Re: David Moyes sacked thread

As mentioned elsewhere but worth repeating here, last time a long standing Man U manager retired (busby) they chopped and changed a few new ones and then got relegated. Here's hoping.

Are you talking about F1 or Newcastle United?

I want to see more than one team with a chance of actually winning a race, don't really care who finishes eighth.

Re: Pards blames press for fans' hostility. Any better reaso

Only the mackems below us in the form guide suggests results is a good reason. Pardew could probably get away with some measure of tactical ineptitude if he was also committed to the cause but it is painfully clear to everyone he has no loyalty or passion for the club, he's working for the yankee ...

Re: The F1 Thread

F1 without the noise is like football without the crowd. Dull.

It also strikes me as odd that everyone is having a w*** over 'a great race' when it was nothing of the sort. Switch Mercedes for Red Bull and another yawnfest is on the cards only this time the plucky Brit is in with a shout. Pip pip.

Me, motoGP is the same, they sound s*** as well. I don't know what Bernie's going to do but if he gets a whiff that people are switching off he'll do something.

Re: Weekend Football



He's not as bad as Suarez but definitely up there at the Joe Hart sort of level.

Hart's got nice hair though. And Suarez is easily the best player in the EPL, better than Bale was.

On topic, the worrying development this weekend is Chelsea. Don't want them winning the league, f***ing w ...

Re: The Kinks or The Rolling Stones

Stones have synergy like all the best bands. Individually they are twats but together they're good. Still haven't made a decent song since 1981 mind.

Best song is paint it black.

That wasn't the point of your nit-picking though. This is what happened:

1). DarrasHallStalker said about Rooney, and I quote, "He's not even a very good player.

This is even when 94 goals/assists in 111 games really isn't that far off and still proves fine well that he's a good ...

Of course you need respect in rugby, it is near enough a mass brawl as it is without players telling each other and the Ref to **** off.

The old adage applies, 'rugby is a hooligans game played by gents', and football vice versa.

The interesting thing about this incident is that Saint-Andre agrees ...

Yes it is. We don't pay interest but we still have to repay the principal amount.
But I don't see any evidence of the principal amount reducing.

The attraction is he's the best we have in England set up and tbf he has never had a team built around him like Messi or Ronaldo. If he's your idea of a "not very good player", god knows what you make of Ober, Simpson etc over the years.
