Football "pundits" and journalists rant thread

There ARE other teams(we'd have no-one to play otherwise) and here's where all-comers can discuss the wider world of football......

And here's another contender.

Note it's the FULHAM following they're showing!

Surely being one of five listed makes us 'one of the worst' rather 'the worst'. Our attendances are bigger than Fulhams, Wigans, Portsmouths and on a par with Blackburns, Birminghams etc.... Not sure how they've come to that conclusion to be honest.

Has anyone mentioned Nigel Gleghorn the City pundit on GMR yet? Low profile but a grade 1 ignorant prick. Nowhere near the standard of Gowling or Eyre. After today's match someone mentioned on the phone in that Shittu should get ago seeing as we can't defend. Cue Gleghorn to tell us that Shittu isn't a good centre back, and is infact best in defensive midfield where Burnley are playing him at the moment. Apparently we should get him back from loan and use him.

Also, his solution to the Bolton problem? Vladimir Weiss - better than anything Bolton have.

Prick.

Cock-end McNulty on the BBC website. Discussing how sh*te Brian Laws is, "this club has still not got over the shock of Coyle not just leaving, but leaving for Bolton". Let it go. He has been proven emphatically right, and you all as a bunch of sanctimonious cocks. That is all.

May not be the journalists fault but who cares.

From Phil McNulty's end of season review.

"I portrayed this as a sideways move by Coyle at the time and I have not particularly changed that view. He will always move around mid-table at best at the Reebok, which is satisfactory of course, but I remain convinced he would have eventually attracted a bigger club had he continued his fine work at Turf Moor."

So what you meant was, it was a step up, but you thought he could have got a bigger step up. Hmm. Not the same thing is it. You could always, you know, admit you were wrong.

And, at the same time, insinuating that going to Bolton now marks the end of his career. That no bigger move will come from being at the shithouses. Cockend.

I know this isn't football, but it fits nicely with the title of the thread, so I'm putting it in here anyway.

Best. Correction. Ever.

It's from the Sun (no, really - they got something wrong! Can you imagine?)

Well thank f*ck for that.

Yes, you can stare into the abyss, but it's staring right back.
