Radish isn’t cockney, anymore than I am or even claim to be. Other than that, good point well made, pillock.

Legend, one of my favourite players this century, would love him back as coach one day. But, his subsequent performances for West Ham proved we got rid of him at exactly the right moment.

Give it a rest you radish

I keep reading this pony. Do people really believe sides can go round secretly watching other sides shape, formations, set piece routines etc a day or two before they play them? You’d be done exactly the same way as Leeds were, under the “good faith” rules.

He was hopeless. Only got the leadership because of who he wasn’t rather than who he was. A party of Hestletine, Clarke, Lawson, Howe, and other capable men, ended up with that no mark as leader.

I would like to have answers to more questions before I change mine. 3 I can think of off the top of my head. The initial response of “lone wolf” & lying to the EFL seriously undermined us from minute one. Was this based on anything Tonda said, did he lie to Parsons when first asked about it. The panel unimpressed with this. Did he really think it was against the rules, or was this a lie. The panel were unimpressed with this as well. Why the fuck hasn’t he released a statement, even if it’s just a holding bland, “feel your pain” type. Maybe lawyers/LMA involved, but if not, this shows a lack of character. I’d also like to know more around the bullying claims. Not the actual bullying, it’s a man’s world, but what was the specific push back from the victim. Was it “I’m not doing this because it’s against the rules”, if so, it’s criminal he didn’t go and check or at least cover his tracks and stop doing it. Or was he too arrogant to think he was on the wrong path.

What £200 million? You’ve been in the public sector too long… It’s pretty irrelevant anyway, he’s going to get a ban. Deciding whether to keep him or not, is like me deciding whether I’ll give it to Sydney Sweeney doggy style or reverse cowgirl. We won’t get the option.

Used to go to the south of France every year staying on campsites, having 4 kids it was a lot cheaper than package holidays. There were a few companies then keeping the costs down, we found one Euro Sites, which used to buy pitches off Key camp outside of school holidays, and re sell them cheaper. You didn’t get fined by the schools either then. Now it only seems to be Euro camp and prices are astronomical (we looked at taking grand kids). For families it was great, kids were doing football, tennis, swimming etc clubs, messing around with friends, just came back for quick BBQ before disappearing again. Loads of different nationalities and we always went end of June beginning of July, so World Cup/Euros would be on some years. Tents already up, so no divorce activity beforehand, but we then started to upgrade to mobile homes. The oldest kids are nearly 40 now, and they still go on about the great times. Meet people we’re still friends with. Really cheap holidays, decent facilities and great Mediterranean weather 90% of the time.

The club will have planned for losing in the playoffs, who would go and who they’d want/be able to keep. The spanner in the works is blokes we’d clearly be able to keep using spygate, or more likely their agents using spygate, to manipulate a way out or get a premium for staying. It may also encourage sides to take the piss and try and nick a couple on the cheap. It’s the ones we probably would have ditched had we won promotion that worry me. Manning, Fellows, Wellington, Flynn Downs, Matsuki, wood, even Azaz, are they going to think fuck this, and want to move on. Larin, another one, will he be up for another shot, and more importantly, will he play at the same level. Let’s get Bree done now. We can’t be rebuilding from scratch, and we may need to dig our heals in over a couple and tell them they’re not going anywhere. THB, Jander, Charles and obviously, Peretz, we probably planned for. I’d ask Leo to stay and reassess in winter window agreeing a move if we’re not in or amongst the autos, and that would be it, outside of the Archers & Edozies of the world. If Baz is in nets, god help us. So we need keeper, centre half, centre midfield, starters. Top championship quality, to slot straight in to a good side. Then use the loan market for an Archer replacement, and another CM.

Dear God, no. He’s fucking pony.

No fucking chance

I don’t think football bans quite work like that.

Whose fault is it that we’re starting on minus 4?

Wait until the FA ban him, they’ll be all out in force again. Bielsa wasn’t banned, we didn’t gain an advantage, a bloke on the FA meet “Gibbo” once, there’s an agenda against Saints, everyone does it daily and twice on a Thursday, and the DFB wouldn’t have banned him in Germany.

Gambling debts and bookmakers owing you money used to be debts of honour, so were unenforceable by law. I’m not sure if they still are, as it’s not so shady nowadays.
