Expect Leighton Baines to be announced by the end of the week 👍🏻

i'm going to hate Gordon until the moment he signs when he will become one of he most exciting young Engkish players in a generation

I’m hoping they get Tony Mowbray

I’ll look forward to your posts laughing at autistic young adults instead of you actually doing something plainly edgy and dangerous like buying a ticket and actually supporting the team

I heard Keane making the point that they had very little on the bench last night to come on and change the game so I had a look and he was right. Despite having £170m worth of players on there they didn't really have any options in attack to make a difference. They have spunked an incredible amount of money over the last decade on absolute shite. Great stuff.

They’re tragic, let them have it as it’ll only make them even fucking angrier when it inevitably goes tits up. Hope they enjoyed winning the nappy ripper derby, it’s the only one they’re going to get for the foreseeable.

struggling for inspiration here gentlemen, bit like our forward line. hoping we'll continue to concede nil and a spark of genius from any fucker will score us one, hopefully in each half!

I often wonder why Southampton is A. Very Tory & B. Also a shit town then I stop wondering and think about the tyne meandering beneath the most beautiful of bridges. Of stotties when you could buy loads of them and freeze some. Of rafferty’s selling beer so cheap on match days you genuinely wonder of their profit margins of putting these Tory nonce southern freaks out of the cup and SOMEHOW winning the final for now….an early night

open his goal scoring account.

Yeah, all Arteta needed was time, patience and £400m. But it’s us who have bought our success.

It's Schrodinger's Derby to them. Wasn't a derby at all, oh no. Just a dozen or two threads started after they won about the match and how they are now basically a midtable Premiership side (not kidding). However, the dreaded Dawn Thewlis, aided and abetted by one of their own, Jeff Brown, have suggested it might not have been a penalty, and the mackem fewm is back in full swing. They are fucking livid again. Needless to say, there's nothing wrong with post after post of misogynistic bile, dead classy behaviour that marra.

Darvel, like Marvel but with added drug addled descendants of coal miners

I'm alright with it as long as he plays with a bag on his head.

I thought Game of Thrones was totally overrated. It was watchable but there were just too many characters with ridiculous names. I’m fairly sure it was aimed at teenagers. It would have benefitted by having the character names on the bottom of the screen whenever they appeared, a bit like football games on the Playstation. The last couple of seasons were just mental too, some change of place. Anyone mentioning it in the same breath as The Wire, The Sopranos and Breaking Bad should only be given restricted access to this thread.

The bit where Junior’s gone senile and he thinks Curb Your Enthusiasm on tv is about his court case and Larry David is him

But when will young British managers get a chance!

He's too little to activate the sensors

The thing about Gordon is that it's probably unfair to judge him on this season at least in terms of his form. His diving and general demeanour are a separate issue. He's still very young at 21 and he's been playing in a shit team that can barely string a few passes together in forward areas. He has Lampard as a manager and seems to have had a falling out with him. I can't see Lampard benching him like he has if something personal wasn't going on. It's not as if Lampard's squad is overflowing with options. If Ashworth and Howe think there's potential in Gordon who are we to judge.

Similar to the Spurs wankers are these bellends. Spent the most in the league over the last decade, just spent mental money this past summer but they complain about their owners. I saw a discussion recently when the spending was brought up and the response was “but that’s the clubs money, the Glazers don’t spend their own” isn’t this exactly what we were accused of wanting Ashley to do?

Mikel Arteta has been building the Arsenal team for 3-4 year now. We are 1 year into our rebuild and we started off much further back.

Trippier 1 - Acid casualty 0

I like to think I have a pretty decent knowledge of obscure Scottish sides but I hadn't even heard of this lot. Impressive

Actually the way we are scoring at the moment he probably will in penalties after the second leg ends is a draw.

Don't forget he'll have cameras everywhere so you'll probably have been spotted perving.....

Delivered goods and comestibles to Matt Targett earlier. Tell you hwhat, Mrs T is straight in the Fist Bank savings account also,

Big dominant game from the new Michael Carrick in this one.

They never should have sacked Rafa

Anyone got his email address? I know a Nigerian prince who would love to get in touch with him.

Or hit him

Just when we thought you were getting the hang of this.

They're improving as a team and just gave one of the two teams who could win the PL this year a hell of a game after beating the other team who could win it last week. You'd expect to be gutted losing to a last minute goal but is this the crack every time they lose? Dummies out? Self entitled cunt.

Siri, what is an idiot?

My son's first name is after Oscar Wilde and his full name is a deliberate an play on Edgar Allen Poe. My old man (Alan) passed about a year before the lad was born. Since he was the third born, we were low on inspiration for names, so when my missus said "he looks like a wee old man, he needs an old man name" the poor fucker now has to live with the initials OAP. Probably cruel naming my son over an in joke, but I'll die happy knowing it's a reference to that moment and those words as well as Wilde, Poe and the grandad he never met.

Make it stop!

This should just squeeze into a mobile screen grab. FUCK ING HELL

And the FA turning a blind eye on him being a CUNT

Result indeed. Sounds more enjoyable than the skiing if you ask me. I've somehow still avoided it. Fuck knows how. Missus and all four kids have had it, sake for my extended family and my main social circle all got it pretty fucking bad at a party I also attended. Guessing I've had it and was one of the lucky fuckers that was either symptomless or wrote off the symptoms as the usual mild to moderate hangover.

There's so many funny bits in it but it's a great window into the human psyche of these people but people in general, the manipulation, the taking advantage of others and of moving into potentially advantageous positions and licking people's arse, especially Tony wouldn't be out of place in a royal court of Henry VIII or probably present day. Tony is both powerful, switched but incredibly needy and a bit of a cunt to put it mildly, funny how you can both like him, root for him but want him brought down within an episode. Superb series albeit the odd quiet or slow episode, the odd hallucination scene or 'ghost appearance' to guilt ridden characters just add to it.

Him and uncle junior, superb. 👍

“United” going behind in the last minute of the game.
