  1. My old man used to make me empty out my wardrobe every so often and he would drop sacks of clothes into the Headmasters office to distribute to all the poor little c**ts off the Ferrier Estate and places like that…..this would have been around 1978/79 I was sworn on pain of shame to never open my mouth at school about it……poor little b*****ds were filthy, in absolute rags ! Uniform goes a long way to mitigating that……I don’t care what anyone says, it’s does and that’s not an opinion it’s a stone cold fact.

    Tourettes.

    Being black is obviously more important than being disabled……
  3. Uniform is the most humane thing ever invented for school…..I will Let you figure out why. But as for adding your own details, yes, kids should be allowed to do that…..
  4. Warning, it’s howling so be sure you want to read it.
  5. It’s looking a bit shabby but it’s been hard work since the help left ! lol
  6. Tottenham will have just appointed their 19 thousandth manager ! lol
  7. The 70s and 80s, and something you don’t see anymore is……youth culture ! There used to be: Mods Skinheads Punks Goths New Romantics Scooter Boys Mod-ism has had a bit of a revival amongst blokes of a certain age and old scooter boys just wont die, but you don’t have the same groups anymore Theres also a little pocket of Skinhead/Oi music going strong with bands like Booze & Glory but again it’s niche.
  8. I met him up in Scotland, he was in the bothy getting pissed on red wine but he was a right nice lad. Had a bit of craic about football and he said where did you play, so I was saying “oh it was just local amature level stuff” and he said something along the lines of “You should have come up here” so I said “f**k that, I didn’t want to drop down a level” ! lol A proper good lad, no airs and graces, just enjoying his fishing, a bottle of red and some decent craic.
  9. Conte plays some nice “old fashioned” football with Napoli mate, worth a watch.
  10. Footballs not complicated mate, flick on or hold up, lay off, spin out…..it’s always worked and it always will work Just like 3rd man runs…. Theres f**k all new in the world ! lol
  11. Just looked, the big German lad in a 10 role linking with his 9 partner and aggressive wide players and a quick attacker in behind the 10…..that’s as old as the hills, that how lots of teams used to play. You can get 4 or 5 players into attack but quickly compress into a mid field 4 and the 9 or 10 can go and press the back 4 in defensive transition. Your 6 & 8 are there for knock downs and can see in front of them to play diags to wide players and quickly put you on the attack. It’s a system I love…..sometimes the oldies are the goodies ! lol
  12. Is that not just a front 2 pairing with a big linking player so you can go direct from goal kicks if you want to and then rotate for crosses and box positions or put two strikers in a box when the bigger lad holds it up and lays it off to wingers ? Exhibit A from 2002 ! lol
  13. Always loved that routine from Billy, it’s one of the most funny, classic things he has ever done.
  14. Been watching Landman, it’s class ! It’s like the most American thing ever ! …….but in a good way.
  15. The depravity of the human soul never ceases to amaze does it mate……
  16. Yes, I think that’s the one mate.
  17. Has anyone ever seen that documentary about those two brothers ?…..they are grown men now and they present it. It’s horrific, they were subjected to exactly that (makems post) ………if you do ever find it, brace yourself and also ask if you need to see something like that, it will break your heart.

    Trump.

    If Trump does the Iranians in, what with the Palestinians, there will be more flags in Ireland than a f***ing jubilee !! lol
