This has to be the funniest appointment of the year. I can't decide what is best the Mr Shrewd businessman Ashley is numb enough to appoint a shot manager like Keegan or that the fans think its the messiah returning and everything will be rosey in the garden now. Wonder if its too late to get a bet ...

Perhaps this does show that Allardyce wasn't solely responsible for the success at Bolton and that the people behind the scenes scouts, coaches even old Garty had some involvement as well. This season for us has really been a continuation of the last 4 or 5 months of Allardyces reign we haven't yet ...

Watched Okocha against Chelsea last night he really is a joy to watch as a footballer. His legs have gone but boy does he still have some ability on the ball great to see him again. Would be superb if we got Hull at the Bok in the FA Cup to see JJ (and Ped) one more time and give them the send off t...

Biggest thing he brought to Fergies squad that whilst he was a massively talented player he was happy to be part of the squad even if on the bench which must have been a god send for Fergie. Look at Dioufs reaction to being left out for one game (wrongly in my view) and compare it to Oles reaction.

More chance of Bin Laden getting the England job than there is of Allardyce getting it. If / when McLaren goes they will be looking for another foreign manager possibly Mourinho ? As for Fat Sam at Newcastle I for one do care as he is overdue his comeuppance and I would enjoy his bleating to the pre...

On the plus side the lad has managed to live the dream but to die at 22 is a tragedy especially with a youngster on the way who will never know his Dad. Heartbreaking.

In the interview I saw Gerard said something along the lines of if my toe makes a great recovery then I will play vs Germany if not I won't risk it so I can be fit for the qualifiers when they come round and the big games for Liverpool. Presumably if Rafa is asking him to play on with the damage he ...

Great fightback but never managed to get into the 5th set. Suppose this is an idea of what Wimbledon would have been like without Henman these last 10 years all over in the singles by the 2nd round.

I think people should get danger money for watching Henman 2 sets and a break down and he has come flying back at his opponent again when he was starting to look beat. What is the odds on another 5 set thriller I wonder ? Seriously not good for your stress levels watching Henman !! You can't argue w...

Turning this debate on it's head, there are plenty who describe Hunt as being mediocre, and yet he has consistently featured for a Top 8 Premiership side that has qualified for European football twice. So you're suggesting a transfer to Wimbledon for Nicky or are you suggesting he takes up tennis ?...

That bloke he played any good is he? Tennis not your thing SOTWA ? To be fair Moya isn't a grass court specialist but considering Henman has barely won a match all year any win was welcome and a win against a seeded player even more so. Henman will be blown away these days by the likes of Federer b...

Yes 13 - 11 after another Henman roller coaster ride. The draws for the next two rounds don't look too bad, if he can keep up his performance levels, so the second week is a possibility....after that who knows ?

Henman has been a credit to British tennis during the last ten years and been a top player. He has been unlucky that his peak on grass coincided with Sampras at his pomp and to make matters worse he now has Federer to contend with probably two of the best grass court players / most dominant players ...

Sams big problem was allowing his son to become involved in Boltons transfer dealings. As the report says its (at best) a serious conflict of interests at worse who knows .

Maybe the reason Sam never sued was to protect Craig ?

Are we talking about Sam Allardyce? You know, Newcastle's manager. Sometimes things work out for the best in the long run. :mrgreen: Shouldn't we move this to other football as this is obviously nothing to do with us ?

Don't some of the other sites just have a completely seperate section for the half naked / porn stuff that only people who are granted access can view ?
