Howay

I never get it when people say that, it was similar when Bruno come in and journalists would say it - drop any of them ffs. Shelvey isn’t a good player because he doesn’t give a fuck, he turns up for 3 games max per season, a Joe, Tielemans, and Bruno midfield would be brilliant. Compare Tielemans work rate, defensive ability and movement on and off the ball to Shelvey and it’s a total no brainer ffs.

She’s a cunt. As much of a cunt as her vile father. It’s not worth mentioning how much of a cunt Trump is, and his entire family of fucking cunts. I used to not wish death upon people, I really didn’t, but honestly some of these fucking animals are sentencing people to death with their actions so fuck them I hope Trump chokes on his next overly ketchuped chip the chinless, slobby paedophile. The Supreme Court can all fuck themselves. Biden can fuck himself, the fucking bitch that he is, he genuinely watched January 6th unfold and his response was basically a furrowed brow and then a ‘we should all heal’ motto, fuck that they’re treasonous far right lunatics, he should have used every fucking power he had available to completely fuck them. He should have codified Roe v Wade, AOC was spot on he asks for support from Dems for his next presidential campaign but what the fuck has he done to deserve it? He’s watched Trump and his legion of fucking psychos turn the cart over, piss and spunk all over it, flip everyone off, and once he got the power to do something about it he basically tutted and acted like it was a normal switch of government. He’s failed us. The Republicans have used every dirty trick in the book to get us here, the Democrats are unwilling to do anything and are trying to take some high road on it, it’s already cost women abortion rights, and removed a shit ton of checks and balances about gerrymandering, this avalanche will continue from the “Supreme Court” as we will see the removal of gay marriage federally and contraceptives (hence the national rush on Plan B pills). The fucking zealots have won and the Dems have sat on their fucking hands, along with Republicans who were too fucking cowardly to risk losing their seats. The country is fucked tbh, absolutely fucked, despite all the rights being torn away and removal of checks and balances dumb country bumpkins are screaming on about how high gas prices are all Biden’s fault - I genuinely think he will lose, they can’t let him run again they just can’t as he will lose. I think I mentioned on here that the day of the Ulvade school shooting my wife told me she wanted us to leave this country, and after this Roe v Wade decision I’m fully on board. Even if I didn’t have a daughter I don’t think I could stomach it anymore, it’s just fucking insanity these people genuinely believe there’s people out there getting abortions (even fucking late term ones) as if it’s a form of birth control, I can’t even read or listen to their bullshit any more. It’s an anti-woman law, it’s a stop fucking working and get back in the kitchen law, it’s not “pro-life” the very mention of that makes my stomach turn because it implies the other side is pro-death they also don’t give a flying fuck about life once that person is born, not a single fuck. Just look at the “pro-life” attitude to planned parenthood- they aim to defund it and attack their locations, does the organization aid women who have made the difficult choice to have an abortion? Yes, but they do fucking so much more - they offer impoverished communities support by giving information and access to doctors for pregnant women or for those who have young kids, they give contraception out and anonymous advice to people on safe sex and how to not end up pregnant, they give women resources and information about all things to do with their pregnancy, periods, etc etc, it’s basically an organization that aims to keep people safe and healthy, so sure “pro-life” want rid of that. Some of the responses to tweets like this show there’s no hope tbh: Like I say, it’ll be Gay marriage, contraception and then probably civil rights acts next “make America great again” = let’s get back to the 1950’s when white men could do what the fuck they wanted, women stayed at home and other races cowered. I’m at the point where if I hear someone voted Republican I automatically think they’re a cunt, you flat out cannot shrug all this shit off and think it’s an acceptable choice for some tedious reason like Biden is a bellend, or whatever else - the Republican Party is now anti democracy to add to their usual anti-progress stance. They used to just want to pull the ladder up after themselves, now they’re actively taking to burning other peoples ladders down. Sorry for the rant, I’m just so fucking angry about this. This country is gone. “It’s just giving the power to the states” pedantic fucking pricks can go do one too, no it’s giving the power to complete fucking lunatics and you all know it, why give power to less qualified and less equipped people? Admittedly as a British person I find the whole States rights thing to be mostly backwards fucking bollocks.

I thought it was one of the more pathetic articles trying to have a pop at us that I’d seen, then I noticed it’s just from some nonce that writes for the Sun so it all fits.

From the definitely true stories they shared surely you met a few that pretended they couldn’t speak any English and snubbed you in some minor way?

Gordon is a cheating prick. Spent 90% of his time on the pitch fouling players, diving, time wasting, or arguing with opposition. Personally I didn’t see what others did with his actual football ability neither, he just seemed like a busy bastard in an utter shite side that was in turmoil so he was always seen as the bright spot of their games.

I honestly hope that bloke implying any of their players would easily get past Burn and Botman is taking the piss. There’s backing your players and then there’s just being deluded. I’ve not seen Botman but Maldini and the Italian Champions wanted to sign him, so that leads me to believe he’s decent at the very least meanwhile their team are third division players. I shouldn’t have to spell this out but I think he does genuinely believe what he’s saying.

He tweeted about 5 mins before the official account announced it. Coincidence? I think not, shows the power the great man wields.

Shows what a load of shite the Italian press were coming out with. Never wanted to come to us according to them but here’s his ex manager saying he was basically worried he’d miss his chance if he didn’t join in January.

Shame as I think Raphinha is class. I’ve heard we are going to enquire about Werner so this might help that, and we are looking at the player Leeds are targeting to replace Raphinha, De Ketelaere he’s called. Soumare on loan is a maybe.

Aye that’s it, they’d make it up, then basically convince themselves it’s something he would do, then they’d decide he’s probably done it and they’re all outraged, and the maggie coonts are either disowning him which means we are all hypocrites, or defending him which they will be fewmin about. Yet absolutely none of their scenarios are real.

It’s class when they make up something that makes them excited, then figure out the downside to it/why it wouldn’t happen, and then get annoyed about it. They’re beyond parody now.

Agree it’s probably time we walk away from the Ekitike deal. Shame as it seems he’s a talent but his agent was clearly causing issues. Hopefully we refuse to do business with that agent going forward and publicly walk away from the deal as I think it adds to this view building around how our lot conduct business.

Genuinely couldn’t even guess who that player is. What a fucking non entity of a club they are.

Aye, no one fucking cared when it was our last owners tat everywhere putting nothing into the club, now when the deal benefits both the club and the owners it’s a problem.

It’s also just arguably the logical next step and larger in size than what come before. For absolutely donkeys years football has had wealthy people funding clubs with their own money (wasn’t the Blackburn Rovers side that won the title funded by a trust left by their owner?), Abramovic spent insane money on Chelsea, the Liverpool of the past spent loads taking everyone’s best and their modern day owners have fucking clearly been getting deals with brands they have ties to (New Balance, Standard Chartered, loads of American brands), same with Manchester United and their 40,000 partnered sponsors for everything. I agree it’s a bit sad for the game if you have some romantic view of the past, and think it had been massively competitive but it’s been heading for this type of thing for a long time the only major change is it’s a more definitive line in the sand from the haves to the haves not, and those have nots are beginning to include ones that have for a long time been those miles ahead of everyone. It’s not been as romantic as some people (and journalists) will act tbh. Look at clubs like us under Ashley, any time we had a player do well a rich side just plucked him away like Cabaye to go warm PSG’s bench, or Carroll to sit in the Liverpool physio room. These related party sponsors are just workarounds whereas in the past owners would just directly spend their own money. I’m glad it’s us getting this, but realistically for most football fans this changes fuck all as before the takeovers of us and Man City it’s not like they stood any realistic hope anyway is it?

Gemmill must be refreshing YouTube waiting for this to drop.

The added bonus to this is Edwards was backing up his whole point about the budget being low on no new incoming sponsors about 3 hours ago . £8m-£10m is the rumoured amount, keep in mind the Fun88 shirt deal is £6m

I also love that the signing is absolutely fucking nothing like a Graham Carr signing aside from the player coming from Ligue Un.

He’s just a troll tbh. He flat out doesn’t understand how FFP works so the numbers he was told don’t make sense to him, he thinks we’ve spent nearly 65m for FFP purposes already when in reality it’s a fraction of that. Take Villa as an example tbh, they’ve spent fucking loads and have done for years, they bring in less TV revenue and less sponsorship money all with a higher wage bill (especially now). Someone like Edwards would bring up selling Grealish but they’ve pissed far more than that up the wall. For example Kamara was ‘free’ to someone like Edwards but the total outlay is something like £85m with signing fees, agent fees, and wages. Edit: There you go - to him we have spent £54m but that’s absolutely not how FFP works. He simply refuses to ever understand the thing even at the most basic level of how costs are across a contract not one lump amount. Tldr he’s a boring wum.

Think it’s more Leeds probably not willing to sell and better players being available for the prices that would tempt them.
