Soz. I'll try to be less subtle next time.

I think Brendan has this up as a poster in his office. Any time he needs to check if Spurs have usually been better than us, it's all there, in glorious technicolour.
This 13 year old kid made his debut for Celtics U20s.
Here's some vids of him toying with kids his age:
Man, that's fucking horrible. He's still just a little kid. At that age it could be dangerous for him to play with guys twice his size.
Very irresponsible by Celtic.
The Black Messi.
Easily better than all the YouTube vids I've seen of our youth & reserves in a long, long time.
Here's the solution to that.
You answer "1990. Since then we have won countless other trophies including a European Cup. When your lot didn't win the league for 26 years, what did you win? 2 FA Cups and a Cup winners cup? Oh and you got relegated too. "
Said calmly it works beautifully for me. Especially with the young 'uns. They're basically being reminded that football didn't start in 93. If they bang on about us always bringing up our "history"? Remind them that they brought it up.
I love getting under the skin of fans of other teams who see me as an easy target because I'm not Scouse or because their team is on the up for the first time in years. As soon as the glory hunter, bin dipper, thieving scouser comments come out, then I know I've won. That's when you walk away, responding to insults is pointless in my opinion. Debating with facts is good. Especially if the facts are on your side of the debate!
He'd cost a lot I reckon.
He gets teams promoted
So he's not one of the 8 shady managers the press were talking about then?
I think that story died when the source admitted he made most of it up.
Expect Allardyce to resume a PR campaign shortly about losing his job unjustly, because I think this whole "Football can be bought" story has died on its arse, and all they actually had was Hasselbaink agreeing to do some jollies, some other bloke taking £5,000 and Fat Sam talking shit while half-cut, plus the aforementioned "agent" making things up.
Yeah, I expect that to happen as well.
Unless his alleged pay-off included a clause about keeping his fat gob shut.
Something his original contract should have had in it IN GIANT LETTERS
I was at that game! Along with my mates I think we made up about half the crowd. Anfield seemed half empty, we rarely filled cup games in the early rounds back then.
Me too - dont particualrly remember it being half empty.
I do remember one of the goals was from a free kick for a backpass (dont see that much nowadays) - indirect & in the area. Fulham setup a 10 man wall, and Fowler loitered by the 18 yard line. Ball was rolled to him & BANG!
I was there at that and at the first leg which was a monsoon like Putney.
Fowler scored a goal on the half volley as it came across him and made it look like he'd been doing it all his life. It was his first game if I remember correctly.
He also hit the bar in the second leg as well as scoring 5
Milik tore his ACL ... maybe they can buy Balotelli for 15 million in Jan?
