The Fish

Shouldn't you be doing some so-called accountings?

Usurped?

Moussa Sissoko is the Mornington Crescent of all "He's not worth that, even in this market" conversations.

This must be how Blackburn fans felt when we took Souness off their hands.

Fwiw I think a lot of what Perez does for the team goes unnoticed. He drags opposition out of position, dropping between the lines and moving into channels. And yes, he gives the ball away a fair amount it's because he's trying the killer pass. Made the most tackles on our team and only 3 players touched the ball more. Certainly was better than Ritchie and Gouffran yesterday.

Mind you, we didn't have a single freekick in what I'd consider a dangerous area yesterday. Only had 6 corners too.

Remember Steve McClaren sitting up in the stands for the first half, then calling the bench to make changes. By comparison, Rafa is constantly shaping the team to react to what he's seeing, constantly directing players, seeing us go 2-0 up away from home and instead of punching the air and trying to find a camera to gurn for, he's scribbling a note, working out what the opposition is likely to do after going 2-0 down. Fucking love him me

Turn up at matches where you're not officiating to "give commentary", then when shits going down you get up and stand at pitchside to distract the ref.

The ref's unannounced until kick off, then some rock riff starts up and you swagger out the tunnel like

Alreet Milo Apropos of nothing whenever I hear his name I always picture this guy;

Trouble is, you're relying on the commentators getting it right. Owen would likely drone "Ohh he just got blown by the ref".

Shame most of the photos have been lost to the ether as well.

I like the EDL in the bottom left of one of their flags. Shows political activism and that's to be applauded.

Lavender will forever be my favourite synonym for the gays.

Peppermint?

Not afraid of a sit down wee at home either. That's me, pushing boundaries.

I'm more a despairing sit-down, tbh.

I've noticed, I think it's because the consensus is that I'm an aspiring stand-up

I don't think anyone else has their glib remarks critiqued half as much as I do.

You drunk?

Guessing you've already seen it, but there's a short video about how the reintroduction of wolves into Yellowstone has had a dramatic impact on not just the flora and fauna, but the actual landscape too.

Yep, apparently the lad who got it for me (who I maybe had 4 conversations with in 2 years) has no sense of humour and is cheaper than a bushel of budgies. He had a Star Wars mug that changed colour when hot liquid was poured into it. I might like comics, but he's a fucking nerd.

About what? the plastic p.o.s.?

I'm neither weird, nor unique, dear boy.
