  1. I agree, I just find the hypocrisy difficult to swallow. Hope he rots.
  2. Trying to get it thrown out on a technicality now, and also trying to avoid a hearing by saying he wasn't served correctly. Sounds like when a celeb avoids a driving ban. Get off on a technicality, but you know they're guilty as sin with regards to the actual offence.
  3. Yes, it's my surgery too. I called today to chase a prescription and got the same messages. Any way to make it harder to get in touch... Live on the North side of town, very close to the Wigginton pub.
  4. Laurel House by any chance? Been getting worse every year.
  5. It's good that it's mentioned now, I did mean during the game though, the commentators didn't make a negative comment on it. I'd be very happy if more pundits and journalists did the same as the pundits tonight.
  6. It's absolutely a disgrace that it's not commented on in either print or on TV. Agree entirely about Henderson, we could have done with him for the final 30. Not a single criticism of the lack of subs.
  7. Why is it that (nearly) everyone but the media can see that Southgate is not fit for purpose? So much criticism of him and his tactics tonight, where do you start? I just hope he's gone before some of these very young and talented players get wasted by him.
  8. Got to be the Charlton's, surely? World Cup winners. Do the Dildo bros count?
  9. Realms of fantasy now as it's getting harder not to qualify, but could you imagine if England failed to qualify for Qatar? I think we'd see the FA go into a frenzy because of all the cash and privilege they'd miss out on.
  10. Anyone played the siege of Paris expansion yet? Read some reviews which haven't been complimentary.
  11. FFP aside, I wonder if they'll do another "Welcome to Manchester" for Ronaldo like they did for Tevez... Wouldn't put it past these classless noses of the north.
  12. Will Hughes to Palace for £6m. Useful squad player, although glad we weren't in for him. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/58346821
  13. It's being reported that he's also broken ministerial code again by using government funds to procure a private jet so he could campaign in Hartlepool. The amount of crap on this guy is ridiculous, how's he still in power?!
  14. They are terrible at the back. Looks like they've given up already.
  15. In the locked Lionel Messi thread, I stated I'd donate £10 if he signed for PSG as I thought this would never happen. I was certain it was a power play against La Liga to bend the FFP rules in favour of Barca. I couldn't have been more wrong, so I gladly donated. This signing still stinks though. Oil clubs, along with Sky, have killed football for any aspirational club.
  16. Southampton fans suggest that the sale of Vestergaard is imminent, and after that they won't need to sell anyone else. Few said that JWP will be there till next season, including a BBC journo... This is just from reading a forum much like this though, so it's probably just guesswork or BS.
  17. I'd agree with this if FFP ensured that there'd be a level playing field, but we'd end up like Italy and Germany with the biggest clubs dominant. There's be no Leicester's winning the FA cup or West Ham's pushing for 4th. My choice would be to let owners spend what they like so long as the debt is not leveraged against the club. The debt should sit with the owners.
  18. In theory I'd very much like this to be the case, I just worry with a short preseason and shortened season because of the world cup next year, that settled teams who know each other inside out may have an advantage this year especially.
  19. With regards to more incomings, I'm not too sure that there'll be many more. This is nothing to do with how much we have to spend, but more to do with how many players we're going to integrate at once into the first XI. In my opinion Bailey, Ings, and Buendia will be included in that, along with Sanson once he's fully recovered from his injury. If we had JWP as well there's a chance up to half of our outfield team are going to have no relationships on the field. Just wonder if we're going to keep our powder dry until the winter transfer window depending on how we're doing.
  20. Considering the CB position, DS obviously has huge faith in Konsa and Ty, and I don't think that Hause is better than Axel. Good loan, just hope we haven't paid a stupidly large fee for it. If we do make Europe next season I think we'll need somebody better though.
  21. Devil's advocate, is Messi worth those huge wages to Barca though? He generates more interest in a club than any other player in world football. He's a guarantee of (relative) success too. What odds on Barca being outside the champions League places at the end of the season? They certainly won't make it far in the champions League this season without him. I'm probably wrong but Barcelona's problem has been paying high wages to very average players, or players not at the level required.
  22. I hope he moves for himself though, he's a good player who'll do well for a manager who believes in him. Think his best form has been under Smith and Lampard. Chelsea will regret selling him if Lukaku's form dips and Tammy is banging them in for someone else
  23. With Lukaku coming in, surely this spells the end for Tammy at Chelsea? He's not going to start any of the big games unless Lukaku, Havertz, and Werner are all injured. League cup at best. Can see him going to Spurs on the cheap if they sell Kane.
