    Almost as funny as your sad, deluded manager's annual " I believe that ( insert name of chosen player) will remain as an Arsenal player" absolutely ****ing hilarious, that one <laugh>

    I have trouble seeing how anyone has the slightest sympathy for Modric. Everyone else in the world is expected to stand by their word and honor their contracts. If he didn't want to honor a 6 year contract at 40,000 he shouldn't have fecking signed a 6 year contract for 40,000.

    There's a stark contrast with Ade, who is trying to get the best terms for his contract, which he has every right to do, and training for his team while he does so, as he should.

    As to letting him go and getting Moutinho: I'd be very happy to do that, and I would think Levy would be too, but from what little I can tell, we can't get him.

    I find East London humour much funnier. For example, have you heard this one: "We should play at the Olympic Stadium, even though we can't fill Upton Park."?

  7. Miggins is a Spanner?

    Blimey! He should change his name to Muggins.

    I've got the Spanners down as one of my three teams to get relegated, next season.

  8. STFU Gordon Taylor!!!
    The appears very little chance of getting avaricious players to display some sort of 'honour' in their contractual dealings if their own union chairman publicly supports them breaking those contracts.
    Taylor's comments this evening (on SSN) on the Modric situation are frankly disgraceful. In short he said, Modric wants to go and Madrid want him to go so it's all Spurs fault.

    How does such an onanist get such a job??

    I had to look that up, smart-arse. <laugh>

    I thought being a ****er was part of the requirements for a top job in football.

    I think he should be sacked Spurf, 2 things. One, has any other representative of the FA commented on a transfer thats ongoing? Is he trying to influence it somehow??? Second, wtf has it got to do with him.

    Did you find Bread even mildly amusing? Occasionally but it generaly pissed me off.

    In Bread, in the scenes that portrayed Joey going to the dole office to scrounge yet more money off the State, did you find yourself not so much laughing as taking notes? Nah, I've always worked, scrounging off the state is not amusing.

    Do you find yourself watching Top Gear to study the hubcaps? Nah, but I'm a regular down the car auction.


    Did Cilla Black form part of your earliest recorded masturbatory fantasies? Nah, Diana Rigg in the leather cat suit that she wore in the Avengers.

    Are you stirred to tears when you hear Max Boyce singing "Walk On"? Nah but I used to sing along to Max Boyce's 'Up and Under, here we go'

    When they play old clips of Gerry and the Pacemakers songs on re-runs of Blue Peter, do you find yourself trying to mimic the dance without a sense of irony? Didn't know they did re-runs of Blue Peter.


    Are you interested by Jimmy Tarbuck's golfing stories? Hate Golf.

    Do you get an erection when you see Liza Tarbuck? Who's Liza Tarbuck?


    I seem to have passed the test. However, despite being half Croat and half Irish, my Grandfather didn't move to North London until he was eight, you can guess where he lived before that!

    Inappropriate doesn't even begin to describe it, we'll see what Mr. Levy makes of it.
