The Fish

I think you have crossed me for the last time!

Re: Jimmy Carr's joke. I honestly think he underestimated the casual racism towards gypsies. I think he was expecting the same kind of "I can't believe he's said that" reaction that he gets from many of his other jokes. Instead he got a glimpse into the bigotry that Al Murray gets when he tours his Pub Landlord stuff. The Pub Landlord is supposed to be the butt of the joke, and in this case I personally believe Jimmy Carr thought he'd be the butt of the joke too. Doesn't make the joke funny, inoffensive, or anything else, just my take. I'm just asking questions guys.

Where's the fucking Arcade?

Why? He doesn't have a history of scoring or providing assists.

Don't rush him in, give some minutes for sure, but don't start him if he's not ready. That's very Pardew.

... The plane is a full suite man. Honestly, it's like you've never been on a private plane before.

Is a private jet not first class?

Thing is, Everton's issues are legion. I think it's an issue not just of management, but of an unbalanced squad and I don't think van de Beek and Alli solve those issues

The irony of Luke Edwards being shocked at football fans holding a grudge is hilarious. Steve Bruce's best quality is surely his ability to get a few people on his side. He must be likeable in person, because in the media spotlight he's prickly, inarticulate and bland. At least Steve McClaren had an avuncular charm. He was shit, but I never hated him. He's claimed that the abuse is nothing he ever experienced before, at every club when the limitations of his ability are laid bare. He said the mackems hated him because he was a Geordie, that Villa fans hated him because he managed Birmingham, we hated him because he managed Sunderland. When, in truth, we all disliked him because of his personality and, more importantly, his football.

Sorry to hear that Renton, hope he can rest in peace.

Took me less time to get that the coffee thing.

I think with Lewis, as with Murphy, you have to look at who coached them and how the teams were set up. I don't think Lewis is a midtable/top half left back which is surely what we should now be aiming for. But I don't think he's as bad as some have made out.

It was @peasepud

Grainy and askew

It's like that coffee in the other thread.

Tumescent.

You know what they say, "shoot for the moon".

Andrew made me a mod on the temporary Reddit home, but it seems I'm too cool and controversial for the real deal.

If this is a passion of yours, try looking at this screen after you add one of your "turned his back, coward" posts to the thread. You'll see dozens of people who don't give the tiniest shit.

Wasn't Hayden's kid unwell? Which meant he was less keen to drag them away from the support network they had down south?

Never mind, found it. Now, where did I put my eye-gouger?

... what am I missing?

You're dribbling foetid bullshit from your endlessly yammering trap.
