same thing he tries to do every match , play football, hes just not very good at it

 

[Tuearts right boot]

Fuck me - 2 minutes of that slapped arse was enough. "I can't enjoy it anymore - VAR's killing the game..."
You can't enjoy it anymore more coz you're a red nosed ****; City are great, and United are shite!

Scum.

Who is this guy, is he qualified to spout forth shite or is he just another bloke in the pub with a live stream.

Brilliant and I`ve often wondered if Oasis nicked this concept video for one of theirs, but I can`t remember what the song was.Certainly had the undertakers and a coffin.

What a tune!
That promotional video got banned by the beeb for bad taste(the bloke jumps out of the coffin) and probably stopped it getting to no.1 because it was due to be shown on tv when was flying up the charts, but it stalled at no.5.

Shite!! Maybe I'm not such a FOC then after all.

the media around this game is a disgrace, its basically a united pr job but even worse than usual, take away all the supposedly dodgy decisions and var etc and look at the fact that the rags were two goals up when this happened, it wasnt 0 - 0 or even 1-0, they had an attacker sent off and then blew a 2 goal lead and then after blowing a 2 goal lead, then proceeded to blow the lead again.

All the var and down to 10 men bollocks does not excuse that and the press should be embarrassed of themselves that they are bringing out every ex red and pathetic cry baby that they can to whitewash over this and make united look like hard done to heroes.

And long may it continue. The biggest hindrance for any betterment of their situation is the fact that they're victims of their previous success. As long as the press, their fans and the club itself see themselves as a 'big special club' they won't commit to the neccessary rebuild of the whole rotten organization. Having American oligarch owners also helps :)

So; how have the fans of "The World's Greatest Club"™ been today at school/college/work? Been fairly quiet here, to be honest. That "we're back" stuff from a week or so back didn't last too long. The most I got was a couple of "fuck offs". I can’t think why.

One of the annoying young fuckers didn't have a clue what I have been humming all day - Wonderful Wonderful Copenhagen - until one of the older raggies (who had already told me to do one early doors) called me a bitter twat.
I asked - 'So when we were shite we were bitter. Now we're head and shoulders and so far in front of you - we're still bitter.' Oh how I laughed.
He then proceeded to explain what the song was to the young raggie.
Both called me sad. I walked away shaking my head.

Penny for Eriksen’s thoughts.

He literally died on a football pitch a while back, yet playing for the rags now is arguably the low point of his football career.

Eriksen's thoughts:
Opens banking app and checks balance.
Opens investments app and checks pension.
Realises he's more chance of being handed a trophy by PiGMOL and VAR at the rags than at Brentford.
Happy days.

Was it the Importance of Being Idle?
