Christ, hal on another one of his teary / shouty outbursts.

Peel me a fkin onion, somebody.

Maguire is a twat. He should have moved to West Ham where he would have got a big salary and a decent pay off from Man U too. But, the greedy fuker wanted a full pay off from Man U and a ridiculously high salary.

Now, some folks may say that's his entitled to his Man U contract running down to the end. Well so be it. But, then don't complain when: 1) fans call him out for being the useless player he is; Man U don't play him because he's a liability; when his contract does run out, I hope he gets paid (weekly salary) for his level of play at Man U - which will be about half, or even a third, or what he currently gets.

Man U accepting 30 million from West Ham and paying off most of his contract (they may even have been partially supporting his wages? Not sure...) is decent by them - they want rid of the useless fuk. But, Maguire was more interested in getting every penny because he's an entitled twat. Fuk him. He's an average player and deserves all the stick he gets. I do not give a fuk about his emotions because it was in his own hands to move to West Ham, a good club thatwould suit his playing style, and rebuild his career. Maguire is a wanker...

The blame is also on the useless foks that vetoed his transfer, transfer fee and contract.

Then did the same with Sancho.

Then did the same with Antony.


Did I mention they spent 1/4 of a BILLION on the 3 stooges?


Not to mention the Freds that went before.

He wanted a transfer but he didn't want a pay cut.

He'd rather remain the object of ridicule at a ridiculous club who were too stingy to get rid of him.

Oh come on sybs, it's all mounting up for him.

You have the two wife beaters, the paedo they welcomed to a ladies match and an out-of-form loser who's happy to spend the rest of his time doing nothing for 200k a week.

It's a lot to swallow even for Hal.

[dirk diggler]

If you gave me 200k a week to do nothing I would happily give you 95% of it.

[hallelujah]

Bring it all on, fokkers.

Well I offered my services to Saudi Arabia for 10m a year, a massive 70m discount on Neymar's deal, but I never even got a reply to the email.

Shocking, but I'm sure they'd be made to feel more than welcome at Arsenal.

I tried to hire Bon Jovi once, but his agent was so awestruck to be contacted by an outfit as big as 'The Hot Bread Shop' that he wouldn't take me seriously.

[cyrille]

^^A sign of just how super duper the clubs are blah blah blah.

[Edmond]

1 B Team and 2 C Team players, which are the youth teams, so probably teenagers and possibly underage teenagers themselves. Not exactly the modern equivalent of Raul, Ronaldo and Roberto Carlos.

Ah, FINALLY Hal understands what 'consensual sex' means.

Although the leaking of the incriminating media seems to be a lesson they never learned from that Greenwood chap.

[harrybarracuda]

That will a collectible.

FC Barcelona will wear a football shirt emblazoned with The Rolling Stones’ iconic Tongue and Lips logo for their upcoming El Clásico match against fierce rivals Real Madrid.
Spanish news channel Esports RAC1 broke the exclusive news this week that Barcelona will play with their one-off Rolling Stones shirt when the game takes place on either Saturday 28th or Sunday 29th October 2023.

Man up.

Aberdeen fans launched them into Frankfurt's home stand last week and that wasn't abandoned.

I'm all for pyrotechnics but no throwing, and not flares.

Actually if it's what they do when their team are shit, it's probably why he left.

[hallelujah]

He left Ajax to join the greatest club in the world, Manchester United, after guiding them to the league in 2022.

Only defeat in the cup final against PSV prevented him from winning his 3rd consecutive league and cup double in the 5 seasons he spent there (another - 4th - league title was null and voided due to Covid).

You clueless plonker, harry.

[harrybarracuda]

Yeah, sure thing Hal.

I was at this game



We went on the overnight ferry from Hull to Rotterdam and the rest is history as we traversed through Southern Europe on our merry way.

Or we nearly were.

Roughest place I've ever seen United (most others would say Feyenoord I reckon) and the lads put us on one of the flights back to Manc cos there were some seats spare after the game.

The birds were fucking mint, but the memory of some fella coming up to you when you're having a pint and saying "I will kill you" isn't something you want to stay around for.

Do you prefer the red ring?

That's shallot

Oops. Not sure if he'll have much of a career left coming back at 34 after that layoff.

Paul Pogba has tested positive in counter-analysis on a second sample following his anti-doping offence.
The former Manchester United midfielder was provisionally suspended on September 11 this year due to an anti-doping offence.
The France international tested positive for testosterone - a hormone that increases athletes' endurance - in a random drugs test following Juventus' Serie A game against Udinese on August 20, when he was an unused substitute.
After the results of a counter-analysis came back as positive, Pogba risks a suspension of up to four years.

Why would he need that, he never worked up a sweat

Ol' Belly scores 2 to make it 10 goals from 10 games for Real.


Will World-class Southy be skilled enough to get the best from him in the Euros?

[Reg Dingle]

^Maybe if the Euros has a team full of Spanish or Irish farmers in the final
