REDKNAPP: Oh, you lot must be missing us! It's criminal we aren't allowed to cover this tournament. Bladdy foreigners - they're spoiling it for us! We'd come in, right, and keep all the magic of the World Cup, right, but take out all the foreigners, right - apart from the foreigners who play in England, cos they're sort of honorary English anyway, right, and then we'd have a bladdy brilliant World Cup that was almost as good as the Champions league and all that! GRAY: And I can assure you, heh heh heh, we certainly wouldn't be wasting your time with any of that 'educational' stuff! No, no, no! We'd be concentrating on the BIG PICTURE: when managers use subs, who heads the ball nearly as well as me, players with the funniest names, where me and Mr Tyler had dinner, etc etc. And I'd have ma tactics board, with all the blue and red discs on it, and everything. You're missing a TREAT! STELLING: And where are the puns? Where ARE the strange EMPHASES on ranDOM words in EVERY sentence? Where are the jokes with Merse and Le Tiss? Where are the crucial stats about when the last time someone who had a name that sounded a bit like 'Ray' mistimed a free kick in the eleventh minute? This must be TORTURE for you! KEYS: And where is the 3-D? This is football. It's a business, not a sport. Forget all of that nonsense about social and cultural aspects. I've shaved my hands for this. This is valuable commercial air time! We could be selling you packages. I call on the Prime Minister to hand all the coverage over to Sky! End this madness NOW!!

Lineker always asks the stupidest of questions. They're the verbal equivalent of badly-hit back passes.

Rivaldo = karma.

Sort of proves my point: did some decent things but he gets away with loads of self-admiring tosh and illogical claptrap because he inspires complete uncritical reverence among some. It's probably a feudal thing revived by his posh accent. With Brazil 1970 and maybe 1982 obscure every moment of dullness they create.

That's what he just twittered, was it!
-
They're the Stephen Fry of football.
-
It's strange football Brazil play these days - lots of nothing punctuated by nice goals.
-
Yes.
-
Cesar will soon be wearing a bloody cardigan the way he's going with all those layers, the big fop.
-
Watching Brazil these days is like having your thought processes choreographed by Ray Wilkins. I want them beaten!
-
Garth Crooks - apart from the absurd pomposity, the faux intellectualism, the risibly mannered interviewing style and the painful prose - he's really fucking weird, isn't he?
-
Ha ha, yes!
-
Yes, and on top of all the other nonsense the wanker has the nerve to say he's missing his wife and family!
-
Yes, I bet it'll sound just like The Troggs Tapes.

Double negative of the thread.

Bruvvers, if he goes we cannot je-opordise our 'boycott the new shirt' initiative by burning a new shirt, and we cannot risk undermining our 'use your old shirt' initiative by burning an old shirt, so I have tabled a motion for our next meeting - which will require a quota vote - calling for the special commissioning of a special organic jojoba-based 'Gerrard Shirt' which we can then go ahead and burn in the safe knowledge that by doing so we will not be contravening any ruling of either our committee or sub-committee regarding the use or abuse of tainted club merchandise in ancillary disputes between the fans and specific players.

He's got very good potential to improve both as a straight defender and as an attack-minded defender, but his stagnation at Anfield suggests either (a)he's not been coached properly or (b) he has but he's thick. All the bad habits, including the 'jump up and drape yourself over the shoulders of the opponent' move he's made his own, are just as bad now as they were when he arrived (in fact, I wonder if they may have grown worse).

Here's Craig (Lovely bloke, by the way, as genuine as they come): BBC Sport - Football - World Cup 2010: Boot designer Craig Johnston slams ball

Gerrard's missus in the paper this morning: 'I'm concentrating on getting fit for our family holiday'. It's another world, ain't it? It's a HOLIDAY, luv!
-
That linesman looks like Stelios. Is he trying to launch EasyRef?
-
I knew this would happen: Gerrard refuses to discuss LFC because it might affect his form, and then plays far, far, better than last time, thus attracting this kind of attention. Curses!
-
Our own Craig Johnston was on MOTD last night, giving a brief but passionate critique of the ball. I suspect Seedorf's claim that you just adapt is quite right, but Craig certainly sounded like he knew what he was talking about when he said how shite the ball was.
-
Oh, he's one all right.

Dunk's amazing in his own grotesque little way. It's the incredible seriousness he exhibits, as if he's mulling over secrets from the White House, that gets me. It's weirdly compulsive. And of course it makes him even more punchable than before, and that's an achievement of sorts.
-
The irony is that Duncan Oldham has managed, in that strange dream world of his, to announce that this 'secret' bidder has pissed off, causing poor Dunk much sadness, and the Big Man has moved on to discuss another Indian bidder. See his latest YouTube bulletin, which is a Pinteresque classic of long pauses, face rubbing and portentous sighs. So it would be hilarious if, by some cosmic twist in logic, he's managed to lie himself out of the truth. But we're all surely so past rumours, aren't we? Facts are the only thing to take seriously after all we've been through.
