I couldn't decide whether it was more like this or Glenn's meltdown on The Thick of It

The next fucker to say "But the Tories have won! Labour are being unfair!" is going to get a batting from me. The quiet man

I know its completely different universes but there has supposedly been Arab interest in Man Utd over the last few months - I think a good salesman (not Keith Harris) could maybe hawk us around as a cheaper option. Man United is a completely different animal and to be totally honest we're in no way comparable with them. Despite Ashley's best efforts we're still a relativelty well known global brand but we're not alone in that sense. MA's schizophrenic valuation of the club over the past few years probably hasn't done anything to promote the club as a realistic option for your average billionaire with a passing interest in sport. Obviously this is assuming he wants to sell, which I don't believe he does.

We're fucked and there's no exit route. The days of Arab billionaires turning up on the steps of football grounds with novelty sized cheques for a few hundred million are long gone. We're basically relying on Ashley suddenly realising what a useless cunt he has been and doing the right thing.

Yes and no excuses. But putting that to one side, anyone who has any dealings with business, HR or PR can surely not even begin to come to terms with the set out and words in that statement. It reads as though cobbled together by some working mens club committee. I have read it a few times to see if I could gllen any positives from it..... Are they trying to be totally truithful and upfront about the situation given the various stories about how much, which players etc etc. If so they have been very naive. Not much leaves me speechless but this time they have succeeded. Leazes, Pud............... It does, the geordie nation bollocks is completely astonishing. Just completely astonishing. They must have some fan, somewhere who talks to them on a regular basis, making them aware of the feelings of the fans?? Steve Wraith perhaps? He was always so beyond surgical removal of FFS arse iirc, and he's been the same with these. Fuckin geordie nation, not that I care, but that is the type of bollocks which exasperated the piss taking when we were relegated. Exactly, and to this day i have yet to meet a toon fan or indeed any geordie who has ever sued the term Gerodie nation seriously. The only people i ever here use it are journalists and commentators etc. As for Wraith i don't know if he'd have time to be up FFS arse when he spends so much time up the Krays arse, wanking over the fact he was "The geordie connection" to them, well done Steve, you kiss the arse of some horrible cockney arsehole gangsters, what an achievement. Apparently he got clipped at QPR

They're defending it. Unbelievable. "They're" are you taking the piss? About 3 posters (ie a very small minority) have said "you might be misreading it". All class A wankers by the way. I demand that you name names. All Keegan haters I bet. One is called Stifler, which tells you all you need to know about the lad really.

I can see Hughton walking away eventually. His stock is high enough for him to get a nice, stable job at a relatively successful Championship club.

It's laughable

Fantastic stuff, I was stood in the Newcastle Hero shouting "Fucking hell! I know her...in a way..."

Tory Governments and riots seem to go hand in hand. May as well get it out of the way early rather than waiting a few years until the full effects of their policies are being felt.

Fuck off.

Not on BBC yet. I feel a bit ashamed saying this but I can't muster an inch of compassion for this man . Any sympathy vote he gnerates will come from the tories in any case (not that I think it would have any bearing). His 'speech' in the European Parliament was nothing short of a disgrace. It was the equivalent of school yard bullying. As John Simpson said, for a man/party so interested in Britain there was nothing distinctly British about it. It seems his plane crashed after getting tangled in a UKIP banner

A light aircraft carrying Nigel Farrage has crashed according to Sky News. I hope he's okay. The last think we want is those cunts getting the sympathy vote because some closet bigot has shuffled off this mortal coil.

The laziest Sun election front page in years.

I held it together until they married up car keys and darkies then I was gone

Has this already been posted? http://www.independent.co.uk/opinion/comme...nd-1962318.html Very scary article by Hari, who even I find a pain in the arse most of the time.

This Phillipa Stroud thing is a bit scary. Apparently she's got a superinjunction to stop the BBC from reporting it.

True. Thing is though their immigration policy actually makes sense when you listen to what they plan to do but it's a similar issue to drug use. Hysteria is more of a vote winner than common sense.

I'd have him. He's not the creative midfielder we're crying out for but he'd be good cover.

It's interesting in a "oooh, I wonder what will happen and what the fall out will be" way but you're spot on - it's depressing. Regardless of what happens the immediate future looks bleak. I live in a Labour stronghold, the Lib Dems are the only thing close to opposition and the party I find most agreeable so I've voted for them. It wont make a difference, we'll still be Labour come Friday morning. I don't envy your position though, if I lived in a Lab/Con marginal I'd vote red for the exact reasons you're going to.

"Do you know what it's like to clean up your own mothers piss?"

Labour starting to lose the plot now IMO. Don't see how they've lost the plot at all from that article tbh. Sounds like he's a nutter. Aye, I mean the bloke's giving a speech. You can't just let some mackem flid mong on about his broadband. Brown made a pledge not that long ago that he wanted the entire country to have at least 2mb broadband in their homes. Anyway, what he's arguing about is besides the point - one of the biggest criticisms that came out from the Gillian Duffy incident is that people felt that Brown wasn't listening. Removing a 'heckler' who's hardly going to test his political mind that much isn't exactly helping to dispell that train of thought. Is he worried about fucking up again? If not, then why not speak? Didn't Cameron get a heckler 'removed' from a speech he was giving on a few days ago? No politician is going to go toe to toe with someone on a rant about how long it takes to twoc the latest Lady Gaga album.
