  1. In March 2017 WBA attained a position of absolute safety, almost respectability, in the EPL. The players minds went onto the beach and they hardly won a game the rest of the season. I reckoned the slide would become unstoppable. At the start of this season they were my prediction for relegation (to the incredulity of fellow poster Gribz) and lo it has come to pass. All down to the players, I’m afraid, but an experienced bloke like Pardew should never have allowed the Barcelona cantrips to have happened. The damage was done long before then, however. Pity because I like the Albion.
  2. Strange, but I know what you mean.
  3. I like City from the old Trautmann cup final in which Bobby Johnstone also played and also Mercer’s fabulous team 1968.
  4. Never heard of this chap but if he’s somehow offending timothy he must be doing something right.
  5. City destroyed Everton in under forty minutes with breathtaking football which drew admiring gasps from Evertonians in the stands. Sublime. They then retained possession with countless passes the length and breadth of the park for the rest of the game without seriously attempting to score. Christ, it was boring. A less polished spectacle, blood and guts, up and at ‘em, get wired in, thrills and spills would have been much more exciting but I am a dinosaur struggling in an age of sophistication. I didn’t suppose City fans could care less.
  6. I think Ross was a probable for the World Cup until the SNP cry-babies whined so much about neglect of parliamentary duties that he pulled out. Imagine if it had been one of their own. Great honour for Sco’lan’. Best wee linesman nation in the world etc
  7. Unless the buyer is celtic in which case £750,000 should do it although publicised at £7M. After all, when lennon ends up succeeding Rogers on the emerald throne, he’ll want his trusty midfielder available.
  8. “ Neither England or Italy are that good, they're not brilliant, and I don't even expect either of them will make the quarter finals in Russia” A tenner says Italy will neither score nor concede in this year’s World Cup in Russia. What odds will you give me on that?
  9. He must have gone to Hull because he couldn’t get the qualifications for Napier or Caley. (Thats the yoonie not the self-styled football club)
  10. Moult played very well against Rangers but my granny might have done all right against Rangers’ central defence and she’s not a good player.
  11. All of this is very interesting but we’re wandering off topic namely the corrupt gallusness of Pacific Quay Shamrock.
  12. The accent qualification sounds good. On that basis Joe Baker could have played for Scotland but, eventually, Denis Law would have been dropped.
  13. Pathetic, but that’s the caley for you.
  14. I’d forgotten him but I remember him now. He was a farmer in Derbyshire, was he not? Who’s this Walsh guy?
  15. Ah, Methil. The only place where I’ve seen a black beach. And Father Quinn. Did he play for EF? My last memory of him was at Hibs. Very good player in a terrific forward line at Motherwell.
  16. Better than Cammy Bell but much less competent than Woods or Klos and without the match-saving genius of the goalie or even, to a lesser extent, McGregor. Alexander was a better ‘keeper.
  17. Not gutted. Unlike Neil Lennon.
  18. True but you go to see the game, not the grass. Looked like a good surface. Just lose the fancy bits.
  19. If you go about on the streets with a mask you’ve obviously got some very important statement to make and people should pay attention to you especially if you’ve got a spanking new pair of white trainers like the young chap front middle of the picture.
  20. That striped pitch is bloody annoying.
  21. Murty suffers from the handicap of having no on-field driver. No Shearer, Greig, Brown or Ian Ferguson. Doesn’t have to be the captain. More like a foreman who gets other guys to roll up their sleeves and fight ‘til the day is done.
  22. Gordon Brown the Scottish lock forward did weeks of recuperative training at Ibrox. One day he took in a rugby ball. Greig proceeded to hammer “conversions” between the sticks, over the bar and miles up into the terracing. Brown was well impressed. Maybe this is what DJ was referring to.
  23. Was he not one of the heroes of the shamrock in that noble non-defeat at the hands of the Gallic billionaires? Neymar was scared stiff if I remember correctly.
  24. Tory giving Rangers an advantage. Irresistible to the jocko press.
