  1. Marcus Rashford (Out)

    Wasn't he into the last 12 months of his contract when he signed a new one? So being realistic we were never getting 150 or thereabouts, no clubs paying that for someone they can get for free if they just wait a year, and once the contract was signed then no one was going to bid as clear he was...
  2. Television Anyone recommend me any TV Shows?

    Only heard of Deaths Game from this thread, great recommendation. I could see the ending coming a hundred miles off but even so, it's a brilliant watch. Fallout I loved too. I get why some are a bit on the fence or think that it was just "decent" but it's right up my street; and I'll admit...
  3. Film Worst Acting Performance of all time

    Andre the Giant in The Princess Bride is a different level of bad.
  4. Chelsea vs Manchester United

    They're saying Boo-urns
  5. Kieran McKenna | Ipswich manager

    Glenn Hoddle at Swindon also. Promoted in 93 ( and scored in the play off final too) then quit and went to Chelsea.
  6. How good was Bryan Robson?

    Lineker story on Robson, for his Greatest England 11 ( starts at 6 mins)
  7. Players you had forgotten existed

    Nikki Papavasileiou, first Cypriot in the Prem. I was there for his pre season debut, against Gateshead, being played in Berwick, for some reason. He looked handy for a couple of games then you never heard from him again. Staying on the Newcastle theme, Barry Venison. Liverpool reserve with...
  8. Who is the most unhinged footballer?

    Not many people, never mind footballers, as unhinged as David Cotterill.
  9. Film The Movie Critic - Tarantino's 'final' movie

    Really looking forward to his last movie. Loved everything he's done, with the obvious exception of Death Proof, the one Tarantino movie everyone pretends doesn't exist.
  10. How good was Bryan Robson?

    And finally, "Robson was voted in August 2011 as the greatest ever Manchester United player in a poll of the club's former players as part of a book, 19, released to celebrate the club's record-breaking 19th league title." So not just any old people online. Former players had him above...
  11. How good was Bryan Robson?

    Additionally, Gazza, who you would imagine would have grown up idolising someone like Keegan as a Geordie, said: "I'm in awe with him. He's my idol, always will be. I just love him in general, I always will do. Forget about Maradona, Pele... the gaffer's always been my best player ever seen. If...
  12. How good was Bryan Robson?

    Think Keane but with more goals. Absolute monster of a player. You want an example of just how great he was? Steven Gerrard said: "A mate of mine owned this Robson top, the old blue-and-white one with dashes on it. We were kicking about on Ironside [the appropriately named road he grew up...
  13. Television The Wire

    Every time I see someone mentioning The Leftovers in the same conversation as The Wire, Sopranos, Chernobyl, etc, I wonder if there's some big joke that I'm not a part of. Why do people keep bringing it up? It was average, at best. Is it just me?
  14. Are Bruno and Rashford a problem?

    You can't argue with Bruno supporters, all they ever throw at you is "Most chances created in the league, most chances created in the league". You can tell who actually knows football, has watched it for years and judges players based on what they actually see with there eyes, and who just...
  15. I hope for a brutal summer

    There'll be about 6 players sold from the first team, though it could be triple that amount. Honestly, the only "do not sell" players we have, in my opinion, are Hojlund, Mainoo and Garnacho. Dalot has had a good season but I wouldn't be fussed if he left for decent money. Martinez was...
