No turning back lads, Cortez the killer.

And I said "Hobo".

Good to see you back NV. You're like the forum's very own Littlest Hobo.

European Super League - where the special becomes the mundane. Proof positive that you CAN have too much of a good thing.

And he was trying his damnedest last night to make sure this would be the case.

The entire world of football would be in a far, far better state of health and be in incredibly safe hands if it just placed Jurgen Klopp in charge. Klopp is the embodiment of everything which is, or which has ever been good in the game. I hope he batters the Yanks.

Binned (again) before he could get his grubby hands on Spurs' £350m ESL budget.

It's a no from me Clive.

He is the best manager we could possibly have.

Fuck the Baltimore Rats. Go Browns. #woofwoof

I read that the ESL chosen broadcaster is DAZN?

I remember up in Scotland years ago when it seemed like every summer that both Celtic and Rangers were threatening to bin off the Scottish laegue and go it alone. Every time they'd win some concession, often money based, and the threat was staved off for another year or so. I loved it when the other teams had finally had enough and called the Old Firm's bluff, every other team resigning from the league thus leaving Celtic and Rangers in a league of two. Genius, those 2 Glasgow giants soon came crawling back to the table, tails between their legs.

Again, to his credit Carragher said that as a matter of principle he could not be involved in the proposed ESL. Neville did not. If Neville (and most of his Sky tv cronies) were offered cushy gigs by the ESL broadcasters the they'd be up there like rats up a drainpipe.

He held his hand up and recognised it. Fair play to him. Neville did not.

Neville had the cheek to say after the match that it'd all be artificial and made up from scratch, adding that they wouldn't even have a trophy to play for, that they'd need to construct a brand new one. Exactly like the Premiership then.
