  1. Every where outside the British press, where there’s a legal agreement, these things have been covered for a few years. This is the second/third affair, but this one has the added spice that he loves being shafted by his wife’s mate every other Thursday. They literally have a vice like grip on the law and media in this land and people get uppity when things about the inbred thieving lizards emerge? Maybe there’s always been a problem with them and it’s always been covered up.
  2. I broke my ribs earlier in the summer so I’m using cycling as my exercise and planning routes out as I can’t do ‘normal’ exercise yet. Its been lovely.
  3. Cancelo is a brilliant footballer. After the previous 426 left backs they’ve bought it looks like they’ve finally got a good one.
  4. Haha Pep and his band of mercenaries don’t bother to collect the runner up medals. If anything say modern City more I’m yet to find it. Cunts.
  5. I still maintain that he’d have scored more than Balotelli, Lambert and Borini in that season combined if he’d laced his boots up.
  6. I fucking love how Ian Rush just earns a living being the absolute legend that is Ian Rush.
  7. Wait, that’s not right. They also have a version of Allez which celebrates a Liverpool fan getting badly beaten and that one that goes ‘City, City, the best football team in the land’ which doesn’t rhyme, have rhythm or scan and is fucking awful. Give ‘em some credit, they’re new to this.
  8. What kind of sociopath cuts apples like that?
  9. Went on a bike ride through London to pick up some beers for the unmentionable. Started in Maida Vale then through Little Venice, St Johns Wood, down through Camden and up through Islington, then Dalston and finally Hackney and then back again. Lovely day just watching the style of clothing changing on the pretty women wandering around oblivious to how much more attractive the sun makes everyone. Glorious.
  10. Totally forgot this... So 1526 minutes played in total all season. @Strontium Came closest.
  11. Not down with that old hokey stuff, but some of the modern Southern Gothic/Americana is great…
  12. Yeah, maybe. I think it’s for naught though as unless something ridiculous happens this is our squad for the season.
  13. We only really have Keita, Chamberlain, Phillips and possibly Gomez who we'd let go if the price was right, obviously replacements pending. That's how good a job the recruitment team have done over the past few years.
  14. Big fucking news from the theatre of bleak, horrowing reality... Imagine him showing Rapey Ron how to stick it in the onion bag? Amazing.
  15. *Brexit Bonus Claxon* 'Zara is charging British shoppers as much as 50% more than in Spain, while Decathlon partly blames Brexit for markups on e-bikes that can be up to £250 pricier in the UK than in France. The figures come from a snapshot survey by Guardian Money that examined prices of popular items at pan-European retailers including Ikea, Apple, JD Sports, and H&M, as well as Zara and Decathlon. It compared prices in the UK, Germany, France, Spain, Italy and Ireland. It found that while at some retailers, such as JD Sports, prices are broadly similar across Britain and the EU countries, at others prices in the UK are markedly higher. None of the retailers had generally lower prices in the UK. The findings add another twist to the current UK cost of living crisis. Zara, Europe’s biggest clothing retailer, has some of the biggest percentage price differentials between the UK and the rest of Europe. A British shopper pays £49.99 for a linen blend tunic dress at one of Zara’s stores in the UK, equal to €58.70 at current exchange rates. But at Zara in Germany, France, Italy and Ireland, the price is €49.95, and in Spain only €39.95. A men’s hoodie that sells for £45.99 in the UK, equal to €53.99, sells for only €35.95 (£30.62) in Spain, meaning a buyer in Manchester is charged 50% more than in Madrid for the identical item. Decathlon, the French sports goods retailer that operates 2,000 stores across 56 countries, charges £1,299.99 for a Riverside electric bike in its UK stores, equal to €1,525. But in France, Spain and Italy, the price for the same item is €1,199. The e-bike buyer at Decathlon’s Brighton store is therefore paying €326 (£278) more than if they popped across the channel and bought it in Dieppe.' https://www.theguardian.com/money/2022/jul/30/brexit-uk-shoppers-pay-more-eu-zara-ikea-decathlon There's loads more to the article as well. Glory be, to Brexitannia!
  16. Oh, come on that's harsh. We all saw the potential in the unholy triumvirate of Adam, Downing and Carroll. Ball pinged out to Downing on the wing, quick cross to the Geordie goon to nod home the exact same goal eighty times that season. It was a great plan, barring the fact that Carroll was injured, drunk and shite, Downing was fucking useless and Adam was gassed from about the fifth minute.
