  1. It’s just the typical, hackneyed “brave plucky Celts” trope that is always trotted out. That and “gave their all” - by no stretch of the imagination could you say Wales showed pride at this WC or even gave their all. They were dreadful. Euro 2016 they did superbly well but here? No. A better example, I think, would be the Faroe Islands - clearly a proud nation distinct from Denmark but not with complete sovereignty. Yugoslavia and USSR obviously competed under one banner. I’d never support a United UK team and I suspect the overwhelming majority of football fans in the four Home Nations would concur. To me, as unpalatable as us merging with the Rent Boys from the P*sspoorial Mound to form Bristol United. Would it make us more successful? Arguably. Would that be a price worth paying? Absolutely not.
  2. Desperately trying to prove how Welsh he is. Kieffer Moore couldn’t knock out a w**k.
  3. Definitely not to be taken lightly but England never beat one of the top nations (I’d include Netherlands in that bracket, three times finalists) away from Wembley and I wouldn’t be confident of breaking that habit. True, the Dutch haven’t ripped up trees but they are a much better side than what we’ve faced so far. When we’ve played less fancied countries in knockout games at the WC (Paraguay, Ecuador, Denmark, Cameroon, Colombia, Sweden) we usually find a way to go through.
  4. Have some of that, you toilet-wrecking troglodytes. So ashamed by that performance they’ll want to change their team name after this. This aged exceptionally well…
  5. Are those for sweeping all of Joey’s indiscretions under the carpet?
  6. Remember - it’s all the other clubs who have missed out, because: dA gAS aRE eVERYONE’s cUP fINAL!!!
  7. Yes - there does seem to be a dearth of “romantic” ties in recent years and the Prem team tends to get drawn at home. another underwhelming tie for City, quelle surprise. To call that a “Derby” is a bit of a stretch. True, we disike one another but neither are each team’s main rival - not sure if put hem in the top three. Sadly after the antics of their brainless fans in the league game we’re going to have to give them a bigger allocation for this one per cup rules. They’d better not play up again.
  8. Along with their FA Trophy First Round Runners Up Trophy and Blue Square Premier 12-yard Kicks Lottery Vase…
  9. Wired in? Which cowboy outfit did they use? Same one that put in the pathetic Gas shower that was improved by installation of Bath?
  10. Haha - of course it’s a shock when a team from League One lose to a side two divisions lower, you prize Gas helmet. At least he got the nice ground to visit part right though, not like that slag heap that BW probably thought is worse than most of the grounds they go to on a week to week basis. ???
  11. Actually I believe that is their club motto:- “cacas nostra braccas”
  12. I’d be surprised if 23k is correct but 21,000 is still admirable considering everyone is skint, we were absolutely cheesewater in midweek and we are close to the bottom of the table.
  13. That sums up the Rent Boys’ fan base perfectly - condoning smacking a player while slating another team’s supporters in the same breath without a hint of irony. Hypocritical flanges.
  14. The contrast isn’t actually that bad, it’s just the dim f**kwits on the terraces make it seem really bright.
  15. That really is an impressive turnout from our fans. Masochists, the lot of ya! ? Considering Cardiff are in almost an identical position to us and pulled in around 5k less.
  16. One of these clubs has been runner-up in the final of the FA Vase, the other has been runner up in the first round of the FA Trophy. Any guesses as to which is which?
  17. They’d still fill Pride Park though…
  18. Less than 9k for the Rent Boys today. Describing their support as “poor” is being very charitable.
  19. Mr Warnock is too busy trying to win re-election to the US senate for Georgia tonight so no need to worry. Arf.
  20. We aren’t showing any signs that we will get two wins any time soon. Our form and results suggest we are heading in the other direction - WBA will soon overtake us. Last season we were fortunate that our division featured a team who were crippled by a points deduction and two others who were hopelessly ill-equipped to compete at that level. The bottom three were already essentially doomed by this time last season. No such luck this time around.
