WTF are you on....

If you read it again I said exactly the opposite - 'We also differ because I think that it will get pretty quite soon under NL....over to you chief !'

I'm 100% behind NL and I've never said anything otherwise, he's a class manager who's already changed things IMO which I also said.

I don't think anything that I posted deserves the level of abuse that you dish out....
And I apologise for that last bit, it was crass and uncalled for.

That's pretty damning. I think I preferred the blurred version :D

I saw Pratley on Friday as I was leaving Overdale. Clearly he lives in a swanky pad in a gated development just off of CN Rd. I would have wound the window to let him know my opinion as to his worth as a footballer, but my mum was in the car with me.

The thing that annoyed me about Pratley yesterday, was every time we had chance to attack and move forward quickly, each time he got the ball, he slowed the attack up, and then play the ball back rather than forward, which then stopped the attack, and a few times he was caught ball watching and had the ball nicked off him. Like I said previously, he has a good engine, can run all day, but for me he is hard to watch

I think Pratley can do a job away when teams are attacking us more snd his incredible workrate and aerial ability are useful. Not at home though, he'll soon be out for Mavies anyway.

Hats off to Pru. He's long said we have a wonky diamond. It seems Pratley is indeed it.

Exactly this. There was a point in yesterday's game in which all his options were to play the ball forward as there wasn't anyone three yards behind him and he got caught in possession. A piss-poor footballer who brings absolutely nothing to the side.

Lonergan is the clear number 1 for me.

On current form definitely... His saves in the last few games have been nothing short of superb, especially considering the Watford game at the beginning of the season where I thought he was at fault in at least 2 of the 3 goals.

Since I heard it again on the weekend, can someone explain the wanky wanky chant to me?

It is meant to be the subtlest of ironies and about the reappropriation of language, as in a rapper bearing himself the nomenclature of "n****" or indeed MU fans repeating the "who the f*ck..." It reappropriates since it leaves opposition fans less likely to chant it and therefore is quite a clever psychological ploy. Probably still sounds stupid though.

Bastard. Hope you recover from that snub.

"Drink through it" would be my advice.

Thanks for that. It's the only explanation that makes sense lol
