  1. The implication being that you don't have to say a thing when Manchester '£100,000,000 transfer war chest' United says everything about their own progress when they spend a large fortune on a flashy European. D+ pedantry failure

    You've obviously never woke up hungerover in the middle of winter when the change of daylight saving kicks in. 'why is the sun setting at 3pm?'
  3. Remember the saying 'don't throw stone in glass houses'?
  4. see that is the thing, scum rises to the top of the pond
  5. Then I don't understand your initial argument and why you quoted me in the first place.
  6. because the arm is the most important tool in football, the QB has to use that to throw
  7. Well that simply isn't true because no human is impartial and the instances such as fouls are up to the interpretation of the referee, not only that but the general interpretation of rules continues to change and will forever continue to change. And other sports have issues with technological rulings and their interpretations, it is just that those fans don't go into complete meltdown over the rulings every week like English football fans do. I watch American Football every week and there is always a debate on 'does he have control of the ball' for receptions/incomplete passes, but people get on with it on don't stew on it for months. In hockey there are instances of a player moving from the neutral zone over the blue line when the transition play happens, two minutes later a goal is scored of no consequence to the offside but the coach can challenge that ruling, often to debate; does the ruling stand or does the coach essentially delete two minutes of play, without returning the time to the game clock? Also in NHL, depending on what time of the season it is different penalties are called more thoroughly, cross-checking will never be called as a penalty in the play-offs but early in the season it will nearly always be a two minute minor. That isn't even scratching the difference in rules in other Football Associations.
  8. Does football really need to be centimetre exact? Pitches aren't even the same size but we argue if someone was an atom offside.
  9. @Devil-Dick Willie fuckin hell
  10. It's embarrassing. The absolute nerve to police someone else in a different language. The ban is ludicrous as is the outrage, for what purpose? Because it looks similar to a word in English? It smacks of condescending cultural superiority. Mary mother of Christ, Antonella Messi refers to herself as 'la Negra' on Instagram. It doesn't even necessarily refer to a black person ffs, people are being more racist in England by attaching their own prejudice to a word that isn't even used by them. I just watched a doco on Maradona and the spanish speakers referred to him as 'el negrito' a few times. Bloody hell, imagine if they knew you can go to a supermarket and buy a tin of 'negros frijoles' It seems to me that in the UK and the USA and mention of colour is perceived as offensive and a sleight no matter the context. It's a disease on the culture of language

    Seriously though it is because Goldberg is one of the faces of the years WCW put WWF on the brink of annihilaiton. I think anyone that didn't jump ship before the acquisition or anyone that is largely considered to be associated with the WCW is a persona non grata. Look at Goldberg in 02/03, he was essentially a tool to raise HHH up higher, DDP was turned into a stalked, Booker T was made to look awful at WM19, Bagwell or whatever he called had one appearance, and some of the others whose contract was owned by Time-Warner instead of WCW refused to join WWF on a smaller pay so I imagine that infuriated McMahon even further, especially since they were people like Sting, and former WWF employees like Scott Hall and Kevin Nash. It was a clusterfuck, the ego of it all ruined the Invasion angle; which properly cooked and prepared would have been m o n e y.

    It is because he kciked Bret Hart in the head and played football

    What is to understand? Fuck WCW, fuck Turner, and fuck WCW. You think McMahon wants an icon of WCW winning at Wrestlemania?
  15. You should know better posting on a liverpool forum
  16. Just pessimism, really. I’m well aware it is a tall order but just can’t shake that feeling that it is commonplace.
  17. If Liverpool and nearly every high performing team aren't doping then I'm Duchess Fergie, the only time the news ever comes out is when it's a player doing it on their own volition a la Samir Nasri.
  18. I don't like the idea of @Devil-Dick Willie having two spaghetti meals in one day.

  19. He also voted that homosexuality is incompatible with the military and voted for the prohibition of same-sex marriage, and was instrumental in pushing through a law that made crack cocaine a worse offence than powder cocaine (just think about that for a second). A career politician, whose policies probably don't reflect at all his true beliefs, he'd be a Tory in your country. But that was in the past, we'll see how much actually gets through.
  20. CNN called it, Biden wins after clinching Pennsylvania.
  21. Biden would be running for Australian Liberal National or British Tories if he were from either country. The only good thing about Trump is that Biden has had to make more of his 'proposed policies' more antipathetic to what he would normally do. I do not care for Biden but he is a career politician and at least there is a chance of some positivity coming out of his term, unlike Trump whom is just a waste of time. I would vote for Bill Shorten or Jeremy Corbin over Joe Biden but Biden over Trump, let's put it that way
  22. Also get the fuck out of our thread
  23. That is the point... congratulations you got the joke. Just because you love the bloke doesn’t mean he isn’t an arrogant prick that can’t see the forest for the trees. Why does he talk down to Cahill, but not Redknapp?
  24. Keane will have about five big fucking Samoans on him in the parking lot next week, you can't fuck with an Uce and get away with it.
