Ding π
Dammit GT π
From last bar before Holic inadvertently cut me off :/
Lars @ 433, haha what can I say, Ludivine is such a beauty π Ecstatic she responded to me first though on the Q&A out of everybody though π
abb @ 434, agreed, it would almost be a travesty for Spain to win it, robotic is a bit much to describe them bit itworks, Italy are like the finest handcrafted items, their defects give them their charm, Spain are the industrial production line, mass production, injection molding and the likeβ¦ Its just not good π
Now, onto that season review DVD… I’ll be (trying to be) having that! π
One of those DVDs is mine – I am THAT confident π
So if me and Wind are gonna take the first two, who’s gonna get the other one?
I’m equally THAT confident, why I can see ‘Holic’s post with my name on it somewhere already… π
*goes to enter the competition*
@GT That’ll be me, then
GoonerTerry, Wind & Oxon Gooner for the competition winners! Alright ‘Holic, you can end the competition now π
I’ll take tabs runner up spot then – an honour is better than a prize
Oil have a guess…… π
‘holic. These contest procedures are a little complicated for one of my limited intelligence, but I’ll have a go. π
‘holic FYI I had some problems with my email account so will be sending my contest entry from my new email address which is attached to this post.
H2H. I’m glad you liked the Giroud goals video at 420 in the previous drinks.
Hopefully he can replicate that form for us. Please, Please, Please!!!!!!
Ok I might be over thinking this but am I the only one who thought about what might happen if Italy win?
Lots of their players are from Juve. Lucio is signing for Juve on Monday. Add that to Buffon and Chiellini. Are you thinking what I’m thinking? That this whole thing might convince RvP that glory will be achieved at Juve?
Or am I over thinking ;)?
*BOILK*
clearly overthinking Snir
Mega Boilk.
Stop thinking Snir
Theme for this weekends Le Figaro – Londres – what a puke – but there’s a spread on a certain AW who, between his round the world jaunts, apparently is based there (who knew that), typifying the French ex-pat in London…
Snir, don’t make me remotely shut down your brain until the final later π
@ 13
So if Italy win, I collect Β£75 notes and Arsenal lose RvP?
I guess then it will be MY fault.
I’ll take my chances….. 8)
Is it available on Betamax?

Cognac @17 –
Don’t believe everything you read Cognac. I drive past the end of the road where AW reportedly lives, every couple of weeks to visit my mother, and I’ve never seen him yet. π
H2H @21 –

@ Trev – from the previous drink
Oh, i thought that there would be a congregation at the Tollie for the away fixture as well.
It is s shame, would have been delighted to meet some of you fellow holics.
‘a shame’ and not ‘s shame’
Stupid typing skills
Re: Trev @22. The only neighbors I ever see are the ones out walking their dogs. The others apparently sit inside slapping the sausage, choking the chicken or some such, so maybe that’s what AW is doing. π
Seems you have a lot of meat violaters in your neck of the woods 8ball.
H2H. The local meat inspector indeed has quite a job to do. π
Here’s a sample of the meat inspector’s work:

Meat inspector?
Sounds right up Wolfie’s alley. (oo-er)
Afternoon all.
Snir @ #13 I would disengage brain, just for a little bit mind, and return to peering into those fine crystal balls of yours. Hope you’re having a good summer π
UTA! or Up The Azzuri (for one evening only)
@ Wind from the previous drinks
…”Iβll be 18 by the time the season begins, hope to get to the opening Sunderland home game and meet you rowdy lot over a pint/lemonade at the Toilie and come on all over the first time face to face meeting….”
Errr…. would you care to re-phrase that young man or is the excitement going to be too much for on of such tender years?
TS@31: and if disengaging brain does not worked, I do remember dear old Clive “The Sweeper” Waterman giving Snir a universal advice that always works… π
(and where the hell are you, Mr Sweeper? We miss you!)
Heh! @ Lars π
I concur.
Clive for President.
Not of Sweden. π
zico, maybe not of Sweden. Though it could be quite interesting to have a president whose solution for crow control issues is to hire girls who offer free handjobs at train stations…
Back on the ST soon. For some reason i cant remember whether Arsenal won today or not.
2 best teams in the tournament in the final. sky-high-stakes. probably tight ‘n’ tactical…
comon spaitalia!
@36. – π
AL – now that sounds like food for Astronauts – or space cadets like Balotelli. π
Ah forty – Evening Major !
* Realises he is talking to himself and goes to sit down quietly in the corner *
All my life, Italy have been playing the most boring of boring games. Spain have always played a technical and attack-oriented game. This tournament, Spain have been dull and boring beyond words and Italy have played brilliantly entertaining football for large parts. Strange.
I still think this could be a really good game. If either team can get a fairly quick goal then I think the game will open up.
* can’t resist wittering again in the corner *
heard a discussion on the radio the other day as to who might be our new Pirlo, in the light of his Euro performances, (Xavi and Iniesta are just sooo yesterday’s men) and inevitably and ridiculously the name of Jack Wilshere was mentioned.
This was, as they said, really because no other manager of a top team is prepared to give young players a chance in the first team, as the pressure to win trophies is too great.
Only Arsene Wenger will risk playing the likes of Walcott, Oxlade-Chamberlain and Wilshere.
And what does AW get in return – criticism for not spending the club into administration, and constant reminders that we have not won a trophy for seven years.
None of this is new, of course, but as Euro Final night arrives, and we are nowhere to be seen again, I’m still listening and waiting for one single word of praise in Arsene’s direction, since they were quick enough for his first decade at the club,to point out that the shortcomings of the England team were entirely his fault – picking all those nasty foreigners.
Heh trev @ 40 Nasa worka!
Unlike most (from what I read), I really enjoyed the first meeting inthis comp’ between the two teams that will compete tonights final. The first half may of been goalless but there were tons of chances, the second half was pretty exciting.
I’m hoping for more of the same tonight, but because there is so much at stake it will probably be tight.
Trev, Arsene Wenger will never get the praise he deserves while he is still at the club. This “oh, but he hasn’t won anything since 2005” stuff without putting it into any sort of context whatsoever is just mind-numbingly stupid and lazy.
I’m hoping for a really tight tactical battle viz no goals at all in ze first hundred and tventy minutes, and no shots on goal, at all.
I vant ze excitement of ze pelanties – yes, I am an old friend of Chris Voddel – where ze goaleez are so tactically avare zat zey save all ze pelanties for ze first qvarter of an hour.
Zen, as ze Cherman head coach, I can go to bed happy zat we lost ze tournament to a better team !
So am I Lars ! π
Their game in the group was excellent H2H, but I doubt this one will evolve in as open a match. Heart says Italy to win, head says it goes on penalties. I also think Spain has one too many agitators on their side for Italy to finish the match with eleven men, having Balotelli in their side.
Cin-cin
Indeed Trev and Lars.
Devnull knows !
Trev@49, what? Mind-numbingly stupid and lazy, you mean? π
And heh@48!
Hi all. Both captains in the tunnel, one introspective (Iker), the other (Gigi) staring down the opponents…with Pique checking out Gigi. Mind games. My heart firmly with the Azzurri, esp. the bianconeri mates.
π
We shall see Dev’.
I see Del bosque is continueing his mission to banish CF’s from the face of football.
Trev, just as we were talking about shit punditry, have a butcher’s at this brilliant parody of MOTD:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AfQarImZ97Y
π
Silva bullet header
Great goal, must say that Spain have really tried to attack Italy from the start. None of this boring sideways stuff at all so far.
Spain look like a different team then the one we’ve seen so far.
Ouch.
Can’t see Italy come back from that.
great tempo/intensity to the game so far. italtia not content to sit in their own half and wait for spain to make a mistake then break – have the bottle/skill to have a go – and try make a game of the thing.
But spain showing why most teams try to kill the game when they play them, at the mo. Next goal italy’s hopefully – but spain purring
zico fiver hangs by a perilous thread…..
Spain’s killing ’em innit π
Spain way too good for Italy, who to their credit are also giving it a go.
Just being outclassed at the moment.
Very very good game so far.
Now that is a game of football.
BBC, here I come. π
Will check your link later Lars, cheers.
Bang goes the zico pint at the Sunderland game.
Oh well π
Not to worry, will Lars be there ?
And then they’ve got Casillas an’ all…
Trev, won’t be at the Sunderland game (but almost certainly at the Southampton one in September) so I’m afraid I can’t help you out on the drinks front in August π
I’ve always supported/understood Cesc’s wish to return home having been with us for 7 years, but watching this tonight I think he could have repaid us /Arsene for all the opportunity and trust he received as such a young player.
He would not have had the first team opportunity to become the player he clearly has, had it not been for AW, and it’s a pity he walked before we could see this sort of maturity from him.
Lars, you could still send your wallet over. π
Motta hammy gone !
A Diabyesque cameo.
Trev, on the other hand, if he wasn’t happy in London anymore he probably wouldn’t have been this good. And I do wonder how his hamstrings would have been affected by him still playing in the Premier League. He had some problems with them this past season too, but he has been able to rest a lot more than he would have been able to had he remained with us.
It was hard enough for them with eleven men.
It will be a miracle if they can come back with ten.
Trev@75: well, you could of course just open up a tab at the Tollie and tell them that I’ll be over a month later to settle it!
If anyone can do it italy can – come to “an arrangement” with the 4th official and get another man on, that is
If Italy were animals someone would stop this.
Think he’d have to be wearing an Azurri cape AL.
Hey a striker’s coming on….
Err wait, it’s only Torres.
Cesc Fabregas shows Arshavin how to handle playing “in the wrong position”: by working harder than ever and being arguably the best player on the pitch. I must confess to applauding here in front of the telly as he walked off the pitch when being subbed for Torres.
Painful enough w/o having to hear how ‘great’ la roja is from the pundits. Poor defending from Italy and bad luck to boot (pun intended).
Super-hero to be caped by Italy – Spidermancini?
…but of course, the cunts at Le Garbage takes the opportunity to have a go at Wenger on Twitter:
Le Groveβ@LeGrove
I can’t really hate him. He’s such an unbelievable player. Wenger didn’t give him the squad he needed to succeed. He went somewhere else.
What a bunch of wankers.
Game done.
Crap!
Bastardo !
π
Spain bringing on another player, like it Mata s.
Well it does Mata know.
Jeeez already…
*now, dammit.
One mata dor – closes and finishes orf the brave Ities
Pardon – juan mata dor closes game out with 4th goal and finishes orf brave ities
Psed – hoping the mighty Arse are as boring as the spains next season
It doesn’t Mata to the result..it’s all over now.
Well done Spain and Feck off Ladbrokes – back to the drawing board π
Well after a performance like that you just have to tip your hat and say congratulations Spain.
Should be quite a party around Dr C’s way.
Well, congrats to the Spanish team. They fully deserved this, they might have been too inhibited (played maybe a little bit with the handbrake on?) earlier on in the tournament but in the final they were simply brilliant.
Well in Zico….the ‘holic hundred is a much more sort over victory.
Zico?
FFS must go to the opticians…..100 = 99 – apologies to Zico for the false award and congrats to H2H. Drinks on my tab to those offended.
Watched the game with friends, so couldnt comment throghout it but as said, victory well deserved by spaniards, although italy had some very bad luck regarding injuries.
Spain seemed to be much more urgent in final third, unusual directness combined with their tiki-taka was just joy to watch and cesc was simply brilliant. Completely agreed with Lars @84 that he showed how player played “out of position” should work. Shame about Mottas injury, up to that point it was really great final and should italians score, it would be game on.
Also now it sparks thinking point..were Spain playing with “handbrake on” simply because they didnt have to step up their game until in final? Except penalties with Portugal they didnt have too much trouble getting in there.
Well in H2H – Zico close but no cheroot
Just got home.
Got text updates from Spanish colleagues so I know the score.
Meh.
Favourite goal?
Well I’m only seeing H2H’s above so congrats!
Thanx Ollie.
No offence taken Uply’, but I’ll still have a beer, cheers.
Was neutral so just enjoyed the game – Espana were deserved winners.
Yr welcome H2H – what’s on offer in yr establishment?? Amstel, Oranjeboom, Heinekin?? Any of the really good Belgian beers?
Welcome back Ollie…you were about 30 miles east of where I am in
Lyme Bay. Understand extra alcoholic supplies were diverted to Weymouth for some reason or other at the weekend.
Cheers Up!
Barman @ 70
Plenty more bad bets where that one came from π
Should still manage to buy you a beer though!
TS @ 32, nice to see you missed out the smilies you cheeky bugger π But now that I’ve looked over it, I meant the similes to convey excitement as in, “come over all excited over the first face to face meeting” but even THAT sounds slightly wrong… Maybe I’m just a dirty lad π³
Wind – when you’re in a hole ….. No that sounds just as bad. π
Wind – look, safest bet is just make damn sure you don’t come over anyone’s face. End of ! π
Why don’t I ever put my money where my mouth is. I think I could have earned a few pesetas tonight. π
Trev – I’ll definitely make sure not to, if I ever make it to the Tollie to meet you lot that is π
Lars, That was a cracker of a video at 58, proving that parody is not the highest form of flattery. Quite the opposite of flattery, I should say. π
vai italia π
well done spain, cesc player of the game π π
Well done Spain, and by that I mean Cesc
Euros was all a bit meh for me
Wind @ #113 – I type it as I see it.
Trev @ #115 – Precisely so, although that is only a personal opinion.
Happy Mondays to you both.
Congrats to Spain, the best side in the tournament won. Not even ze Chermans could have stopped them. Really felt for Italy esp. when they went down to 10 men – a hugely improved team who should have a decent world cup in two years.
Right, Euros over and the new season is just SEVEN weeks away.
UTA!
Not even ze Chermans could have stopped them.
I expect better from you TS: how do you know? They didn’t qualify for the final.
Now the distractions are over, we can get down to some close-season madness.
Chemicals will be required. Get your orders in early.
Do you think Snir will make a comeback, zico?
Depends whether the good Doctors get to him first π
HeΒ΄s safely drugged up. And guarded with baseball bats…
http://www.arsenal.com/news/reserves-news/loan-watch-denilson-starts-as-sao-paulo-win
Hang on, I thought he was back already.
Guess it was his last game there. Would he have been allowed to play on if the game had been delayed and carried on past midnight? π
@ 126
Me too. 8)
Juve are having a laugh.
Β£8m bid Juve rejected by Arsenal for RvP.
Come on Season Review Doovde! Do me proud.
Dr C
Patient on the loose…..
Snir!!! Must be a joke. Do they call it the ‘Silly’ season?
Dr C 126 you might indeed want to review your procedures….
Finished working.
Fasten your seat belts, it’s gonna be one heluva ride.
Re: Dr. Z @123: THANK GOODNESS!!! One variety pak good doctor, and an extra pak anticipating the return of the esteemed Clive Waterman Gooner Since ’54 from the extra secure secure unit.
A brief investigation has revealed that the ultra high doses of Lithium prescribed for Snir have been replaced by sugar pills.
Nurse Wolfie and Dr F were last seen skipping lethargically down the train swinging their bats.
Investigation continues….
The Real Success Story
John Cross of The Daily Mirror was on maverick form on Twitter on Sunday, sulking and supporting Italy because Spain didn’t play a striker, but our favourite missive was this one:
‘Spain 4-0 Mata. His first touch of tournament. 3 Premier League goalscorers. Best league in the world.’
Why, yes. Of course, that was the big victory of Sunday.
And people wonder why some of us think John Cross is a cnut.
No Zenit for AA.
What now!!?
Ollie@136. Is it because we can’t spell Corss?
HMMmm Lithuim, I’ll have mine with a side of vodka please.
Well that’s the end of the Euro’s, it maybe wasn’t the best, but it was far from the worst, plus a month of footy on the box is never a bad thing as distractions go.
So, now that silly season will truly begin I was just pondering the meaning of the phrase transfer window. Maybe it’s like a real window that you open to let bad smells, i.e unwanted players, out and fresh air, in this case shiny brand new signings, in.
Maybe I’m just overthinking it and the real reason it’s called a window is because with all the rumours, gossip speculation and nonsense envolved it’s realy just a pane in the arse.
Snir I would love to see AA back in our colours but not going to happen I suppose, also cant see him playing for us anyway in the current squad, maybe Juve will bid for him instead of RvP:P 8mil is what we want for him anyway right?
Mr C –
This must not under any circumstances leak out – no it’s not Feelgood’s specimen – but I fear that 8ball chap may be onto something.
I’m sure you said you were going to let Waterman and those damned dwarves out of the ultra secure unit.
They couldn’t still be …… Could they ?
From the BBC sports “Gossip column”
Arsene Wenger has ruled out leaving Arsenal to replace Laurent Blanc as France manager.
Full story: Daily Mail
Ahhhh… Bless….
Oxon: There was a story a couple of weeks ago that Blanc was a candidate to be the next manager of Sp**s so Arsene Wenger’s fate may still be intertwined with Blanc’s in other interesting ways.
Doubt it bt8, looks like AVB’s mother’s change of profession is a rather insistent rumour.
Wouldn’t be completely surprised to see Blanc and Deschamps swap jobs though.
Interestingly they’ve both got the same agent (who is also Nasri’s…).
http://www.arsenal.com/news/news-archive/ramsey-in-great-britain-olympic-squad
Don’t know if this is great news (gives him match time) or bad news (no proper pre-season with the Arsenal)
No Gibbs despite the rumours though.
No Arsenal and no Euros, it’s quite dead here.
Tour de France maybe?
It’s enough to send you back to Twitter, eh Ollie? π
Go on Wiggins!!!
No JC @ Arsenal next year either, so it seems. On loan to Real Betis.
all according to arseblog news.
Cover drive – four!
147 Ollie.
Tour de France?
If I want to watch a bunch of sweaty guys in tight T shirts and biker shorts who are clearly on drugs then I’ll go to a rave in Amsterdam. π
Heh, no zico.
Mr C, who is ‘JC’? It’s all right to sometimes use initials for main players, but if you’re going to use them for fringe players…
First one that came to me was James Campbell but he’s just been released.
Oh get it maybe Joel of the same name then?
Oh, and Nice One Mark Cavendish too!
Nice landmark, Dr Z. Elegantly played… as opposed to the elegantly plaid Dapper DanC π
Well you’re in the mother country of cyclists, H2H.
I am indeed, the new cafe here is on an intersection of five of the most popular cycle routes in West Friesland, every Sunday morning at 10 o clock the bar fills up with those peanut butters who all want coffee and apple tart. Sissys. π
Heh H2H,
Thought the only healthy option you sold was tomato juice, prohibited to be served in isolation π
And the Dutch wouldn’t be so bloody keen to cycle if they lived on my hill…..
Ollie, JC is Joel Campbell, no?
Confirmed by Twitter, Ollie π
heh zico
Wenger to Eurosport: βwe want to keep @Persie_Official at all costs, because we depend on him offensivelyβ¦β
Looks like Le Guen is now favourite for the France job.
I’d rather we keep the player than the twitter account, Snir.
I very much doubt ArsΓ¨ne formulated it like that π
Heh Ollie, was just thinking the same.
When the players start to have their e-mail address or website on the back of their shirts is the day that we’ll know it’s all gone Pete Tong.
“Pete Tong” – that got me thinking:
Why is there no Cockney Rhyme term for “Cockney Rhyme” itself? π
I like AWΒ΄s other quote, about how he has stuck with RVP through the bad times….. nothing like a little pressure….
Lars, there is, it’s rabbit.
Rabbit goes well with thyme in general, true.
Joel Campbell confirms loan to Real Betis and says “itΒ΄s the best league in the world”.
Hmm… chances of ever playing for us diminishing??
Is that something he said on twitter, perchance?
Is Ollie G in da house?
How soon do we get to start making the rounds in Malaysia, Nigeria and assorted other exotic locales? I need to start planning my wardrobe. π

“The official βholic random number generator will be fired up then and the three lucky winners will be announced in a post on Tuesday evening.”
The suspense is building …
I’ve heard of summer time exciting in my time, but can’t say I’ve ever quite experienced it on this level. π
Had a friends 50th Birthday Bash here in the bar tonight.
I feel great now…………..
Tomorrow a bolik will be covering half of North Holland, Lowlands consider yourself warned.
After the Euros, drinking has come down considerably in the bar.
*Pours himself a morning drink*
John Cross, Snir, another one who should be banned.
Tis very quiet indeed, Harsha.
Harsha,
Some of as are self-medicating, now that the silly season has arrived a.k.a. the transfer window
Morning all. Coffee or bloody Mary?? Or both?
175 Ollie, indeed
I unfollowed him on twitter a good while ago
Just had coffee so bloody Mary will have to do, Dr C.
It wasn’t so much for the John Crossness of the article, it was more for PHW’s quotes.
Although some people would say his quotes should be banned as well π
Is Ollie (not) G in da house?
Harsha, Ollie, me too.
Just after he linked Spain winning the Euros to being an amazing season for Chelsea, as they had two goal scorers!!
Bizarre and a little nauseating.
BM a la H2H on the bar for you Ollie. IΒ΄ll join you…
Morning Dr.C
Can I have a bloody coffee please?
Is that an adaptation of your 169, TS? :O
Just a little continuation, Ollie.
…and good morning!
The Big Football Lull is finally upon us….
TS
One bloody coffee coming right up.
Is it Friday?? π
I wish, Dr C….
I’ll have me one of those BM’s.
Reports of a major bolik early this morning were like a Vela chip (a bit wide of the mark). For some reason my head doesn’t feel like there’s a pikey living in it. Must admit that I do still feel a bit tipsy though.
Result!
Phone’s gone off for repair again π₯
No Handheld Twitter or Facebook but most gutted for less Goonerholic π
Arsenal and RvP representatives are to have “crunch” talks.
Why are these discussions/negotiations always referred to as “crunch” talks?
It conjures up images of rutting stags, and I would worry that Ivan has been provided with the appropriate headgear, him being short of natural protection in that department.
H2H – cut out the middleman. Stay drunk. 8)
Zico, I do believe that last bit is emblazened on my family crest.
Heh – a bit disappointed to hear it isn’t tattooed on your chest!
This might cheer some up:
On Saturday, the first pre-season game is only one week away!
I see Myles has gone into full racial meltdown this morning.
Good to be reminded that a blend of bigotry and stupidity existed long before Le Groan started their shite.
Tatoo’s not my thing Z’
Plus I spent all my money on beer, loose women and partying.
The rest I just wasted. π
Tattoos’* H2H π
Lobs it over John Terry into the Box π
Lurks
On account of the confession by H2H (post #197 refers) it is clear that he has the necessary credentials to be invited on to the Executive of the Happy Train.
I shall suggest to Feelgood, Edwin et al to discuss at the next Board meeting, scheduled for 18th August.
Attending in person would help your case H2H π
Ah Wind you mean like this;
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/8/81/HerveVillechaize.jpg
And another goal for H2H.
If only Holland had had this chap to play for them.
old, I’ve stopped reading Myles’ drivel some time ago, but I’m not surprised. Remember the bit about Djourou’s foul throw?
*removes speech from breast pocket
I’m truly honoured to be considered for such an esteamed position and promiss to continue my drunkerd, sluty, party hearty exploits to the best of my waining abilities.
Unfortunatly the board meeting on the 18th may be a little to early for me, however I am not a Silent Stan type, so will be in attendance at the soonest possible date.
I’m an easily recognisable chap, I’ll be the one spralled horizontally under a tollie brolly.
Crunch talks Dr.z???
To me, it conjures up the image of a cosy breakfast meeting between RVP, Arsene and Ivan over a bowl of muesli.
I’m here all week….
Make sure that Feelgood and Prof Edwin send any interviewees along to The Quackery for a FULL medical. π
TS @184. – π
No need for a medical, I’ve already donatated my body to science.
They gave it back.
I am the most important person in the world.
I know everything. EVERYTHING.
I pretend to be an Arsenal supporter even though I am an avid Tottenham fan.
But enough about that, you can read more in the books I am desperately trying to flog that are about Arsene Wenger, a man I have never met but pretend to know in person.
Each and every one of my blogs contain a few words about Arsenal to keep up the pretence that this web site is about football and not Myles Palmer.
That is a disgrace. Ivan Gazidis is clearly trying to destroy me.
Just like I said to [random namedrop of semi-famous person] when I met him in 1984 and he asked for my autograph on a piece of paper with the words “Voluntary Restraining Order” at the top. Even then I knew what Gazidis was up to.
And the worst thing is that you are all letting this happen to our dear Tott… I mean Arsenal.
Fans of this so-called club must wake up. Arsene Wenger is destroying the tradition of English football by teaching his players such despicable things as “passing the ball”, “skills” and “not drinking ’til 3AM the day before a game”.
Just look at Oxlade-Chamberlain. Not once has he been arrested by the police. He clearly has no passion for the English game.
Scandalous, I tell you. Utterly scandalous.
Heh @ 207
Also,
Iβll be the one spralled horizontally under a tollie brolly.
Dr Disorder WILL be pleased……
Heh @ 208..
All this talk of crunch talks, reminds me of a scene from the movie Casino when Joe Pesci’s charachter, Nicky, has a guys head in a vice…..
I bet he’d sign the fucking contract sharpish.
zico@209: how would Dr Disorder know? For him to be please would have mean him not being sprawled out under a table himself…
heh 208.
As for crunch talks:

One for Arshavin.
So….we already knew nearly a month ago about AVB’s mum new job, right?
Looks like it’s official. ‘Andrea Villas Boas’ is a bit too long, AVB too short?
We’ll have to be clever about that chant.
Ollie, just go with “And Villas-Boas mother is…”, same number of syllables.
Let’s hope for a flop of a Juande Ramosesque proportions, but unfortunatley I think he’ll do rather well with them.
That will do indeed, Lars, thanks!
With Aaron Ramsey being called up for the Olympic squad, I was just wondering what our start-of-season midfield options might be.
Jack is out, Ramsey at Olympics, Rosicky Achilles (poss out), Diaby ??, Arteta ended the season out with a knee injury, BennyGoon has gone, Frimpong still injured ??, Walcott’s hamstrings are twangier than Hank Marvin’s guitar.
Does anyone have any knowledge on any of the above ?
I’ll be honest, I know the contexts are completely different, but I’m no more scared of Boas doing well at the Scum as I was of him doing well at Cuntski.
I’ll let you guess if that is much or not.
Trev, Ramsey will be back when the league starts but other than that it seems we are potentially awfully short on players there.
Maybe we’ll hang on to Arshavin and play him centrally. If he’s motivated we could do worse ?
It would be good fun to see Arshavin lining up next to Giroud at 6′ 3″ !
Diaby?
The lesser-spotted midfielder has been masquerading as Sebastien Frey for the last few seasons…..
heh @208
You tosser! π
Not too bothered about Aston Villa Boss, he’s done the square root of fuck all in his time in England.
But given his track record the LWCs might be looking at a prolonged Yourhopeless League run next term.
FIOS.
‘If heβs motivated’, Trev 220, can I point to this major flaw in your argument? π
Lars @ 211
Jagerbombers convention π
Not really arguing for him, Ollie. Just wondering what we’ll do if all those players really are injured.
I could see us hanging onto him, maybe for 6 months until the longer term injury situation is a bit clearer. And IF he was motivated in his favourite position he could provide good service for our new ‘power’ front line.
Time to release the Ox in midfield., think he’d be pretty decent in the creative roll and should be better for his experiences from last season and the Euros, we’ve also still got Mr Myachi, who’s had a couple of decent loan spells.
Afternoon All ,
So Villas-Boas’ is a Liar eh ?
How he’ll do is a tricky one to forecast. I think it’s an imaginative appointment, and given time, he might do well. However, given Tottenham’s track record, they will probably sack him before the season’s out. Without Modric and Adebaywhore, Totts face a tricky start to the season . If he has a bad start , it could all go horribly wrong for him pretty quickly.
Anyway, I realise that the appointment of a new Spurs manager demands an emotional rather than a considered response, so that’s the last even remotely praiseworthy words from me heading in that cunt’s direction – the cunt !
*applauds tabs*
To Booass doin’ for s***s what he did for chelski
Given Tottnum’s relentless pursuit of The Special Cunt (so I’ve heard), it’s fair to say that Villas Boas is a poor man’s Special Cunt.
AL, what does Leg Rash think of AVB? π
To AVB,
I wish him every success.
Being a duplicitous bastard, that amounts to the square root of feck all!
LW(P)C.
Heh at all above.
So, when is he off to the capital of Italy for an audience with the leader of the Roman Catholic church.?
And I wonder what said Leader will say, H2H.
I believe it will be something along the lines of – Fornacation Away, Ollie.
LeG: Well you’ve gotta hand it to FuckinUselessShittenHam from Shit Cunt Lane – at least they employ English managers (that’s NOT racist THATS FACT!, that is) that know what the English premier league is all about (that’s NOT racist either that’s FACT!!, to).
IF (a big IF, I know) you’re Juany Foreigner and you don’t know the lingo or the league how you gonna win the fukkin thing??!?
Why O Why O Why O Why can’t we be more like sp*rs in that R.E.S.P.C.E.T. and do what they’ve done and THINK ENGLISH an’ all. Even if the soppy cunt is from the Midlands.
LeG’ore (Rash’s arse-licking, under-paid, under-valued, dimwitted underling/assassasssissstant): Errr, Rash – i don’t think an English manager has ever won the premier league ever, ever, ever – which is quite a long time by anyone’s standards, I’d say.
LeG: (Even MORE FURIOUS than his default setting of SUPER-FUKKIN-FURIOUS!!!!!!). Don’t be fukkin stupid – STUPID!!! What do you fukkin know you dopey fukkin fuck??? That’s borderline fukkin racist fukkin bullshit that is. The sort of fukwitted, spite-filled fukkin ignorance that there’s no fukkin room for whatsofukkinever in my fukkin world!!!!!!!!!!!! Get me my fukkin gun (even IF, a big IF I know – I haven’t got one) – ‘cos I’m gonna fukkin’ shoot yer – and put us both fukkin out of your fukkin misery, you useless, pointless, useless CUNT !!!!!!!!!!!!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Always the voice of reason.
That nut LeG Rash, always the voice of raisin….
LegRash – Haha , usual brilliance π π
Cheers Ollie .
LeGRash tells it like it is!
pffffttt! An opinionated knobhead who thinks way toooo much of himself and what he’s got to say if you ask me
Now I know.
Psed – hats orf Ollie for “the poor man’s special cunt’
Classic LegRash π
AL: Just fired up the old computer and the first thing I see is this:
“An opinionated knobhead who thinks way toooo much of himself and what heβs got to say…”
Before I back drink I need your assurance that you were not referring to me old chap..
π
@ 208
ha ha ha ha! Perfect parody.
@ LeGRash
ha ha ha
How long to proper football now?
AL: I see you were dissing the venerable LeGrash. Stop it!! Final warning. He’s showing the kind of pre-season form that makes me think that he’ll have a monster season. I for one am looking forward to that..
