You also deliberately misspelt 'noticeable'. Do I get a prize too?

I wholeheartedly agree with the police officer. Anybody over the age of 70 should be tasered without mercy. Never mind resisting arrest, they should be tasered wherever they form an obstruction to normal citizens going about their business - in a queue, in the shops, at the doctor's, in the street, starting an unsolicited chat. Or if they're boring you. All adults between the ages of 18 and 70 should be issued with tasers and authorised to perform a 'Citizen's Taser' whenever the siutation warranted it and even if it doesn't. The lives of productive men and women would be greatly improved and it would be fun too. 70 year olds valuable to society could apply for a special card to wear around their necks to exempt them from peremptory justice. The rest of the time wasting scrounging old bastards would have to take their chances going about their business. I think this should be considered. We could also include MPs and town councillors who would be required to wear targets on their front and back for easy identification.

Melt the pair down should be just enough for a statue of big Mike. I can picture it now, a fat bastard downing a pint and sticking two fingers up to the fans....the younger fans could pull it down with a rope Saddam-stylee and smash it to bits when he finally goes. Would make great telly for Sky now I think about it....

IS that supposed to be wor jackie on the left?!! He looks like a one armed backy-slap with legs you can drive a pig through!

This selling lark ain't gonna be so easy. Granted. It's all about the price innit.

I personally think he'll sell, I can't see how he'd be better off by putting the club into administration. I think what's happening is he's flogging his car but refusing to pay for any more petrol or running costs. He's gambling that he can sell the car before the petrol runs out. Obviously there might be some shenanigans we don't know about it and I'm more nervous about it the longer the sale process goes on. Him and LLambias look as dodgy as, I wouldn't trust them to mind my pint while I go to the bogs frankly. But based on what I've read to date I think he just wants out asap and I think he'd prefer to sell up to achieve that, it's the quickest/cleanest/best option from his pov.

Worst WUM ever

Those statues are hilariously bad. They look like garden gnome footballers. There seems to be an unrelenting stream of bad press about the club at the moment, I wouldn't be at all surprised if someone like FFS was behind it [/conspiracy]

Post no 23 might help

Meet the new owner....

is it the school holidays in England?

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/...s.html?ITO=1490 This sort of thing happens all the time to save tax. It's just that it's Joey Barton, whose image is dog shit. Still the contract was neogotiated before the prison term I suppose.

I don't believe any of that piece tbh

It makes it sound like we can't sell him, when in reality he's out of contract. What will they find to write about next season?

I doubt he walked home

There's more to this than meets the eye. The use of image rights in sport is a standard way of saving tax for football clubs. Arsenal were amongst the first to use it. iirc the main saving is national insurance and the player gets a tax deferral till the image rights company pays them. So I take this as a bit of shit stirring tbh

"....for a player over the age of 35" perhaps. Leave Obafemi out of it, Chez

If he buys us let's hope he knows a bit more about football than Ashley, eh

I think it says more about the silly money Perez is prepared to throw around rather than how far we've fallen. I don't see the connection with us at all tbh.

Another day, another story. Wake me up when September comes.....

They wouldn't let me sign up. Can't fault their decision tbh.

Obviously I'm the only one who remembers Black Lace - anything they did made you want to drill your ears out, but Agadoo was particularly bad. And The Birdy Song (can't remember who by) deserves a special mention too.

Hughton having another go FFS? Would he have the brass neck to do it, the man should be ashamed of his previous two attempts.

I think we could realistically sell him for 2 million. However we should insist on paying the transfer fee in instalments.

Muppets. Might be more convincing if they hadn't been such a yo yo club themselves. Still what goes around comes around and we've been laughing ourselves stupid at Sunderlol for years.
