The 2015-16 World Fitba Thread!

which side of "Dark Side Of The Moon" is playing in your apartment right now?

 

Shitty news. Doesn't look like MUFC know how to build a team at all. Just buy buy buy and hope it works out like City and Chelsea.

 

Van Gaal knows Schweinsteiger which surely helped the deal go through but basically yeah.

Modern club football is the sporting equivalent of the stock market.

 

Ah read that more people died in the Blitz than US soldiers in Vietnam.

 

Jimmeh - England foor hundred ahead, will take a mighty effort from Oz tae roll 'em over noo.

Auld Pigsticker is gonnae be great fer Man U.

 

Why don't you guys think he's a good signing? He's a solid footballer. Got a great eye for a pass, is very determined, mentally strong, attack minded and can defend. Also, he has leadership qualities.

 

I'm doing absolutely nothing this weekend. laddie. Young Jimmeh is feeling quite fragile today. I'll definitely be watching the cricket, keeping a close eye on transfer dealings and I cannot wait for the Djokovic-Federer final.

 

:bears:

Jimmeh kens.

 

Soonds like a plan... wiz it the Guinness that's done Yer heid in, perchance?

Ah will alsae doing all o' the above but alsae be keeping a low profile thanks tae a beauty o' a shiner Ah got in a worksplace ROONDERS game... Ah managed tae top hit the ball and it span back right intae the side o' my face and the bassa bruising spread across tae make me look like Ah'm a Droog from a Clockwork Orange ::

Ah didnae even flinch, mind, just kept playing and hitting those ROONDERS like Ah wiz a Black n' Tan wi' a truncheon.

 

You're a true warrior, Billeh, a true warrior. Even in the heat of battle, when the going gets tough, you don't back down, you keep on fighting and moving forward. We're PROOOUD of you, laddie. You wear that shiner with PRRRRIDE ::

 

:: LMFKO!

 

Fixed.

 

I'll fix you if you don't pipe down.

 

:: ::

I was down in Hounslow West last week, is that your territory.........you can touch the planes as they fly in over your head!

Do you know that three magpies place :dunno:

 

I try to avoid Hounslow West like the plague. Is the three magpies a pub?

 

Joe Root should have caught that really.

 

Three Magpies is an auld boozer down past Hounslow West in the general direction of Heathrow, it's advertized as being on Bath Road Heathrow.

I was working in Slough all week, I am burned to a fucking crisp. I get off the Piccadilly at Hounslow West and then 81 bus down to Brian Clough for the day.

Fun times. :wack:

Slough is nice enough in parts, it's very moderns, as the Pakistani guy next door says.

 

I hope England win. It annoys fuck out of my English housemate. He's of Indian lineage, and has profited immensely out of growing up in England and London, and accordingly it is natural that he hates England. :wack:

He's only my housemate when I am fortunate enough to be staying in Greenford of course ::

You can tell if England have won or lost because he'll have the highlights on if they have lost. And off if they have won.

 

Aussies 162 fer 7... looking good fer the Sasnachs.

Whit's a shinner ba the wee, Irish? Is this like the 'Shinning' in one o' they Simpsons Halloween specials, like?

:will:

 

A Shinner is a Sinn {pr "Shin} Feiner {pr "Fayner"} a member of the Sinn Fein party.

 

:will:

Damn Yer eyes!

 

You all set for tomorrow, the Glorious 12th, where Prodz celebrate their victory over the Ivory Coast like ::

 

::

Those Ivory Coasters shouldae never, NEVER questioned the integrity o' the sash.

Just kilting - Ah'm all aboot the fitba.

 

BilleHh, have you joined 'Andy Murray's sweaty jockstrap' yet?

 

Is this a Twitter accoont or some'at? Or are Ye asking me if Ah'm having carnal relations wi' a wee bit o' damp and musty cloth?

:up:

A fyewd's riding on this... Ah dinnae like tae hear the word 'Jock' (j/k).

Whit d'Ye think o' the cricket?

 

:: that's the name of the league I created on the Barclays fantasy site.

I think Engerland are going to win the 1st test in the next 20 minutes :: Truth be told I've been watching documentaries since aboot 12pm so I've only been watching bits of the cricket.

 

England win the 1st test :bears:

 

That is great stuff.

No cricket highlights tonight at Sudbury Towers.

 

Well on Bayern's side they signed Xabi Alonso last year to step in because Schweinsteiger was injured. However Alonso is also up there in years himself. What are they going to do to fill that gap?

From United's perspective they just signed a 30 year old player with lots of wear and tear to a 3 year deal who's never played a day in the EPL.

 

Precisely. They have signed a name rather than a player.

5 years ago this would have been a big deal.

I think LVG has lost the fucking plot, to be honest.
