  1. Tampa Bay Rowdies is so funny man, Yanks are never getting taken seriously at this sport until they start referring to clubs as collective nouns and pack in promoting players like Christian Pulisic via CSI Miami
  2. After these pair did Florist Arms which was great, proper old corner job with cask better kept than the previous pair and with friendlier staff too. Then went to the Camel virtually next door which I had high hopes for, beautiful tiled pub in the Good Beer Guide on the strength of its cask — returned a 5 Points Best and then got through a Sambrooks Wandle out of politeness. I'd give it another bash but the beer had that horrible clagginess. Did the Dundee Arms on Cambridge Heath Road that felt like a Scream bar and did a job for Guinness in the heat, a pure 5/10, now in the Approach Tavern and this is the one. Harvey's Best in perfect nick, an old pub brought back to life (by a great group that have a few) in a sympathetic way, everything is the colour I look for in a pub, not a grey or slate in sight.
  3. I really don't want Potter now. Make your relegation threatened Brentford bed and lie in it you merino turtle neck tit
  4. Yes, you're missing the fact he's crap
  5. One more steering wheel, carrier pigeon or fax machine joke and people are dredging a canal trying to find my remains I swear
  6. That Barcelona kit is phenomenal in the official photos
  7. Graham Potter acting like the contracted WCW stars who didn't want to get involved in the original Invasion angle. Bloke thinks he's Big Sexy Kevin Nash doesn't he
  8. We need a proper nutter man
  9. Nick Semeraro has had his wicked way with us and now he doesn't want to know
  10. Having a few in Bethnal Green today — started with the Kings Arms and now in the Bethnal Green Tavern, both Earl of Essex sister pubs and both Susan Perb, would recommend to patrons of the thread
  11. Absolutely not Painfully average
  12. The BC Game logo is also different to the one on the home shirts.
  13. Pretty much where I stand on it, too – anything around £10m and I think it'd be a quietly steady piece of business. North of that and it's a no thanks, I see he's been linked elsewhere for £20m+ which should be a complete no go for us.
  14. Yeah, I thought it was a bit weird we signed him to be a full back when he's very obviously a centre half. Great eye for a pass on him and definitely a really classy player in there, he'll do well.
  15. This bloke is absolutely not remotely legit as a source
  16. 4 of the letter E in his surname. An opportunity we can't pass up
  17. I'll happily mention the 2014 group contained Uruguay and Italy. That doesn't excuse finishing bottom of the pile, we were crap against both and never really in that tournament at all, it was as underwhelming as everything the decade before had produced. The most exciting it got was that shot Sterling had against the Italians that everyone thought had gone in. Your argument also glosses over 2016 which was a national embarrassment. Roy couldn't go out to the 'first half decent side' we faced because he'd already got us dumped out by some minnows. Again I'm not some kind of staunch Southgate apologist, I'm broadly pleased he's gone but he was so, so, so much better than Hodgson for us.
  18. In double the time, though? I don't even think it's as black and white as win % – Hodgson was garbage at tournaments. Gets a pass for 2012 given he came in late, but contrived to finish bottom of a World Cup group featuring Costa Rica and then lost to Iceland in 2016. He was hideous. I'm not particularly pro or anti Southgate but to suggest he didn't substantially improve the state of the national team after Roy (and Allardyce) is just a bit daft.
  19. Our club does NOT tolerate racism and condemns it in all possible forms. However, we are disappointed at the Wolves' squad reactions when one of our players acted in a racist manner. Let that be the end of it. All the best, Mirwan Suwarso
  20. This guy looks completely different in every photo I've seen of him
  21. Hope he's as good as the last Argentinian we had!
  22. Right time, this tournament was awful, borderline maddening – but he's gone further than any manager bar Alf Ramsay and because of the conservative (often dull) football I don't really think he'll ever really get the credit for it. I know people will fall back on the "easy draw" rhetoric, but he's given me infinitely more joy and hope as an England fan than Hoddle, Keegan, Sven, Capello or Hodgson ever did. That Colombia penalty shoot-out in 2018 was the most I'd given a shit about England in ****ing ages.
