Remind me, what does that stand for again? I've forgotten. Is it "Put In The Sticks"? "Poor Infrastructure, Tiny Space"? "Parking Is Thankfully Spacious"? EDIT: "Proof In Three Seven-day-periods"?

It work really well when we win 4-0. One per shot on target.

Christ on a segway, yes! And agreed, the only way out of this is to "have a go" and at least get us a bit higher than the "bottom of the business cycle" before selling.

That was actually a serious piece? I honestly thought it was a satire...are you sure that it actually happened?!?

You tell me...maybe they're not? My overwhelming impression is that their current strategy is, roughly, "errrrrrrrrrr.........shit........Christ on a skateboard, dunno!"

This shop manager is an utter tool. Smarmy as hell. Notice how he always says the full London Wasps, which basically nobody ever does. None of his excuses wash at all and he's not very good at covering up the fact that he's bullshitting and filibustering. Nige was pretty tragic, though-he...

If it requires investment to make the profit further down the line, no, they won't....because that's how they operate. Christ on a hanglider....

I haven't today, no...

No, they didn't do it because that is not how they operate. It's no more in their nature to do that than it is in mine to fly.

It really doesn't: Hedge Funds usually try to make quick-bucks from retail by purchasing failing companies at knock-down prices, stripping out all of the infrastructure, selling anything that they can get decent value from and then either selling it on as a supposedly "lean" company (which will...

If we featured in a sticker album still, by the time it came out all of the players would have left! Apart from Thomas.

He's almost old enough for our 1st team squad now as well, isn't he?!

not bothering to order in any stock for Xmas was exactly what the chain of shops I used to work for did shortly before they went bust. They were owned by a Hedge Fund too. So, place your bets, folks-either a sale or liquidation before the end of the financial year?

Yes, I remember those. Although it was Riise at the same time as Trezeguet, not Henry. Lennon really hacked me off as it happened when I was following Reading when at Uni, too. Giovanni van Brockhorst was another we were meant to be close to signing but he went to Rangers instead.

Plus: Ghost Town (The Ricoh). Too Much Too Young (Finch & co.) Gangsters (SISU) Do Nothing (the midfield) Hey, Little Rich Girl (Joy) And for the lucky few with the limited edition More Specials, Braggin' & Tryin' Not to Lie (Timmy and Marky).

This thread comes around about once a year. I always nominate Idiot Joy Showland by The Fall: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HoWmlL6B2Mc Lyrics: Idiot groups with no shape or form Out of their heads on a quid of blow The shapeless kecks flapping up a storm Look at what they are a pack of...

I'm surprised every week by him on the FLS. He often seems to feature in the highlights pulling off good saves (as did Chris Dunn tonight), but of course he has made a couple of stunning cock-ups, too. Still, he seems to be a fairly established 'keeper at a top Championship side...never would...

Agree 100%, for every reason that you state. Of course, for all those weaknesses, we are still underachieving-and some of them can be at least partly blamed on the manager. A good manager over-achieves rather than under-achieves anyway, doesn't he? So if it's a 10th-14th squad, a decent manager...

Can't we have both? :)
