didn't take long did it?

i assume he's looking forward to another big pay-off, having already made about 250 million pouns from all his sackings so far

'Ed Sheeran' will be Ipswich Town's shirt sponsor next season.
So less the Tractor Boys, more the GALWAY GIRLS I believe that is one of his songs, so my comment does make sense!!!

I hope he insists they play that every time ipswich score a goal so all their players are too scared to ever score a goal again

Post by **blombluss** » Thu May 06, 2021 6:24 pm

Heh!

Could they stay up if they draw all their matches 0-0? It might just about be possible.

i think the southend chairman might be the most pathetic man in existence

I see potential England manager Wayne Rooney's Derby County are in rather a pickle.

How odd. How can this be? For is it not written that all high profile England international footballers will become very good managers?

'Roo' (you) beauty! (Derby just about stayed up)

Absolute shoo-in for the Spurs job now.

I think you have to pass an extensive and thorough 'are you an arsehole?' test to become a chairman.

Wolves are on the telly again to-morrow. Against Brighton (12pm BBC 1)

They surely can't be as bad again as they were against Burnley, can they?

NARRATOR: Yes.

Thanks Brightvuss!

I always feel a bit sad when all the relegated places in a division are confirmed. Unless my club has just escaped by the skin of their teeth, of course.

Man Utd you have messed up

C'mon Leicester! Do it for the greater Midlands!

Leicester in MAROON?!?!

They'll definitely lose, now. :'(

Post by **blombluss** » Sat May 15, 2021 6:46 pm

Of course when I said "They'll definitely lose, now. :'(", I was referring to Chelsea.

Lovely leicester

VAR is still irredeemably shit though

Post by **blombluss** » Sat May 15, 2021 6:50 pm

Average match, great goal, two really good saves from Schmeichel, and Chelsea were rather unfortunate, I thought.

I'm still chuffed that Leicester won, mind. Y'know, one of those unimportant non-Super League clubs, and you could really see how much it meant to their players and fans alike.

I'd forgotten all about that! It's a strong look, imo.

I watched the womens champions league final. chelsea scored an own goal after 30 seconds, gave away a penalty after ten minutes, and were four nil down after half an hour

Post by **dng** » Sun May 16, 2021 9:01 pm

then barcelona passed the ball round for an hour and nothing else really happened till the final whistle

That was a cracking header from Alisson.

It really was! Love a goalie goal

Post by **dng** » Mon May 17, 2021 2:28 pm

yes. i liked the way it was actually a proper nice goal too.

Post by **dng** » Mon May 17, 2021 2:28 pm

It's strange how the man united fans only seem to hate their owners when they're playing liverpool, isn't it

Post by **blombluss** » Tue May 18, 2021 6:58 pm

Ha! Good point!

Post by **blombluss** » Fri May 21, 2021 6:46 pm

oh no nuno :'(

He's the best thing to happen to Wolves for years and years. We weren't great this season, granted, but considering the injuries (to Raul Jimenez in particular), and selling some of our best players, we were solid and mostly free from relegation worries for a fair chunk of the season. A stoopid decision in my opinion.

Post by **dng** » Fri May 21, 2021 6:49 pm

Weep. Lovely nuno

Post by **dng** » Fri May 21, 2021 6:50 pm

I assume he left though rather than being sacked surely

Post by **blombluss** » Fri May 21, 2021 6:58 pm

The "by mutual agreement" bit is cobblers, I reckons. The board thought the team were on the slide, and decided to "freshen" things up with a new managerial appointment. Nuno deserved another season for he's done, and if by the end of next season things weren't great, then, and only then, should they have given him his cards.

Wolves will rue this day.

No one ever deserves to be allardyced

Post by **dng** » Fri May 21, 2021 7:30 pm

Also if they did sack lovely nuno they should all be executed for their crimes

Executed by means of being fed to that walrus in the walrus thread
