    They are not there in HIAGs sig simply because he can't post on the board they are from. So he will have done them by copying and pasting, rather than reply to, which will include the link.

  8. @DaveUnited...


    Yeah, SD is correct. Because I am banned from commenting on the Gooners' board I cannot link directly to the comment.

    I was banned because they said I was obsessed with the Gooners, but I'm not obsessed! No more so than any other Spurs supporter. It's ridiculous!

    So, what I have to do now is log-out of the site, then go back in as a non-signed-in guest. That enables me to gain access to the Gooner board. I then spend a fair amount of time reading through the various Gooner threads - I usually settle down with a mug of coffee and a doughnut - and look out for any comments that I might be able to use for humorous purposes. I might have to read many several pages of dull chat before finding a snippet or two. When I do find one, I write it down on a piece of paper, taking especial care to make a note of the name of the poster and in getting his comment exactly right (I don't want to be accused of overly paraphrasing or editorializing the comment). When I feel that I have the best comments, I log-out of the Gooner board, and then log back onto the site with my user-name. I navigate my way to my "profile" page and hit the "edit signature" button. Thereafter, it's just a case of faithfully transcribing the comment(s) that I had earlier written down on my piece of paper. I'll probably undertake this exercise two or three times a day - more often at weekends. I tend to get through quite a lot of coffee and doughnuts.

    It's all name of banter, that's all. I'm certainly not obsessed.

  9. The Guardian report Real Madrid are contemplating a move for Liverpool striker Luis Suarez - but only if they sell Karim Benzema, who it is believed will be subject to a £46m bid from Arsenal.
    (Source: BBC Football website)


    Excellent news!

    We know full well that 'Pool's Yank owner is adamant that the ungrateful Goofy is going absolutely no where, even if it means that he has to wind-down the last four years of his contract playing in 'Pool's reserves, so that means that Whinger has absolutely no chance of getting his hands on Benzema, even if he is prepared to pay the absolutely stupid sum of £46m for him.

    I would never have thought us having a transfer stolen from under us could possibly turn out so sweetly!

  13. What Jose is saying is that we were wrong to make his medical public knowledge, because if he didn't pass his medical it would then become public knowledge that the player was unfit.

    Sorry, but how many professional footballers fail a medical? Isn't it part of their job to keep fit?

    Any respect I had for Mourhino is now gone. He'll never be welcomed as manager at this club.

    And didn't he spend three years at a club that make their prospective new players' medical a public event?

    I asked Luka Modric if he agreed with Mourinho's assessment and this was his reaction:

    I think it's more to do with Mourinho/Roman wanting to get one over AVB than anything else. Said the same on the Chelsea board. You have to take anything Mourinho says to the media with a pinch of salt. He's a performer and has all those journalists on a shoestring. They look at him in awe because he's intellectually and psychologically their superior. It's nothing to do with "loving" him.

    Well I already knew I was intellectually superior to Jose but I guess this just proves it

    I've had pet hamsters that are intellectually superior to most football journalists, yet I don't recall any football journalists acting like One Direction fans around them.
