I like Tevez even more after this quote I saw on the beeb:

"Carlos Tevez shows no sign of letting up in his feud with Gary Neville as he describes his former Manchester United team-mate as a "boot-licking moron".

"My celebration was directed at Gary Neville," Tevez was quoted as saying in a radio interview with ESPN Argentina. "He acted like a complete sock-sucker [boot-licker] when he said I wasn't worth £25m just to suck up to the manager.

"What's the tarado [moron] talking about me for when I never said anything about him."

Neville is a total cock, good on you Carlos

Looks like Duffen may have been getting backhanders from agents.. his assets have now been frozen. This could partly explain why we signed so much dross... (aside from all the other obvious reasons - like poor choice, desparation and fake tan..)

If he has been I hope they hang the f*cker out to dry... esp leaving the club in so much debt.

There's a scum fan sat next to me at work and he really needs to change the record, he's had about six phone conversations and everyone of them has involved what a joke the ref was, that it wasn't a penalty or even a corner and it's only half time. Oh, and he hates Carlos Tevez. It's like a redface post match interview every ten minutes.

Is he from London?

El Hadji Diouf attempts to take Stephen Ireland's "most disgusting car ever" title.

F*ck me - that takes the biscuit...
Mind you, his Chrome Merc looks kinda

Though exhibit A (the Caddy) clearly indicates he has been to the same taste school as Stephen Ireland...

You must beat them!

Just seen this from Saturday. This is what it means to see your League 1 team equalise with a top Premier League club away......

Magic of the cup etc

Great vid too

Pompey's transfer ban lifted and Palace into administration, play off contenders to relegation fodder just like that.

Yup - dirty cnut. And did we get a penalty and Ferdinand sent off?
Did we fuck...

(would have certainly helped the cause at 1:0 down)..

aLICErOBERTSfANkLUB · January 26, 2010, 06:52:12 pm

For all of youse [sic] still unable to get over the disappointment of the FA's [Fabio's?] decision not to release an official World Cup song this year:

Fear not!

For here is someone prepared to step up to the plate!

Er.

"enjoy"

Truly, if we are to be successful on the field of play this summer, we are also in line for an aural treat if one, or any of these modern masterpieces from these plucky lads in these modern beat combos should storm the "hit parade"]

All good for the Sheffield Insolvency scene, I wonder if they declared an interest being Wednesday fans $:-\$

Jaspersharpe · January 27, 2010, 08:48:10 am

Insolvency is the ~~game~~ scam to be in. I've seen cost breakdowns where work experience (i.e. free) staff were charged out at £50 per hour. Managers £400+ etc. Rape the dregs of the company and nobody else gets paid (oh sorry, they get 4p for each £1 owed cos that's all that's left). Easy money.

Baconface has banned Sky Sports from Carrington and any pre-match interviews after they gave up the video evidence for Rio's elbow incident to the FA and kept on replaying Gary Chuckle's finger to Tevez from last Tuesday.

Indeed. Though sadly, the points penalty for going into administration is only 10 points... which means that when/if ManU go bust they'll still be above us in the table

Already getting excited about Saturdays Hull vs Wolves game... (phrases you rarely here outside of Hull or Wolverhampton). Its a cliche, but its probably the biggest game of the season so far - a real 6 pointer. I'm hoping Matalan clad tan boy PBrown picks Amyr Zaki from the start in 442, but he'll probably pack the midfield with 5 of our best sub average players

Looks like Jimmy Bullard is still crocked (probably another couple of weeks) but El Brownio is refusing to rule him out - which may just me mind games to keep Thick McCarthy guessing - but is probably just wishful thinking that he will miraculously step out of the Fox and Feathers in Hessle having had is usual 6 evening pints and be cured...

Richie Crouch · January 29, 2010, 09:33:08 am

Hopefully things will go better this week and Lampard gets crocked rather than a hatful of goals so I can claw back Ian's lead at the top of the table

The big 4 breakaway is still there to see with a top 2 breakaway within that. Could be a big week with a couple of teams playing twice. Finding it really hard to decide who to make captain seeing as Arse v Man U could be any result and Chelski play twice $:-\$

Portsmouth Financial Services anyone?

Not administration, but they will effectively disintegrate very soon IMHO (sorry that sounds rather dramatic!)
They've apparently sold Kaboul & one other for £11 million, which will (I think) keep the administrators from the door and maybe pay the wages. But, this was done behind the back of both the manager and the chief exec! I suspect Avram Grant, Peter Storie or both will leave pretty soon if this is true. So whilst they may not be bust (yet) but they could be without a rudder and a helmsman...
