Perhaps we could offer deals for different people?

A fiver for a Diver?
A tenner for a Tenor?
A pony for anyone called Tony?
A monkey for anyone who is chunky.
A grand for a Farmhand?
 

Not sure we should allow anyone in for a score, though!  ?

 

 

Made me laugh a lot more than I think It should have.

Fair play to him for sticking it to them.

Exactly correct. Well said.

Which goal scoring opportunity did it stop? Sharp no longer has the ball at his feet when he’s fouled, so how is he supposed to have a clear goal scoring opportunity?

He passed the ball around Roos. He had to knock It far enough away from him to get It round him, he knew exactly what he was doing, and did It very well, Roos was stupid commuting that far out with no chance of getting the ball. 
like I said, if It had been the other way around you would be screaming for him to be sent off.

Penalty or red card Roos wasn’t on for the penalty. He fouled Sharp but it didn’t deny him of the goal scoring chance because the ball had been passed out wide.

Sorry. Two separate incidents. 
He certainly knew what he was doing to get Roos sent off, but It was a sending off no question.

So why did Sharp pass the ball? To be a red card, it basically has to be a foul that stops a player who’s about to score a goal.  Passing the ball to a teammate is the thing you can do that makes it the most obvious that you *weren’t* about to score.

Nope, It has to be stopping a clear goal scoring opportunity, which It was. 
It was a sending off. A stupid sending off by Roos but a sending off.

He'd already played a pass by the time Roos fouled him so it wasn't a denial of an obvious goalscoring opportunity. Definitely not a red.

Rash decision from Roos to come out though.

It was definitely a penalty, 100%. He knew what he was doing for sure, waited for Roos and made Roos look a clown, but It was a penalty. 
Put It this way, if It had been then other way around you would have been screaming for It 

Roos 0 - we would have won this game with 11 men on the pitch  

Byrne - 7

Buchanan - 7

Jagielka - 9 awesome  

Davies - 9 would have been 10 but for the handball…. Still amazing performance though 

Shinnie - 10 outstanding  

Bird - 8 another solid game 

Morrison - 4 didn’t notice he was on the pitch really 

Sibley 3 the only time I spotted him was when he was pulled up for being offside all the time 

Lawrence 5 oh Thomas, what were you doing at the end…?

Baldock 4 should have scored but lacked much service.

I thought that at the time, you could see the United players in disbelief saying he’s last man. Ref went to his leg pocket to get the yellow, had a little walk about and pulled out the red.

It was definitely a red card. Stupid decision by Roos. 
 

Rooney just said allsopp is playing Wednesday. 

So close. Gutted. 
100% red card and penalty. 

Pay off Keogh in 1 penny pieces and make him drive (oh sorry he cant) to the club every week to collect his next 1 pence.

Buy the stadium off Mel and sell it to my wife, then get her to sell it back to me, then sell it to my son, then back to me, then to me son, then get him to sell it to my wife, then back to me and keep doing this on and on and on live on TV in the car park at Boro in Steve Gibsons parking spot..

Put on a gig at Pride Park with Paul Heaton headlining it and the Wedding Present as support, give all the tickets away and get @Inverurie Ram to be the host of it all.

Send over a crate of Belgium beer to @Eddie, a pink kit to @B4ev6is and some koi carp to @David 

The rest I would just waste on stupid stuff.

Rooneys stole the wheels

tell me how good does It feel

We’ve got no money left in the bank

Our owner is not worth a bank(W)

da da da da da da da da da da da da

negative points on the board

duck you all..

IMHO is... I believe... bi-lingual, as the aitch can also stand for "Honest" as well as "Humble".

I think that's right?  FIIK!   

Wow, you are so… young and hip.

Did you watch his press conference? 

I usually agree with you and have been pretty anti-Rooney until 7 days ago. But this gets top points for trolling and has put me in the invidious position of liking @MuespachRamposts!

Rooney can have lots of things levelled against him but if that press conference was the result of PR advice and he was posturing to the camera then I would be astounded. His PR team would surely have said 'be statesmanlike and rise above it' anyway. 

You could feel his change of tone when Mel was discussed. He obviously feels incredibly angry that he is now steering the ship but wasn't been given the common courtesy of the facts. He clearly has had staff coming to him and asking about their livelihoods and he has been in the dark. Some fans were speculating it was all a plan that Mel had made Rooney part of, but obviously that wasn't the case. Staggers me Mel has basically left him front and centre without giving him the heads up.

Nothing about paying for equipment and leading the team through an almost impossible situation seemed contrived to me. He made a comment about the players finding his 5min talk being more useful and heartfelt than Mel's 45mins, I don't see him pushing that idea as something that promotes him as a football manager, it's a personal thing that shows him as a decent bloke only.  It's also easily checked by asking the players. Clearly that comment was made to him by several players. 

As an aside, Mel's leadership has finished now.  No avoiding the conclusion it's been a shockingly bad period in retrospect. Like a drunk in Vegas constantly chasing his losses it's now come to its logical outcome. What remains to be seen is whether he wakes up with a banging head and realises he can show responsibility and good faith by slowly nursing the situation to its best possible conclusion (I still believe he will) or whether he is more akin to a Maxwell Mk 2 and having bleed his company dry he walks away from the situation with no self awareness or contrition. 

@DarkFruitsRam7 can you get a welcome pack sent out to put latest member of the cult please and thank you. 
welcome on board @Chester40 

invidious…. Excellent word by the way.

Having to constantly Google abbreviations and acronyms on an almost daily basis.

For instance, just a few seconds ago, I had to Google "FML".

I just read it, and thought WTF!   ?‍♂️

 

 

 

I was just reading a post on here and saw IMHO…. I had no idea what that meant…thought I would stretch my mind and try and work It out…. Did that for 3 minutes then googled It….all while sat on the toilet having a pee for a nice treat/rest…

(It means In My Humble Opinion….BTW) (BTW means by the way, by the way)

Who gave us no chance? Probably media types who don’t understand football at this level or those who wanted to feed the hysteria.

At this level, you’ve always got a chance. Wycombe, a club who don’t even particularly stand out at League 1 level, proved that. And so have countless others.

I am a supposed pessimist and I have predicted us to win several games this season.

The last two games were very impressive but overall 10 points from 24 is merely a decent return, one that could have been better given the opposition. We have dropped seven points from winning positions, let’s not forget.

Let’s see how the players respond on Saturday. A spirited performance would be so encouraging to see.

Everyone gave us no chance, there was a time that you couldn’t even get a bet on Derby to stay up…

as for Wycombe proving that you always have a chance….they were absolute garbage last season, let’s not pretend anything else, and they went down, they lost 25 games….and had a negative 30 goal difference…let’s not pretend they were ever anything else but rubbish….even we managed to beat them…!!! 

I pee in the shower at work almost every day…

It’s not about whether I like him or not. I don’t know him. None of us do. Nor do we know what is said and done behind the scenes. We only know what we are told.

If it was Cocu, Lampard, Rowett, or even the one and only King Billy, I would say exactly the same. They are just doing their jobs.

I am totally behind the club. At 3 o clock on Saturday, the boys will have my full attention, much to my girlfriend’s disappointment.

Yes, our survival is at stake. But choice words in a press conference won’t get us out of our predicament, winning football matches will.

If Rooney is a leader, let’s see him lead us to victories against all odds, and then we can get the bagpipes out.

By two takeaways from this drivel are…

one and only King Billy…. Oh sweet William…

and 

bagpipes….!?? Bagpipes.!!? Really ?

Rooney’s PR team are good, very good.

Give yourself a day off. 
the guy is speaking from his heart and making some pretty mature sensible and emotional points. 
 

Well Wayne, what a stirring press conference that was. 
 

the dumb, money grabbing scally from the council estate of Liverpool outsmarting the multi millionaire smooth talking businessman. 
love to see It. 
 

thanks Wayne, you shouldn’t have to put up with all this, and I’m not sure many others would have.

Totaly agree. Rooney playing to the gallery of the press. Cheap and unnecessary. Ok he is miffed that Mel hasn't spoken but Rooney went too far.  

Break me a give. 

I just finished listening to It. 
I can’t stand Dawes, his comments abs commentary are almost 100% drivel and self serving rubbish, BUT he was excellent on this program today, you can tell It is hurting him just as It is us all. Well done. (Still won’t be listening to him on Saturday though!)

as for Rooney….oh my, that boy is a legend. 

In the grand scheme of things It wasn’t that bad…but I felt awful doing It. 
I was applying for a new job, I have never done It before so felt bad enough as it was…. I sent off 2  applications to different companies, both really great fits for me, during the interview process I realised I liked the sound of one of the two jobs more than the other….of course I got offered the one I didn’t like as much…but It was still great so I took It….

on Day 2 of my new job after all the on boarding, meet and greets, free stuff handed out to me, tours of the facility, security clearance approval, free dinners etc etc I was offered the other job I applied for…. After a sleepless night I went to work and told them that I was quitting after 2 days….. felt terrible but to be fair they were totally fine with me, let me leave that afternoon and I haven’t looked back since  

short term pain long term gain  but I felt like the biggest poo in the world doing It  

Happy 51st Birthday. Loads and loads more to come.
