Dr Gloom

the only reason he's being touted as england manager is because he's the antithesis of eriksson.

he's entitled to his opinion but the way he feels he has to get his two pence in to every news piece or match report he files is beyond annoying. why does he feel the need to let us know what he 'feels', 'suspects', 'hopes' in ALL of his copy??? i couldn't care less about his gut instincts tbh.

i agree. if , as we all suspect, shepherd has ruled out all foreign managers - even those with better cvs than any of the british managers in the running - then he can fuck off as far as i'm concerned. he has to get this appointment right. if he rules out the best man for the job because of his nationality then he has proven beyond reason (even to the likes of leazesmag) that he isn't capable of running a football club.

i agree about the lack of pace up front affecting his game. i also reckon he'd do better in a 3 man midfield, which may well happen if martin o'neil takes over.

canny can have so many meanings depending on the context it's used. i like a word that can work on so different levels....means you don't have to use too many brain cells when searching for an adjective.

sounds almost as rank as doctor pepper

Missed a trick when Blackburn got him like, probably too late now. 112392[/snapback] aye. you can't help but think blackburn got the better deal when we paid them compensation for souness and they got hughes

bog standard shite from oliver but mark hughes might not be a bad shout, although god only knows why he'd want to leave blackburn for us if he took them up to europe.

a few dubious valuations up there like. personally, i'd be looking to sign a new centre half, a couple of new full backs - preferably ones that can also play at centre half - and a couple of new strikers. i think we've got enough quality in midfield but we're weak as piss up top and the less said about the defence the better. i'd get rid of boumsong, bramble, bowyer and elliot to anyone stupid enough to take them off our hands. god knows if we'll have to money left over to get the right players in. something tells me we won't be caining £5m+ on the likes of barry, petrov and anelka, or getting £8m for emre.

peep show deserves a mention too. best british comedy for some time imo

south east asia was class like. i can see how people go and never come back. thailand/vietnam/cambodia/lao were all mint. 3 months on a kibbutz followed by a tour of israel, jordon egypt and sinnai was pretty sweet. i'm due a sabbatical at the end of the year. really want to go to south america.

curb your enthusiasm (best show to come out of the us in decades) the west wing ramsey's kitchen nightmares 24 lost season 2 that's about it

confused.com

we could just talk about how shit we are. i can't think of many other clubs in the premiership that depress their support more than us, except maybe villa and the mackems

blaydon was different class

there's nowt like feeding the baby

i think it's a good idea. it's time to see where the club goes without shearer behind the scenes.

i quite fancy the hammers to go all the way actually and dean ashton to get a late england call up.

keep: Given (& Harper) Carr Taylor Baba Ramage Moore Dyer Parker Emre Zog Solano Owen get rid: Boum Bramble Bowyer Elliott Clark Faye Luque Ameobi

club kitchen infested with mice?

interesting. but i reckon he'll end up at real madrid

incompetent tbh. wales knocked out the millennium stadium in a year or two. wembley has taken the best part of seven years and has run million over budget.

The right decision imo, well done law lords. The amount of money spent on that case pales into insignificance compared to the war in Iraq does it not Leazes? 109178[/snapback] Yes, but the war in Iraq some would say had to be done regardless of the cost, whereas this pile of shite above is a complete nonsense - throw the fuckers out of the country if they are not prepared to wear the school uniform like the other kids - I see the daft cow is now considering appealing on the grounds of human rights... 109196[/snapback] you couldn't make it up!

my only criticism of him is he does tend to dwell on the ball. he doesn't always notice the early pass and will check and turn back on himself before trying a more ambitious ball.
