lol c&p mishaps huh

i was like that can't be a tranny no way

shit title

Don't worry. It'll be replaced by a thread title of "super quality" by the close of the window.

should have worked "'Avin' a Go" in there somehow

has snider had a hair transplant y/n

sorry, snyder

Does the league not allow tremas on shirts or do City not know their players' names?

At least ILF got it right: Sergio Agüero

Module is deliverable imo, thread starter to eat words come end of season.

I approve of 'EPL''s ascension to official status btw.

The other thing about the thread title - as well as google inaccessibility, it's passing-interest-proof. Other than the couple dozen of us, who is ever going to be intrigued to click on that?

don't be such a fucking snob

Is "the Module" Champions League qualification?

the module is whatever the guvnor sez it is sonny

I just miss the word Liverpool tied to not winning something in the thread title tbh

has snider had a hair transplant y/n

Definitely. That's why him and Wayne must be in the same team. Trading grooming tips etc.

Levy's plan to welcome Adebayor to the club goes a bit too far.

Chelsea teenager Oriol Romeu, who joined last week from Barcelona on a four-year deal, has revealed he would like to return to the Spanish giants in the future.
Full story: Metro

good luck chelsea

JEEZ GUYS SORRY THE THREAD TITLE CONTAINS NO REFERENCE TO LIVERPOOL NOT WINNING ANYTHING

I like the thread title's fusion of English traditionalism with modern continental techniques.

The other thing about the thread title - as well as google inaccessibility, it's passing-interest-proof. Other than the couple dozen of us, who is ever going to be intrigued to click on that?

Fair point - I've killed EPL in the thread title. Delivering the module there.

unilateral imo

original title lives on in bookmarks

what's the best website for streaming highlights of other sports? is there a 101gg for golf/tennis

Gah, I'm a big fan of 'EPL'! Will keep mouth shut. The unattractiveness comes from fusion of Dalglish & management speak imo, but yes, I agree with the benefit for passing trade.

Anyway, if I were a City fan I'd be concerned about what's coming from Mancini right now. He's already talking down their title chances and suggesting they might not have the right mentality. A++++ motivation there dude.

Dunno, I get the impression that in private Mancini's probably all "you must kill these guys, ALL of them! We must win the league" What he says to the media is another thing altogether.

Hart, Richards, Kompany, Lescott, Kolarov, De Jong, Silva, Yaya, Milner, Balotelli, Dzeko.

De Gea, Smalling, Ferdinand, Vidic, Evra, Nani, Carrick, Anderson, Young, Rooney, Welbeck.

Anyone got a decent Charity Shield stream?

There's this one: http://www.rojadirecta.es/goto/u20cup-ch05.blogspot.com/

Don't know if it's decent though.

feeling this new utd keeper

Fergie won't be delivering the module either if De Gea carries on like this.

I can see Fergie in two years repeating how he regrets not having bought Stekelenburg earlier, just as he keeps lamenting that he got Van der Sar too late.

Is De Gea wearing and old VdS shirt btw? Looks huge on him.

I wonder why the red-nosed old Scottish drunk keeps bunging secret fees to GestiFute for players like Cronaldo, Nani, Anderson, Bebe and De Gea?

Richards should've been off for that.

Yeah. It's been fairly fractious for an ostensible friendly

That was a pretty amazing team goal just then, how many passes in and around the area?

Mancini's inspirational Barry-for-Balotelli substitution looking pretty stupid now.

Yeah that was a great atrtack

This Cleverly guy looks a good player, is he English?

Lol-Kompany

'the Nani state', srsly?

Mancini won't be delivering the module either if they carry on like this, pretty lolworthy capitulation really...

Nani still the best player in the prem

Grant holt

Holt is even money to join Sunderland.

Those odds are for Joseph Anthony "Joey" Barton.

If QPR are really paying him 90k a week, he'll be going nowhere

He's likely to miss a third of the season after his final game shenanigans. That's like £1m for sitting around unless QPR work out a way to fine him.

run book on destination of no mark player
spread retarded ITK rumours on twitter
profit

lock thread

na

redknapp out

now lock this cunt

I have heard that Redknapp goes to Chelsea.

It has been said authoritatively but I feel that it will not happen.

The rest is close season.

hello football fans

a small question out of mild curiosity. last night my twitter timeline EXPLODED in unanimous hatred for someone called john terry. i assume this is a footballer. what has he done to be so bad & hated?

(bear in mind i assume all footballers are one or all of racist/homophobic/rapists/thugs given that the only times they impinge on my consciousness are because of one of those things, so to be EXTRA hated he must be really awful)

haha

lex

there is, iirc, a thread actually called 'john terry- why is he so bad & hated?'

i'm not sure it even explains so much as vents that hatred tho.

he is really, really awful- even for an english international millionaire professional footballer

And last night he got what he wanted most in all the world.

it's v hard to explain the difference between Terry and yr conception of pro-footballers in general except to say that Terry seems unhealthily comfortable with his lifestyle choices more than most players i guess

ah. ok. that thread's opening few posts are quite succinct. he really is that much worse than the rest? do even the fans of his club hate him? or maybe i just don't follow any of them. lol @ him being england CAPTAIN, why would they pick someone so unanimously reviled?

most of his club's fans like him, many England supporters like him, we'd have to go into the weird socio-geographic rifts that run thru the notion of supporting England too.

srsly don't believe lex has never heard the phrase 'john terry' before today given his sterling attempts to be the most extracurricular football player of all time with his forays into criminal justice, celebrity gossip etc

going into that would be about the only thing that could make football interesting for me!

xp i may have done but footballers' names mostly don't stick in the mind, they all blur into one all-cheating all-racist thug

maybe worth doing a 'the weird socio-geographic rifts that run thru the notion of supporting England' ILE thread

ambiguity of 'England' deliberate

i'm sure we've had some debate about it on the England manager threads but i don't know if there's a full-on thread dedicated to it

and possibly wider - english athletes in general? i have always found the assumption that english audiences are only interested in hearing about english sportspeople quite weird and frustrating

possibly relevant in OLYMPICS YEAR

also the thread on nationalism which was more US-centred i think. but i'm clearly in too funny a mood to argue about stuff today. don't know why tbh.

Union Jacks almost automatically make me boo and i can't explain that fully either.

He is the ur-cheating all-racist thug though. The thing that makes him particularly hateful is that he dresses this up in quasi-heroic for England and St George blather and whenever he gets called out on anything his usual response is "I didn't do it" even when it's caught on camera that he did.

oh god one of my friends delivered some a+++++ union jacks commentary on twitter the other day, if i knew how to screencap or anything i'd repost it somewhere

they're not as bad as st george's crosses obv but being surrounded by them in JUBILOLYMPICS YEAR is doing my blood pressure no good at all

yeah, i enjoy most sports but the combination of the Monarchy, the Olympics and a kind of One Show all-in-this-together Britishness is making me half pukey half psycho at the mo

lol @ him being england CAPTAIN, why would they pick someone so unanimously reviled?

he is especially representative imo

they all blur into one all-cheating all-racist thug

that thug is john terry, tbh

so would there be something in the theory that he is some sort of lightning rod focus for everything (fans) already hate about the sport? encapsulating all the negativity that you kind of have to ignore or do some suspension-of-disbelief shiz elsewhere?

that's pretty astute

I don't know that we ignore it, but yeah there might be something in that, especially in him wearing his ugliness/unthinkingness as a badge of pride.

There's also a monumental lack of self-awareness, combined with ruthless, a bit cheaty and morally-unmerited success, that is most distasteful. He reminds me a lot of Gordon Brown actually.

yeah it's true, and i kinda why i find the visceral hatred of him either hysteric/hyperbolic or just lame like the LOL JT IS A CUNT stuff which is an insult to the proud tradition of lol football via ken c and a hoy hoy

i was going to do a poll of most hateful golden generation player but i think ive brought enough rote negativism to the board as it is

nobody who has seen the super grainy footage of lampard jr and ferdinand sr trying to coerce blowjobs out of girls in ayia napa circa 2000 could plausibly argue that terry is an altogether worse category to them

My performance was on the same tape as a recording of Kieron and Frank with a couple of birds, but it wasn’t all at the same time.

I didn’t even know about what they had done, it was not all one big orgy, as was reported.

Somehow, the camera got nicked. About two weeks later I got a call from a newspaper about a video of me shagging a bird. I could have fainted.

The video was wrong, yet to me it was harmless, just part of growing up.

The truth is some women will do anything to crack on with footballers and, let’s be fair, which young players would pass up the opportunity to take them up on some of their offers?

Some birds will buy you drinks all night, strip for you, get shagged with other people in the room and do all sorts of tricks. It was highly embarrassing.

a marina hyde column describes it as 'ordering them to perform a lesbian sex show', i guess the beejes required no persuasion

also id forgotten that lampard was involved in the famous post-september 11th abuse of american tourists at an airport

these last few tweets from nakhchivan are kind of why i was curious in the first place b/c i thought the kind of behaviour i was reading about from terry was...commonplace among footballers

tweets?!

#spendingtoomuchtimeontwitter

FWIW Lex, John Terry is no longer England captain. He's actually been stripped of the captaincy twice, first for having sex with a team-mate's wife, then for alleged (ie definite, just not yet proven in a court of law) racist abuse of a black player, Anton Ferdinand. Anton's brother, Rio, was the guy dropped from the England squad altogether for having the temerity to be a bit annoyed by this.

So yeah, that lightning rod thing is pretty astute actually, although I think JT has a kind of unrepentant malice you don't get with most of yr hateful Golden Generation types.

psychic powers, obv

another thing about EBJT is his rheumy-eyed sentimentality (mainly about himself).

If JT could suck his own dick he'd still be pissy about it

lachrymose blubber

terry seldom actually says much of note, it's just he appears like a total dick.

sort of agree he is at worst the face of another few hundred famous players who are cut from the same cloth.

get on dis ting

"The Championship is not an option" - I Love Football off-season and transfer speculation thread 2012

just for the record, as one of the proud pillars of the traditions of lol football I fully endorse LOL JT IS A CUNT

shagging away his teammate's birds
sprouting alledged racist words
kneeing someone at the back, got himself suspended
still changed into his shirt after the final has ended
english and proud
he proclaims to the crowd
the smirk on his face
it's a fucking disgrace
at least in the end small justice prevailed
when he tried to push his way to the front but failed
that was magnificent
p.s. JT's a cunt
