our season may well start in July. Unfortunately.

Oh, & Vladders, Sunny, if you ever have weekends the caravan is not rented let me know, me & Bex have been looking round for a caravan in Wales for the odd weekend but most of the prices are horrendous.

No worries Jon - sure we'll have a free weekend somewhere down the line

Oh dear.

Benitez is going to Juve. Broughton has nothing new to talk to him about re: investment. And I do mean NOTHING.
So Benitez is going to take the offer and funds promised.
Mascherano and Torres will *both* leave this summer.
Gerrard is 50/50 at best to stay.

We won't have a new manager in place for a while, although Hodgson looks likeliest.

It's game over.

Right so, that's Part One of "Operation Armaggeddon" completed:

Benitez in Italy
No new owners
No money to spend
Uncle Woy as manager.

If Part Two comes to fruition (losing any of Masher/ Torres/ Gerrard) we really are right in the fucking shit.

HOORAY

If we keep Stevie and Torres, we've got a fighting chance
[/quote]

Depends on what happens at LB and in midfield.

If we start the season with The Cunt, Insewer and The Shithouse all playing, we may as well fucking pack up and go home.
I would almost prefer Torres and Gerrard to leave, rather than go through another season like last year. They both deserve better.
 
Yeah, it's gonna be a struggle unless they're addressed.

Unless, of course, by some miracle they're both actually really good players and Woy gets the best out of them

*crosses everything*

Hopefully these reports of him having at least some money to spend are true, otherwise we're reet fooked
 
lol! i was wondering how long before you brought up lucas and insua

you're right though a well over the hill danny murphy will do more for us than lucas

No "R" in Lucas or Insua. I predict he will keep them. On the other hand Carragher, Torres and Gerrard may be moved on. And Riera has no chance

So, not quite "game over" and overall how do we feel?

Benitez out. Granddad in.
Only Masher left, as we all knew would happen anyway.
At least one more season from Torres. Gerrard staying.
No new owners. No investment.
Another transfer window in which we made a profit.
Purrssssslow still a lying cunt.
Broughton has done nothing.
Started the season poorly.

On the plus side with regard to new players: Joe Cole on a free. Hope for Meireles? Insua, Plessis, El Zhar gone.
Negative: Christian Crapsen. The Cunt still here, despite Stoke's efforts to take him on loan. No new striking options.

So not "Armageddon" quite. But it's getting there.
 
Plessis, insua, el zhar are gone. if we had new owners i think anyone would be hard pressed not to be quite happy

Poosen?
[/quote]

I tried that, or similar in a match thread. Didn't really work. It's a pretty tricky one.
Sometimes you just have to accept a really shit nickname. God knows we've had a few. I mean "Lucarse" is just terrible.
 
I actually like 'Lucarse' ; it describes perfectly his flaws as a player, but arguably it isn't as nasty as 'The Cunt'.

droolson?

you know......cos he's a window licker?
[/quote]

Bacon Savage?

Cos he's Danish, and looks/ plays like Robbie Savage?

Maybe just Bacon, because he's a pig of a player?

It's not great, but at the very least it incorporates a *decent* derogatory term, without being too much of a leap from his actual name.

'Poosen', while being quite close to his real name, is far too tame. I suppose 'Foolsen' would work, but again, not ideal. Or Stoolsen? Hasn't got the Toolsen? Hmmmm.
