Match Day Thread Hull City v Coventry

I do apologise my friend. Though I must add that that I am perfectly calm. Scroll to the end of my post and you'll see why.
Though there is a remote possibility you may enjoy reading it all!

 

At last, I have found my contemporary. Sans 'spliff'. but I like my whisky's (no 'e' ) stiff.

 

I assume my friend given your 'monica' you are of a similar era to me.
Sometimes I just feel like writing on here - no idea why, perhaps because I know few will read it.
Totally off topic, though perhaps of greater concern than the plight of our Tigers, but whilst writing my splurge I have been listening to a playlist on YouTube.
Nothing of concern there one may think. But I am listening to it on a smart TV, not new but newly acquired from my daughter. I have not logged on to my YouTube nor logged off hers, if it is indeed still logged on, I just plugged it in, went to YouTube, selected 1 song, then after it started playing a playlist which seems just like one I may have created for myself. Not only weird but rather sinister!

 

Happy to connect.

 

Sorry about the 'e'. I think it depends on whether Irish or Scotch. Since mine's a cheap Tesco 'Special Reserve' I'm sure it matters little, especially as it's half and half with dry ginger to make it palatable. I do like a good one though, with or without the 'e',

 

If you know not the importance of the 'e', then you are a ****ing tramp drinking stuff what you have just nicked off of Sainsbury's on Prinny Ave. Away with you, Charlatan.

 

Must agree with this; moronic stewards.
However, from another perspective I have to admit to some misgivings when I heard about potential Turkish owners. I lived in Istanbul for about 6 months and am afraid I left with the conclusion that Turks are mad. At that time (approx. 25 yrs ago), Istanbul was constantly awash with the national flag. Never witnessed a more nationalistic bunch of people. I was there teaching - every classroom had to have an image of and quotes from Ataturk pinned on the wall - and I was not in a Turkish school! I went to a Besiktas game. Their stadium right in downtown Istanbul. They won the game and with it the Champions title, for once beating their fierce yet stronger rivals of Fenerbace and Galetaseray (can't be arsed to get spelling right). Fans in the streets afterwards went crazy, cars driving around with guys sitting outside the car windows and many, and I mean many, shooting live ammunition into the air. The din was unbelievable and went on for hours. I was sitting in a roadside cafe not far from the ground and couldn't move - just too dangerous to try to go anywhere - and of course it was all joyous and good humoured as they celebrated! There were later reports that some supporters had gone out on a balcony in their flat, shot into the air with rifles and inadvertently shot some people on the balcony above. Hence my conclusion re madness!
I have not travelled much in the middle/near east but my times in Turkey and later Egypt have made me wonder. I've never come across peoples where young men behave as though they are pissed out of their minds, without any alcohol! - especially in the evenings during ramadan. Turks - hmmmm - not so sure - what did the potential new owner say about the Turkish flag flying over football? Sounds a bit mad to me - but then we've got Egyptians, why not try the Turks - will be interesting, even fun!

 

I said Tesco's not Sainsbury's but it's probably all the same stuff. I humbly accept the charge of charlatan.

 

ps - I did actually pay for it rather than nick it, which i guess makes me more of a charlatan - a matter of means must!

 

Beware the algorithm.

Witchcraft.

 

Something of the sort!

 

I suspect it was an English flag. I doubt he went to Turkey specifically to buy it.
Mind you lots of Union Flags and England flags are Chinese and possibly Turkish anyway.
Who knows.

Seriously though it was kids messing around, and unless you’re suggesting flags of other nations shouldn’t be allowed in then presumably an England flag would be just as dangerous and removed?

 

We really didn’t
Klp was alongside eaves centrally not hugging the touch line like he does in a 4-3-3
And moncur was in midfield not up front and he was awful.
So were the the rest of the midfield.
No lack of effort just no direction or idea how to play.

 

It looks like it mate,the stupid **** who was near me cheered the goal!!!.....don't think one of em could speak English either!!!!

 

I think we can all agree that at times we were all over the shop!

 

It looked like we were playing undercover super secret 3-5-2 to begin with, and the player had only been told an hour before kick off. The full backs pushed much further forward and Smallwood dropped into the back 3. This was probabky the cause of the first goal as Smallwood was the one miles behind everyone else and playing their guy onside. As for Eaves, I watched him closely and counted the number of times he controlled a ball and successfully passed to a team mate. Once. Unless you count the time his misplaced pass hit an opponent and rebounded to a City player. Twice in that case.

 

that’s rubbish both where sat infront of us the whole game.
