What the **** is wrong with those Hull defenders?
You are supposed to be professional footballers?

Why the **** would you stand there, throwing your hands up and looking around for a reason that the opponent has the ball??
Go tackle him you useless ****.
 
Unrelated but never in a million years will I understand why Birmingham sacked Gary Rowett to appoint Zola.
 
Next years Christmas fixture dates.


Next Christmas should be interesting!

If you think this PL holiday fixture list is mad, here's next year: December 16/20/23/26/30 January 1. World Cup follows. Utterly Bonkers.
 
Only the 5 in 2 weeks. Nice.

Of course we still need to see Chelsea's separate schedule .....

Quite the disparity the last week or so:

Southampton club captain Jose Fonte has handed in a transfer request.http://bbc.in/2iFr3lc
4:01 PM - 5 Jan 2017


Guess that puts to bed thoughts of Van Dijk leaving then.

Interesting, wonder where his offer is coming from, as he clearly must have a club wanting him to do this. To be fair to Fonte he has been very loyasl to Southampton and been with them a long time. I think if anyone deserves one last career change it's him, plus at his age it's kind of last chance saloon.

So long as he's out the side the league cup he can go where he wants. :D.
 
Putting this here as it pertains to all football fans .....

Another great Wrap show with a lad from one of Celtics main fan groups about rail seats and the massive benefit it's had at Parkhead. Great that we're even having the discussion finally in England but I sadly doubt we'll ever go back to standing areas. (I certainly know L'pool never will for obvious reasons as much a many would love us to.). The cost to convert grounds and then clubs having to drop prices down in those areas will probably never ever ultimately fly with the greed of clubs down here. From someone who but for the grace of God was lucky not to pay the ultimate price following my team I'm 100% behind the return of safe standing FWIW. Clubs used the safety aspect as a convenient excuse to print money by switching to seats back the '90's. Which most people still stand in regardless. Completely against safety regulations. But more often than not when they need the support, the clubs completely turn a blind eye to it. The hypocrisy over this issue with football clubs is sickening.

Anyway, as they've put this one out free and I can share it's well worth the half hours listen:

Whomever that 8% of people are they have WAY more problems than anyone they're discriminating against. They need to take a SERIOUS look at themselves.

Absolutely ridiculous that this is still even an issue in 2017. And to society's complete detriment that players have to live a lie rather than suffer at the hands of the neanderthals by coming out.

That would be a big *** N O! to the question in case I left it ANY doubt.
 
when i saw it and it said 8% i could not get my head round it thinking in this day and age how could it be so its like its 1917 not 2017
 
That is quite a shocking statistic.

I personally dont agree with homosexuality, HOWEVER, would that stop me going to a game? No. Would that make me not talk to a person? No. If its having absolutely no effect on me, why would I care?

In the same way I dont agree with smoking, doesnt mean I treat someone different.

It does amaze me how many people think they can control other peoples lives
