can we get a 'points per minute with lennon on the pitch'

I'm already stretching the limits of my statistical analysis skills (adding and dividing). I think you'd need to pay Opta to confirm what you know to be true.

Keith pissed on my chips (onimo), Thursday, 3 May 2012 10:18 (eleven years ago) link

yeah, pointless to look for confirmation from a source i'd disregard if it disagreed with my opinion (ie any source, tbf)

underleg aeroboots i have smithed (darraghmac), Thursday, 3 May 2012 10:21 (eleven years ago) link

woy may have all the credentials in the world but imo he'll only have really proved himself if he bosses wba to a awesome destruction of bolton on saturday

really should have come into the england press conference with this blasting

i saw a young white person refer to an asian shopkeeper as ~bossman~ the other day

nakhchivan, Thursday, 3 May 2012 12:57 (eleven years ago) link

this probably happens more often in neighbourhoods with more bossmaners and bossmanees

nakhchivan, Thursday, 3 May 2012 12:57 (eleven years ago) link

god you do realize every time a crappy barton type football player gets a 300% payrise for moving on a free, they will be referred to as BOSSMEN, ironically or otherwise, for ever after

nakhchivan, Thursday, 3 May 2012 12:59 (eleven years ago) link

yeah i've picked up the oi bossman cheers bossman habit myself tbh

mods don't see youtube clips embed, so to my delight this exchange was built around

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7BP0OGmhb7c

which would make woy's press conference the best thing ever for me if it happened.

seriously, this guy's face is really something

New England boss Roy Hodgson spoke with John Terry and Rio Ferdinand on Tuesday and has decided that only one can go to Euro 2012, according to ESPN sources.

The expectation is that the Chelsea captain will miss out on the European Championships, but that remains unconfirmed until the squad is announced at 1pm on Wednesday.

mizzell, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 19:16 (eleven years ago) link

that wd already make him second best England manager ever

Vermicious Knid A (Noodle Vague), Tuesday, 15 May 2012 19:21 (eleven years ago) link

This is a pretty swift fall from grace for Terry, no? Out of the CL final, out of the Euros, Andy Carroll making him look like a dick. A slightly slower decline might be better, maybe a bit of pathos, to let the media narrative catch up.

Ismael Klata, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 19:51 (eleven years ago) link

he just needs to be convicted of the race charge to polish off a memorable season

Djibril Citté (onimo), Tuesday, 15 May 2012 19:55 (eleven years ago) link

It's just about conceivable that he'll never play again. I'd like his career to decay a bit more visibly I think.

Ismael Klata, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 19:58 (eleven years ago) link

he'll deny it to the end

worse happens he gets two injury blighted seasons at the san siro on 7m a year

navihchkan (nakhchivan), Tuesday, 15 May 2012 20:00 (eleven years ago) link

the whole laughing at the nasty man getting comeuppance routine, apart from its generic pusallinimity, is kinda hollow when he retires to a big house in surrey full of hedge fund brochures and gilded furniture and behaves abominably for the rest of his pampered life

navihchkan (nakhchivan), Tuesday, 15 May 2012 20:04 (eleven years ago) link

Ismael Klata, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 20:37 (eleven years ago) link

terry is a retard

he probably looks like that when he runs out of jelly beans

navihchkan (nakhchivan), Tuesday, 15 May 2012 20:39 (eleven years ago) link

the condition of a gilded age epl superstar is pretty much constant fulfillment blighted by occasionally disturbing interludes

navihchkan (nakhchivan), Tuesday, 15 May 2012 20:41 (eleven years ago) link

I'll take what i can get. His failure to win the Champions League eats away at him i can assure you

Number None, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 20:42 (eleven years ago) link

so jermaine pennant gets a three year driving ban and has to trade in his 911 for a chauffeur driven maybach with a fridge full of krug so he doesn't have to spend a single moment of the offseason sober

navihchkan (nakhchivan), Tuesday, 15 May 2012 20:43 (eleven years ago) link

oh man

caek, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 23:06 (eleven years ago) link

rio stays home, ebjt to ukr

yoel rak (toandos), Tuesday, 15 May 2012 23:10 (eleven years ago) link

unless they're both going to be left out of the squad. seems unlikely obv.

zverotic discourse (jim in glasgow), Tuesday, 15 May 2012 23:14 (eleven years ago) link

welp.

guardian says micah richards is out too? what's the logic behind putting phil 'not actually a right back' jones and glen 'glen johnson' johnson ahead of him?

Merdeyeux, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 23:15 (eleven years ago) link

wait what is there a squad?

i'd assume, tbph, that k walker is ahead of either johnson or richards, and prolly jones too at rb?

pet tommy & the barkhaters (darraghmac), Tuesday, 15 May 2012 23:31 (eleven years ago) link

ah shit, walker injured

pet tommy & the barkhaters (darraghmac), Tuesday, 15 May 2012 23:31 (eleven years ago) link

johnson for me, the best attacking fullback out of the lot of them

Chris, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 23:42 (eleven years ago) link

johnson has been the first-choice. don't see that changing.

zverotic discourse (jim in glasgow), Tuesday, 15 May 2012 23:43 (eleven years ago) link

well if Phil Jones is his only competition...

Number None, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 23:45 (eleven years ago) link

Harsh on Rio though

Number None, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 23:47 (eleven years ago) link

ferguson assured the public that rio wouldn't be fit enough

johnson ahead of richards sounds about right besides

pet tommy & the barkhaters (darraghmac), Tuesday, 15 May 2012 23:50 (eleven years ago) link

but it's Jones ahead of Richards really

Number None, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 23:55 (eleven years ago) link

johnson ahead of richards sounds mental to me too, i suspect i rate richards higher than anyone else on the planet does and i've no idea why.

Merdeyeux, Tuesday, 15 May 2012 23:59 (eleven years ago) link

should just play Neville tbh

Number None, Wednesday, 16 May 2012 00:00 (eleven years ago) link

you liked the video of him and some other dude roasting someone in a mcdonalds toilet?

navihchkan (nakhchivan), Wednesday, 16 May 2012 00:00 (eleven years ago) link

that is unfortunate

Number None, Wednesday, 16 May 2012 00:01 (eleven years ago) link

richards is the more complete player but he's not getting enough games at citeh- i'd rate him potentially better than any other young english talent tbh

pet tommy & the barkhaters (darraghmac), Wednesday, 16 May 2012 00:01 (eleven years ago) link

oh it was a hotel toilet apparently, apologies micah

navihchkan (nakhchivan), Wednesday, 16 May 2012 00:02 (eleven years ago) link

the ho did not tell the identity of the other dude

navihchkan (nakhchivan), Wednesday, 16 May 2012 00:03 (eleven years ago) link

well u c i have good reasons for supporting micah.

Merdeyeux, Wednesday, 16 May 2012 00:04 (eleven years ago) link

idk, who cares which b+ player plays in which position, it's all about the race war from now on

navihchkan (nakhchivan), Wednesday, 16 May 2012 00:05 (eleven years ago) link

it's part of the long-term plan to follow the dutch model

pet tommy & the barkhaters (darraghmac), Wednesday, 16 May 2012 00:06 (eleven years ago) link

nah gotta be big sam. feels so close now. it will be the funniest shit ever.

btw that story that the fa favours big sam because he'll "mentor a successor" seems like classic stupidity. why would you appoint your favoured choice but demand they make a plan for who comes after they inevitably get sacked?

Bein' Sean Bean (LocalGarda), Wednesday, 13 July 2016 10:45 (seven years ago) link

The Big Sam must be built
