Re: June 18th Pub Crawl

In the year of our Lord 1314, patriots of Scotland charged the field of Bannockburn . They fought like warrior poets. They fought like Scotsmen. And won their freedom. Been there. Went to the visitor centre, put on the chain mail. Didn't see Mel Gibson though. Pal does that mean your now going as R...

Re: June 18th Pub Crawl

Lol well don't say you wasn't told . You'll be leading us in . ;) I will even wear my William Wallace outfit. Tom has got the 'Freedom' covered as he contentiously likes to shout it.

Re: Sofiane Feghouli. Signed.

Just popped in quickly to say how delighted I am with the way we are conducting our transfer business so far. I trust Bilic, the owners and the scouting network to make sure we bring in value for money with each and every single signing we make, be it a free signing, a player costing ten million or...

If you wanted a punch up at least wait until the season starts .
That did occur to me as well.

Do I need to be tooled-up ?

Brexit

I was in Bristol yesterday and was stopped by a Remain lobbyist. I said I was voting out. She was very charming but a student by the looks of it and didn't have a clue about the question I asked before I gave her an answer. 2 weeks ago I thought no chance but now ? Possibly. They're panicking. Sendi...

Re: Italy

Yes they did well.

But much-fancied Belgium just never turned up. De Bruyne and Lukaku dreadful, Hazard a few dribbles but nothing else. Aldeweireld hopelessly caught out for the opener. Their best player was the sub, Martens.

Early days yet.

Re: June 18th Pub Crawl

Looking forward to it. It will be good to put some faces to names.

Just so you recognise me, I'm now in my 60's but have more hair than Gonzo.

Re: lacazette

Does anyone know if this is a Bilic signing or a chairman signing? Would be a shame to think about the what ifs for the sake of £8m, which is nothing money these days and we end up with benteke instead I hope we do. If we get Tore, as expected, we'll have two wingers getting crosses in. Not to ment...

Re: Sofiane Feghouli. Signed.

Aaaah. Such wealth of riches.

And I watched Gonzo and Geo on the transfer video last night.

All we need now are Joey Barton and Grant Holt and they can start planning for the season.

Official UEFA statement

Any further trouble from Russian fans in the stadiums will result in Russia being thrown out of the tournament.

This will have no bearing on them hosting the 2018 world cup because we've already spunked the bribe money.
