As I tried to allude to before, Bamford didn't get Boro promoted and I saw him look lost v AFCB in a crunch promotion game last April, he and Boro couldn't handle a pre promotion Bournemouth. So someone looking at things objectively would say he did ok but couldn't cut it when it counted. He's since played 6 prem lge games for Palace and 7 for Norwich. He's still Chelsea's player though. So, who has his total of 5 different loan deals to various championship and mediocre premier league sides benefitted most? The clubs? Chelsea? The player himself? Iyam loans are pretty much a waste of time for players and clubs. Rafa might bring one or two in but it doesn't look like it at the moment. Seeing as he's actually signing young decent talent on real contracts perhaps means he's thinking along the same lines. I certainly hope so.

Glue....was the main character a council gardner?

Was that the one with a TV presenter character with a strong regional accent who drove a around in a hearse, committing necrophilia in various UK morgues?....it might have been one of 3 short stories?.. What you're on about was called Skagboys

I think short term loans would've been the way we'd have gone this season without Rafa, but he's building all aspects of the club for the future. Loans only really benefit the loaning clubs due to getting wages off the balance sheet. Loans from major premier league clubs nowadays almost certainly don't benefit the player or his host club. Definetly not both at the same time.

Am not really disputing that there's some dead wood in the squad but for a change we've got a coach who can both improve players and the way the team plays as a whole. Let's see how some of them go at this level...

February I think they're saying. Diane's character plays a pretty major role in the sequel novel Porno which John Hodge has vaguely based the new films screenplay on and Kelly McDonald was apparently "in talks"...Kevin McKidd isn't in it as his character Tommy died in the first one. http://www.theguardian.com/film/video/2016/jul/25/trainspotting-2-exclusive-teaser-trailer-for-danny-boyles-sequel-video?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other

You're (almost unbeleivably ) forgetting Emanuell "the rivet" Rivière, is he still crocked?....

CT defending Boris for talking shit about something he knew fuck all about?....what's the old saying?.... "Birds of a feather"...

Is he just about to bang a needle in his arm?

Well yeah, if the story is genuine...

Thing is if we can sus it why do they think professional recruitment departments will suddenly shit themselves?

Blatantly placed to flush out a serious bid from Everton or Juve?...

Hmmmm...think I'm going with "seeing as Manu were in Bejing playing citeh on Monday and play Dortmund in Shaghai today, I think the youngsters pictured are indeed likely to be Chinese nationals"

The only player we've signed who could be termed properly out of our previous remit is Gamez. The rest are all pretty young with potential. The difference is we've got a coach who can almost certainly improve Young players. Hanley is at the moment Seven Taylor with a beard, let's see how he gets on...and how he gets on in the prem if we go up..

Typically cynical from the spokesperson fro Generation X

Run this past them too

Trump doesn't strike me as the sort of person who would do something if he thinks there's a chance of him being "the plucky runner up".... I think someone on here said at one of our recent elections that they'd be tempted to draw a massive cock and bollocks on the ballot slip.... If I was a US citizen in November that's precisely what I'd do... Hilary is as bad but for different reasons...

Might have been an Anglo with K&K in the Breeders then....I remember a mate was a tiny bit obsessed with her...wiki tells me her name was Jo Wiggs

theres an obvious punchline here

Tanya Donnely....is the posh English bird still in the band?...did she play bass?...

Last January it should've been addressed to give us the best chance of staying up....you try telling that to some folk though, they just won't listen

Hmmmm...... I think Japanese tourists are hugely outnumbered by their Chinese counterparts nowadays....do we have any experts on Asiatic ethnicities on this board?...

Do we need one?

So you'd think this may be one of the people pulling Trump's strings.....interesting, thought provoking and pretty fuckin scary article...they're out to get us damned pinkos... https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2016/jul/21/peter-thiel-republican-convention-speech?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other I agree that the old way of doing things is dysfunctional and isn't working for countless millions of people all over the planet, but this shit isn't the answer.
