Fair enough ..............only reason i asked is i cant see one single " footballing " reason why he shouldnt do well...........he has a very good understanding of the game both in England and Europe,is very hands on in his coaching methods....and is a very charismatic young manager proven to get the best from players. The sad truth is what you have said Baw......reasons nothing to do with football will be the biggest hurdle he faces !..........Personally i think he will do better in a country that doesnt desperately crave things to be offended by !!!.............but i certainly hope he d

  3. While thats an admireable stance to take....its not realistic............most folk will be a product of their environment thats just life.......to rise above the shit squalor and crime of your surroundings and live a good pillar of the community upstanding honest life takes a huge amount of guts,confidence and character the likes of which is rarely seen below a certain standard of living.

  7. Impasse: A position or situation from which there is no escape; deadlock. (in this context, the position being our conflicting viewpoints). Edited In: Jonah, I'm more of a "c**t" than a "bell end". But rest assured, I have zero interest in anyone's opinion of me. To me, you're all names on a screen, and thus your opinions are invalid to my conscience. Is that how you talk to your mates down the pub ? You have certainly read too many books ! And by the way..........i looked back at your post that i must of missed earlier......the fact your telling people to read Dave Courtneys boo

  9. If you have definately pinched a nerve and your not going to get proper treatment the only real home remedy apart from just resting it out is heat and ice......and anti inflam.

  12. Thats the democratic freedom of speech country we live in if you dont play ball !...........The mans a football manager who gives a shit what he believes outside football..........If he,s got strong beliefs and principals good for him............He was adored at West Ham......he,ll get hounded out of most clubs.....we named a lounge after him
  13. Whatever an " impasse " means............you have clearly read a lot more books than i have,and probably have a lot more education,memory and interest than i have.....so you crack on me ol son im merely pointing out id put more faith in a 10 minute conversation with the right person than studying 1000 pages of flannel !.....all the best.
  14. Oh i got plenty of stories about childhood tales round the manor mate......just most of them aint the sort you,d want to go repeating .....ive led a f****d up back to front life doing grown up things as a child.....and now im all grown up i want to do some childish things......but i think maybe sliding down hills on cardboard boxes and drying out socks on railway lines might be out the question now
  15. Well they looked pretty flat them Loch,s i might just give em a go ............if it was just about being able to do it i probably wouldnt bother but i can imagine being on water round that sort of scenery is some feeling !
  16. My heart go,s out to the poor kid...............but we dont need to look to the other side of the world to see scum and depravity we,ve got it on our own doorstep maybe if/when we sort our own problems we can help out elsewhere.

  18. Heres the mountain we used to slide down, if you look closely you can see the grooves in the mountain we would slide down and after a few days of kids sliding down they'd get really fast. How long would it take from top to bottom and what sort of speed would you pick up......think my arse would drop out and id have to accidentally on purpose fall off the cardboard
  19. Don't know about official weights gnash but me and the mate fooling around with his kid, using the kayak as a seesaw lol, kid middle, us at each end, floated no problem. We are both around 14 stone, so roughly 30 stone on it. Difficult to manouvers obviously with 2 big kids either end with legs in the water I've had mine totally full of water and it keeps me a float. It has buoyancy aids built into it. I'm not saying they are designed for this weight but proves they can take it. You thinking of Canoing the Thames gnash lol? Im not the best in/on water.............just thinking of trying t

  21. Must admit it makes me very jealous listening to all these childood stories........dont think i even saw a tree till my mid twenties and certainly didnt have the finesse to climb one Met a London lad when I was in my teens, he was down visiting his cousin who I was friends with. Didn't believe me at first when I told him I was off up the road to pick a few nuts off the trees, and when I insisted i was telling the truth he burst out laughing like I'd just told him the funniest joke in the world! Strange lot you Londoners, fair play! I can well believe it.......but it works both ways you k
