I won’t mention Coal Palmer then …

It seams you just did.

 

[The Future’s Blue!]

ESPN (on United): "There has been some improvement this season, but it's now just three wins from eight to start the campaign".

Why do they write utter bollocks??? They've been as equally bad as they have been over the last 12 years.

I agree with them, there’s been some improvement towards being even shitter than their previous seasons. What they meant to say was ‘decline’, but the Rags wouldn’t click on that.

You rightist defending the media and modding this forum in their favour, cannot deny that Islamophobia is an institutionalised british media trait, be it politics, football or cooking, everything is related, the dialectics of blighty capitalism.

That said: Ding Dong the witch is Dead.

That's the pits, you slaaaag.

How is it tha Rat Face was allowed to be interviewed by Sky after he'd been sent off today?

Are they planning to use that interview as 'Exhibit A' at his disciplinary hearing on Monday?

We need this geezer to get the thread back on the rails...

"It's grade one youth development. It is also a very useful revenue stream for one of the few clubs who do not need to stress about meeting the Premier League's profit and sustainability rules."

The narrative suits when it suits.

How the fuck does Rico get missed out of the analysis when City academy players playing for England.

Trippier is also one of our academy products going further back.

That's a good point.
Cannot remember a player pleading his innocence after a red card ?
This may make good television, but is a dangerous precedent.
Bet that Sky will push for more such interviews though...

I must of missed Rodri's innocent plea after the Forest game last season

Because in many cases in several nationalised industries it was often true.

Good men,families and communities sacrificed by ideological vandalism including many close to where I live in South West Yorkshire.

Scargill, who lives very,very comfortably on his union pension,is detested by many who have seen the light !!

How much do you think was pumped into the banks to dig them out of the economic fuck up they put the country in.

The miners family’s were queuing up at soup kitchen during their troubled times.

The bankers would still be quaffing champagne while the rest of the population and the country paid the price.

 

[Bald fraud]

Are sky sports news playing the Fernandez “slip” on a loop and desperately trying to get the red overturned?

 

[TinFoilHat]

Rags PR team has sent out the memo to tell tell journos to refer to them as; "A traditional big 6 team" instead of fucking shite.

Please stop the politics. There is a specific section where posters can argue all they want.

The start of the interview was the interviewer saying "you asked to speak to us" It might be a case of players seeing red not asking. His wasn't a red card and as captain he probably wanted to explain it. Fair play for fronting up, he's still a twat though.

I don't imagine that sky will extend the offer of immediate appeal via post match interview to any clubs other than the rags and dippers so don't worry about a dangerous precedent.

Ah yes. Traditional. Or it can be read as: "we have a divine right to be up top, because we used to be good." Pathetic. Step up your game or go away. Nobody has a right to be up top because of their past. Otherwise Preston North End, Huddersfield or Sheffield Wednesday would like to have a word.

 

[r.soleofsalford]

Nationalised industries were subsidised and provided with huge government grants /soft loans ....and remained uneconomic due to overstaffing, inefficiency and low productivity along with long and destructive political strikes !!

What the country put into nationalised industries doesn`t come close to what the government of the day put into the banking sector where unlike the miner, the banking executives individually made millions and laughed at the population and tax payers while stuffing their pockets.
