Park Ji-Sung made his 200th appearance for United last weekend in our 3-3 draw with Chelsea.
When Park joined United for £2m in 2005 several people claimed it was just to appeal to the Asian market in order to sell more shirts. Those people obviously didn’t watch him play for PSV against AC Milan in the Champions League a few months before we bought him.
Since then he has won four league titles and has developed the reputation of a big game player, having scored against the likes of Liverpool, Arsenal and Chelsea.
“I am proud to reach this mark,” said Park. “I never thought I could play 200 matches for Manchester United. Some people did say those things (shirt-seller) when I came here. Now no-one says it. I am very happy that I proved Asian players can deal with the high levels of European football. Before I came here, I believed I could do it but I wasn’t sure. But the manager believed in me. He encouraged me to deal with these kinds of levels. He told me to fight. That made a big difference for me to adapt to English football.”
Man Utd News 24/7
Important player who still has a part to play in #20.
Park is all over the park! got to love the world’s most humble football player!
Park has been a cracking servant for this club. No complaints and put in some winning crosses and goals. He really stepped up time and again. Hope he bounces back from that injury and contributes a few more goals this year. Always like a midfielder who gets on with his job and not afraid to shoot.
The entire time Luis Suarez has been in England, I keep thinking “This guy reminds me of someone” but I couldn’t think who.
Now, it’s finally hit me. He’s Javier Mascherano redux. So many similarities.
Apologies in advance if this turns a JS Park thread into a “Rat faced misbehaved foreign Liverpool players who happen to be See You In Tee’s” thread.
we love you man….
Proper footballer and quite possibly the best/most-fitting nick name in football.
We love you 3 Lung!!
Those who even thought he was bought to sell shirts at the time are just daft. I saw glimpses of him at PSV and more so playing for his country at various tournaments. Has always been an immense player for us and as I always say he is the most tactically gifted player in our squad.
Park has been a wonderful player for United.
200 games, wow! What a milestone, well done Park Ji-Sung! Thank you!
Also, well done Sir Alex! Yet another player who recognises the key role that Fergie plays.
Top notch signing, well spotted Sir Alex.
Park Park where ever you may be you sell shirts in your own country.
Could be worse You could be Scouse dealing drugs in your council house.
We all love you. Park the Asian Bomber.
Don’t know anyone else that sells shirts and has also scored 10 goals agains the likes of Chelsea, Liverpool, Arsenal and Milan.
Mind you now that he is getting on he might be down graded to just 2 Lungs Park!
James
Hi pal, love those chants
Cedars
He might be down graded to Iron Lung Park.
Furthermore this whole ‘selling shirts in Asia’ is a media myth. Not like they’re going to buy them in Japan, China or North Korea for that matter. Only place I could see him selling shirts in would be his home country.
Ignorance may be a bliss, however if it hurt, you would hear their screams for all corners for the earth.
Can’t stand the lad. Hope he goes in the summer.
I love Park. Not JUST a work horse but has technical ability too and can do any task given to him, like marking Pirlo for example. Really hope he see’s his career out at United. Top pro.
Common feature of Park goals his
i. him busting a gut
ii. fantastic cool composed finish.
Away goal v Chelsea might be one of his best for me
Lots of great goals for country as well, but here is a compilation of United goals.
Lots of nice memories.

HE EATS WHAT HE WANTS……
:LOL:
fucking smileys
A share…….
This happened earlier this afternoon.
Was round at a friends place for coffee, his kid (15) loves the game with a passion however he cannot make his mind up on who to support. One day it Barca, another its Real and so on. So the kid asks me why do I support United…. I just smiled and sat him down next to me and told him the story…
An hour or so later his eyes were totally lit up and he said to me that from this moment on he cannot ever imagine supporting anyone else but United……
Another soul saved
When you add up his goals against Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpool he’s scored about 10 from midfield as it is, and thats only from 200 games so he couldn’t of played them that many times. Park’s a proper player who gives his all every single time – can’t ask for more. The word class is thrown about a lot but Park is without doubt a Class player, and his contributions to our success since his arrival has been huge.
Thanks for that Cedars. A real Kodak moment. Much appreciated.
Thanks Willie, your thanks are always appreciated. Many thanks and thanks once again.
Thanks
Rumors Don Carlo has resigned? Any old iron!
Wheres my head? Don Fabio!
Paul Parker
Hahaha, please do not go there again in terms of cuisine!
Capello is gone. Arthur Daly to the rescue!
“Another soul saved”
Hahahahaha, awesome Cedars
Capello quits! http://www.thefa.com/England/News/2012/080212.aspx

Park eats Spam in his own country.
Willie its true. How anyone can Resign over that prick Terry is beyond me.
Willie
You need to lay off twitter pal, just look at what its done to the likes of Costas, STR etc. I heard they have AAA type meetings for such things now. Find an address and get to one asap
ididnotzeeit
What can I say? This Devil works in mysterious ways! haha
@Willierednut – he’s a bottle job imo. He’s put up with a lot more than this and the timing is a bit too convenient. He knew full well his interview was controversial so I think he knows what he’s doing. Lets face it England were absolutely shit in South Africa, unbelievably woeful, and that was on his expert Italian watch. I’ve never seen England look SO SHIT IN MY LIFE, in fact they went backwards under Don Carlo so im not surprised he wasn’t up for further damaging his reputation. He’s supposed to be one of the best coaches in the world, right? Ha. I say bring on Dodgy Arry! Beyond the media darling hype I honestly think he’d do a much better job with English players than this muppet could. 7 million a year well spent aye? Farcical Arseholes.
@Cedars – couldn’t help it mate!
Thanks again Cheddars.
Park park where you may be
We didn’t buy you to sell shirts in your own country
It could have be worse we could have bought Dong let’s not forget you have the best song
So its official then, Crapello is gone. Terrible news for England, they have no chance of winning anything now……….. Oh wait
Paul Parker – I was tempted to be honest
hello lads
Fabio Capello has resigned as England manager
great night of football
juve -milan barca-valencia
i am watching can semi finals mali-ivory coast tiote looks good he is like Claude Makelele
Cedars
I can just see it now. “Barca or Madrid, I just can’t make a decision…”
Cedars calmly sits on the sofa, pats the cushion next to him
“Make a pot in there mate, your son and I need to have a chat.”
The “babes and the fledglings” is certainly an easier conversation than the “birds and the bees!!!!”
Don’t matter who replaces Capello. England aren’t good enough. Unless they build the team around TC, Welbeck, Wilshere and Jones, they won’t ever move forward. Incorporate the younger talent around the likes of Rooney. Only way to progress the national team ERungland!
Gervinho score 1-0

Hahaha, that is not far from how it actually happened to be honest! Mind you at 15 the kid had his ‘birds and bees’ story ages ago! Thank God!
Willie
Whoever replaces him, surely they’d be of sound mind to award Carrick a starting role over Gareth “Pants” Barry.
If I’m the FA, I write that in the contract. Lord knows it won’t happen and Scotty Parker would get a fucking start over over our often maligned but much beloved Michael Carrick.
Sigh, I know many of you (most in fact) are not 3 Lions fans, but, sadly, I’m one of the outliers that still holds hope that one day we lift a major trophy. I know in my heart that day won’t come, perhaps, I`m a glutton for punishment. The many delights of United have equipped me to deal with the many follies of the EMNT.

First time I saw Park play was for PSV, just the AC Milan game.
At the time I thought his name was Lee Young Pyo – (Mix up of players). Thought he was a terrorist, he kept on chasing the ball, running with it everytime he touched it. Seemed like a headless chicken on RedBull trying to fly with the rest of the ducks (AC MILAN).
Alex Ferguson said about Park: “He is the most persistent player I have ever train. His average in season 2008/2009 was more that 17 kilometres per match.”
Cedars
Thank Christ mate! Can just imagine your reaction when the little lad ends all the fun by saying, “well now that that`s settled, where do babies come from“
“Mate, forget the pot of coffee, grab the Jameisons and one glass….“
Papii
‘Thought he was a terrorist’ Just burst a lung, that was fucking hilarious, I kid you not tears are rolling down
ididnotzeeit – Barry over Carrick has always baffled me? Crazy!
Middlesbrough0 – 0Sunderland
what do you think of James McClean?
Clint @ 19:59: I also saw ThreeLungPark star for PSV against what was then an outstanding Milan midfield – Pirlo/Gattuso/Seedorf – and he was the star of the match. Getting him for 2,000,000 was a steal. A great team-player who understands that there’s no”I” in team.
ididnotzeeit
If that was the case my reaction would have been ‘mate, forget about the coffee, something urgent has come up and I have to piss off’ haha
Capello’s decision might be linked with today’s verdict on Harry. At least it does in my mind. I just didn’t realize that Redknapp might be called upon this soon. Poor Spurs. NOT!
As for Capello, you live by the sword you die by the sword. He was adamant about Terry being his captain. He even treated Rio Ferdinand like crap for that reason. So I understand why he quit. The sad part, is that Capello has tainted his legacy as a top manager forever. Not because England were shit at the World Cup. As if that hasn’t happened before! But because time and time again he defended a vile, racist, despicable scum in John Terry and stood up for him. No excuse for that. After the Bridge affair, Terry should be begging to play again for England. Not feeling “devastated” because they stripped him off the captaincy for another transgression 2 years later.
England – What a bunch of hopeless knobs. This simple team would get them far.
Play;
Hart
JONES Richards SMALLING Cole
Parker CARRICK CLEVERLEY
ROONEY WELBECK YOUNG.
Subs; Stockdale, Walker,Cahill, Lescott,SCHOLES, Milner,Walcott, Oxlade, Bent, Sturridge.
Then again their hopeless and believe their
star men are :JT,Lamps,Stevie G, Johnson, Barry, etc.
Bring in Steve Bruce !
The more United players in the England squad, the poorer they will play during the summer months of country competitions because, as SAF has always stated, those top players from top clubs in England are too knackered mentally and physically to carry their country through any significant country after playing for 10 months in multiple competitions.
Denton -
I remember Park running but thats about it. Bad memory on my part but his efforts to make PSV win was impressive and very admirable. I remember many talked about “this chinese guy for PSV” because he was that unknown.
who could have predicted he would be star for us all those years back? I even think SAF was a bit suprised at the signing he just made, theres more to park then meets the eye. I believe he’ll get even better with age.
Cedars -
Terrorist
I actually dont remember typing that, must of spilled over from the fingertips. Honestly he was terryfying, all that running and tackling….HE COULD BLOW UP ANY MINUTE NOW.
Redknapp for England, Mourinho for Spurs ? Too small for him.
http://www.manutd.com/en/News-And-Features/Football-News/2012/Feb/ji-sung-park-wont-stand-still.aspx?pageNo=1
The full article.
He is a class act and became a true Premier League player now. I saw him in recent games when he rarely lost the ball and even resisted to some physical challenges.
DENTON DAVEY FOR INGERLAND?
YOU ALL KNOW IT MAKES SENSE – I couldn’t be worse than Don Fabio.
Denton davey – thats for sure mister!
)
Capello blasts the FA in the Italian press lol. What a huge fucking mess!
Yeah Denton, but you wouldn’t get De Rossi to play for you.
Shit Denton I don’t think even I’d be any worse for England (at least according to my managerial skills in Fifa 12… lol) than Craphello, worse for the United squad though probably as I’d play almost a full United squad in International duty…
Good Day everyone!
Has anyone else seen this yet?
http://www.goal.com/en/news/9/england/2012/02/08/2893993/what-happens-on-the-pitch-stays-on-the-pitch-liverpools-luis
What a Grade-A Asshole!?
What else do you need more than these comments to prove that this guy is the jerk of all jerks
The plot thickens, or is that term not applicable? Denton has my vote for the England job, at least he cannot select Berba! hahaha
Wow Capello resigns. Well the FA wanted him out so has the good people of England. I can’t help but think this will bite them in the arse. On the other hand maybe they’ll get a manager that can relate to the players because God knows they need a miracle and then some to have any kind success at the tournaments they play in
Crapello.
Nice.
As far as succesors go, I’d go with Marcello Lippi personally.
Its the FA that has to go. Not all England fans wanted Capello out although he is a Cunt for supporting Captain Racist Shagger. But my specs are Red tinted.
Marcello’s bottom lippi just fell flat at that thought?
‘ We have maihem here and United are 3 nil up, Alex Ferguson is the calmest man at ………….’
First correct answer as to which game this commentary line comes from gets a Cedars special
Funny as fuck… I can sense an sequel to walcotts’s biography this summer!
Cheers ya’ll.
Have a good one.
*a sequel. Bugger me.
Cedars
is it that Pepsi ad?
I don’t think Denton would fit with the England job? He’s a square peg in a round hole….
Lippi in Greek means sadness willie, so if I had to make a play with words, I’d say Marcello is feeling plenty of Lippi at that prospect.
@redrider
Lol, Walcott’s biography. What a life he’s led. I’d love to read the chapter about a certain game. I bet he’d 8-2 write about it.
‘ We have maihem here and United are 3 nil up, Alex Ferguson is the calmest man at ………….
Ascot Races?
Norwich game Cheddars?
redrider
Nope not a Pepsi ad, it comes from a quite famous United victory
BBC News: Fabio Capello resigns from the England job.
An Italian abandoning a sinking ship, who would have thought it?
Ha! Prize goes to Willie……
James – Ascot Races? hahahaha
Costas
Oh yeah… but they’ve got a 7-1 recently so I don’t think he’d w8-2 write that!
All I remember of him on that day was lashing out at that rightback of theirs…
Willie let us know how the Cedars special was after you both are done!
I won!
Happier than Don Fabio! 
@redrider
That was in true Walcott fashion mate. A 23 year old experienced campaigner that knows enough about life and football to write a biography and lecture his team mates during games. He was 2 years old when Giggs debuted ffs.
Costas
He’s 23?! Slap me sideways!
He still thinks he’s 17 I guess. I have lost track of the leeway he’s got from the media on the account of his ‘youth’.
Another one, much easier though……
‘I told you have an hour ago, this is Liverpool’s day’
Naming all scorers in the said match will win you the prize
i don’t get this joke on Italians abandoning sinking ships. People lost their lives on that cruise, if i’m not mistaken. Not much to smile about considering it happened no a month ago. Seen it doing the rounds on the interwebs and i’m a bit miffed to be honest
Watching the Copa del rey and gotta say, Barcelona don’t look as imperious. Champions league is going to be very interesting next year. Really hope we see the United squad be a bit more settled onward leading up to next season. There’s a lot to look forward to
Thats it for me. Have a good rest of season. This blog has lost all humour and people have become so touchy, you can’t say fuck all. If I’d actually mocked the dead then fair enough Its actually mocking the fucking Coward of a captain. Much Laters. 20
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lfr1unjdqDM
Lick you chops on this. Welcome to Manchester!
Cedars – Owen for the dippers. Yorkie and Ole for United? Easy!
James – Whats up?
slim
What on earth are you on about? The captain of the said ship fled like a fucking coward, that is a FACT…..
Do not really see your point pal…….. How can having a laugh at a coward be put in the same frame as mocking the dead?
James21
see it doesn’t take much to set you off. chill out pal, the joke is a bit tasteless you gotta admit,and if you don’t see it that way no need to go on exile on my account or anyone else’s for that matter. Personally when i hear it i think of the people caught up in that tragedy. Reckon you love United and ROM so i guess we’ll be seeing you in a little while. “Thats it for me”? lol yeah right
Willie
You are some sort of hero……….. Just harvested all my prizes for the night!
slim
You are a proper wum, I for one do not mind you but you do have a knack for stirring trouble and well done to you, it takes some skill to do that. However please spare me the ‘I am righteous’ Bollocks
CedarsDevil
he did? is this the same ship that fell on its side, can’t remember where.
Anyway i reckon he “fled” after the accident. And if that is the case then i don’t get the reference to the sinking ship. Not as if he abandoned them in the middle of the Atlantic and left the passengers to fend for themselves and if he did do that and lives were lost , it would still be a tad bit tasteless in my book because make no mistake that would be a terrible experience as is what actually happened. For fuck sake they’re still looking for bodies.
I’m gonna drop it now, i hardly point out stuff people say on here anyway but this particular incident resonated with me in a strong way
by incident i mean what happened on the ship
slim – That joke was told on Talksport tonight. A tweet, no less.
CedarsDevil
really. A wum? Me? Never been called that. Guess there’s a first for everything.
WillieRedNut
yeah, thats actually the second place i heard it, noticed it around for a while now to be honest. Guess i just don’t find it funny. Not trying to shut any one down i mean each to their own and all that
maybe its being old fashioned or a lack of sense of humour like James said but for me when things like what took place on that ship happens i rarely see the funny side of anything about it. But hey thats just me. I’ll leave it at that. Not trying to stir anything up.
slim
As I said, please spare me the ‘self righteous’ bollocks. The captain of the said ship is or was a coward….. Still looking for bodies? My thoughts are with their families….
Now Mr wum, show me where did James mock the dead? He made a joke about a coward of a captain….. Now either buy a sense of humor or get one for free
Just saying. The intention wasn’t to offend anyone. It was read out on live radio. No complaints, as far as I know.
Every single thing Englands Great Brave and Loyal John Terry touches becomes poisioned and destined to crumble. What a hateful individual. He has led dressing room revolts to unsettle and eventually rid some of the modern games most successful managers. A world cup winner in Scolari, not to mention numurous Brazilian state and South American championships, a 2 time Champions League winner, not to mention as accomplished a player that has played for Italy in the last 30 years, in Ancellotti and now his chest-thumping bravado has led to a manager of the ability and respect of Capello to be shown the door. What is it with the English media that make JT out to be some legendary player of heroic proportions? Where is their memory? Larsson for Sweden highlighted his disgracefully poor positioning in the World Cup and his was responsible for 2, if not 3, of Germanys goals in the 5-1 rout in South Africa.What about his “snot-blowing” down onto Tevez in the Champions League final in 2008? The single most overated player in my 30 years of watching football. Not to mention his hateful personality. Thank fuck Fergie didn’t sign him when he looked at him all those years ago. No anticipation, positioning, acceleration or speed and is always a fraction of a second behind play, hence, his “heroic” lion-hearted last ditch blocks and tackles. A twat of the highest order.
Imagine this scenario:
Harry Redknapp takes over England and just before the Euros, had a mild heart attack and guess which friend was asked to take over? Sir Alex! and he agreed to, till Harry recovers. Rio is now captain and Scholesy replaces that Gareth-what-his-name in midfield with Carrick alongside. Rooney scores the goal to win the trophy. United > England!
slim
Calling you a wum was actually a compliment……. and come ON you are one of the highest order pal and you know it
Rooney tweeted there now. Gutted for Capello. Wants Redknapp as manager.
james- that was a funny joke any cunt that dosen’t get it can go get a head /humour transplant
G’day mates, gotta question for the Manchester lads. Saturday’s match is scheduled for 12:45. Anyone know if that’s the actual kick-off time, or will it be more like 1pm? I still don’t have TV access here but there’s some sports clubs nearby that may show it. (One of them is within drunken staggering distance!) I can’t bear the thought of missing this one! But I may run into issues with closing hours. 12:45 in the UK is 10:45pm here. Most of the bars shut around 1am. If the match kicks off at 12:45 in Manchester, it would end around 12.30am or a little later here. I just don’t want to sit there sinking piss and getting excited, only to miss the last few minutes if it goes beyond 3pm UK time. Any advice would be appreciated. Cheers!
Stateside
Match kicks off at 12.45 UK time……. That is when the ref would place the ball at the center circle and blow his whistle in case you did not know! haha
I guess some people on here are a bit precious. Is this the same cowardly fuck of a captain who left the ship ahead of women and young kids? The same cowardly fuck of a captain who when asked how many people were left on the ship he replied the evacuation was almost complete when it had hardly begun? The same cowardly fuck of a captain who was ordered to return to his ship by the coast guards and refused?! A terrible tragedy where a lot of innocent people lost their lives, however, the captain deserves no sympathy in my humble opinion and If you ask the families of those who drowned I’m sure they’ll give you the same response. The joke mocks capello and uses this captain as a crutch! I don’t see the problem!
So…. Judging by post match analysis of United games are we going to see anyone from ROM apply for the England job?!
The time in Madchester is the same time in Belfast. So, 12.45!
CedarsDevil
A compliment? What kind of compliment is that?
Spare you the self righteous bollocks? Lol. You? Yeah mate do me favor and do one.
Mike – I’ve threw my United hat into the ring? Don’t think I’ll be hearing back from the FA….
slim
Among family and friends I am known as a wum, it takes special skill to wind up people by uttering complete nonsense…. So YES it was a compliment
Stateside
Alright fella. Yeah, 12.45! Means a liquid breakfast for me on Saturday!
Mikekelly12
No qualms from me on that one. The captain actions were shameful. maybe its the whole incident and the way i perceived it. For me i hear the joke and i think of the unfortunate people, others hear it and think of the guy who was supposed to be captain of the ship.
Sheesh i’m done with this, i guess if i see something that rubs off the wrong way i’ll just shut it
Willie
You’re perfect for the job!!! They’d be ridiculous to overlook you!!
Did I say 5-1? Of course it was 4-1. It just felt like 5-1.
CedarsDevil
really? can’t say i’m surprised to be honest. i can definitely see how your friends and family call you a wum. No arguments from me on that one
Redknapp will be england manager in the euro
ivory coast into the final hope zambia will shock theme like they did against ghana ( gyan missed another crucial penalty)
barca played like shit until they get a valencia player sent off, all too familiar stench of cheats diving and getting players sent off. That’s the stench of Barcelona. Filthy, diving CHEATS!
the sun reported that tom cleverly is fit and ready for racistpool match
huge boost
what about jones smaling?
slim
Its a special skill, one that can be funny and on the other hand can be daft too…… Personally i possess the former
Why the fuck is keane having a go at wayne?. Completely irrelevant to the match.
in my opinion, park was never here to solely sell shirts. we bought park because he was a good player.why on earth would we waste monry on a player just to get global appeal in a region where United are already treated like rock stars. congratulations park on joining the 200 club and i wish best of luck on the pitch with United.
Sessegnon 113’sunderland win it
they are in the next round
happy for jhon and wes and all our ex player at sunderland
well done Martin O’Neill very good manager
also i think fergie would choke himself to death before accepting the england job. the england job is as good as death. you are tortured by the position everyday. i would not wish my sworn enemy such bad luck as to manage england in ANY SPORT.
Park is awesome. My kids love to call him ” Lung” when he comes on.
Number 20 is in sight!
Soy Sauce
Do you for one minute think that Fergie would even consider it?
Keane might as well do…….every other person in England has.
England will soon realise the blunder they have made in getting rid of a manager with a great pedigree when they go to the euros and get thumped by france.
It’s not capello’s fault that england possess mostly average players with expectations of fans beyond realism. Did they expect to win the world cup in south africa with heskey, barry, upson? fucking ridiculous.
Now they’ve made him resign as the manager who has won the champions league e.t.c, they’ll replace with that overrated bumbling wheeler dealer. Can’t wait to watch them crumble under the guidance of t’riffic redknapp.
Samuel
Was Keane having a go at wayne the RoM poster or Wayne Rooney the player?
Who SERIOUSLY gives a flying fuck about Ingerlund after the abuse the likes of Ronnie and Becks received at the hands of the little ingerlunders. I for one hope they fail miserably at every tournament and I REALLY mean that. It amused me no end when they got turned over by the Germans in SA. Fuck em’. I may change my mind when the likes of Tom, Danny, Jones and Smalling et al are the nucleus but till then couldn’t care less. The arrogance of the British media makes me sick. Hype them up and expect them to win the tournaments just because its Ingerlund when in fact they haven’t a fucking chance. Build them up then knock them down. Rooney the scapegoat last summer.
Cunts like Wilkins saying without Terry they haven’t a chance. Oh yeah Ray because the racist was in top form in South Africa last summer.
Best quoute of the day goes to the embittered Fergie hater and Wenger loving egghead cunt Pat Barclay. : “If Harry gets the job I honestly think he will take England all the way”. Yeah course he will Pat you cunt. You can’t make a silk purse out of a sows ear.
“We all agree…… United are better than England”.
United > Ingerlund.
King Eric
Hands down one of the most refreshing posters on RoM….. Never fail to lift my spirits and put a smile on my face pal!
Cedars – Wayne rooney the player obviously. I think rooney tweeted about his choice of manager and keane went in for him like a real bitter man. We all know wayne ain’t exactly innocent but banging on about it on an fa cup match between sunderland and boro?. So wayne can’t have an opinion now? i’m baffled.
Keane said Rooney should keep his nose out of it, as he didn’t do the business on the pitch for England. He’s allowed an opinion Keano!
I didn’t even know Capello was England manager……
Giggs12
Hahahaha
I can guarantee that Stuart the psychopathic pscycic Pearce will be manager. Rooney to be captain, Stevie G vice
Samuel. Why mate. What did Keane say about Wayne?
Iced earth. Alright pal. Yeah “warrior“ Puyol getting tapped on side of swede and goes to deck like he has been hit with a tyre Iron. Fucking fag. Armstrong as usual was masturbating all over Rob Palmer. Fuck off.
Why the fuck is Ballagaue piping up on Sky about Capello and Ingerlund? This man thinks he knows it all. Bore off and go bum your pal Rafa.
@James21 / Slim – no need for any self imposed exiles, I read that Captain joke and thought “oooh” myself but it didn’t stop me laughing. Funny is funny. Main thing is no offence was intended so lets leave it at that fellas. Personally I thought of this when I heard about Capello, hope it doesn’t offend anyone!
http://i.telegraph.co.uk/multimedia/archive/01386/up-disney_1386813c.jpg
Btw I like the way SAF came out and backed Capello’s “right” to an opinion without ‘actually’ backing Capello’s opinion. Can’t get fairer than that can you?
While im at it, the Ronaldo rumours will NOT go away. I never thought it would actually happen, but he really hasn’t looked happy in ages imo, and his attitude in that last match said it all – scored and pretty much told his home crowd to fuck off. Mourinho definitely won’t be there next season however La Liga ends up, and more and more I doubt Ronaldo will be either. Question is where will the Madeiran go? He’d better not return to England if he’s not coming back to United, thats all I know, couldn’t forgive him if he joined City or Chelsea that would be torture.
Anyway, it was good to see Young back at the weekend, he should rediscover his early form soon, and as we saw first hand in a United shirt, Young is a quality player. Nani back for Liverpool will be important, he’s only got one goal against them and im sure he’ll want to perform on such a huge occasion. We need the Win. Anybody know if Cleverley and Ando will make the Bench this time or what? Hopefully by Ajax next week we’ll have those two back and fit – we’ve been waiting half the season to see the same midfield we started so brilliantly with, but with Scholes back and bossing the midfield it won’t be easy for them. What a quality January signing!
A legend of a player no doubt but as a pundit Keane just seems to get more daft by the minute
King Eric
Silk purse out of a sows ear… Haha. Love it!
KKKenny should be England manager! He’d fit right in with Terry et al and the rest of the corrupt FA who constantly make shit up just like our racist jock dipper!
Daft, but true. England and Rooney have been poor. Simples!
Willie
Thought I would fish you out with that one!
What about Mike Basset? dark horse…
Capello to Madrid Mourinho to England?
Apologies now but I can’t resist:
Chelsea Manager Andre VillASH BoASH had meetings today with Russian oligarch and team owner Roman Abramovich. From unconfirmed reports we have learned that Mr. Abramovich was “unusually animated” and that Mr. VillASH- BoASH was “more animated than usual”. We can believe the part about the oligarch because he always appears half asleep but we are very skeptical that Mr. VillASH- BoASH has any capability of being even more spastic than normal.
Anyhow sources familiar with the exchange report spittle and invectives were flowing from the normally quiet Russian toward the Chelsea gaffer. Statements such as “You better fix this &*^%%% *(%^% or you’ll be gone faster than one of my exiled former partners” and “We lose a three-nil lead again and your ass is grass and I will the the $%$#@#^&* lawnmower !!” were overheard. Sources also report that Mr. VillASH- BoASH’ s face was one shade of red and his nose was another. On several occasions he attempted to speak only to be quieted by the threat of a back handed bitch slap from the agitated Russian.
Stay tuned as we bring you the latest developments from Chelsea’s Cobham training ground.
Willie
Fred Bassett?
Has he gone yet?
Good
Not actually pissed at slim to be fair I don’t give a shit what he thinks. Its just those who recently feel need to jump on posters for posting little tongue and cheek jokes or comments. You just can’t seam to have any fun anywhere these days without some self righteous P.C Pratt having a go. Anyway fuck em.
Cedars. You knew I wouldn’t leave you to have all the fun on here.
Paul
I saw it and thought nothing of it. If it was directly mocking the dead then I wouldn’t have posted it. I actually thought it was very quick to do the rounds as I’d not long heard he’d resigned.
No need to fish Cheddars! I’m hooking for you always!
All hail the Earl of Sandwich
James
And here’s me thinking your Internet was still fucked!
Redknapp is the flavour of the month now, he’ll soon sour. I give till the end of the euros.
Terry is a pathetic joke though, if any england manager had a backbone then his overrated self would have been dropped. For years carvalho has carried him at chelsea, always gives that impression of brave heart gladiator when really, beyond all that camouflage of idiotic stupidity, lies an incompetent cunt with no class.
At the world cup, like king eric said, he was yet again shown up for how crap he is. No pace, he always makes a last ditch tackle which clearly shows poor positional awareness. Yes he throws his body on the line but so can pie obsessed pub player.
All these fiasco show how downhill english is going. The media clearly run the whole thing, because once they disapprove of a manager, he gets the axe.
Capello was never given a chance, he was continuously mocked for having a poor english grammar but what is a man, with an italian upbringing meant to do? burst into a geordie accent?.
That man had a competent record as managers of football clubs before he took the england job, now he leaves on a sour note but with the state of english football, did anyone expect any less?.
As king eric again put it. Only the united young players can make most united fans interested in england but we all know it will end in yet another tearful drama. Rooney at least is banned for two games, so that’s him escaping the lambasting of the daily fail crew but united players will still be involved, we’ll watch as the whole thing gradually crumble yet again, But hey lets hail the new saviour of english football. ‘arry fucking redknapp.
That was quick James? Where’d you go, the toilet?
Monkey
Quite evasive is our Jimmy eh?
M19ke
It has been playing up mate. Cos I live in the sticks. Actually I’m between 2 towns and 2 massive U.S Air bases In Lakenheath and Mildenhall, probably those Yanks blocking me.

I nipped off for a better sense of humour.
The Devil’s deeds are done for the night, with a certain amount of success…..
Night all
King eric – keane was speaking on itv and he said because of wayne’s past wrong-doings (like keane is a saint), then he shouldn’t have an opinion. It was just a tweet for fuck sake. I sense some real bitterness from this man, you can see the anger when he speaks. I know he is straight forward and all that but i’m baffled, still admire everything he’s done while at united though.
haha samuel – pie obsessed pub player!! love it!!
@ Samuel
Keane …..angry…..well of course. That is what he knows and it has been been used to good effect up to now. I suspect it will be years , if ever, that he lets any bitterness and anger leave him. It has fueled him for much too long and is like a drink to a drunk who is addicted.
scores vital goals and always one for the big games, but so far it’s not really his season.
will never forget how how he took pirlo out of the game and scored the 3rd or 4th goal for us at OT.
Was one of his best games.
Imagine if we got Ronaldo back…
Fuck playing him on the wing – him and Rooney up top. We’d be unstoppable
Give me Keane as a pundit over the likes of Shearer and co. Mundane cunts!
James21 – “Its just those who recently feel need to jump on posters for posting little tongue and cheek jokes or comments.”
I’ve experienced this first hand recently. There really are some precious folk on here.
Cedars and MikeKelly … thanks lads. A 12.45 start means the match should be well finished by 3pm, which is my cut-off time when the sports bar closes (1am here). So Mike will have a liquid brekfast, I’ll be having a liquid night (and I know which I prefer!). Cheers!

Sorry to piss people off about Ingurland but I find it to be the newsof the week after Arry walking freely after steal money from his own country.
Can you imagine Arry’s teamsheet for ingurand.

Bent won;t start
Jagielka is too hard to spell.
Gerrard on the bench for nephew lampard.
John Lennon to start over Teddy Wallcott.
I’ve got an idea – TONY MOWBRAY FOR ENGLAND!!!
@James21 – like I said mate it made me laugh. Your right about the speed these jokes are penned with, especially regarding football. Its all about the banter.
@King Eric – hahaha, classic rant mate. Quite a few “stars” were left behind for the WC but Ingerlund would rather chop off their own hand then drop the usual suspects. Oh, but they’ll drop a player like Scholes no problem! Ask me the three lions need a German approach – start from scratch – you’d think England were reliant on the old guard, Ha, as if they’ve ever won fuck all at International Level.
@Samuel – true, Capello was a top Club manager on the Continent but he’s been nothing short of shite since he came to England mate. Its not even about the results for me, or his nationality, its the performances mate. England always play like a bunch of sorry cunts – (theres no other phrase to aptly describe it) – and thats even when they DO manage a win over mighty Lithuania or whoever. Sorry but Capellos done fuck all to improve the squad during his time and if anything he’s still reliant on players identified by Sven a decade ago ffs! Wheres the youth he said he’d bring through? He came here saying he’d change everything, I even believed him, but when you look at what he’s leaving in place its laughable – we’ve got “not so young any more” players with no International experience, and older players who think they ARE the England manager. Nah, decent continental manager and all that but he’s got no one to blame but himself for a shit tenure. Ask me England are better off without him, and I doubt much of the squad are missing sleep over his departure. I certainly ain’t – he’s looked out of his depth since arriving. Only downside imo is having to put up with the “Arry for Ingerlund” press we’re about to be bombarded with…. Just as well we’ve got Liverpool Ajax and Spurs coming up!
Laters RoM
i hava a ji shirt. a park shirt & a sung shirt. i also have a ji sung shirt and a ji sung park shirt.
Paul parker – It’s fair to say capello hasn’t covered himself with a blaze of glory whilst managing england but how many people have mate?.
England’s managerial job is an impossible one in my view. Run by the pathetic FA and then add the unrealistic expectations of fans who can’t seem to grasp the idea that the country possesses mostly average players with a few great ones who have been battered psychologically by the media and fans (rooney for example, build them up and knock them down and all that).
I personally felt fabio was never in full control. He wasn’t given full authority to get rid some of the garbage in that squad, E.g john terry and all.
Drafting in youngsters or not, i don’t think even the tooth fairy could transform the rotten england set up.
I can’t see england bringing anyone in That would significantly improve them further than the likes of spain. I think capello had enough of the bullshit drama so he packed it in. Superman harry will take on the mantle, let’s see how many buddies he has in his beloved media when everything messes up.
All i’m saying is, capello may have his faults but the problems of english football lies deeper and it certainly will rumble on.
Paul , Cedars etc. Cheers lads.
Samuel. Roy Keane is a very bitter man but I will probably get dogs for pointing this out. Like you say he is a right one to talk especially after USA 94. That’s why for me Robbo wins my favourite captain all day long. Yes Keane is entitled to his opinion but like I say seems very bitter towards United. Regards Ingerlund job a lot of folk desperate for Pearce. Yes Stuart fucking Pearce. Why? Because he is passionate. Once again the good old British passion is all it takes. Fuck me. Even heard calls for the frankly laughable Southgate. Is there any wonder Ingerlund are shit. What’s more shocking is the views of the little englanders. Ignorance is bliss. Thick cunts.
Samuel. Loved your comment about folk expecting Capello to speak geordie! Quality. As I say thick cunts mate.
Anyway why the fuck is Beetroot cunt lauded as Fergie,shanks,sir matt etc all rolled into one? He has won the gigantic trophy haul of ONE FA cup in his entire managerial career. A cup they shouldn’t have won had not United not got shafted. All of a sudden is a managerial genius. Gotta laugh else you would cry.
Listening to phone ins and so on I just cannot believe how much some people “love England” and are proper distraught about the situation. I feel fuck all but apathy towards them. Especially like I say the hypocritical treatment Becks got. The abuse Ronnie got. Cunts like Terry, Stevie Me, cole and cunts like that donning the shirt. Stand up if you hate Man U chants. Scholes played out of position for mugs like lampard. Clowns like Milner playing. Barry yet no Carrick. A fucking shambles. Ha. Latest call Neil Warnock. Pardew on list of candidates. You couldn’t make this shit up.
Morning Reds,
Capello gone
not that it makes any difference to England side 
Cant believe how FA has screwed up yet again before a major tournament
this FA is in utter shitty mess
I love Park the consumate pro,i’d be interested how much money he has made Utd,i do alot of business with South Koreans,Utd are the most popular side and Park is a rock star hard to believe with his humble attitude.Talk about having a love for Utd,wanted to play for the club from a young age and accepts his role with no complaints
Best 4mill Utd ever spent
Ji Sung Park – amazing player on his day, and is a synergiser. Not one of those who can lift the team single-handedly on a consistent basis, but definitely a player whom I’d hate to see in any other team playing against United.
Someone get the FA to pay SAF for a one-off session in consultation, let him name the English squad, and have someone else take the team in the summer. The stand-in manager probably doesn’t have to do much at all.
Just met Guus Hiddink in the pub and I have to say, after he told me his plans in going for the England job, Redknapp has no chance.
He said he’s going to apply in writing.
Morning ROM!!
Robbie Keane has just announced his childhood dream was to manage England
Emile Heskey has missed the opportunity to be the new England manager.
SKY SPORTS NEWS:New England Manager to be announced..they are trying to keep it a secret but a CV was received under the name of “Rosie 47″ tonight.
The Tottenham owner has agreed to let Harry Redknapp take the England job if he can manage to write his own resignation letter.
@Rohan: The ghost of Shankly has also been spotted at Heathrow, with his CV under his arm. Sadly, all attempts to photograph him came to nought.
Good morning to you, and fellow RoM-ers! Let’s start another mad, merry day!
Harry Redknapp has ruled himself out of the England job saying it was ‘Too taxing.’
Fabio Capello: out the door quicker than John Terry when he hears a husbands car coming up the driveway.
cheers jeet. see y’all later.
Why the fuck is capello scum dominating parks awesome thread.
You just got to love Park, his commitment to the team is fabulous, and he scores important goals as well in the big games
Crapello out, so england may end up winners of euro 2012 in the end
I just lost a lot of respect for Capello. If he had shown his principles for any other player, that’s fine. However he shits in the faces of United players and treats England’s best centreback with disdain and dishonorably strips him of captaincy. Then he goes all fucking principled on somebody who’s parents have the lowest class of citizens in Britain, who cheated on his team mate and buddy with his wife, who is now a proven racist by everybody. All this innocent until proven guilt is just nonsense. Capello has been losing the plot for sometime now and this just demonstrates that he has lost it finally. The way United players have been treated by all England managers is just horrific and Capello is just the latest example. Though I am glad to see his back, I know the next person isn’t going to be any better. But at least Capello’s true colors are being revealed now; some would say the revelations have been going on for the past year or so.
Goodbye Capello!
On the other hand, I fucking love Ji Sung Park. As Cedars would say, tactically the most brilliant player in this United team.
It will be interesting to see Harry Redknapp manage England. It will be entertaining to say the least. Wonder whom he is gonna tap up if he becomes the manager of England.
As for Park, he has definitely done more than just sell shirts. He is a BIG game player. He might not be technically brilliant but he is definitely one of the most smartest players in the team.
@King Eric
Spot on your last post about the Ingerland- anti UTD brigade ,I remember watching an international at my local in the mid 90′s and the abuse our boys were getting not only in the stands but in the pub was Fucking sickening . Some cunt in the pub shouted “don’t give it to the ginger cunt” when Scholes got the ball and all in the pub laughing . I never really supported England before that but after ???? I just went right off em. Don’t get me wrong I like to see the Utd lads do well but over the years I’ve noticed its those same lads that get made into scapegoats .
Now with Fabio its not his fault he’s got a mediocre set of players , you can’t polish a turd can ya??
Fuck em Fuck em all I say …..Everyone harping on about Harry Redknapp? …yeah hes a semi decent manager renound for his wheeling dealing but the last time I checked you can’t actually buy players for Ingerland and his best players (world class) at Spurs VDV,Modric sorry they’re not elligible so let the press have their say and bang on about England when the truth of the matter is that they’re just not good enough..
Like Samuel said, if England want to do well on the international scene then they need to start from scratch. First off, get someone who can shake things up and who is not afraid of dropping the “star” players. England, realistically do not stand any chance at the Euro’s so they might as well start building for the future.
I’ll side with willie regarding Keane. I’ve critisized him in the past for his bitter opinions, but I didn’t see anything wrong with his comment yesterday. It’s not a mystery that Rooney is among those players that have underperformed for England. His main focus should be replicating his United form with England. And not suggesting X or Y as the next England manager. That’s not the player’ job imo.
England had no chance of doing anything in the Euros with Fabio’s squad. It was going to be worse than South Africa. This turn of events has given England a chance to at least benefit from the competition. Give the Manager job to a good manager who has to build a new team for the future of England. Allow him absolute control and less bullshitting from the FA. Let the manager pick a team of hungry lads and get rid of the dead wood that Capello is resigning over.
It is better if a team with likes of Welbeck, TC, Sturridge, Jones, Smalling, Walters, Rodwell, Wilshire failed to get to the later stages coz it would be a learning experience and will enable the young lads to start geling at this early stages. Pointles to take the likes of Rio, Terry, Lampard, Stevie, Barry, Milner if the probability is that you cant make it out of the group.

Hello,
Rohan, funny as fuck with next England manager posts
Costas,
yeah i have to agree with you on Rooney..its better if he doesnt say anything..
Twitter has been creating too many problems for him..
Having said that, Rooney is still the best England player currently and lets accept that no UNITED player will perform the same for England for few reasons such as
A. There is only one Sir Alex.
B. The kind of game we play and the kind of midfielders we have had over the years, that kind of set up is impossible at England, for one reason or other.
C. England doesnt have a Valencia
.
D. English midfielders are talented, skilled but the the English midfield set up fails to shine or click for one or the other reason.
E. Rooney is world class but he cant hit the peak on his own with England.
F. Enough of this shit, let me concentrate on UNITED
.

Berba likely to return to Bulgarian national team..
and by far, Berba’s contribution to cuntry has been statistically better than for clubs, be it us, Spuds or Leverkusen.
It will be good if he played selected games for the country..but it all depends on where he will be coming summer..
Good day to you and ROM.
@ LordRT,
Hello Pal,
Fuck that cunt kenny, one day he says provoking and the other day peace..
garbage
Sandeep1878 – I hope we reply to all their provocations/antics on the field instead, by playing quality football and winning against them. However I’ll be weary of that suarez git if I was Evra, he’ll try everything possible I think to get Evra in trouble on that day, handshake or not…
Fred @23:52
Yes mate I saw. Yours amongst others who have had the same response by posting tongue and cheek jokes was part of my point and decision.
Blame Cedars, he got me to do a U turn, said he’d come over here and make me sit in South stand if I didn’t start posting again.
Laters.
@Singh7
That doesnt only happen with Utd players playing for England only, even in countries miles away from England if you watch Manchester Utd in a pub (like stateside has to do this weekend at 1:00AM) its always Man Utd vs The rest, seems very hard for these haters to appreciate anything good from Utd. Its a GOOD thing we win more often than not and get to throw it in their faces. Like this weekend, it was magical but would have been orgasmic if we had won.
I think there is more to Cappello’s resignation than ”John Terry”! Englands performance in South Africa for a 6M per year purse ??????? I think both parties were itching for an excuse!
Word on the street is Cats are suddenly showing up in places where there is no chance of winning the league starting from the Black cat that tore down the League during the Saturday Barca game, to Liverpool’s Kenny. And they were both running towards the home side’s goal. What are the odds we’ll see a cat biting Joe Hart at the Etihad
Costas
Hi mate, yes I agree on Rooney….. Players should not make their opinions public about a vacant managerial position. One of the many reasons I hate CLLC is because he has always done it with Chelsea. I do not mind players voicing their support after the announcement has been made.
Regarding Saturday’s game and whilst I would take any win however I would much rather a dramatic win then a comfortable one…. A vintage extra time United winner as an example. For me such a win would cause the dippers more pain and heartache, furthermore the celebrations that usually follow such a win are savory.
Anyway I am just imagining my own personal scenario and as I said I would take any win.
Come ON UNITED
@Cedars: If I really start getting dramatically sadistic, here’s the script:
1. Kyut fires them into the lead. 5 fingers and all.
2. Spurred on by 70,000 Reds, we start putting them to the sword. KKKunt takes off the 35m donkey and puts in an extra defender at halftime. Rooney hits the bar in the 60th, and we start wondering if it’s one of THOSE days.
3. 85th minute, toothycunt finally cracks and is caught pulling Rafael’s hair. All hell breaks loose as he is sent off. Play stopped for a minute.
4. 5 minutes injury time announced
5. 92nd minute – Scholesy screamer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Play held up again because the world has just gone mad.
5. 96th minute, with KKKunt furiously gesticulating at his watch, Stevieme attempts a cute backpass to Cunt Carragher, who slips. Guess who should pounce on it but our Babyfaced Assassin 2.0. The rest as they say is history. Ref is mobbed. Fergie time reigns supreme. Toothycunt is left consoling stevieme in the center circle, as KKKunt offers his leper’s cock as a dummy to hush them. Rats all over the world rejoice.
BLISS, though I doubt my heart would survive it
Jokes aside, and not to tempt fate with any hubris, may the footballing Gods be with us this weekend. Its Good vs Evil, and may The Babes guide our step at OT. Amen.
The ecstasy that comes with a dramatic win is priceless. But for liverpool this time around I would like a win that shows the difference in class between the two clubs, the two managers and the two sets of players. An Arsenal 8-2 kind of result and I’ll be happy for the rest of the season. I wont say liverpool has never been this bad but I believe right now they are very ordinary and this is the time to really stick it up their a****s. Thats why Dogleash is trying to shift focus to the Suarez row, he can see that they will need more that football tactics to beat or avoid a thrashing on Saturday. But I too will savour any win!
Missing a bobbycharlie1968 rant ahead of this weekend:)
Bobby Charlton
” I can’t wait for Saturday’s game but I am pretty gutted that I won’t be at Old Trafford. I’m heading off on holiday tomorrow but have already checked with the hotel that the game will be shown live. And the even better news is we have MUTV in our villa! I feel really confident about the game – 3-1 to United is my prediction. (GT)”
3-1 it is then!
Jeet
Bloody hell pal, you really made me live through it with that post of yours. Read it twice and it seriously made me feel as if I was watching the real thing!
Come ON UNITED
@Mike
You are not alone in the liquid breakfast! Looking forward to the liquid breakfast on saturday and my wife’s dissaproving look!
bayoRed
You have a point! However the difference in class on all fronts has been evident since both clubs were created, no more so than the last 20 years or so…..
I am not getting ahead of my self or being cocky in anyway but I can only see a home win, no matter how it comes I do not care
Agree completely
”A win is a win” hell, I will even take a ”dubious” penalty!
@Cedars: Not too put too fine a point on modesty, I have to admit I felt the same way, hahaha!! honestly don’t think I’ll survive that
Cheers, my friend!
A dog called Rosie has just put £189,000 on Arry Redknapp becoming the next England manager.
Any team news on the rescheduled reserves match? TC, Ando???
James
Hahaha…. And too right I would have hunted you down and had you sitting at the South Stand!
Jeet
I have always maintained that United will eventually lead to my death, lovingly so may I add!
I don’t see a problem with what Keane said about Rooney because it was true. To me Rooney seems two face with his comment regarding Capello leaving. Players are there to play football not say who they want as manager. Wilshere and Kyle Walker showed gratitude, what if Harry doesn’t get the position will Rooney throw a strop because it’s not who he wants. Plus he should be careful what he wishes for, how many times has Harry talked up a player and then hardly played them Keane, Defoe, Bent and Crouch.
Good day Reds!
Tom Cleverley was in line to make his return from injury today in a behind-closed-doors match with City. He was pencilled in to play for the reserves against Chelsea on Monday, only for the game to be postponed due to bad weather. United reserves were set to face City’s Elite Development Squad in the Manchester Senior Cup at Altrincham tonight, but now the game has been switched to Carrington at 1pm today. MUTV are showing it live.
Yes rooney may have not lived up to expectations for england but who has? when did football become a one man game?.
We know wayne’s previous wrongdoings, do i really need keane to emphasise that for me because wayne shared an opinion?. What a load of bullshit this world has come to when a man can’t express opinion anymore.
I’m sure he’s fully focused on united so i don’t get how a tweet from his iphone would suddenly affect him. put aside all united heroics, Keane is a just bitter man and ITV have signed up the perfect puppet to unnecessarily batter united.
I don’t even get why miss piggy aka adrian chiles who has as much footballing knowledge as a drugged up turkey picked wayne on purpose, rooney wasn’t exactly the one tweeting about the england job.
ps Freddie Veseli is cup-tied for the clash.
The FA have said that the next England manager would be hired on their terms…. Seriously? dah
What a bunch of inept fools….
Out for my walk and then some Thai food…….
Catch you later you frigging beauties
Who gives a damn about who gets the job, england will ultimately still be Shit at international football. They may have a couple of quality players but the team is mostly full of average players the fans relate to because they run around and put in a “Shift”.
Arry will be picking his favourites now, so expect lampard and terry to lead the team to yet another glory of failure, rooney will be battered, every bitter rival fan will say united players are to blame, the romance will wear off. Redknapp will return to illegal fishing in bournemouth for “Therapy”, terry will get in bed with his team mate’s wife because he had a “Bad day”, The fa will go back to wanting a manager from over-seas, he’ll be forced to make gareth “A HGV truck can turn and run faster than me” Barry captain, crouch will still keep dreaming about trying to be van basten and being an england legend instead of realising that he should be feeding apples to giraffes in a zoo, England fans will get on talksports weeping to adrian durham and his ballet dancing side-kick goughy and so on. It’s a never ending circle and until england fans lower their expectations to that of the faroe islands, they’ll keep weeping after every debacle. Spending 800 million on a stadium won’t guarantee success and neither will arrogance, money can’t buy talents either so the drama rumbles on.
Morning All.
Looks like i’ve missed all the fun yesterday/ this morning, some funny posts, Jeet ,sandeep , james and others!
Smartalex, hi, thanks for the info re the game against the bitters today.
Anyone got any links?
King Eric, can’t believe Pearce is being touted as manager for Ingurland again. as you said, the media reckon he’s passionate.
Yeah, passionate but talentless.
And one cup “Arry, dear oh dear.
MG, this is surely your moment, is it not time to do a Ginger Ninja and come out of retirement?
My Lord Cedars and Earl James, morning!
Less of the jokes about the South stand please, it’s full of…..er…..well…..if the cameras home in on the lone bloke trying to cajole the Sloth Stand into a few verses of “In your liverpool slums”, that’ll be me just before they eject me!
It’s in my blood – good morning mate! Links should start coming through shortly.
As far as the Euro’s are concerned, and beyond; the right appointment is Gary Neville.
He will chose his own team, with a good blend of youth and mid-to-late-20′s players, with only a couple of over 30 stalwarts. He will prepare them thoroughly and motivate them well. They will all respect him and trust him. They will perform well, and will all come through with some credit and their confidence intact. After the Euro’s he should stand down. Then the FA must appoint a long-term English (or Scottish?) manager.
a typically well-researched, balanced, in depth look at De Gea and LindeGaard. With Stats and everything. And a very good conclusion i must say.
http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1058358-de-gea-vs-lindegaard-who-deserves-manchester-uniteds-goalkeeper-jersey
Don’t see what the big deal is Capello has been collecting 6mill a year and has done fuck all,does anyone think England are better now than they were when he took over,are they fuck.Hope the new manager has the balls to leave JT out the poisionous cunt.
Lets not forget Italians have a history of quitting anyone remember the second world war,fucking quit by the thousands then as well,my dad was station in Italy said they didn’t want to know
Give the job to Moyes
BREAKING NEWS ….
Harry Redknapp has been told this morning that he can leave Tottenham for the England job.
The only condition being that he must write his own resignation letter …..
The thing is, I’m beginning to wonder, much like the chelsea gaffer’s job, who in their right minds would want to take the england job? It’s a poisoned chalice, and it would take a man with extraordinary vision, committment and courage to do a long term cleanup job. Almost somebody like Fergie? And mind you, Bernstein is no Busby, and if you aint got the long term backing of the FA, you might as well forget it. So, I guess, by default, it will fall to some egotistic chancer, or someone who has taken the 3 lions jingoism a bit too seriously for his own good.
None of my business frankly; internationally, I support Brazil and Netherlands. It’s becoming more and more difficult to support Brazil though, what with cunts like dani alves. And ohh, I forget dejong. Might as well start supporting Mexico for Chicha, or one of the African nations. Really dont care, but I do enjoy a good circus once in a while.
Has ‘arry ever won fuck all i know he’s overspent at most clubs without achieving anything,another overrated cunt who wouldn’t win fuck all as England manager.
Honestly don’t get the fuss,he spent a small fortune and taken Spurs to 3rd big fucking deal
Jeet,
Hi, i think it was FletchTHEMAN who reminded us of reasons to support Zambia?
Food for thought perhaps, but Brucie maybe for Ingurland?
Not that i really give two hoots incidentally!
Stuart pearce is nw the manager, I told you all last night.
Now will Rooney or Hart be captain?
Don King has threw his hair into the ring for England job.
Am just wondering what makes Harry frontrunner for this job. If the only qualification required is to be English then David Beckham must be thrown into the hat as well. Otherwise his c.v does not cut it for what is supposed to be one of the top jobs in international football.
Luis Suarez would consider the England job, if all Black players retire from international football.
King Kenny would be interested in the job, as long as he could pick Luis Suarez.
Also makes me laugh when the pundits talk about pressure,yeah tough fucking gig watching football every week,best seats,private jet get treated like a king and get paid millions.
Fucking laughable,pressure is a single mother with a deadbeat dad working 2 jobs just to survive
Bon King Boris Becker has thrown his racket in.
John McEnroe has thrown a tantrum in.
Chalk dust!
Pete Doherty has threw his bag of skag in the ring too! But the FA have ruled out the silly hat he wears!
Fuck me, clueless but passionate Pearce has got the Inguland job.
wayne – Hello mate. Spot on. He has won ONE FA cup in his entire 40 year or so managerial career. That should’nt have been either if United hadnt been shafted with the blatant pen that was given on Ronnie.
Its in my blood – Hep up fella. Pearce? Ha. fuck me. The media will love him and the fans because he is PASSIONATE. Talentless but passionate. Fucking clowns. Pearce the man who played Cleverley on the left wing or on the bench in the under 21 tournament to accomodate Herman Munster Henderson who was fucking dogshit.
@Smartalex – cheers for the Cleverley post mate, good to know he’s nearly ready to return. Any word on Anderson? The manager said the Europa is a challenge he’s up for so who knows how he’ll shuffle the squad for Ajax?
@Samuel – good points mate, and your right, even tho Capello hasn’t covered himself in glory the problems of the national team are much deeper than him alone. Indeed, its usually the FA and the Press who fuck things up. Obviously I doubt Arry will win anything, in fact the very IDEA of England winning anything is stupid at this present time, but I do think he’ll get better performances out of this current squad. That can’t be too hard considering the woeful stuff England played under Capello!
Just like at Club level, the England set up should be more concerned with getting regular Performances imo. and not put the cart before the horse. People expect England to progress in tournaments but they can’t even put in a decent shift for 90 minutes, and thats the problem. Players have a blinder at the weekend at Club level then turn out for England playing like its a death sentence over them. No top flight manager would tolerate the half-arsed way England play, not when you add up the transfer value of the players at England disposal, and their experience. Whoever they appoint for the Euros I doubt very much the national team will be any worse than they are now, and Capello is responsible for that, long before he changed his tune with the FA. He’ll probably go back to Madrid when Mourinho leaves.
Paul Parker
physioroom.com shows Ando’s expected return as ‘unknown’
Also listed as ‘unknown’ are Smalling, Bebe and Fletcher.
If all 4 were named in the starting line-up against Liverpool, we would discuss formations until the game started. There would be the occasional ‘didn’t know he was fit/back’ interjected. Our Gaffer’s cards remain tight-chested until the Ref wheezes to start the game.
Maybe the ref needs a remedy, then?
Something to bury his cough in?
Need to give him the cold shoulder though.
@ Redhound
Thanks for the link. It’s quite reassuring that the author’s conclusion matches exactly what SAF is doing. this Fergie guy seems to know what he is about.
