Yes I had a very prolific first couple of years about two decades ago then found a lot of other interesting things to do other than living on a messageboard. But hey, you do you, I'm not kinkshaming at all

Well I think that’s because unlike you, this site doesn’t constitute my entire waking life. I must have written it about 20 years ago and have not thought about it since. My quote at the side there Project for a New American Century is also about two decades old. But I’m glad for you this...

Steele’s were at the business end of the season when the real pressure comes on. But “we got away with him in goal” apparently with a clean sheet at the Emirates while ending Arsenal’s title hopes 🙄

Just the way they do the playoffs in Conf South, the team finishing highest in the regular season gets a reward. All easier to organise too I expect

It’s perfect that the final is at home this year after the tonking at Oxford last season. They must start marginal favourites - great work after losing Hinshelwood

Am wondering if Kluivert finished off his chances at the end there

I’d say yes it’s a coincidence. It would be pretty dreadful if he had such an eggshell personality that he would react in that way after not being picked in one game, he’d have no business working as a top keeper. But it’s not relevant

Indeed - perhaps we might have got away with it for one transfer window, but two has seen the dam burst. It was always coming if you take so much talent out of the squad and don’t replace it.

No, if you are saying signing 2 or 3 players would have imperilled the finances of the club, the burden of the proof is on you to prove that, not on me. What we do know from information in the public domain is the financial position of the club is very, very healthy. I didn’t say the club...

20 year beef - you win Mr Normal Online poster of the day, congrats!

The anti Steele contingent would have blamed him for all 3 goals today, in truth I think Bart was only at fault for the first where he looked a bit leaden footed. The third is always a tough one to judge because while it was near him and potentially savable, it was also hit like a bullet. I...

Sure, you can write all that down but it might not be true. Is Pep going to make a still raw and underdeveloped Buonanotte a Prem match winner. I mean, obviously not

Yes I think he’s got more stomach for the fight than those calling for his head

Well said hopefully the second group will calm down a bit, it’s a dispiriting experience watching the Albion right now but driving a good manager out of the club may not actually make it any better

I resent these all or nothing arguments, either you are a delusional fan or a sensible, long-term fan. We all know what kind of club we are. The real argument is much smaller scale than these all or nothing’s - should the club have provided RDZ with a few more prem-ready players to forestall...
