Birmingham City are just a bit grotty, they're not really worth hating. Though they do seem to more than their fair share of thugs following them (or used to, anyway).

Who does he think he is, Mariah bloody Carey?

I mean yes. I guess the difference is that there's a strong sense of being culturally distinct in the Basque Country, and the club see themselves almost as a national team. I don't think they approach it from a point of bigotry, in other words. I suppose the rights and wrongs of it are...

I almost forgot: Red Bull Salzburg. A traditional club with long-standing support base stolen and rebranded to be used as advertisement by maker of vile, caffeinated drinks. A corporate version of Milton Keynes. RB Leipzig. Obviously.

Sorry, I've just PM'd you with an apology, actually. I don't think my original post reads very well.

You don't have an issue with the Orange marches? Or think the fact that Rangers refused to sign Catholic players within my lifetime is acceptable? Ok. It's not Protestantism that I have a problem with, but the Orange Order's brand of deliberately provocative antiquated triumphalism. I thought...

Ok, let's start with: Milton Keynes. They're not a football club. They do not have their league place on merit, they stole it from another club. Any apologist for them needs to take a look at themselves, and think how they'd feel if their club was taken from them. Now on to actual proper...

Driving and calculating percentages is very dangerous.

Not if you're trying to determine which team has the upper hand, no. Who's doing better, us, or them; no-one! Also, not that it's the point, but your percentages don't add up.

Yes, but the percentage splits remain evenly distributed between us and them; nobody has the upper hand. Unless you specifically meant that the percentages between win, draw and loss will be tighter. In which case, yes. But that's not generally what people mean. They mean who's on top.

As tight. Who will blink first?

As tight.

I have no idea, and no intention of finding out. Do you hold him personally responsible for any points dropped when he was on the pitch? That question implies it. That would be silly, though. The only stupidity I can see here is dismissing Ayari as a player of limited ability. He was clearly...

Yeah, they're clearly not shit, they're a top team at this level. That's it, though, despite SU's greater consistency, they look first amongst equals, whereas Burnley and Leeds look like they could compete a level up (albeit in Burnley's case, very dully). SU were as bad a top-flight team as...

No it wasn't. It didn't work out, but there were no repercussions. There was no risk to it.

Nobody's in a false position. Their form has levelled out since the first part of the season, but it's still hardly terrible.

I don't know what you mean, we scored against Scunthorpe! I like it as an idea, it just appeared suspicious when the first three posted were abject defeats.

They'll probably be expecting him to run around, tbf. \o/

Is this a troll account?

Is that an order?
