I'm saying the word "suffering" is now being glibly and routinely banded about by managers in various interviews when speaking about football. Quite simply, its a word that is being used completely out of context. Had it been used on the odd occasion then I doubt I'd have noticed. But the fact...

Well you watch all your football on a laptop, with multiple random teams, so I'd venture you are not invested enough in any football club to ever experience emotions such as anger, frustration, elation, or just being mightily pissed off. If or when you ever make that step, you might be able to...

I was pissed off that whole weekend and beyond. But to describe it as suffering is just melodramatic Potterspeak bollocks. Suffering death threats - THATS suffering. Not seeing Havertz spoon another limp effort into the stands in a 0-0 v Bournemouth.

This insidious phrase "suffering" has wormed its way into footballspeak in the last year or so, and IMO it has no place in it. To describe a team getting outplayed, falling back and riding their luck under pressure as "suffering" is bloody ridiculous. Its a word used completely out of context...

Oh, this x100 I am absolutely sick to death hearing about teams "suffering". I'm sure its GP who kicked off this tedious turn of phrase. "We had to suffer to get the result" "We as a club are all suffering a bit at the moment" "The second half we had to suffer" etc etc etc NO. People in...

If he'd come out with this on MOTD - fair game The fact he's used his own Twitter account - as a freelance contractor - to give his opinion...where does the BBC get off on this ? Pathetic. They have no right to gag him. They can bin him, thats their right. But to do it over this, cowing to this...

What a nice chap.

Sadly Billy met his demise that afternoon at the hands of Lewis Dunk. He was given a ceremonial burial at sea the following morning in front of a small congregation at the end of the Palace Pier, as they observed his embalmed corpse slip down off the helter skelter, where his body was finally...

Quite timely this. Me and the doris are booked into Las Iguanos in Jubilee Street this very evening. I'm a huge fan of latino / mexican food, the Trip Advisor reviews are decent. Plus it plops us into North Laine, which is not a territory we have overly investigated pub-wise (we usually head for...

Hollyoaks ?

Bless you.

Its just an archaic organisation. Occasionally in my line of work we have to obtain a certificate of residency from HMRC for an overseas client if they ask for one (basically proof that the business is legitimate and registered as a UK company). For such a simple document you'd think you could...

I used to work with a Palace fan who was an alright bloke, bit of a poser, but was a genuine fan who went to most games. We'd exchange the usual type of "banter" emails with some gentle ribbing. That all changed one day when I quite innocuously emailed him "Happy Cantona Day" on whatever date it...

Everything Everywhere All At Once I can't even begin. Probably the weirdest film I've ever seen. MIchelle Yeoh and Jamie Lee Curtis are excellent, the fight scenes are incredible, the parts where they have hot dogs for fingers are...well. I can't score it because tbh I'm not even sure if I...

Yep, no questions about his attitude. Seems like a god lad, good luck to him.

Ferguson has put paid to any lingering chances he'd have had at BHA. He already looks 3x the player.

My last visit. I've never been since, I will never go again. Its not just the result that day. The whole awayday experience is an absolute shitshow. The whole place is a slum, you can't go for a decent pint anywhere, and you're treated like filth by the met. I just can't be arsed any more.

Richarlison is a cossetted moany little slag. He knows Conte is gone in a couple of months time, so he's quite comfortable running his mouth off now. He's another Bruno Fernandes - good player, but high maintenance and an absolute twat when he perceives things aren't going his way.

Firstly, congrats for being on a moving train on Saturday. Not something you can ever take for granted. I definitely feel NSC has become FAR more accessible on mobiles since the switch, I barely bothered on my phone prior to it. Now I'm quite a regular mobile visitor, so not surprised its being...

Chromebook at home, PC at work (or also when WFH). I never used to bother with NSC on my phone, as I found Tapatalk to be absolute GUBBINS. However, since switching to this new messageboard, I find the NSC app on my phone to be more than acceptable. So I do find myself quite often having a...
