Dimmu Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 Serie A.For example Parma hasn't paid their players wages whole season. Last home game was postponed 'cause they didn't have money to pay for security...Otherwise the the whole league is just boring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
May Contain Nuts Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 "These racists are not fans of football" - Chris Ramsey after the Chelsea metro incident. So he's saying these people who have travelled across the Channel to watch their team aren't football supporters. Well then what are they? They weren't Chelsea Pensioners out in Paris looking for cheese and baguettes and sightseeing at the Eiffel Tower. It's moronic behaviour but they are football fans - you can be a racist and be a football fan. In fact they must be seeing as Chelsea have banned three of them from Stamford Bridge. That's just an example of the lazy language as far as I can tellBetween 'not' and 'fans' add the words 'indicative of the mentality of the vast majority of' and 'it's almost fine, and that's pobably what they mean - but thinking of and saying that would take them beyond their allotted 10 seconds of talking time , so they condense it because that's what they've been taught to d so by twitter, and subsequently come across as sound-bite idiots.

Ambitious Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Kilbane has sent a letter of complaint to the FA over West Ham fans singing: 'Harry Kane talks like a **** and plays like one too' I'm not joking. He said it needs to stop so he can take his kids to football matches. I don't think I have ever seen anything quite as ridiculous. I think Kilbane deserves a lifetime ban for even thinking it's worth discussing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duracell Posted February 24, 2015 Author Share Posted February 24, 2015 I don't, or at least didn't.Still, I just think it's too much. Perhaps I have lower moral compass that the normal man/woman, but it's a word I've said and been heard said since I was at primary school. It just seems silly to me.

JoetheRam Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 That Barclays advert with Alan Shearer and his Cheshire cat grin rattling on about the pies, the best fans in the world, the first time he saw the Gallowgate...All to tell us how wonderful the sponsors are and how, despite contributing to the greed is good culture of our top league and our country in general, they're in it for the people.Wonder how much he got paid for that?

Bris Vegas Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 This stupid perception that the Premier League is the best in the world.They say the Champions League and Europa League have proven that it's not, but then the same old quotes have been thrown out: 'The Premier League is the most competitive in the world, Barca and Real just have easy wins every week.Why do these cretins make such comments without any substance whatsoever...Barcelona have lost 4 league games this season - including two at home against Celta and Malaga - you know the teams that just turn up and lose 8-0 according to these 'knowledgable fans',Real Madrid have lost five. Chelsea in contrast have lost 2.Barcelona are one point ahead of second, eight ahead of third. Chelsea are six clear of second, seven clear of third with a game in hand - So which league is more competitive?The top five in the PL - who predicted that at the beginning of the season. Erm, like 99.9%. Over the past 10 seasons, the CL entrees for the PL have been: Chelsea, Arsenal, United, Liverpool, City, Spurs - six teams.Over the past 10 seasons, the CL entrees for La Liga have been: Barca, Madrid, Atletico, Valencia, Malaga, Real Sociedad, Athletic Bilbao, Sevilla, Villarreal, Osasuna, Real Betis - 11 teamsNow ask yourself which league is 'more competitive' ???

Pearl Ram Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 Sky insisting on giving us close ups of Roman Abramovitch during any Chelsea game. Do we get close ups of the Southampton owner ?

JoetheRam Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 Reading.It's quite difficult to pinpoint exactly why, but they somehow have a collective unwarranted self smugness about them. They're ineffably plastic.I don't know if it's their ground being rediculously soulless and poorly located or their supporters chants of "106, we've got the record, 106" in response to questions over their historical status. Either way, Waitrose have no place sponsoring a football club.Maybe it's down to the way I get the sense that they are portrayed in a bit of a Southern media darlings way.They've always had a knack of employing seemingly horrible people in their ranks as well - I'm sure these people are fine really, but the way they come across on the pitch really gets my goat. Stephen "rhyming slang" Hunt, Kevin Doyle, Adam Le Fondre, Jamie Mackie, Chris Gunter... On top of this, their current manager Steve Clarke must be the dourmost of dour Scots ever. This man has never smiled or cracked a joke. Ever.Dislike is often irrational and this is no different - hope we smash them 5-0 on the last day.

Pearl Ram Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 I really got to disagree Joe, I'm putting forward one Paul Lambert as the most miserable sourpuss Scottish manager ever. I think he makes Clarke look quite jolly. But that's just me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leicester Ram Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 Michael Owen saying that Sterling's better than Ozil is utter ********, and sums up Liverpool so well. Sterling's clearly promising but Ozil is a World Cup, La Liga and Champions League winner, for f*cks sake, he's even won the FA Cup and is about to win it again.Their treatment of Ibe is sickening, he literally had a sort of decent game against Everton and hit the post; next day he's being made out to be a future world beater. What's he done since? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duracell Posted March 30, 2016 Author Share Posted March 30, 2016 Had to resurrect this thread again, because I made the mistake of reading the BBC Gossip column. Forgot how much it winds me up. Why is it that whenever a big club is linked with a player from Porto, Benfica or Sporting, they ALWAYS have to mention a ridiculous release clause? Does the Daily Mail really have access to the small print on the contracts of every player in Portugal under the age of 21? And they always get linked after doing nothing as well. "Manchester United are keeping taps on Porto striker Lucas Incrediblo, 18, who has played 7 minutes for the Portugese club. United could activate his 800 gazillion euro release clause." I remember Lucas Paizon was apparently going to be sold for £80 million at one point as well. He went for around £5m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
