Wow, yes forgot about that story. The Equadorians will be absolutely devastated if they are kicked out - if that occurs and Chile go in their place, then Castillo may perhaps consider investing in a bullet proof vest. And checking under his car before getting in.
No. But what is new is that he's now got a high-profile billion pound team to mould into something useful - and he has to do it PDQ. Early indications, as most predicted, is that he will do well to be granted the time to do that in front of the entitled bunch of dicks who (it would appear) are...
"So there we have it - 25% of shots on target and probably 20% of those came in the last 10 mins. While it's understandable that things were not going to click straight away, 'Harry' did not pick his best 11 for a game that was a MUST WIN FFS. 'Harry' - this is not a league game over 38 games...
Added factor - the Christmas deccies will be fighting for space with all the World Cup clobber. You won't be able to move for flags, tinsel, footballs, trees and fairy lights.
I do have some sympathy, as outside of a bag of Skips, its largely impossible to eat a bag of crisps without there being some acoustic disturbance.
I ate a bag of roast beef Hula Hoops in the office yesterday, and in my head, it sounded like Concorde crashing into a saucepan factory. Despite...
I forget to mention. "It is what it is", then a suck of the teeth, in the manner of a Kwik Fit mechanic folding his arms, about to give you a guesstimate on how much it will take to replace your gearbox.
Interesting development.
I'm WFH today, so as is my WONT, I minced along for a cheeky bit of lunchtime lubrication at my local, which happens to be a Greene King. On settling down with a pint, a paper, and a bag of cheese and onion Discos, a couple of the staff were pinning up a load of those...
Its dog eat dog. We've just been royally shafted by Chelsea, I have absolutely no qualms if we do the same to another club.
"It is what it is" as someone once said with a nonchalant shrug, every other week.
Good grief. Being 4th after 6 games does not make us a "top 4 club" any more than Arsenal currently being top makes them Champions. :facepalm:
Any league table at this stage of the season is simply a form guide, nothing more nothing less. If Poch gets the job, or even shows a hint of interest...
Yes, I do remember Boro taking Chelsea's place in the old First Division and it all kicking off at the Bridge following the 2nd leg, leading to the EFL binning it off.
But this was back in the 80s. Football was a very different animal back then, with Chelsea being one of the main protagonists...
All Stars north v south utterly pointless. They do it in baseball (American League vs National League) but its just a meaningless exhibition game. Why add that to an already congested calendar ?
However. I've long been a fan of the concept of a relegation playoff. Bottom 2 go down, 18th place...
Ridiculous thread. Poch would not even give BHA a second look. Lets get real, he's probably barely heard of us.
He'll want a serious chequebook, and Europe. Neither of which he is going to get here. Spurs - PSG - Brighton ? Do behave. Why are we even discussing this ?
Quite amazing seeing their asset-stripping c*nt of an owner Hamilton going and standing amongst them at the Racecourse - not to say anything, but in the hope someone would lamp him so he could then swing the narrative towards them being "football hooligans".
To their credit, he came away...
