Silva's done one...

Indeed...

 

Back home. Better weather. Better food. More attractive city to work in. Whilst getting paid a lot of money.Yes, must be difficult.

 

And despite what Ernie says they do decent vino collapso as wel.

 

Whereas in Britain because we're a richer country we've been able to afford to knock down lovely old buildings and replace them with concrete ****e.

 

Progress, old chap. Supposedly.

 

It will be quicker and cheaper for him to get down to the Algarve for his summer hols.

 

I just don't get it - going to a city with crap architecture, crap weather, crap football club!!! What is/was he thinking?

 

I was there couple of years ago, beautiful city but I fear a lot of the old buildings will fall down before they get renovated, the country's broke!

 

Oporto is lovely. I dare say, never been. But its dog-tod for football.

 

Lots of rumours in the papers about Palace wanting Silva as Fat Sam's replacement. It makes sense. They can have the Silva and the Crystal in the boardroom.

It's probably a result of us singing Glad All Over for minutes on end at their place. Some person with a Business Communications degree put 2+2 together (and made 5) and presented their new marketing strategy.

 

So he loses 4-0 them and then joins em

It was the plan all along

 

Going to Porto would be an incredibly safe choice for Marco. Yes, they have got Champions League football but so do Celtic and you wouldn't **** off there. I'd really like him to stay in England, and I'd be especially intrigued by what he could do at Palace.

 

I think he'd do absolutely brilliantly there. The squad is almost made for him, he wouldn't need to buy anyone.

 

If he does stay in England it'll be interesting to see how he does with a genuine PL quality squad (although I think Palace lack PL defenders)

 

He'd probably come in for Maguire.

 

Yes, true. Hull is so much better with its Champion League opportunities. Bet they don't get as massive crowds as us either...

 

Don't you get bored of this? And I bet they wouldn't get 23000 in the 4th tier of Portuguese football.

 

It is a fairly odd argument. No one's saying Hull is the centre of the universe yet he's still arguing that it isn't.
