Goldie.. fair point, easy to assume it just mean sacked though… eitherway, I’ll stick with Rafa walking before Numbnuts fires him!

I’d add Howe and Woy to the “Untouchables” list… can’t see them being fired before seasons end!
And thinking about it, I’d be bloody surprised if Rafa got the boot too, he’s really the best manager they are likely to get for the foreseeable future… mind you, I can see him quitting first, does that count?

Don’t really know all the in’s and out’s of this, but I would think the line needs to be drawn somewhere with any and all claims of independence (not just this particular region).
I mean, there’s rumblings down in Cornwall about this sort of thing, I just wonder how far it could go with groups of people or specific regions within a country across the whole of Europe? The Brittany region of France? Sicily perhaps? Certain Greek Islands? Isle of Mann? Canvey Island even?

Got to say, from what I know about it all, I think the Spanish Government have been a bit heavy handed to say the say least…
I blame the Scots, they started it all…. 🙂

Big J… everybody gets a nick-name budstar, wouldn’t want you and your lot to feel left out! All peace and love from my side, but a thread that was about how Spuds could improve further (and yes, started by your good self!) turned into “Harry’s packing his bags as we speak”… sure you can understand how that could grind my gears!

Big J.. perhaps fings are being lost in translation, with stuff being read between the lines and for my part I apologize! If anything I’m loving the City success because it’s annoying the heck out of YooUtd. Totally understand the whole players from small clubs going to big clubs thing, my Spuds have mugged enough sides over the years as well as being mugged, I reckon it’s just every time we get close enough to some major success or find ourselves lucky to have 2/3 top draw players it ends in tears, and this time around it’s close enough I can sniff it and we have 6/7 top draw players to drool over, I just get a bit defensive when fans of other clubs start giving us “lectures” on how we need to keep them!
Don’t mean to be rude, but do you really think us Spud-lovers don’t know this whole “pay the cash” nonsense already? 🙂

Big J.. don’t take this the wrong way but I guess having a team full of players who are basically there for the money more than anything else, and are likely to jump ship at the first sign of trouble, as none of them have any real affinity with the club, means you assume everybody will come to replace them if you wave enough cash in front of them.. you boys got lucky with the Abu Dhabi dosh and fair play to ya, I wouldn’t be complaining if it was me that’s for sure, but perhaps Kane has a bit of loyalty in his bones.. there have been players over the years who do you know, the likes of the Shearers and Gerrards etc… (not many mind you but some! 🙂 ) and just like Glenda, if and when he’s getting on a bit, don’t think any Spud-lovers would begrudge him a year or two in the sun.
As for Poncho and Levy, I reckon Levy is quite happy to help Poncho in any way he can, don’t think he’s saying “Steady on old chap, we don’t want to win something and upset all the big clubs now, do we?”

We’ll find out soon enough, just try to remember he’s a Spud fan, living the Spud dream, about to move into arguably the best stadium in the country, and contrary to all the “in-the-knows” on the interweb, earns a shed-load more than you lot think…
Not going to argue against the rest though…. 🙂

Big J…. don’t get your knickers wet about Harry Kane FC (not my words! 🙂 ) or Supper Harry for that matter. I do genuinely think he’ll be there for at least another 4/5 years, and in his late 20’s maybe he’ll go abroad, basically the same thing at Glenda did. Dele on the other hand, I think his head has already been turned with the idea of a huge bank account and would be very surprised if he’s still at the new House of Pain at the start of the 19/20 season.
As for bringing in anybody, that is a tough one.
Goalkeepers: If Llroris stays, who we gonna get that would improve?
RB: OKay, Walker went, but we all rate Trippier, and Weirdy Beardy has shown signs of “decentness”, along with signs of utter stupidity… possible room for improvement but who, realistically?
CB’S: Reckon they’re the best pairing in the Prem, and can’t really think of a pairing anywhere else that are better. And we have this young Argie Bargy lad learning the Poncho way (and Dier who can cover)… again, who we gonna get that would improve the 1st 11?
LB’s: Davies is playing a blinder and we have Rose to come back… not too sure who/how/where we could improve there…
CM’S: Wanayammanamma, Dier, Demeble, Winks.. okay, looking a bit thin with injuries at the moment, which is why Disco is playing there (and too badly either) but a pretty decent bunch fighting for those two spaces. Could do with another body in there, Vidal would be an improvement, but would he come? Who else who would improve the 1st 11 would come?
AMF: Well, we have the Iceman, Dele, Son, Disco, Lamela, Kevin at the moment, with a couple of youngsters who might make the grade. I’d love to see Bale come back, who again (I know, stuck record!) who would be willing to come and fight for a place with that lot?
Striker: Well, err… Harry and I’m surprised we got Llorente as backup. Really can’t see us improving there…The problem we have Big J, is simply getting the players who are good enough to want to fight for a place in the first 11. We can all have wishlists, but I’m happy with the “plan” of getting players to push the first 11 to stay on thier toes, with these players knowing (like Trippier!) if they do well they will get the chance. I really think it’s more of a question oftinkering with the squad rather than buying 1st 11, so we keep the points board ticking over…
Would love to see Bale back though… 🙂

I don’t think we can comment on MoneyCity’s defense until a team has a right go at them for the full 90 minutes. Most teams to be sitting back and trying their luck with the counter while holding ship at the other end. Pool was causing some issues before Mane’s red-card I seem to recall. Didn’t see last nights game, by all accounts Chelski were a bit defensive in their line-up.

But that’s enough about my Spuds, what about City?

Not 100% sure what you’re trying to say Nil, my little gigabyte budster, but I personally would be quite surprised if the Prem trophy doesn’t end up in Manchester this year but I’m not Mystic Meg!
There’s a big difference between “Hopes and Dreams” and “Being Smacked in the Face with a Smoked Kipper!” my cyber chum, and to do my best Golden Retriever impression “plenty of water to be played under the bridge!”… 🙂

Double H… part of me is disappointed it was only 4…. what’s your acca for this weekend? Do I need to change your name to Double M? Off to the shops for some more fire-water! 🙂

You guys need to stop playing that card…. 🙂
Nobody is going anywhere, not unless the GDP of a small country is involved. Yeah, Walker left, to go and play for the best team in the country, and the best manager in the world, and will probably pick-up a shiny thing or two over the next 3/4 years, along with the healthier bank-account.. but I wouldn’t say we are missing him so win/win all-round… none of us Spuds are panicking about everybody else’s predictions! 🙂

3 more points on the board, try and catch the highlights later…
NIL, we had this disco before mate, all well and good having a gently pop at Levy and whatnot, but as I said at the time, who we gonna get? Our 1st 11 is pretty steller at the moment, hard to find anybody who would walk straight into that who would a) not cost 100m plus in today’s market and b) would actually come to the Spuds anyway. All in all, when it was all wrapped up, I think we did all right over summer and got some decent players in.

Nobody likes to see players injured obviously, but this incident really makes a mockery of all the managers who bitch about travelling for games etc.. when they subsequently let their VIP players disappear to other countries for concerts 48 hrs before season defining games…

Double H… I’m one of the new breed my cyber chum, as optimistic as a spotty kid walking into a school disco! Not that you watch the Spuds every week but we’re not playing badly at all so far this season, if matches were scored like synchronized swimming we’d have even more points than we do (but it isn’t so we don’t!). Someone is going to get a bit of a spanking soon, that’s for sure, why not the next game? 🙂
Anyway, 2nd in the table, must be something in my fire-water!

Sounds like Aguero got a bit lucky there, certainly could have been a lot worse. No news on how long he’s out for though…
