What I really enjoy about this thread is the quality of contributions - thoughtful, nuanced, firmly held yet respectful of the views of others, well-reasoned and cogently expressed - about précisely why it is that the rags are so shite.

You want some?

Just going to go and give her both barrels.


Oh Matron!!

You are Ryan Giggs and I claim my £5.

No nepotism, there then?

It’s nothing new there it’s been going on for decades - it’s the ushited way

I think it stems down to their scouting network.
It must be non existent. Lol

Wasn’t Wank-Bissaka about 800th on their list of potential right backs?

it’s amazing how similar their results in the GPCs last years are to ours under Pep…

It’s a bit uncanny to say the least mate …

Hahaha....that's him, Flying Pig. He is comedy gold. Quite funny at times.

Flying pigs rants are funny,the faux meltdown he has when maguire was warming up Sunday being a highlight.

Back in the day, we were having a pint one afternoon in the Blue Bell in Whitefield and sat at the table next to us was Dawn Acton, the Tracy Barlow actress, trying to have an orange juice in peace with what we assumed to be her boyfriend. Everyone kept looking over at her and eventually she goes to the bog, where clearly someone cornered her to talk about Corrie. She came back to her table, said “Fucking Tracy Barlow” grabbed her bag and her boyfriend and left. I did feel sorry for her.

I was queuing in Greggs once many years ago, I made eye contact with a woman stood alongside me, I immediately recognised her face from somewhere but couldn't quite place her.

Being a postie at the time I thought it must have been one of my customers so I said hello and proceeded to have a brief polite conversation asking how she was, had she had a nice Christmas etc

It was several hours later when it suddenly popped into my brain where I recognised her from... it was Hayley from Coronation street!

I wonder if he gets some stick from a Chesterfield Man Utd fan he'll call round to have a word like he has before.

Twitter trolls usually shit themselves at that point :)
