Tebas will be frothing at the mouth.

(Yep the athletic i know )

I'm pretty sure the rules changed in 2004 when Lomana LuaLua scored for Portsmouth against his parent club Newcastle and then Newcastle complained to The Premier League. The rules were then amended for the 2004/05 season that loan players could not play against their parent club in The Premier League.

Also remember around that time Tim Howard had a really shit game for Everton against his parent club the rags and eyebrows were raised.

​

Didn't the bully loan 2/3 top keepers around the league so they had to play reserve keeper against them
Not 100% but feels like this happened 1 season

A bloke I knew had a five and quarter inch floppy.

There's no stopping Old Father Time I'm afraid.

From memory … there was 5?

I remember the days of DOS 3.3… the skipped days of DOS 4.x and the joy of DOS 5…I think I went to a launch event for it… FOC

"Only" 6 from a quick Google, unless you wanted Work Groups which added another couple. It seemed like way more mind, not helped by how long each disk took to be read.

What about the Universe of Toffee?

Be a good username for one of theirs that!

Kin hell first news feed on my Google this morning ! What the fuck are they going to do for clicks when we are proven innocent ? It seems everyone thinks City are guilty.

Anything in between? So we’ve been found guilty then?

Surely the range should be from fuck all to relegation.

Chris Sutton can't believe that city aren't letting jack play against us on Saturday .

There was an Andy Dunn article in the Daily Mirror yesterday, about Jack not being able to play.
Although it did say that the Premier League were denying the current most exciting player in the PL, to play, it read as a hatchet job on City being the bad guys.
Oh, Andy Dunn supports Everton...

 

[give it to gordon]

This should Jack play against us the press/media are seriously thick.
Imagine if Jack scored an own goal, gave a penalty away, seriously injured a City player, Jack had a poor game etc. These same press/media would be screaming Jack deliberately helped City.

As soon as a ref goes to Saudi to ref a game the thick cunts say he’s on our books but they actually want a player that we still pay & can control his future to play.

Ahhh Edit - DOS 5 heaven after the painful edlin.

Himem.sys
EMM386.exe
To be fiddled with The superb Manifest from Quarterdeck, to find memory holes to use in the above.

NB apologies to the nonIT nonFOC members for derailing the thread

Frantically running memmaker to get those pesky mem hungry drivers into upper memory so I could run Xwing on my 4mb machine.
Those were the days
I can barely remember those dos commands these days but it was fun. Especially staring at the screen for an hour watching defrag.

 

[roach3]

Sounds exactly like the one they did in march, updated to include cherki and reijnders

Click bait obviously working…

I know I shouldn’t
Honestly at the time there was only 100 clicks on that story hardly life changing.

Oh jolly day. It's Peps presser. Let's see what inane utterings the lemmings come out with that they think are really insightful, intelligent questions that they will pose to Pep.

I love the look of utter disdain, and irritability Pep has at times with the UK mob. The foreign press do actually ask about football and have more knowledge and RESPECT for Pep - a behaviour sadly lacking towards him by any of the British 'all teams in red cartel' media fanboyz.

It's the hope that will kill them.

( rather like for me when Arseanal and Dips keep getting injury time winners.....)

 

[Resurrection Joe...]

Surely the range should be from fuck all to relegation.

the range should be from financially taking the internal organs of the PL' to ' relegation / expulsion.
This puts fuck all...mid range.

 

[Joe Corrigan's Superstitions]

Mostly positive article in the DM today about the two Peps and others' impact on the team this season. Think we can all agree Pep 2 has had a positive influence on our directness and energy levels.

Fucking hell what's new.

 

[mattcity5]

Only seeing quotes from Pep on BBC Sport at the moment, about how long he's staying and answering about if he needed a break.

I'd like to know what questions were asked to prompt his responses if anyone knows?

No f*cking way any of them would have been asking Ferguson about him going when he'd been at the club ten years. No f*cking way.

He said he'd think about it in 2035.

Anything but an arse-licking question, was "rewarded" with a press-ban for the reporter.
I really hope the media have the bottle to fully expose his bullying behaviour, when he croaks it.
Perhaps a few referees might also find a pair of bollocks and share some stories ?
