The Fish

Emery plays the same suicidal high line, Howe stuck with it for too long as well. With the right keeper you can get away with it more often than not. Villa have Martinez and we have Pope so we can rely on them, not sure Vicario is the same profile of keeper though

To be fair the Man Utd fans I know are pretty reasonable. They don't think £20m is a fair price but agree £2m is just them chancing their arm. But then I'm in Cheshire, so it's not like I'm having to explain it with crayons for lads from Longsight or Moss Side. Mind, even the lads I do know still have that sense of entitlement. I'm sure I said it on here before, but some were bemoaning how dominant Man City are and how that's made the league boring. I pointed out the irony with a "What? Like you lot in the 90s?" Unsurprisingly they're in favour of PSR, to stop 'mental spending'. 😂 They also agree with scrapping replays, because they've so many injuries. Like I said, that sense of entitlement remains.

Still don't understand the Man Utd fans reaction to is holding a man to the terms in his contract? Apparently it's small time to state that they either pay an acceptable amount of compensation, or they wait until his gardening leave finishes.

Aye she did. Finally. Despite my cunt of a neighbour's best efforts.

The wife is more into cars than me to be honest. She was the one who advised I go for a 'better' brand for the BMW, arguing that while the car and the parts may cost more they wouldn't break as often. Well I spent north of £3k on fixing that and absolutely zero fixing the Kia, she can stick her car advice up her jacksie.

I think you have to look at what people are voting for in the States. It's personality Vs policy. Trump isn't getting votes by preaching fiscal responsibility, or shrinking government, he's getting it with bombastic speeches appealing to the worst instincts of disenfranchised (and dare I say ill-informed) voters. The Tories don't have that kind of galvanising leader, they've rattled through PMs and cabinet ministers faster than my little'uns going through nappies. And making a bigger mess than when she shits all the way up her back. If Johnson had managed to retain the support of the party and the people then maybe, MAYBE, I'd agree. But right now they're a rudderless junk, in the midst of mutiny, on a becalmed sea. Labour have to remain seen as a well run alternative, seeming exceptional purely through a modicum of competence. They need a blow out to firmly establish themselves as serious leadership. The minute they start announcing grand plans they open themselves up to attacks from opportunistic populists from the right.

Short reviews of cars I've owned Rover 200 - pile of shit that my mother had driven for years. I'm glad I crashed it. BMW 1 series - absolute fucking money pit, ended up getting £900 off a garage who just wanted the parts. Kia Ceed - perfectly fine hatchback, cheap to run, cheap to insure, 7 year warranty, would have kept it but salesman was a total cunt. VW Polo - yeah, fine I guess. Caring about cars must come in your 50s, I suppose?

I don't get why the press don't call them Man Yoo? It's shorter than 'United'. It is instantly clear who they're talking about too. Trickier with Man City though.

Offside law is to prevent an unfair advantage. When you're getting into millimetres it's not really a strong case that the attacker had an unfair advantage. Daylight is an unfair advantage and not from the torso, the shoulder or the knees. It should be trailing foot Vs leading foot.

Irony is that if that was the limit of his ambition, he'd 'not be good enough' for the Man City of Mordor.

Was it really VAR where the problem lay? I thought we were fucked by a different interpretation of the handball law?

And of course, the genocide

Why not just say no replays after the third round?

He's a man apart. I mean Truss has utterly fucked the entire British Isles and everyone in it

Group of Death. Group of Death. Group of Death. Group of Death. Group of Death. Group of Death.

3 hours and nothing? Fucks sake Dougle

We have never, in our history, signed a good player. We've always overpaid for absolute dog eggs. Until they prove their worth and then of course they're good, we paid an absolute fortune from them, but they'll be off as soon as a big club comes in for them. Once they leave they become top class

Chelsea and Man Utd are near impossible to gauge. They're getting by on individual talent, but they've got players with loads of it. They can as easily lose to a relegation side as they can take points off a title challenger. They could conceivably lose the next 4 on the bounce.
