As you say Hope, when the club fails to achieve the goals we would all like, of course the resident know-it-all on here is going to have claims to be right more often than not. It's called the law of averages....when you predict doom on everything. He will continue to do so, just so he can gloat about being right more often than anybody else. It's the only way he get his jollies...

What like wishing for the end of the world or stating you don’t care about leeds any more.Quote:

Don’t let any of us pierce the fantasy world you inhabit or get in the way of bashing those keys though.

And btw, I don't take to "bashing those keys" it's detrimental to the health of the tech.Quote:

What I don't do anymore is make time for misserable cnuts who just tend to drag me down with them. I've binned a few off in my personal life already. Life is short and precious, and i've had plenty of nagative shyte to contend with over the last three years - not anymore Hopey. I don't have either the time nor inclination to argue or even correspond with deppressing constantly negative fcukwitts, either in person or on forums like this, and believe me I wish I had seen the light years ago.
Just saying like
Sunderland not happy (welcome to our world) just sold Jack Clarke to Ipswich for 15m + 5m in add ons, Spurs get a 25% , so basically they have sold one of the best wingers in the championship and will be getting 11.75m up front , he's only 23 , Ipswich had their pants down and may even stay up now.
Until we are dining in the top division again we are all primed for this sort of sh1t.
