Personally I've always found north London humour the funniest, the spud fans annual "we're gonna win the league" gag always has me in stitches.

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 can see both sides to it.

I can understand Luka's anger. He wanted to go a year ago, but kept his head down and was your best player last season. He now (rightfully IMO) feels he is being priced out of a move.

However he is poorly advised, he is contracted to Spurs and has to do a job. His agent has clearly told him to strike to lower his value but Levy might just dig his heels in so it could backfire.

I personally think you should let him go, this is cancerous to your club. G*llas wrecked our pre-season when he did the same but worse, if you don't want the same to happen to you just sell him and use the money for Moutinho

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 really feel for Modric. He must feel like he is being held hostage by the Spuds and the Spuds look like desperate fools trying to hold onto a player who has made it clear he wants out, maybe he just got sick of listening to all that wannabe cockney hardman rhyming slang that some idiot Spud fans use.

Run along now and feed your team...

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.
 
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.
:steam:

Really? What a ****.
 
A splendid display of knowledge from a leading figure in the game, on what contracts mean and how transfers work....<doh>

How does such an onanist get such a job??
 
:D

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.
 
Does he represent English footballers or footballers playing in the English league?
 
How dare we ask someone to fulfil their contractual obligations? Disgusting! <grr>
 
You could be part Mouser?



Here's a quick test to find out if there's a part of you that is Mouser. It'll take less than 5 minutes:-


Did you find Bread even mildly amusing?

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?

Do you find yourself watching Top Gear to study the hubcaps?
Did Cilla Black form part of your earliest recorded masturbatory fantasies?

Are you stirred to tears when you hear Max Boyce singing "Walk On"?

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?

Are you interested by Jimmy Tarbuck's golfing stories?

Do you get an erection when you see Liza Tarbuck?



If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, then either (a) you are part Scouse, or (b) you have Scouse syndrome. Either way, it would explain the alarming fact that you found Zingy's "joke" funny. The bad news is, however, that there is no cure for it.

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!
