Some sort of pun about having a well known member

...according to Sky at least.

That stingey show, that's usually on at 3 in the morning on Sky.

As far as I know, there's only one of these shows about one of our ex players (Kenny) yet there's 4 that I know of for Man Utd (Giggs for fucks sake, Bobby Charlton, Best and Cantona, I think *shudders*)

Now how can that be? I could understand if they were saying football started in 1992. In that case, we would barely have any players for this show, while Utd would have shitloads. Yet they've included Charlton and Best and Dalglish. Where's Souness? Barnes? Rush? Keegan? Beardsley? etc etc

You'd swear the (still) most successful club in England only ever had one world class player in Kenny.

The more instances like this, the more I believe that there really is a bias against us, and a bias towards Man Utd in the media when I never used to believe it.

I only read the thread title and I wanted to ask if we really need another Lucas thread.

It might well be bias or indeed it may have a lot to do with rights to clips/games before SKY was on the scene...

What the fuck is 'Giggsy' the 'World's greatest...' of?

'Worlds greatest ever English Welsh footballer who shagged some bint from Big Brother'?

Don't see Giggs or Cantona.. (although it isn't the greatest source)

Yeah I saw that, but I'm pretty sure they carried on making the shows past 2010. I definitely saw one on Giggs.

And I will not stop talking to myself.

Or maybe I will. I don't know. What do you think?

Dunno.

So how do you explain Charlton and Best?
[/quote]

Yep, this.

It seems the birth of this idea was to coincide with the world cup. But did Best even play in a world cup?

It doesn't explain where all the great Liverpool players are in this.
