  1. The thing that sprung to mind when reading this would get this topic locked and me barred but I don't think it'll take you lot long to realise what I'd like to ask about it. Oh to be a fly in the room when that kid grows up and asks why daddy's man utd career ended so quickly.
  2. Less is more. Leave it be. Same with Blackadder. 24 episodes, 1 Christmas carol and 2 one off specials. No need to do any more. Plus the end of Blackadder goes forth is the greatest TV ending in history.
  3. Course they do. Vultures. How it'll work with sky's "green" campaign I have no idea. Good luck squaring that circle with all that extra travelling, flights, fuel etc that fans all over Europe will be doing. Even better if they hold these games in Singapore, Hong Kong, LA like the original plan was.
  4. That's the thing that I never understood was that if the 6 English clubs (I'm just using them as an example from the original plan) all made it to the "top division", how would the likes of Leicester, West ham, Newcastle (???) or whoever get to take part later on? In that event, it would be ring fenced as they surely wouldn't allow it to be filled with clubs from the same league. Do they need to keep a quota for certain countries taking part?
  5. Ayew has gone to Forest. So the free transfer they were after has turned them down too ??
  6. Go back through this thread, you'll see what her dad said at the time about keeping it all hush hush. And as I said, he wouldn't be so forgiving if Mason greenwood worked at McDonald's on minimum wage. Her dad ???
  7. Toffee TV fan channel on youtube has been great entertainment the last few weeks. They were that bored on deadline day they started naming a bald everton 11 at one point. They were so so depressed that they hadn't named anyone yet they may still sign Ayew on a free which none of them are the least bit excited about.
  8. Time to reopen this bad boy from last year. Any new traditions starting this year?
  9. Too many to mention on both counts. If I had to break it down to the thinnest of margins... . . Scrooge (1951) Luitenant Kije. Troika. And Die Hard is definitely a Christmas film, as is Die Hard 2. And Batman Returns ?
  10. Fact check - wrong. ? Italy and Brazil have won back to back world cups. Granted not for a long long time. France will win this one, and the next one too. Huge strength in depth and phenomenonal young players coming through.
  11. Solid defensive midfielders are always key. That brazil side had Gilberto Silva. A fantastic player who went so far under the radar in arsenal's invincible season, its unreal. As you say, for all the players in front of him like Ronaldo, Henry, Pires, Rivaldo etc, he was the reason they were allowed to play that way because of the safety net he provided. Same with Makelele with the teams he played for.
  12. Still not watched any of it, but the memes keep me updated as to what has happened.
  13. I know I made a tounge in cheek comment in the other thread but on a proper note, I don't see what grounds they have. Fifa never authorised it. Had they done and backtracked then possibly, but even so, they can still wear it, just take a yellow card for the player wearing it. It's not an outright ban. Now if the German fa promised that they would wear in exchange for money / advertising etc then that's their problem. Not fifas.
  14. I've just seen. Tainted it. I did hear he got injured in the last bayern match. Such a shame. One of my favourite players. Yeah Fammy. Why not ?
  15. Know very little about form, who is playing who etc so this will be mega wrong. Winners - brazil Top scorer - Mane England go out in round of 16.
  16. No idea why it's done it twice
  17. Aaron Carter. Singer in his own right but known as younger bother of backstreet boy nick Carter. Died aged 34. This absolute belter from back in the day. Aaron Carter.

  18. To be fair, I boo my old work colleague whenever I see him when we meet up. Thoroughly deserved ??
  19. Absolutely. He's entitled to a fair trial to defend himself, as is everyone.
  20. Mentioned it before that there were rumours about his behaviour in 2020 which is the real reason why Southgate never selected him for England after the Iceland hotel incident which took the brunt of the blame. These go back to 2018 according to this. To think, the club knew about it all and kept it all hushed up simply because he's a valuable asset. ??
  21. I've no idea whether he's being truful, or just taking the piss. What he does is of no concern to any of us.
  22. Where's this been for the whole nations league? Take the handbreak off and play on the front foot
  23. Tomari an unused sub in Italy and not in the squad tonight. White not in the squad at all. Webster not even on Southgate's radar. Great second goal. Pressed in the right area, counter attacked in space, exceptional finish.
  24. There's already fixture congestion because of the world Cup in November with the European fixtures finishing sooner. Granted it doesn't effect us, but the league Cup may as the prem clubs in Europe will have to catch up these league games and can't do them midweek because of the European matches.
  25. I'll have to take your word for it. Personally I don't see he did anything wrong unless he had a clause in his contract saying that you're not allowed to insult a dead monarch. Maybe I'm looking at it the wrong way.
