  1. Whether he,ll have the authority as a manager im not sure but in some ways i hope he doesnt i miss him doing the punditry stuff he was like a breath of fresh air really interesting to listen to.
  2. Dont be silly nobody will be able to afford to go to Utd games this time of year what with the Arndale centre AND the Trafford centre.
  3. I love the game but wouldnt claim to know much tactically......yet its always struck me how as a nation England have never played to our strengths,why when we play tricky highly technical teams like Spain do we try to play technical football like them instead of the old fashioned pace and power we are good at......we would all love to play like Spain and Brazil........i would imagine Carl Froch would like to box like Muhammad Ali but you do what your best at to get results.
  4. I agree it followed its instinct and thats more than most dogs do these days......but like anything a dog will only perform well for as long as it has air in its lungs,hence an average dog in great condition is always better than a good dog in poor condition id imagine that theory applies to almost any task a dog is set.
  5. I dont know were your sources are for expectations but I for one and most others u speak for just want to watch a decent game of football, werent you west hams fans all prattling on about the west ham way? I think man utd is a little better known for attacking football than west ham so after spending god knows how many hundreds of millions of pounds I think utd fans are entitled to be frustrated by the way the team are playing. You got Sam Allardice and spent bog all yet expected to play like man utd we are man utd spent half a billion and employed van gaal one of supposed top coaches, I yhink
  6. Drop me a pm with your address Bird and i,ll chuck it in the post You,ve heard the saying " cant hit a barn door "......well i cant even hit the f****n barn !!!
  7. I bought one off a chap on here a while ago but im absolutely useless with it if you can put it to use your welcome to it
  8. Perfect pitches....packed out stadiums.....record viewing figures......some of the worlds best talent......................and Millwall gone and forgotten about in the lower leagues.......yes id call that massive progress ! And your point is? One more time, part of his post is about the 1960s. and yes until Millwall is no more I will support them, is there a Problem With That My point is only a Millwall fan could possibly think that players rolling round in the mud chucking beer down their neck at half time were " the good old days " in terms of competetive sport...................
  9. Thats what i was getting at........i find it hard to believe a dog carefully selected over many years for its fighting qualities could ever be as good as a dog carefully selected even for a few years for its guarding qualities........ive seen pit bulls turn on humans on a couple of occassions and neither time was it a pretty sight but i would guess its the difference between wild mayhem and correct procedure in terms of breeding/selection/training etc.
  10. Again,i know nothing about guard/protection dogs but i know a little about pit bulls and i wouldnt imagine a pit bull would work its hold on a human the way it would on another dog......take hold and keep hold yes......work its hold and swap for better ones with the same intensity as it would another dog im not so sure about that.
  11. Spot on with that comment its the difference between young men who want to be famous and young men who want to be boxing champions.........no razzmatazz no attention seeking gypsy warrior nonsense Bills dad when asked how proud he is said " very proud but no more proud than any other father of a word champion would be "......just nice normal humble people i went past their place today just a white bedroom sheet with " champion of the warld " written on it,an england flag and a few balloons.......he,s certainly put Holywell Caravan Site on the map .......the accomplishment is the achievement i

  13. well any breed of dog over 100lb going to get bad hips+ elbows , HD was very bad in bullmastiffs, and there temps were to docile, they why I came out of the breed, you spend more time at the vets with them . the B/mal I reckon if well bred would make hell of a guard dog, after seeing them on the vids. they don't loose there hold and got very strong jaw and strong dogs for there size. lets face it a bite of a farm collie would fekin hurt never mind a 70lb B/mal , and be more healthy and vicious than most boerboels . I have no idea about the health of the Boerboel (Farmers Bulldog

  15. I agree with a few of the comments above while we accept these things have to be done and we dont have a problem with it theres some things you really dont need to make a song and dance about......what possible reason is there to take a picture like that i dont understand it !
  16. Yes but by the same token Harry Cripps or Terry Hurlock wouldnt of lasted 2 minutes with the speed and technicality of todays premier league.......if you like watching people sliding about in the mud kicking each other up in the air go and watch rugby !.......but if you are a fan of pure football its called progress. It certainly is a strange season people say there are better leagues around the world but do lesser clubs and second tier clubs come up and do what the likes of Palace/Watford/Leicester are doing in La Liga,Serie A or the Bundesliga.....i dont think theres a league anywhere
  17. Brilliant win he boxed perfectly to the plan Jimmy set i thought Billy should of had enough confidence in his own chin to open up and really try to get him out after the knockdowns but then thats why Jimmy Tibbs is a top trainer and im not .......Lee had the reach and power advantages but Saunders overcame that by working his upper body into positions to steal space and exploding forward with his jab......along with his sound defence he has always had good reactions and sees things quickly the way he closed the space,rolled and threw the jab/hook was what got Lee down in the first place.....i
  18. I think we,re on dangerous ground if that is the case wheres it going to end.....player power dictating which managers can stay and which have to go ?.......they get well paid to play football not take part in popularity contests if they wont give their best they shouldnt be paid thats life the world over im afraid. As for fans leaving grounds early.....ive been in a football ground virtually every week of the season since a child be it my own club or others ive only ever noticed 1 or 2 clubs who have had large amounts of fans leave early and they are renowned for it........maybe the rest
  19. Interesting that mate, as I agree with some not all, Do you genuinely believe Chelsea are in a relegation battle? I don't think they are, not at all, I see them having a rough few months that is it...I see a team struggling but I don't ever see them going down, nowhere like it. The table don't lie, that's a given, but seriously, do you think if mourinho had stayed on, they would be in the championship? I think he would have binned Costa and hazard off and got in a big striker, someone like the arnauvic at Stoke or Dzeko or even a huge name like benzema. Fabregas would have been
  20. How you doing sir good i hope.....watch him work the heavy bag for 5 minutes and he,ll look every bit a boxing man .....i know what you mean he almost seems too intelligent and clean cut but it seems to be the new era of trainers a lot of them are getting their education in the classroom before their experience in the ring its just the way it is now but for somebody who didnt turn pro himself i personally think he reads a fight well and has a great understanding of the psychology of a fighter........he is the polar opposite to Jimmy Tibbs which is what i,ll find fascinating about this contest
  21. I wonder if any other manager in the world other than Mourinho would of hung onto his job as long as he did after the calamity of a season they have had......if they was lagging behind in 7th or 8th you would say maybe sacking him is a bit harsh......but a relegation battle .....seems perfectly fair to me anyone else would of been out the door ages ago. " Football is not a hard game,you keep hold of the ball and dont let the other team get it and you will win ".......it doesnt seem to work out like that for Arsenal

  23. Bless your hearts lets hope for a positive outcome and some good old fashioned christmas spirit.
  24. THL breeds oddballs they will never all be gone ....... Dont you go getting me in trouble i can feel another cyber assassination attempt coming on here !....... just because you get more than me doesnt mean your more important
