When football was football...now there is far too much expectation for the money that is spent in the first place and to be honest it's just not as much fun anymore is it? Billy always gave the impression that just to be on the pitch and getting paid to play football for a living was the biggest thr...

Kinda weird people digging Nuno out at the moment. We all agree he’s made some seemingly crazy decisions but he has also learnt from them, which is what I want to see. The downfall of Potter and Moyes is just how stubborn they were. They needed to prove to everyone around them how smart they are. V...

Kilman has the attention span of a goldfish. A classic case of believing the agent and press speculation that someone is good rather than doing the homework yourselves over a long period of time to make a better judgement.  Nobody was in for him...at that price, those wages and length of contract.  ...

A massive alarm bell went off in my head when I saw the name... Heatherwick Studio A jumped up designer who thinks he's an architect. He designed the Boris bus which cost about £350,000 quid each when any other bus which does the same job is about half the price.  He's also had a hand in the new Goo...

If ever somebody decides to make a film loosely based on Sullivan's life and activities in the big smoke instead of it becoming the stuff of legend like The Long Good Friday with Bob Hoskins it will most certainly become the stuff of infamy and be called "The Wrong Bad Hard-On"

I think he split from his girlfriend whom is worth serious money.  He was attached to the ex-show jumper and daughter of Petr Kellner who was the richest person in the Czech Republic before he died in a helicopter crash in 2021. He owned PPF Group which was a huge conglomerate of various interests....

That's true enough. The last promoted team to win the 1st division was of course managed by Clough himself at Forest. Even into the 80s there wasn't a massive gap between the two divisions but the Premier League money changed all that. When we got relegated in the 70s it was easier to keep the like...

the jock hated anderson so much that he used that LW spot to punish players he disliked, it was like a graveyard for out of position non favourites For somebody who looks like an actual undertaker whenever Moyes pulled that shit stroke the poor bastard who ended up stuck there knew exactly what it ...

To be fair to Cloughie, back in those days the difference between first and second division was very slight. You could just about slip a cigarette paper between the two.  If you knew how to stick the ball in the back of the net then it wasn't really a huge step up to make. A lot of teams who won the...

He was a tidy player - not spectacular but did his best considering the vast majority of the time Moyes nearly always used him as a utility man out of his favoured position.  He would've been ideal playing on the right side of a 3 man midfield. He certainly had the mobility and quick feet to do tha...

Under the thick claret and blue paint? What about to sticky shit on the floors? Is the Queens still there, that had proper claret and blue decoration. The sticky carpet to end all sticky carpets...at least I think that's what was under all the shit I always enjoyed all the faded Shoot! posters with...

A shithole is generally a place which has no redeeming features whatsoever. Some of the best vegetarian curries in London are in the vicinity of our old ground plus the spectacular all singing all dancing refurbishment of The Boleyn. I think a fair few of us suspected something special was hiding un...

Sport Witness West Ham, Fulham and Everton in contact for 21-year-old gem – €20m+ required West Ham, Fulham and Everton are the latest Premier League clubs following Palmeiras midfielder Allan Elias. Spanish journalist Eduardo Burgos, from AS, reports that all three have already made enquiries abou...

Chelsea and Spurs are looking at Jonathan David who signed on a free for Juventus. Apparently they aren't too convinced by him but it's a bit unfair considering the way they are run is similar to the he Man Utd shit show of recent years.

Another one who we were linked to for ages bites the dust 

Couple of murmurs saying Sullivan might can Brady. Is this the last act of a desperate man? The final and ultimate bus throwing? He's nowhere to go after that if he goes through with it. He will be fully exposed. Can't see that ever happening. She'll simply release the (#MeToo) details on how they ...

Also Felipe Anderson was a huge disappointment - maybe not the worst but another overpriced, badly scouted misfit with very little presence on the pitch - totally unsuitable for the Prem  To think he was probably signed to more or less play the role Alan Dev used to do back in the day! Unbelievable ...

Sheffield FC (red and blacks)  v Hallam FC (blues) is the oldest derby as obviously they are also oldest clubs in the world 1857 & 1860  Sheffield Wednesday (1867) and Sheffield United (1889) came much later because the original clubs wished to remain amateurs playing to the original rules they ...

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣   I want to give the benefit of doubt to the club here.  Surely they're not THAT thick to think this was ever a good thing to do and it's made up bollocks.     It's like watching an episode of Colombo and thinking the person at the end isn't the same one who caved somebody's skul...

I could be wrong but none of them strike me as the kind to have ever played Football. Might sound trivial but when they preach to all and sundry on the Club website and the like it strikes me as very odd to take their expertise in the game seriously. If they are making a living out of it fair play ...

I hope he can follow up with a good performance against Burnley, this fanbase is crying out for someone to get behind who has a bit about them. We have Bowen but much as he's a great player, he's not a captain and isn't vocal enough. Potts looks like he has more about his personality for the role o...

Who needs analytics or databases when you consistently pull such gems from the bottom of the agents spreadsheet. The NERDS gave him a big thumbs up.  I'm not convinced by their calculations, considering they bigged up Hermansen also. 'Strong, intelligent and and deceptively skillful' | Niclas Füllk...

He never was or is 1 of the best Strikers in the world. Not even close. A total myth that some got suckered in to believing when he arrived for big dough. His numbers aint even that good for a start, mainly doing it bobbling about in 2 Bunderdliga divisions.  Coupled with his awful medical history ...
