How far up Toney's arse was Martin Keown's tongue on MOTD? Unreal.

The usual >3 mins MOTD before lets talk about the game tomorrow

The co/commentator was just saying that goal was going to propel Utd into 4th spot

Most Mexican food here (and in the US) is about as Chinese as what we get in our Chinese takeaways.

I agree about African food in though.

Currently in Santa Fe New Mexico. The food is absolutely incredible. (Look away @mjmooney ) but we had a table-side guacamole a few nights ago and I could have just happily eaten that for my meal.

Main course was stuffed sopapilla (with spiced ground beef) smothered in melted cheese, red and green chile, rice, beans and salad. Delicious! (Admittedly more of a southwestern New Mexico dish than Mexican)

Just like the book then? Solid start then a descent into nonsense. 

I haven't read it - but I agree with your point. Very solid start - could have gone any way and chose the worst and most boring/stupid.

One thing I have heard several people say is that the world would be safer with Trump in charge of the US because he’s fearless and would definitely use nukes.

I have no idea how that translates into the world being safer.

The irony is that (for anyone with a brain) Trump is a coward. He's the archetypal bully - and underneath it all is living a terrified coward. 

He's lived off daddie's money his whole life and is deeply insecure.

He's the worst kind (an irredeemable, selfish, narcissist) coward, and if it came to actually protecting the American people if the US was threatened, I have absolutely no doubt that he would do whatever it takes to save himself and throw everyone under the bus/bomb to do so.

That’s what I thought.

Appreciate that is just my experience! We're just a bunch of bankers anyway

 

I think you’ve made a typo there Alex

It is just a bit of fun guys. At the moment we are just getting a polished up VP in the coming seasons, it is what's on the pitch that matters anyway.

It's fun to speculate for sure. It's like the transfer thread - we know 98% of it'a not happening because you can't have a new stadium and loan Januzaj

Building costs do not count towards FFP anyway.

I know. My point was that we wouldn't have the billion pound debt and interest that Spurs now have.

Also cons - the perfect site (the one that was once earmarked for a new national stadium) is gone to HS2, the sites on the city side of the site are already in plan for a huge housing development as the NEC site is owned by the worlds biggest landlord, Blackstone - so any site at the NEC wouldn't be within easy walking distance of the train station and would require new roads, new car parking and potentially a new motorway junction - we often talk about the NEC as if it's an easy site with a perfect pocket of connected land; it's not.

 

If the land top the east of the NEC is for HS1, what is the land east of Middle Bickenhall Lane earmarked for? From the satellite pics it looks like industrial land (so potentially available to purchase.)

Room enough for a state of the art stadium and you could have some sort of Wembley/Villa way paved walk path/bridge to and from the HS2 station.

and massive debt and interest payments for a very long time.

Not if another of NWSE companies pay for it and lease it to AVFC.

Irrelevant

Yeah we're going to win especially if he takes Poney cause he can take a penalty (where is James Ward-Prowse then?)

I honestly think it's because Toney is already nailed on to sign for a Sky 6 team and the media and Nosegate know that so they are just kissing the arse that feeds them

Extrapolate 4 wins out of 26 against FIFA top 10 ranked teams over a season in the PL (where any team can beat you) thats a win every 6.5 games.

With 38 games in season thats (5.84) or say 6 wins - 18 points.

I'll be really generous and say 10 draws on top of that.

(Remember this is with one of the top 3 squads in the world.)

Which means he'd get 28 points with one of City, Plop or Arsenal 

I wish for nothing more than for Manure to hire him!

Edit: FFS page break ruined my post!

Played 26 games against FIFA top 10 ranked team

4 wins

Like I said earlier in the thread, the Upshot did a piece about how unpopular he was at Dortmund as he was a complete cock and apparently the club told the senior players they had two big sales that summer, him or Reus (if memory recalls). To a man they said Bellingham as he was such an arrogant annoying character. And by all accounts he's put senior players noses out already at Madrid to the point Ancelotti has had to lay the law down regards his attitude. Proper full of himself. Mate.

Do you have a link?

Thats down to Ollie's persistance

Oh Ollie play to the whistle. That was in a beauty of a position for you to lash that into the top corner rather than stop and please for the free kick.

He was offside thats why he left the ball

2 games, no open play goals. Can't get by Vertonghen who is 37 next month.

So much selfish play IMO. Especially from Bellingham

Just now, Villan_of_oz said:

It is not too late to sack him, and bring in a competent manager.... 

I'd have Harry Rednapp. At least he'd take the handbrake off

Declan Rice didn't even track Youri just let him run past him. 

Gomes was nowhere to be seen either

Beautiful one touch footy from Belgium
