    With all due respect, mate, you just need to relax more when you're posting. I was the same as you, heart on the sleeve and all that, and I was too eager to correct people which let to more confrontations. It's a fine balance here, between banter and meltdown, as I've discovered. Don't take it...

    I hate it when people get my goat, and then say more things to get more goats...you starting, or what?

    Peter Ramage

    Nope, not at all, but he can only sign players he thinks are adequate for the budget he has available. Shall we go and splash out on a Championship defender, or bring in more short-term loans to paper over the cracks? So, pardon my bluntness, pull your head out of your arse and try not to think...

    I'd prefer TM's appraisal of a player, over yours. If he's that fucking awful, I'm sure TM will send him packing. If he offers him a deal...well, you work it out.

    James Maddison - 'The Prince'

    Me too, but I was trying to be dramatic. :D

    Beckham

    He's not obviously a decent bloke, at all. That's the beauty of PR and marketing. They make you see a mirage, a glittery effigy of someone you would want to idolise. Then they make you want to buy all of his products, while he grins winsomely at a charity event. Personally, I can't stand him...

    Dross? Based on what facts? Football Manager? He's a versatile, reliable, experienced defender. If we can get better than that, at this level, please suggest someone.

    Peter Ramage

    Would be an excellent signing, he's a solid, no-nonsense defender who has plenty of experience. The experience factor is probably what TM has been drawn to, plus he's reliable.

    James Maddison - 'The Prince'

    Well, some people are easily moved to sarcasm when someone makes an innocent post, aren't they? I think it's an apt nickname myself; the last two games have been a firm indication of Madders' intent and talent, I mean he was in excellent form prior to his injury, but now he's back with a point...

    Film Thread 2015

    Yeah, I thought that too. Nothing spectacular, just a solidly entertaining film. Dave Bautista looked ready to pop in every scene though, even when he was calm.

    Would you take Elliott ward ?

    TM could make it possible, if the deal and conditions are right. And of course, if Ward is on his radar. Personally, I think he'd fit seamlessly into the back four - he's tall, mobile, athletic, intelligent and vocal. Ideal scenario would be a 6 month loan, imo.

    RIP Pavel Srnicek

    Bloody hell, he had a major heart attack whilst out jogging, had to be induced into a coma at the hospital. Then his machines were switched off because he had severe, irrevocable brain damage from oxygen starvation. Horrible. RIP Pavel.

    Would you take Elliott ward ?

    Was waiting for that...ye Gods, please no. Anyway, as far as Ward goes, I'd have him back in a heartbeat. Real classy centre-half: mobile, agile, brilliant in the air, robust but not overly big. Personally, I think he'd jump at the chance to work under TM here; he's not likely to make...

    Quality of officiating

    This epitomises my feeling on the subject of officiating too, mate. It seems the 3rd tier is getting the absolute dregs at the moment, truly awful officials.

    Ryan Kent

    Exactly this; it's hard to be patient with the lad, but I'm sure one day he'll be a 'Diet Cristiano Ronaldo' - he has bags of talent and potential, however we probably won't see the best of him. We've seen microcosms of what he can do, but overall, he's not what we need. I'm sure many teams...

    RIP Lemmy

    "That's the way I like it, baby, I don't wanna live forever" RIP Lemmy, time for me to crack out the Motorhead CD's.

    Twitter & Spying Permissions

    https://www.rt.com/uk/327336-twitter-investigatory-powers-spies/ Very crafty. Basically, they must allow the government to conduct spying protocols, otherwise they'll face prosecution. Fascism, much?

    Arsenal and Liverpool in race to sign James Maddison (Independent)

    Yep, any sale should have an 18 to 24 month mandatory loan-back clause in it, non-negotiable. If the big boys want him that badly, they can wait a while till he's matured into a world-class player.

    Maf!!

    Although I trust TM, I don't have any faith in MAF. He just clearly isn't what we need or want, and for there to be a better player languishing on the bench at his expense is quite bad, really. Tactically, I just cannot see how he adds anything positive to the team. Tudgay isn't a world...

    Arsenal and Liverpool in race to sign James Maddison (Independent)

    For me it was obvious, from day one. He just has 'it'. Not only has his last two performances hiked his price up, but it's illustrated we probably do need him more than we thought.
