The Fish

I think it was @Jimbo that was a bit of a SoA fan, maybe @Kid Dynamite? Never held my interest for particularly long to be honest.

Wonder where he'll end up. Had Arsenal not offered Wenger another 2 years I wouldn't have been shocked to see him there. All the big English clubs seem to be settled on their man.

Didn't he fall out with the owner or something?

Arsenal Fan TV will be a joy, as will FanDenial

Pretty sure that not picking you pretty much spelled that out Moussa, you big ol fraud.

He was in "Sons of Anarchy", that biker drama with Ron Perlman. All he can do is moody arrogant bellend.

Cool cool cool, I just telling Wolfy that it's not the priority he implies it is. Not that it shouldn't ever happen, just that the focus should be on the positions I mention. I've no doubt Benitez and his staff are working on bringing in players for some of those positions. I mean we've already heard about links to Mangala and now Iheanacho, Abraham, the Cairney rumour isn't going anywhere and Gabriel Pires liked a NUFC fan account so he's definitely signing.

We all live in bubbles though, right? The polarisation of the news media (and it's need to entertain, rather than inform) reinforces those divisions. The right are just better at selling their message of fear and blame to the masses, than the left are with their message of cooperation and compromise.

Well, to be fair, Europeans stole it and became Australians. Sure, but these are two "civilised" countries, not some isolated nation that suddenly has globalisation foisted upon them.

We have 3 1/2 'keepers, 2 of them have performed good-to-average in the top flight before, and while signing Reina would be a bit of statement of intent, I'd be hoping to see the priority areas addressed. I don't believe an "experienced quality keeper" is as vital as a striker, a left winger, a number 10, a centre mid and/or a left back. Cabaye used to make all the players around him 10% better, and this experienced 'keeper may well do the same, but the current roster would still be pretty poor by Premier League standards. That's why I think those positions I mentioned should take priority over a well-stocked position of all right players.

'keeper is not a priority.

Was visiting a mate in Australia (Freemantle) and her friends honestly told me that the "only reason Australians are racist is because we've all the races here". She wouldn't accept that London is more multi-cultural, even when our mutual friend backed me up. Swear to god I didn't see a single non-white face is Freemantle, not even an Aboriginal. That was part of the holiday where I visited Vegas, some of California, Sydney and Perth. Met friends of the family, family of friends, locals and holidaymakers and the only places where overt racism/bigotry wasn't the norm was Monterey and San Francisco. Even with my mate's dad's family, his partner was not a fan of "them mexicans". Thoroughly depressing on reflection.

I can't remember, were you someone who struggled with keeping up with the myriad subplots, locations and characters?

Hunnan couldn't act his way out of a paper bag. He's been shit in everything I've seen him in, but yes, he wasn't exactly helped by a script that stunk up the place.

Cannot understand why both managers set their teams up to limit the opportunities of their opponents. This is the biggest game of their season, it could be the biggest game of some players' careers. If they're going to lose, surely it's better to lose when trying to win? Do the Huddersfield have money behind them? How're they set up to strengthen in the window, because that team will go straight back down.

Sorry Brock, but Reading are an unappealing addition to the background of Newcastle surprise Premier League title season.

Who do you want to come up

Why not? Decent option on loan imo

Just think of lass surprised by a mexican corn snack

Iheanacho on loan would be great. Him and Abraham.

Fair play if you actually follow through. You've taken a lot of shit, but if you're switching for the reasons above, I think that's fair enough. You still know nowt about football like

Well done mate, was planning on returning at some point, but... beer.
