Let's just be glad he's a better negotiator than he was a keeper.

Re: Final 6 games predictions

Let's just remember who we are -

We will drop into the play-offs, scrape into the final with Birmingham, lose convincingly and spend another year being mocked by our WHU supporting mates.....

Re: Stoke show RFC how to run a Real Football Club

I could be wrong here, but is this the same Stoke that had it's £24 Million debt written off by Peter Coates?

Is this a sustainable model?

What happens when he either :-
    Gets bored,
    Dies,
    Had up on US gambling charges?

Re: Next seasons promotion prospects

This is nothing like 1995 when not only did we lose everyone but (with all due respect to Quinn/Gooding) we lost our great manager just before. Players come and go but we still have our most important asset: the one and only BRIAN MCDERMOTT :D I had the same conversation with my brother-in-law on t...

Re: No Ambition

Anytime that you don't want your benefactor amy more then feel free to send him the short distance up the M4 to where he would be appreciated. Where would you be without him? But the point is that he's not a benefactor - and that's what some people have a problem with. He puts no money into the clu...

I was at Wembley with my M...

Worried about a 'sex tape' coming out now.

Not very interested in the going ons of a bunch of over paid morons, but the NMA animated news made me laugh.

Re: Generic clubs in financial crisis Thread

I saw the other day that Crystal Palace Administrators have extended the deadline for buyers till the 26th I think.

I assume this means they are having trouble finding a buyer. What happens if they fail, liquidation?

Did the Internet exist in 1995? Yes, but at 28k Ahhh, those were the days... If you were lucky. It certainly wasn't that common, and mainly for workplaces (email etc.) I first got email in '96 and hence t'net.

Re: QPR prediction thread

0 - 1 QPR

Tiredness finally gets to the players, team off the pace collectively.

Colin runs up to McD and screams in his face, then announces his retirement as 'job done'.

Mass hysteria on the team board, talk of relegation, and collective slashing of wrists.
