Paint drying

Submitted by Bubblegirl on

This time of year is such a drag and with my holiday still over a month away finding something to occupy yourself with can be so difficult at times.
I was dragged kicking and screaming by my friends to the Derby at Epsom last weekend "it'll be a lovely day out to the sticks" they said its horse racing i said Zzzz but i went along on that long old journey and i'm sorry being such a city girl but how do people exist when there is next to nothing to do on that vast open space and surrounding area! so thank god for the Prosecco which helped dim the memory of Saturday lol just get me back to the city and the Euros just over a week away i think i can cope till then but only just. So for now it is back to the transfer rumour monger mill and watching the paint dry on my living room walls uggh i dislike this time of year when the football has stopped tennis no horse racing no darts no snooker no rugby mmm maybe at a push.

Young Mr Earthy

So during my lunchbreak yesterday i watched JLo's first day at West Ham video and all the usual stuff you'd expect to see but the one part that made me smile was when you saw Noble shouting George come here what you doing here as they were showing Jlo the training facilities and the young man replied training on your day off? Noble said surprisingly yeah on my own.
Now that is a marvelous attitude to have and to see and if not all sort of fixed to happen yes a tad cynical i know then this young man will go far indeed so well done George and i hope to see you playing in the first team next season.

Don't Know

What's going to happen in the summer?? A lot of current first teamers are out of contract, Mubama, Johnson to leave, can't see Cornet or Ings wanting to stick around either. If Moyes does go, will it mean Benrahma might come back?? Don't really understand why in the £500m that has been spent, Moyes hasn't actually built a squad, in fact he doesn't even have a contingency for when 2 or 3 of our current squad are injured or suspended, hence Bristol City in the Cup.
Ings had started to play well, then the players come back and he's dumped to the bench again, Cornet had come in assisted a goal in Europe, then scored his first goal in the Claret and Blue of West Ham, then dropped again when missing players come back. Not one of the fringe players can ever build up a run of form before being sabotaged by Moyes again. Yes Ings hasn't been all that, and has fluffed his lines a few times, but there is no doubting his talent with the ball played in to his feet, with a few games under his belt.

The England Shirt

Submitted by boogerscaravan on

Now first thing for me to say here is I'm not a fan of the International stage. I pretty much stopped watching meaningless England games decades ago. However, I do watch some qualifiers of substance. Along with tournaments when we are in them.

Would I class myself as a fan? Probably not. But I am a very proud Englishman. When asked am I British? I always say no, I'm English. As a 60 year old Englishman I think I've earned the right to that opinion.

Now that we live in a world full of snowflakes and PC correctness. Something I openly admit to struggling with in society these days. The world is a crazy place as I see it.

Which leads me back on topic. Why have Nike with the backing of the FA tampered with the cross of St George? The cross of St George symbolises England as a nation. It has been on our football shirts for decades. But now some wet wipe at Nike has decided to change the colour. It's now red, blue and purple.

What the actual fvck is going on? How can this happen. Is it because we are supposed to be a diverse society? I'm sorry I'm a traditionalist. Would they mess with the Union Jack? No of course they would not. So what gives them the right to mess with the nations identity?

We are not the British football team. We are not Scotland, Wales or Ireland. We are England and we have an identity. That identity is the cross of St George.

Fvcking wet wipes boil my piss!!!!

Stan The Man

Submitted by boogerscaravan on

Just wanted to say Stan Bowles RIP.

Growing up as a kid, there were certain footballers back in the early 70's. That had that x factor even back then. An evolution of mavericks if you like? Frank Worthington, Rodney Marsh, Stan Bowles, Tony Currie, and of course the greatest of all George Best.

Even back then, they were different. Did different things on the pitch. Saw the game differently if you like. They were the reason I took my ball over the green every day after school.

Stan Bowles was one of the greats, like the rest in the group, Not exactly a role model, but my god what a player!!
