Ohhhh the bitter disappointment - the top bits were Britt, the bottom bits were a body double from a stripper they picked up in Glasgow :cry: Is that right? And if so, could you not have kept schtum? The illusion...... is shattered. :( It's true. Eckland was pregnant at the time. She later complain...

Was I the only one who, in real time, genuinely thought that was a pen? It's quite a good dive actually. No you're not. I watched that game on TV in a pub on the Blackburn/Bolton border. The first viewing looked nailed on. It's only the the shot from the side or behind the goal that reveals it to b...

Some highly amusing points from yesterday's game 1. United getting stuffed 2. The fans who had taken placards mocking Rafa and Liverpool looked a bit silly. 3. The huge number of empty seats well before the final whistle. 4. Fergie's comments : "I thought we were the better team, but the score doesn...

Let's not forget Cattermole's first claim to fame. In the midst of a 4-0 home defeat by Villa when playing for Middlesborough, he burst into tears.

"Geo is having a drugs test, hopefully they will find it positive...because it's the only logical explanation of his behaviour after being subbed."

The bits in bold are mine. Context helps, as does seeing the video and hearing what tone of voice the remarks were made in.

Replies: 21
Views: 3126

When considering or not whether to laugh at a club, you need to compare the expectation of their fans with the achievement of the club. That's why Manchester City and Newcastle are so funny. Expectation : Huge. Achievement: Bugger all. In the case of Arsenal the expectation was title contenders and ...

Couldn't possibly comment. But while reiterating that I don't doubt you, I'll just wonder if ANYONE makes a profit from the competition – which, like it or not, is a fairly serious consideration. At the moment I doubt that anyone makes much if anything. Next season's TV rights will be sold centrall...

Villa must be wondering why they bothered starting the season early and playing the Intertoto Cup if it wasn't to try and win the UEFA. They'll not have made much money from their run and their fans will be left disappointed (only Prague stands out as a good away and that's nowt compared to us last...
