Hi Tricky Trevor, I remembered a fellow Claret mentioning possible money laundering but couldn't recall who. There does seem to be a ...pattern of sorts, doesn't there? This one makes no sense.I don't know how he got on at Leicester last season but why would Brighton loan him to Chelsea? Chelsea un...

To be fair, my lower extremeties had a significantly better taste profile than the Brussels Sprouts.

And you get 10 new potatoes and only two Brussels sprouts. Different numbers of potatoes may be available near Ewood.

Mockneys as well.

But that was the only song they did that was any good, so just fade it out 3 seconds before the end.

Rather liked the "you're getting trolled in the morning" chant. I'm not sure the armchair man u types will wait that long though.

I heard that they decided that they couldn't afford to be a yoyo club (well that might well be true after they didn't yo last season. Hence they decided that they were safer becoming a championship equivalent of Brighton and Brentford, aiming to buy young talent, develop and then sell for profit. Th...

SW v DL going to pennies

How funny was that?

Calvert-lewin misses several chances in time added on and then his penalty so far over the bar. Farke's face was cut to each time and he's clearly thinking What the f have you given me?
I can't remember such a one sided pen shoot out.

I understand everything that you are saying. BUT are you also saying they shouldn't have a realistic time scale on anyone's application? If that's the case why bother giving a time scale in the first place as they did in my case. They raised my expectations by saying when I sent my application in J...

Newcastle have made their position clear, so opting to put in a formal request isn't relevant here. Save that it makes isak look like a petulant child kicking his feet because he can't get sweets without saying please.

That does seem like an interminably long time, Fd. I moved in May having started the conveyancing process in late January. So around 13 weeks to completion.

I was at a local league game today. The ref did the 5 second countdown which everyone could hear. left me wondering if there was a better way in the league grounds, PA or something.

Here's another reason for them to be upset.

I was at their last match of last season. OK ground for that level. Their strikers were good but I think they were both loanees, and they were made to look good by our (merthyr) decision to give all the squad players a game as we were on the beach. But, they did fantastic burgers. Huge, bursting ful...

I've heard it makes Mr Brady look like a complete cu next Tuesday. Looking forward to watching it actually 😁 Not an American football fan then?

Novotel in saarbrucken. Yes, they are all roughly the same, but that one was just perfect, and I probably gained half a stone before leaving.

I don't think the competition has much of a future to be honest. It looked for a time as if they might have to invite teams from the level below as clubs pulled out - Altrincham, Carlisle, Yeovil, York, Eastleigh all said no thanks. And most of the conference sides that do take part take the compet...

If they are going to change the rules, I'd rather they allowed the keeper to come charging off his line as soon as a kick taker stops or stutters or deliberately slows down in his run up.

timshorts

So when it hits the post bounces onto the back of the keeper and into the net, that won't be a goal?

Changin g a rule that doesn't need changing seems very wengerish.

Another shite penalty. This time from Spain. Ha. Sure they will be able to fall over for a few more.

Would you prefer to have a bit more time to get served, enjoy a drink and talk about the 1st half before returning to the stand for the 2nd half? No. For a good part of the season, the weather is miserable, with freezing temperatures made worse by wind and rain. 10 minutes was fine. They still have...

Netherlands v France, probably. Wales will lose and I don't really want to listen to 90+ more minutes of how wonderful England women are after the previous performance. Start danielle vdd. Please.

It's got nothing at all to do with who finished where. According to Palace the contract they had with Textor proved they haven't broken the rules. The rule states that you only break it if the person involved in the multi club has influence, according to Palace the contract with Textor was 43%* and...

Wilson to West ham will be fine.

Howe kept wheeling him out to try and get some landmark goal (100 for united, maybe), but he never looked like scoring - not even close. Osula is likely now ahead of him in the pecking order. I thought he might end up somewhere like stoke or Norwich for a year.

Good. Chelsea and Pedro seem made for each other. I can't really see how he could have passed Eddie howe's "no dickheads" rule.

Unfortunately you probably won't hear from the FA as generally they are under resourced and have to prioritise what they deal with, and some County FA's (i.e. Sussex down where I am) are pretty shocking at responding in my experience (Surrey FA who I mainly deal with are thankfully quite good, but ...

He was only there for a year. The equivalent would be his playing for Stockbridge park steels.

Not at all. Not discounting him. But the reality is Lampard, Scholes, De Bruyne were the main men in incredible teams. That elevates them for me.

Quite.

Alonso made him look good, but didn't get similar plaudits bexause he was Spanish not scouse. I'd pick Alonso over him any day.
