The Transfer Haiku Thread: Le poète est né, pas fait!
has evolved way beyond the subject of transfers
Is it Achterberg?
Do we need a new keeper?
Only time will tell.
Achterberg is boss.
A highly qualified coach.
The problem's not him.....


possibly it was better when it was transfers
Mario Tyne-bound
Bringing goals to Newcastle
Why-aye always me?


Rawkite Quitter - 10 posts
All my posts modded
For trying to be funny
How nice of you all

Never abusive
My aim is to entertain
I'm needy like that

So farewell then RAWK
Carry on being boring
c*nts the lot of you
Moderation Royalty
Trying? Yes. You are.
Funny? Definitely not!
Abusive, bad WUM.

At least you complied
With the true haiku ethos!
Pity it was shite.

Goodbye from RAWKites!
You will not be remembered.
Fierce fires burn quickly.

On the subject of classic posts, how could we all forget possibly the most disturbing thing ever posted on RAWK? Inspired by this...



...somebody drew this.

I'm not sure I find this post amusing.

How about arousing? :smirk:

Scousers think that since they signed VVD in spite of failed negotiations with Southampton initially, this is their MO now. Most of them think Fekir is still coming

Rawkite on the fekir transfer
This reminds me of some dreams I used to have as a wee boy. Nicole Kidman's in my bedroom. She then asks to lock the door, she then asks to close the curtains, she then asks me for a video camera, she then asks me to charge the batteries, she then asks for a second lock on the door... and then before you know it some ****ing noise wakes me up.

Shaqiri delirium breaks out on Rawk, the poetry has begun..
This is Gold.

Also this is my first post, and it had to be on the Rawk meltdown thread, as its the one of the main reason's I became a member. Otherwise I would have lurked until the Zombie apocalypse.

Rakitic played as a winger back then, he started as a wide player at Basel and at Schalke. Always wanted us to sign him whilst he was in Germany.
Sevilla I think got him for about £2m, around 6 months before we spent four times that on Charlie Adam.

It also means a medieval singer or musician and it's chocolate, but hey, why not bring up the racist version in a poor joke.
Hey didn’t mean to offend anyone. But that’s the first thing which showed up when I searched the meaning of the word minstrel. Sorry if I offended anyone.

Once upon a time (2016, actually)

Best defender of the era is a great tangent for this. Sergio Ramos is probably my pick, I love the cojones on the guy.

Yet the first thing that shows up is the medieval version of the word, hmmm.
Search for minstrel show and that’s the first thing which shows up. So yeah I have already said sorry for any offense caused to anyone. Also I don’t think I used it in any derogatory way or poked fun at any race. If you want to be precious about an honest error then go ahead. I can’t help it. Also this is my last post for the day so peace out.

I think 'minstrel' will have 3 meanings in the non-sweetie sense these days.

1 - medieval
2 - dubious music hall act of late 19th / early 20th century
3 - dubious BBC programme of the 1970s

the relative contemporary-ness of the last 2 is quite amazing in a way - I was reading about G H Elliott in 'Sussex Life' magazine (I like to live on the edge, :D) A man who got featured on 'This Is Your Life' in 1957. If you want to see proper socially acceptable racism in full action, check out his stage name that was marked on to his gravestone in 1962 when the Rochdale showman went off to the great big music hall in the sky. Quite astonishing, really.

But I honestly thought our 'new' friend here, was just messing about with the word he says he didn't quite know meself. I think we should accept this & move on, tbh.

And Dirk Kuyt has just told me it never happened, anyway.

Ok, but if you googled minstrel show it means you already knew what it was or you wouldn't have known to add show. You're lying and just digging yourself a deeper hole with every post, and all for the sake of making a really bad joke with racist connotations.

I hear they already have shirts printed and Kenny will wear one to his knighting ceremony.

Wow! You're going out of your way to make something out of an innocuous attempt at a silly joke.
Reminds me of "Militant Black Guy" from Balls Of Steel.

If he wasn't lying and admitted it was a poor attempt at a shitty racist joke it wouldn't bother me tbh, but it's the lying that annoys me.
