  1. One of their mother’s on TV bleating about her missing her brother’s wedding. These comments are on the money and I couldn’t have put it any better…
  2. This is what happens when you let women out the kitchen. Oh to have the country run by white men in suits again.
  3. Football fans are notoriously fickle, but the rollercoaster England have been on the last few weeks has been on a different level. On Sunday there were online polls to debate whether Southgate should be knighted, by Sunday night the polls were about sacking him. Only as good as your last game…
  4. Sounds like he was in some pretty rough and difficult to access terrain. I would have thought within a few days in the heat out there a cadaver dog would have picked him up. Still, 29 days they searched and didn’t turn him up. Sounds strange but then I’m no expert in searching for corpses. At least his family have at least one answer and can bury him now.
  5. I’d happily vote for the death penalty but it should only be used in exceptional cases and for the most heinous of crimes. A conviction must satisfy the criteria for reasonable doubt. Modern forensics etc. can often remove ANY doubt. Murder with provocation such as a jilted spouse etc. I’d still impose a custodial sentence, but murder of a stranger for or following sexual gratification and especially of kids, death penalty.., no question.
  6. Agree with you on Bellingham, he has the makings of a hell of a player. And my ‘bottle jobs’ comment was probably a bit harsh but, whether it be individual performances or Southgate’s cautious approach, England’s big names failed to leave their mark on the tournament. I don’t even enjoy ramming failure down the throats of the average England fan (excepting maybe the 10 German bombers/boo your national anthem mob) it’s the relentless bullshit from media, with ex-players being the worst. The link below is just one example of the p!sh I am fed up paying to listen to.., a bit of humble pie wi

    Obesity.

    Attended by multi millionaire and former Labour PM Tony Blair no less. I’d imagine Keir Hardie will have turned in his grave.
  8. Thread about the national team but change it to the league if you want. The EPL is the biggest financially.., granted, but still Bellingham opted for Spain.., CR7 went there as soon as he could.., Messi wouldn’t come to England. Real Madrid have as many EC’s as English teams combined. As for the football, I pretty much stopped watching 4 or 5 years ago.., all these risk averse tactical attritions are boring affairs for the spectator, I’d rather watch lower league or Scottish football. And as for the players, all I hear from the English media is how this might be the most talented squad ever…,
  9. Scotland were poor.., well beaten by Germany, drew with the Swiss (you’ll remember them as you needed penalties to beat them) and sucker punched by Hungary chasing a winner. That’s about our level. England on the other hand went in as favourites, were poor in the group stage, handed a very easy run to the final versus the other half of the draw, and were lucky to get to the final with a last minute equaliser and surviving penalties. I think the only half decent performance was against a poor dutch team. Thin line my arse, England were fcuking abject this tournament.., this thread is ful

    Obesity.

    The gluttony on display at these all-inclusive hotels has to be seen to be believed.., it’s like something out of an Orwell novel. As you say the kids are the worst…, breakfast lunch and dinner, plates piles high with cakes, pancakes, waffles and doughnuts drowning in chocolate sauce and ice cream. And the waste is downright immoral.
  11. Think you’ll find that it’s you that’s being bred out your own country. Even a team half full of immigrants couldn’t bring it home. Didn’t you flee England?
  12. Thread about the Euros and you started the hate on the Scots. I hope you’re f***ing sick for weeks with this failure. For the record I’d don’t hate or dislike English folks, some of my favourite and most loved people on this planet are English. I just love seeing the arrogant entitled ones getting their comeuppance. Of all the large European nations, England are the biggest hype-jobs and bottle merchants by a country mile. One world cup where every game you played was at Wembley. Contrast that with the wins in major tournaments of Germany (8), Italy (6), France (4), Spain (5). Seria
  13. Shot your bolt a bit early. England got an easy ride and rode a lot of luck to get to the final. Definitely nowhere near even the second best team in the competition.
  14. Get that right fcukin up you.
  15. Were the USA millimetres away from all out civil war?
  16. Demolition job. Hopefully the first part of the Spanish double.
  17. I’d guess that elite level women’s sport there’ll be a disproportionately large amount of gay women.., and conversely smaller proportion of gay men at the top of men’s sport. In general: Gay boys = not much interested/sh!t at sports Gay girls = hell bent on ‘competing’ with men/better than straight women at sport I care not one iota about whether a sportsperson is gay or straight, only that the best man/woman wins. And as long as some sneaky fcuker of a man doesn’t don a skirt, change their name and think they can line up with girls.
  18. Couple of lads out fishing in any inner city always going to run the risk of running into a pack of delinquents.., the fact that this one is an immigrant only makes it a double whammy on the annoyance scale. It’s a hard watch but much less damaging than a gang of Eastern Europeans knocking everything on the head and taking away carrier bags full of mature fish off a decent bit of water and ruining the fishing potentially for years to come. I’d make it illegal to kill and take any coarse fish in the UK, and strictly licence the taking of wild game fish. Imagine if the law went after these envir
  19. Apparently the colour of people’s skin matters to some…, but they’re not racist. I’m confused.
  20. England were awful. So much attacking talent and they sat off the Swiss like they were Brazil. Switzerland the better team over 120 minutes for me. England at least look like they’ve got a team of penalty takers…, and I reckon they’re going to need them.
  21. And so it starts You switch the engine on We set controls for the heart of the sun One of the ways we show our age
  22. Your post struck a chord with me. I’ve been doing the same(ish) type of job for nearly 20 years. Guys I worked with years ago (mostly dead and a few retired) probably forgot more about the job than some of the fcuking idiots I work with now. I’m 52 and I know it’s my job to be a bit grumpy and moan about how things were always better in ‘ the good old days’ but recently I’ve realised that I’m actually fcuking miserable. Problem is I’m earning a lot more than I think I could if I moved on, and at my age it’s a bit of a daunting thought. Feels like a bit of a crossroads and I’m sort of in the pr
  23. Sadly the man managers, the ones who could incentivise men and gain their respect, are much thinner on the ground nowadays.
