The Premier League Thread

Just hours before the game with Palace he went on a bender and had sex with this woman in a hotel.

Initial story came out last week, Giroud denied it and said it was false. Today, there have been pictures to show it wasn't a lie and he's now owned up.

 

Why do some men have a self destruct button?

 

Bloody hell.....that's one hell of a mess he has made, depends on what his wife wants now....divorce or forgiveness ?
And then Venger will take a dim view of him after that, and surely now has to be a doubt for today...

 

Why do some women sleep with a guy just because he has money?

In both cases it's because they are greedy and always want more.

 

It's more acceptable in French society to have affairs, look at Hollande.

 

How come we're currently writing about Premier League football in Beefy's old thread and political pillow talk in the Premier League thread..?

On a Premier League subject, I see that Wayne Rooney is to sign another contract for ManU updating his weekly wage to £300,000. Now, bearing in mind that nobody is worth that, in any field or profession, but making the adjustment into the crazy world of footballer's pay, I think he's being overpaid. Basically, he isn't that good, but ManU believe they have to pay him that much to keep there in order to attract like-skilled players to the club.

In essence, this is a sign that ManU see themselves on the quality slide, and it's cheaper for them to keep Rooney as an overpaid talisman.

 

Agggggggghhhhhhh BBC please stop providing a platform for the Wenger-mourinho slagging match. Nobody cares. Its not news.

 

I'll have you know - most news is not news.

 

The new manager has taken his second training session at Fulham (with help from an unknown German speaker...coach or translator?), but Meulensteen, Curbishley and Wilson have not officially been fired. Curbishley turned up at 8.30, but then left. Weirder and weirder.

 

Yes, during the day that Fulham appointed their new manager, Meulensteen told the media that he'd been replaced. However, the Fulham statement made no mention of Meulensteen at all, which led some media to suggest that Fulham couldn't even be bothered to mention his name when firing him. Then, in the evening, it was suggested that Meulensteen hadn't been fired. The truth might be [and looks like it so far], that Meulensteen remains as First Team Coach, and now they have a Team Manager.

So, panic over.

 

There's some wacky story doing the rounds that Vince McMahon from WWE wants to buy a stake in Newcastle United.

 

I think it was a mirror article a month or so ago that reported it without saying who the manager, player and accomplices were.

 

Because we quite often blindly follow our dicks in the same fashion a bloodhound follows its nose.

 

One of my best ever games was after a very drunk, late night at a Xmas party, followed by some similar activities to Giroud, a 4 hour car journey at 7:30 in the morning and then a quickie before driving to the game! It wasn't a bad level of football either and probably my best performance of the season (the match, not the quickie before the game)

 

Someone tweeted that the Man City away game has been moved to 12:45 ko, for BT coverage, another kick in the backside for away fans?

 

Hope the anti-biotics worked........

Reminded me of http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ClVW09Y33S0

 

I tweeted that.

Yeah it's being listed online as a 12:45 KO on BT.

 

Michael Laudrup about to hold a press conference discussing his exit from Swansea and plans for the future.

Unusual.

 

Giroud changing his tune?

 

Saw this on twitter, cracked me up:

"Fair play to Giroud, denying it after you've apologised for it is a ****ing audacious move"
