Didn’t baconface only win it twice in fuck knows how many years

27 years, wasn't it? 1986 to 2013. Granted, those first 7 or 8 years*, they weren't in the competition, but even so.


*When was the qualifying extended to 4 clubs; early 90s?

I think the total opposite. He’s acknowledging his allegiances (which he often does) whilst giving an honest and forthright appraisal, which was unqualified praise of City and our manager.

Depends on your definition of bias I guess, but by your metric any ex-player with an affinity with a former club is biased, irrespective of what they say.

I was just relived he didn’t bore us all to death about off road parking…..

Weghorst hit the post as well. Well I saw a pic of him kicking it anyway, very very close to putting something in the net, so there’s another positive he can take away from his glittering united career of 2 goals (which is 2 more than I thought he’d scored!)

Didn’t that Gus guy on here tell us to sign this goal shy merchant?

Even a stopped clock etc.

Being 90% deaf, I rely on sub titles on tv etc. Apparently Cheesy signed off his vlog yesterday with:
”Isn’t it great to be a balloon.”
If you say so, Cheesy.

Five to two.


You're welcome.

Apologies of this has already been posted, but some classic match ratings here from Jamie Jackson, especially Gundagon. A class above yet rated at 6 hahahahaha.

On a weekly basis he challenges his Editor to sack him for incompetence, incredible effort.

The fact he’s still employed as a sports journalist underlines the paucity of talent in the profession.

Martin Samuel's latest.

A great read as ever, thanks for posting.

On a different note, be nice for Samuel and all the other West Ham fans to enjoy a European victory on Wednesday night.

Hmm, my guess would be both.
