    Mixed feelings on this. Fully appreciate you posted this in good faith and with the best of intentions and I respect the sentiment, but he is still alive. Deteriorating of course and I wouldn't want to underplay what he and his family will be going through, it's a very hard transition to make and I wouldn't want to speculate one way or the other over how much life he or anyone else will have left on this spinning orb - but he's not dead. I think a minute of anything before kick-off would be a bit premature and maybe a bit rough for his family and friends, not to mention Sid if he happens to tune in to any coverage of the game. Clear from what Collymore wrote that although he's getting worse, there's still an awareness there. I would say a gesture like this is best kept for a future date when it will be a lot more meaningful and even more sad tbh. Again, without speculating at all.

    He is the prime example of why international caps are **** meaningless and amount to nothing. His legacy as a Villan, on the other hand, will live on forever. Sad news today.

    Symbolic charges are no charges at all. Joke
  4. est1874
    How is that even feasible? What are the charges intended to achieve then?

    Don't understand the calls to move the club out of Aston. People might not love the area but it's in the name. It's where we're from. You might as well move us to London or north towards Manchester as to Solihull or Sutton Coldfield. This whole debate is moot anyway. The club have made it clear there is no discussion of a new stadium at all. We're staying, might as well try to improve VP and the surrounding area as much as we can.

    Not going to happen though is it? Why would anyone travel to Birmingham to go watch American football? Not enough people travel in for actual football as it stands.

    Amen!

    I mean, we have our own clone of him in Matty Cash...

    Haha. He's a goblin and the majority are finally (finally) realising.

    Nothing against Toney? Let's be honest the man is a rocket polisher.

    In general this is true but getting to and from the Emirates is a cinch when you consider the capacity. Think that's the exception though in my experience

    Morgan Gibbs-White. Because apparently even average footballers get to be known by acronyms alone these days. "Ubiquitous" he is not. Nor is he worth selling one of our two best academy products in 20+ years, or possibly ever.

    The **** St George's cross flag was Italian before it was English anyway. The divs

    Jaysis, so we did! Apologies to the OP, could've sworn he (Kamara) came in after Gerrard's time. Shows what direction my senile memory is going.
  16. est1874
    How are you reporting this as fact? It's not at all provable that this was the case. Pretty sure Gerrard bought him for depth as cover for Luiz and/or McGinn in the roles Gerrard was deploying them. This was long before Kamara came in remember.

    Wow, I'm so surprised

    Jesus Christ. Great start to the internationals.

    Jesus. The logo does look like an arse, and now I cannot unsee.

    Southgate is a clearing in the woods and remains a failed manager, I can only presume anyone defending him has been lobotomized.

    Currently scheduled for 4 days before the season starts. Heck claiming this as a marked improvement
  22. est1874
    We are not as good as we think we are.
  23. est1874
    I'm willing to accept spanking Spurs as his pre-interview for the role.
  24. est1874
    God bless Fulham

    I enjoy the fact that gambling is the fashionable vice to pile on, but we're OK with alcohol sponsors on shirts again. Jesus.
