  1. It's also that the BJP have tied themselves very closely with India's national sport. Not that it's particularly unique, most nations use sport for propaganda, but it's funny seeing Modi get a bloody nose by being forced to watch India lose in the giant stadium he had built in his home town and named after himself.
  2. I don't pay any attention when you brand something racist because it lost all meaning long ago. You're the type of person who would claim the moon was racist if the tide was in when you went to the beach.
  3. Yes, but they were censoring the people Stive didn't like, so they were the goodies. I think it's terrible that twitter/x haven't given Stive a pocket mod to delete anything he doesn't approve of. Perhaps he's been spoiled in that regard by certain other websites?
  4. I'm stumped with this one. I know we've been battered a few times away at Coventry, but I really don't think it was this particular season. I'll guess 2004 Coventry.

    Nigel Clough

    He's right. Any clown who dances after successfully doing their job belongs in the circus.
  6. I agree. That team was great fun to watch. Idiakez is the only player I can think of where you'd be more confident of him scoring a 30 yard free kick than a penalty. I though Reich was really good too. He was massive in us surviving relegation in 03/04.
  7. Forest? I think Rasiak got a brace against them that year.
  8. There's so many B4isms stuck in my brain that I always think of them whenever the player or word in question comes up. Our forum and fan base in general will suffer from his absence. RIP.
  9. I utterly despise scum that think it's ok to tackle like that. I genuinely hope the p**** is on the end of a career ender himself sooner rather than later.

    Palestine

    To paraphrase Groucho Marx, I don't want to belong to any club that want me to accept their members.

    Palestine

    I'm hoping to see the queers for Palestine out again. They're my favourites.
  12. Disappointing that there isn't more about his time playing at Derby, but understandable since he has done so much. A big eye opener was him saying that our wage bill was higher than Villa's when he joined. I would've also liked to hear about his time in the ISL.
  13. I might be way out, but is this a cup game at Craven Cottage? 2014.
  14. He's not aiming for Johnson. He tries to hip check the guy with the puck.

    Pearson gone

    Looking at the comments Bristol City fans were still backing him. How does Pearson do it? This is the same fan base that wanted Lee Johnson and Dean Holden's heads on pikes. Pearson also managed to convince many Leicester fans that he won the Premier League. Maybe Paul Warne should give him a call to get some tips on gaslighting people into thinking you're doing a way better job than you actually are.
  16. Really awful. I remember seeing the footage of Clint Malarchuk getting the same injury in an NHL game. You literally see blood spurting into the air with each beat of his heart. Luckily for Malarchuk, his team's physio was a former combat medic and he survived, but suffered from PTSD. Neck guards will be made mandatory now and, they probably already should've been. These injuries are rare in hockey, but not unheard of. It's not deliberate. No hockey player would do that. However, it's clumsy and irresponsible. You have a responsibility not to put yourself in a situation where a missed hip check will result in your skates flying up at head height.
  17. 2006 and looking at the personnel, would this be Billy Davies' first game? I have no idea on the opponents though. Southampton?

    Wayne Rooney

    That hair transplant looks worse every time I see it.
  19. Stumpings aren't in the "the spirit of cricket". Sri Lanka should be ashamed of themselves.

    Jordon Ibe

    You guys went to the trouble of necroing this thread 3 months after Magicman's last post. It's clearly working regardless of how hard they're trying.

    Palestine

    It's good to correct the record because it is irritating when a quote is erroneously attributed to someone, but I don't see how it's fair to dismiss what is a rather generic truism because of who originally coined the phrase.
  22. We were woeful that year and should've been relegated. Phillip Cocu was in charge for just 11 games. There's no denial that it was a terrible start and I can't really defend Cocu on that front, but if it's the worst season you've seen in 40 years, it's 75% Rooney's fault.

    Wayne Rooney

    It will be very interesting to see how he gets on. It's difficult to appraise his managerial career so far due to the unique situations at both clubs. His win percentage stats are utter garbage, but the expectations at Derby and DC didn't really extend beyond "try not to finish bottom". Birmingham have sacked a guy who had them 6th and implied that Rooney will bring a more exciting and attacking brand of football. Even the Rooney fanboys won't be able to pass off a lower mid table finish as succeeding against impossible odds, although I'm certain they'll try.
  24. 2014 wasn't it? One of my favourite ever games. The 5-0 is special, but it wasn't just that. This game was the culmination of a 5 year stint of the rivalry being particularly heated, fuelled primarily by Billy Davies. He still hasn't managed a single game of football since this match, nearly 10 years ago. That's how comprehensively we beat them, we ended Davies' career.
  25. For the most part I agree, but you won't see anything change. Once people have made their minds up about something they are unlikely to change, so you'll see plenty more threads where a 2-1 away win is treated as a failure because it wasn't won in the correct manner with the correct players on the pitch. I disagree with the idea that any of this nonsense should affect the players. They're paid to be professional and if they're negatively affected by some chants or things written on internet forums then they have no business in professional football.
