Anyone who follows pro cycling could see the effect Brexit Jim was going to have on the rags from a mile off.

And so it has come to pass. Long may he reign over them.

Team Sky were the top dog in pro cycling. Now under ineos mid table team at best. :)

Just listening to another of the top rate pundits that Sky now employ... Charlie Austin. According to him should sack Amorim and bring in Sean Dyche to stabalise the situaton. Do they pay him for this...

Whatever they pay him it's not enough . Dyche, I love it.

Their decline is slow and steady, but they haven't reached their lowest point, their nadir, just yet - but it is rapidly approaching. As sure as Tuesday follows Monday, as sure as night follows day, as sure as DFS having a sale next Bank Holiday, the rags' path to oblivion continues to gather pace.
Grimsby had a third goal disallowed for no discernible reason (that I could see, anyway), but in the penalty shoot-out whenever a rag scored they were celebrating like they had achieved some kind of spectacular sporting feat: fists clenched in triumph, a joyous celebration of man over adversity, a cataclysmic event to rival such moments as Roger Bannister's 4-minute mile, the 'one small step for man' moment, or the fall of the Berlin Wall, or even when it was revealed to us who shot JR Ewing. These rag players were acting as if they had won the C.L. and they were down to 9 men practically the whole game.
I watched it unfold and I could not believe what I was seeing. A team that cost millions and millions to assemble celebrating scoring a penalty against Grimsby Town.

They are in crisis, despite our media claiming the opposite. A spent force whose desperate attempts to stay afloat (let alone compete) in the 21st Century are looking as futile as telling a BleuMoon mod it's his round.

That rat Fernandes was giving the smug look to Grimsby fans after scoring his pens, and that's their captain, pathetic isn't even the word for it.

Embarrasing result but just as bad was singing about us ALL game.

Kicking a blue etc. Yeah course you do.

Daft obsessed red cunts

They’d rather sing about us ( when they claim they don’t care about us it’s the red scousers who they view as rivals) than get behind their team especially when your 2 goals down..

Some rumours on social media that Amorim has resigned and Burnley will be his last match

I wouldn't be surprised. He sounded as if he knew he'd lost the dressing room in his post match interview and once that happens it's over. The telling point in his bizarre speech was him saying he can't change twenty two players. The international break gives the rags two weeks to get somebody else in, probably a stop gap.

Was there at the BA too. Last minute goal wasn't it? Maybe not. Was a long time ago.

Were you the dickhead who elbowed me in the face?

That dressing room seems unmanageable. Every single manager that goes there tries to stamp their own way of playing, but the players never follow any of them and they revert back to counter attacking vibes based football that lacks structure.

Has any other major European club become as completely and sustainably shit, as they have?

Some have had little catastrophic spells but bounce back in a few years.

Just seem to be getting worse and worse and worse, everything and everybody they touch just crumbles into dust.

And yet still get reported on at times as challenging for the top honours ..

Wanna see some top class berting on those rags today.

I don't need to.

The station supervisor of one of the gobbiest rags at work has put him on platform duties we dispatch our Trains to Grimsby off.

He's gonna love doing mine later....
