next to me got so pissed he missed the match ( tried to get in the Arsenal end and got twated for his troubles ) we had a bastard of a job finding him after the match as well. Great seat as well 1st row in the dip behind the goal another lad was so nervous he missed the 2 owen goals and on the journey back kept asking us how he scored them got back into work on the monday to be told that if I wanted a ticket for the final in Dortmund it was mine free as well just had to shell out for the flight, flew out on the Wednesday and got ferried all round that part of Germany by the German arm of the company including lunch in a swanky restaurant in Cologne right by the Rhine just a fantastic week in general winning both cups obviously helped as well .

  40. Had a brilliant night out in St. Petersburg last year. Quite possibly avoided being murdered and robbed by the skin of my teeth about six times. Started drinking some yard long beers in a bar with work colleagues, went somewhere else with two women to drink shots, headed for home but got picked up by two other women (in hindsight not pillars of the community), went to some other bars, quite possibly got drugged, had my laptop taken out of my bag but caught the fucker and kicked off (not my style, hence the feeling I was drugged), went home with one of the women but decided against it when she started going on about cash payment. Got in a car with a random bloke who said he’d take me home, realised this was a bad plan when he started driving in the opposite direction, jumped out at the traffic lights as he tried to pull me back, discussed a potential ride home on a horse which led to nothing. Bare in mind, this is just the stuff I do remember. There are a lot of blanks. Bizarrely there are some photos of that night I can show. The only thing this adds to the poisoning discussion is that at no point during the evening did I consume tea. As a result, I’m still around to tell the tale. Don’t drink tea in Russia.
