    I was just reading BBC football regarding Shef Wed and their sacking of Megson and appointment of Jones.

    Darren Purse former Shef Wed player said on twitter that he can't understand football sometimes on the basis that Megson came out on top of the City derby and was lying third in the table yet was sacked. On the appointment of Jones the same player says that he played for Jones at Cardiff for 4 years and he is the man they need to get promoted.

    Erm!!!!! Just the sort of man you need stood behind you in an argument. All this tweeting these players do these days. Think they would do better not to bother and just shut up and eat their nandos.

    The two statements aren't actually inconsistent are they?

    1) Megson would have got Sheffield Wednesday promoted & he can't understand why he got sacked "Megson would have got Wednesday promoted this year. He loved the club & knows how to won promotion. There must be s'thing more to it" "You win a Sheffield derby moving up to 3rd in the league & get sacked 3 days later. I don't understand football sometimes!" [Tweets which probably reflect his first reactions honestly]

    2) Jones can get Wednesday promoted ""He's a great manager. He could be the man to take the club forward." [Press quote probably largely intended to avoid controversy]

    i.e. Purse wouldn't have sacked Megson but with the club having sacked him, Jones is a reasonable appointment.

    Sorry, but you don't have to be Aristotle to say those statements are perfectly consistent.

    Altogether now:

    Immanuel Kant was a real piss ant
    Who was very rarely stable.
    Heidegger, Heidegger was a boozy beggar
    Who could think you under the table.
    David Hume could out-consume
    Wilhelm Freidrich Hegel,
    And Wittgenstein was a beery swine
    Who was just as schloshed as Schlegel.

    There's nothing Nietzsche couldn't teach ya'
    'Bout the raising of the wrist.

    SOCRATES, HIMSELF, WAS PERMANENTLY PISSED...

    John Stuart Mill, of his own free will,
    On half a pint of shandy was particularly ill.
    Plato, they say, could stick it away;
    Half a crate of whiskey every day.
    Aristotle, Aristotle was a bugger for the bottle,
    Hobbes was fond of his dram,
    And Rene Descartes was a drunken fart:
    "I drink, therefore I am"
    Yes, Socrates, himself, is particularly missed;
    A lovely little thinker but a bugger when he's pissed!

    I have no idea Away in BC by the way but apparently the Argyle squad eat them by the ton according to their many tweets. Whatever tweets are. I thought they were sweets that somebody with a speech impediment had but apparently not.

    Nothing new is it? a player tweeting inconsistent bollocks.IQ of a footballer-an oxymoron for sure.
