"If you continue to do the job then you haven't retired even if it is at a lower level. Especially when still being paid!" Doing the job at a lower level - tick. Being paid - tick. MLG fail again. Being a pedantic arsehole and derailing threads is fun. I can see why you do it.

Paid by Paddy Power to appear. So got paid. Another MLG fail!

Presumably Fat Ronaldo isn't retired then as he recently played a few mins in the Essex League Division 8?

Cooper. History of getting clubs promoted and builds teams worth more than the sum of their parts - Leicester should have stuck with him and they might have had a chance to stay up.

If he was clearly interfering why did they spend so fucking long on the first check? Desperate to find a way to rule it out.

What time did you start drinking?

If you're not pissed off at how this season is going, no one should be taking you seriously.

When I go back to work tomorrow and do absolutely nothing all day, or actively make it clear I don't care about the company, if anyone pulls me up on it I'll be making sure they know I think they're entitled and overreacting.

Has anyone said it after today's performance.....good feet for a big man!

In all fairness the first two were enforced, Lallana & TP were having decent games until the injuries. TP for a defensive midfielder was an odd one though.

Get in, great goal!!!

I'm watching on Brazilian TV and they compared him to Ronaldinho after that pass 😂

Time to shut up now mate.

Not really "woulds", getting dicked by United and beat by Newcastle was what actually happened.

I've bought loads of shirts of dubious provenance over the years, most hold up as well as the proper ones but generally I'd not go for the name/number as they don't last many washes.

On my stream the taters mentioned that Forest hadn't kept a clean sheet away from home since October 2023. If we couldn't even make a decent chance against a team with that record then a serious rethink is needed. Hopefully Martin realises that and adapts his philosophy (won't happen).

Not only a crap result but what a boring game to watch. Echoing others though, Dibling looks a good positive player, with driving forward runs like Alcaraz. Would love to see him start although not convinced his style (like Alcaraz') fits Martinball.

Good stuff. Although I won't be holding my breath.

So it was a pointless comment which added no value then, thanks for that.

Age 20 and with 63 appearances, are you sure your fake mate knows what he's talking about?

I asked my Flamengo supporting mate, he said: "He reminds me of Paqueta, but without the dribbling. He is less skillful but with a lot of game awareness." Just got to hope he doesn't also like a flutter 😬

And out of those combined 99 games, how many times have you seen them break into a sweat? Technically they may improve. But if they are this complacent/lazy at the start of their careers when they should be champing at the bit to get out there and show what they can do, there's little chance of an attitude change.

Cheers for that insight mate, I can see why you're a well respected poster on here.

Blimey. Very surprised how blasé people are in this thread noting that a person has died and two are critical. Regardless of whether you like the fella or not, this is a dire state for the democracy of the world's leading power to be in. I'd like to think we're better than this over here, and when (for example) Jo Cox/ David Amiss was murdered there was only condemnation and no points scoring. We desperately need to keep it that way. Under no circumstances do we want our politics to become as polarised and aggressive as they are over the pond.
