tell me smug, when did you abandon reason for madness

Do you have the expression 'tongue in cheek' on Humberside <whistle>

It's 10pm on a Friday night, you're posting on a **** thread on a little Sunderland board and you're asking me about reason <laugh>

Seriously mate, in the Hull 'city of culture' is there absolutely nowt better to do?
 
I know mate, just winding up the daft ****er ....... shame we can't meet up tomorrow but I'm sure you'll have a good time at the Railway.
I'll have another pint in the Vic after the game if you get in <ok>

Sounds good to me..I will pop in for a pint to let the traffic clear before I get the bus..

nah i just wanted to use my favourite quote from lord of the rings, dunno what it even means
 
Not everyone has access to that page mate.

The same Hull Mod who came crawling to our Mods, to have his Sunderland ban lifted, insists on maintaining my ban from Hull.

Why, because he loves to dish it out but just can't take it back, f**ing pathetic cowardly behaviour.

Well I'm not going to mention that arseholes name otherwise he'll be here before you can spell out 'Ull, but here's a very astute maiden OP from this Hull chap.

Are we seeing history repeat itself with Mr Bruce. Looking at the current situation, albeit from the land downunder, it appears that Steve is following the same path he trod with previous clubs he managed. He starts off well moulding a good side out of average players but then success breeds overconfidence and the cheque book comes out. This results in disharmony in the ranks with established players either being passed over or bearing resentment because the new players are on more money.

There is no doubt that Steve has the ability to motivate players to play at their best. Notwithstanding this I think that tactically his abilities are short of what is required for top level football. He undoubtedly has achieved great success here at Hull City but even so there has always been niggling doubts about his formations and choice of substitutions during matches.

I know this is contentious but I think that Steve is too much of an old school manager. It seems to me that he thinks he can protect a lead in games by trying to park the bus. To do this you have to be very strong tactically and I don't think this is the case with City. I accept that my views are based on watching City on internet stream but I very rarely get the impression that we have dominated a game.

I hope I'm wrong but I think we are going to struggle this year to the extent that Steve could be replaced by the end of the season. If this did happen and he was replaced with a more tactically proficient manager I think that with the playing personnel that we have we would be a much better side.

I am now leaving for the bunker

Not really read into the thread so not sure how it's gone down, don't care, just think it's a good post.


Wait till he gets around to starting a game without strikers.
Then their eyes will light up. :)

Well he's getting there mate, he finished the league cup game without any on the pitch :D

tbf it did make me chuckle:/

Me too. :emoticon-0136-giggl
 
It was funny wasn't it?

Only sanctimonious people, with an agenda, fail to see the gallows humour that makes us Brits what we are.

I'd guess that any bloke, including me & you, would've risked our lives to pull the daft bastard out of the water.

I am neither sanctimonious or have an agenda, but as I pointed out to you when you started that thread having a laugh about the man's death it was best kept to yourself but you rigorously defended it by diluting it down to gallows humour. Now you still think it is funny despite a human being dying?

You obviously have an agenda because you never fail to take the opportunity to have a pop at me.

That's your business and it doesn't bother me tbh, it's your sad & all too obvious problem.

You'll team up with anyone who has a go at me whether you like them or not which is pretty infantile tbh.

I wasn't laughing at the man's death but the ridiculous situation.

Those who had the intelligence to understand that point agreed and laughed at the situation.

Those with an agenda came over as sanctimonious hypocrites desperate to use the thread to have another pathetic crack at me <ok>

Many people post much worse threads but you only ever target me ...... why don't you ask yersel why?
