probably me favourite london pub on kew bridge rd and just round the corner from brentford's ground. the express tavern, not sure about the vodka/coke situation but is renowned for its selection of real ales and particularly ciders. one side of the bar is dedicated to the latter with at least a dozen on offer and not a strongbow or stowford to be seen. thoroughly recommend you try them all. very envious.

from that list.... 1) dalglish hated the dour cunt for dismantling the greatest team I'd ever watched and turning it in to relegation candidates in his full season. shouldn't even have been feasible. 2) souness despised this fucker too. can sort of appreciate shepherd's reasoning at the time as our squad was clearly getting out of control off the pitch (and sometimes on it) failed to identify dyer as the main culprit and instead targeted bellamy, who was arguably our best player. absolute fucking moron. 3) bruce about the only credit this fucking appalling pile of talentless cholesterol deserves is that he manages to shunt pardew down a place. quite how a man can have so little self respect truly boggles the mind. 4) pardew manages to finish down the hate list from bruce only by virtue of the 5th place finish. matches the corbridge cunt stride for stride though for having not one shred of dignity. very, very fortunate to scrape in at a respectable 4th considering how much he made my flesh crawl. 5) allardyce odious cunt, hideous football. stands out as the appointment which marked shepherd's unravelling. 6) kinnear utterly surreal appointment. the david lynch/salvador dali of football managers/director of football. if somebody told you that they'd hallucinated all this on a particularly strong purple om blotter, you'd assume they were still tripping. 7) gullit finishes bottom as he had the dignity to walk away without a pay off. had quite a cool hair do.

enjoyed that bit of a catch up. oh and howay burton!

pottering on in the garage like old cunts tend to do on a sunday ( @spongebob toonpants ) two classic albums have had me pogoing along, power tool In hand.......

steve's probably gone to the bar for 53 packets of pork scratchings.

hope you rake it in mate. I was casting a bit of line out for somebody else with part of me post, but I think he'd probably fucked off by then!

I suppose if you have a whole host of ex pro sycophants in the media telling the world how wonderful you are, as well as a son making veiled threats on social media to the probably the only journalist prepared to report the emperor's wearing no clothes, then you're bound to think you're ace. it also helps that he's thick as pig shit!

just noticed he's took his personal record for 21/22 to no wins in 12. bigged kenilworth road up as one of the hardest places to visit in the championship. managed to trot out 'since I walked through the door' 'make a fist of it' and 'roll our sleeves up' during his post match summary yesterday.

not particularly generous odds I don't think considering there was every liklihood we could've been adrift in bottom 3 by the january window. as it is we weren't and are definitely looking upwards rather over our shoulder. hope I'm wrong but I reckon you'll fall a couple of places short with your bet. however had we signed mitrovic instead of wood.....

next up the mighty burton albion, who they've never beaten at home before in their entire history. enjoy.

looking at their table, bolton are on fire, portsmouth with 3 games in hand. they've got to be rock bottom of the form table and if they keep up this glorious run they could easily finish as low as 11th. such a shame!

hounded out the bloke who had them within 2 points of automatic promotion. thick cunts.

I started the man utd one so deserve the most credit.

aye. wallpaper it's called.

enjoyed that, good point, but as already said could easily have pushed on for 3. very impressed with both burns games up to now. no reason we can't beat brentford next week.

no need to worry. chris wood hat-trick today.

I didn't realise gemmill was welsh... https://www.walesonline.co.uk/news/uk-news/grandad-85-wins-thousands-after-23045855

hate the idea of the ground not being where it is, so many memories. but realistically it's the only way to go I think.

aye. I think amanda and her mates might in for a bit of a shock when they open up season ticket sales again. the website was glitching like fuck on monday for a game against brighton. gonna be chaotic I think.

all the talk of expansion or relocation I suppose is ultimately tied in with what capacity is needed. if monday was anything to go by we'll sell out every home game for the rest of the season within an hour of tickets going on sale and this is potentially just the start. gonna be interesting to see how big the demand is for season tickets next year assuming we stop up and coupled with an exciting transfer window. I think we'd comfortably fill a stadium with a 10,000 bigger capacity just on the hope of being successful.

oh...... and I think wykikitoon might fancy you.

far be it from me to be a tell tale, but.... fish reckons you know nowt about the history of our club.

fucking incredible. hope the fat cunt forgets to duck next time he gets out of his helicopter.

and yet oddly amongst the clamour for keane and at times allardyce poor peter reid gets overlooked despite taking them to their highest league placing for decades, twice. it's like they're happiest circling the bowl. as you say..... weird!

will be interesting next season, assuming we stay up. moyes has been pretty transformative at west ham in a 2 year period and in an era where we're told such things shouldn't be feasible and without the funds howe could have at his disposal. only takes a couple of players to transform a team, as robson proved with bellamy and robert. i see a title challenge next year.
