apparently Alonso's been sacked, it's alleged Granary Bap wasn't a fan Story I heard was that the final straw was after losing to Barcelona in the Supercup at the weekend, Alonso gathered the players to do the traditional guard of honour and Mbappe said no, he wouldn't do it and told the other play...

As much as I dislike Potter (a lot) it's a bit unfair to dig him out about something he allegedly said behind closed doors. Maybe he actually said something more along the lines of we're in for a relegation fight if you continue to play like that. Of course he'd say it in such a tedious, mealy mouth...

I've said this several times before, but I think the only way to get him and Brady out of their executive roles is to put pressure on Kretinsky and Gold's daughter, because they are the ONLY ones with the power to change who is in charge of the club. They might not deserve harassment the way Sulliva...

Where was the loan? Where was the chance to play regularly in the U21s?  Yeah. It was idiotic. If you're going to bring in an expensive 18 year old right winger and already have the likes of Kudus and Bowen then there should be a plan to develop him properly, not have him picking splinters out of h...

Palmer has been unavailable for 11 games through injury this season. They won 9 of them. They've won just one of the 9 games he's actually played in, so making out that he is the main reason Chelsea have improved under Maresca is just plain daft.

Have to point out that Bardot actually finished filming more than 50 years ago now. 

She weren't a bad singer too as it goes. Some of her stuff with Serge Gainsbourg is pretty good.


 

RIP to a real beauty back in the day. One of her relationships was with Roger Vadim, who had more hot totty than even The Swiss. I suspect Vadim of being a #metoo employer who was a bit subtle about it... Getting married is a pretty subtle way of using the casting couch, yeah. Vadim was married/lon...

You're the one who should be muted.

J-L, he got sacked from Southampton last month. He's currently unemployed. Which, worryingly, puts him on Sullivan's radar! He's not ready to manage in the Premier League. He would make a decent #2, though. Oh yeah. Forgot he'd been sacked already. I see that Southampton went from 2 wins in 13 with...

I was listening to a podcast today with Scholes, Butt and Andy Cole. They can’t understand why teams don’t play with 2 centre forwards and 2 proper wingers who get the ball into the box early. I found myself agreeing with them. I’d love to have seen a front 4 of Summerville, Bowen, Wilson and Fullk...

Can't believe anyone ever wanted Will Still as manager. He's just an even more ginger Graham Potter.  Literally the only notable thing he's done in his career was going on a 17 match unbeaten run at Reims when he first started there. After that they were as mediocre as ever. Last season he led Lens ...

You can watch the city match here  https://Betisports.com Beware of this poster lads. They only seem to post links to this site. It's probably dodgy as. Anyone actually clicked on it? Yeah, I did once. Perfect stream. That lasts a couple of minutes. Then asks you to pay to keep watching. Not sure w...

I wonder how Traore is on the left (given that he'd only ever play on the right if Bowen was injured). I think that he's only played there a couple of dozen times in his career.  I was just reading an article quoting his youth team manager describing him as "like a Formula 1 car driven by a chi...

There's no logical reason to sell Earthy unless we are that unbelievably skint that we have to, and he's the only player anyone wants. I was thinking that as he's out of contract next summer then selling before means more money and a decent sell on clause, but given how badly our club handles trans...

Ha ha ha. Good one. 

I've not really considered us getting relegated until now but looking at that fixture list it really don't look good. Can't see us getting more than 35 points. The final game vs Leeds will probably relegate one or the other of us. Even then, we're going to have to pull a blinder in the transfer wind...

They prob felt sorry for him for wasting his season with 5 minute cameos at the end of the game. Like I said the last time you posted this nonsense: It definitely wasn't mostly 5 minute cameos. He played less than 15 minutes in only 6 out of his 40 games for them. He played at least 27 minutes in A...

Okay mate. Don't get upset.

To me AWB is a bit like Trent (once of Liverpool) although not as good in his distribution, quite decent going forward but absolutely useless as a defender, just watch how many times he’s out of position, and to my eyes not busting a gut to get back. I'm not even sure that he's that decent going fo...

Blimey. The leader of the free world really turned his classiness dial up to 11 there, didn't he?

Earthy started 11 games for them last season.   Was gonna say, 37 seemed too much. I remember him struggling to break into their team for the majority of the season. Most of those 37 appearances were 5 minute cameos at the end of the game. It definitely wasn't mostly 5 minute cameos. He played less...

I know people love to think that everything was better in the good old days but if you like at the Oscar winners since it began then every single decade was mostly filled with mediocre films, with the exception of the 70s.

I watched The Chair Company this week. Sometimes hilarious, sometimes annoying, often weird. Imagine The Office written and directed by David Lynch. Proper marmite stuff but worth checking out.
