I didn't know Nevin was pally with Sam Allardyce. What a pile of bollocks. This week Tony Pulis was bemoaning "playing it out from the back and "tippy tappy" football. These sort of dinosaurs almost destroyed English football. It is amazing how their cultish views still linger on with some people.

Don't forget these were Purple noses huge contenders of the day. And that's really how tough the rags had it

Never thought I would agree with Murphy lol.

He sounds like Indecisive Dave from the Fast Show

Shills like Winter have clearly been given the brief from the RAGS PR engine

I would have thought any half arsed DoF would have the same copy of Football Manager 24 to scout players?

Its shameful that we have to continually listen to these dinosaurs harking back to the 'good old days' of jumpers for goalposts and hoofing it up to the big fella, they are a relic best confined to the past but no we have to keep hearing from the gpcs disciples of big sam, tony pulis, roy hodgson and all their media cronies, the world has moved on but they steadfastly refuse to denigrating any level of change or newness, we routinely ridicule focs shouting at clouds on here when the reality the press and football is absolutely full of them, pep, kdb and haaland have about as much in common with these fools as @bluemist does with making a relevant point ;) but yet we still employ them and let them commentate on stuff that is entirely beyond their realm of understanding, football punditry has turned into the gb news of sports.

Got to love The Athletic. Of course they use this photo in the heading, even though the article itself states that City actually have the joint fewest bookings in the league for dissent.

Think both Pulis & Allardyce were also great pals with the GPC.
They hung on his every word.
Would be interesting to see how Bolton & Stoke did against the Rags ?
Remember the Panorama BBC Programme about Fergie's son becoming the preferred agent for MUFC transfers ? Well, it also named Allardyce's son (Craig) getting up to the same scam...

Yep and their teams used to invariably bend over for him

 

[Asa's left peg]

I'll never forget Pulis' greatest tactical moment. ''Games won - don't need any forwards on now - pull the big guys off' and shore up the defence''. ''But boss, what if they score 2 in the last few minutes and go on to win on penalties and we remain in the second division?' '' Tactical genius that boy.

as i recall...'Big' Sam took a bit of umbrage to this documentary, and publicly stated that he was sending his lawyers right round to the BBC with a writ.....they never got there...

The last time the Rags won the champions league Motorola were the biggest selling mobile phone, Apple were still on the IPhone 1 & 6m units were sold worldwide, since then 2.32billion iPhones have been sold.

The world doesn’t stand still…… what was the most successful in 2008 isn’t likely to be in 2024.
