  1. Exactly, but in the minds of the shite it means this, apply the 30 point deduction to this season? GOT at it's finest. Arsenal would have finished the closest, only 3 points above the drop (61 to 31) Top 7 would have been Leicester - 66 West Ham - 65 Leeds - 59 Us - 59 City - 56 Villa - 55 Newcastle 45 United would have finished below Wolves, Liverpool below Palace, Southampton and Brighton and Chelsea, Spurs and Arsenal all below Burnley
  2. Can't ever remember them having any best players, had loads who where/are better than our best players.
  3. Oh my aching sides. You don't have to be a winner .... Any talk of moyes having a glass ceiling is absolute nonsense talk and this myth about him not being able to win trophies. Of course he had a glass ceiling when he was last here. The big 4 at the time were on a different planet with their budget and he constantly had to sell his best players year on year so the gap between us and the big 4 at the time was like that of the Premier league and championship. He effectively won the league for us 3 or 4 times in what was realistic by finishing 5th multiple times and 4th once.
  4. Nice one mate, my memory fuckin sucks.
  5. Don't think it was, I was in the road end. Wasn't that the year of sunken drains or some shit? Think we played first six? Games away which unbelievably also impacted on the shite being, well shite, as does everything else. If you know yer istory and all that.
  6. All kicking off on the Nuno thread on GOT, funny as fuck with mods involved, inappropriate behaviour. I'm in even more now
  7. Salivating. If only Turkey did chippies.
  8. Hmmm, not sure about Nuno. Team looked good at first and gave us a game, slipped badly now. Perfect match for the shite, I'm in.
  9. Remember similar was said eighteen months ago. Head only got reattached yesterday.
  10. Yes I share a lot of those views. I have been very defensive of Ancelotti, partly because I think the points he's got are better than the league position but partly because in general I think we turn on managers a bit quickly and I am in favour of giving people time. But the doubts certainly started to creep in for me. I kind of felt we had got to a bit of a fork in the road. One way was the way Ancelotti wanted to go, the other was the way the club probably needs to go if it wants to move in a sustainable direction. I don't think there was anyone in the club who was able/prepared to stand up to Ancelotti and say no, and the concern was that we may have gone further down a rabbit hole. There is a chance of a re-set now, and the positive is it's not a re-set in mid season with us in or around the relegation zone which leads to a short termism. We finished 30 points above 18th (twice as high) last season so to me there is no excuse for a pragmatic choice of coach. I understand the criticism of Brands, but this has to be his moment to stamp his authority on the club as to what we want to do moving forward. Selecting a coach that fits that brief becomes important. I think overall we are all a bit guilty of a bit of an old fashioned outlook, that getting the biggest name manager is how you turn a club around. What you really need is a good process, a process that makes sense for where you sit and the to be consistent and patient with it. The alternative was Ancelotti was going to be to gamble again. Gamble on 2 or 3 players who will offer nothing in terms of "sell on" in the hope we could gate crash the top 4. He reckons they will get 35 mill compo, fuckin loony
  11. The unfuniest bunch of posters you can ever read. Full on fuckin weirdos.
  12. And I thought their care in the community was going so well.
  13. Never tire seeing it, superb stuff as was many of his others. Oh for a midfielder who could do that,
  14. The quality of the goals is so unreal the shite are most probably voting on them
  15. Ha ha, great story. Yea, kissing and hugging people you don't know. Fuck Covid the dirty horrible bastard.
