[Football] The Official Big Sam thread

[Herr Tubthumper]

So, last week he was stated he was up there with Pep and Klopp.

Then he said he was merely “diversifying off the players onto myself” and anyone who criticized him “sounded a bit thick”

This week his “diversifying” back onto the players by saying this weekend they “cannot afford to lose” against Newcastle.

What happens when they lose?

Yours, a bit thick

Herr Tubthumper.

Now that we can't really catch Newcastle and would obviously get immense enjoyment from seeing Leeds relegated, you can bet your arse Leeds win this.

I hope so because I really want Everton to go down. Newcastle aren’t nailed on top 4 yet either and it would be absolutely hilarious if they blew it now.

It's classic bullshitter stuff.

"Oh all those things I said? Nah mate, bantz, and you fell for it! Hah! Idiots"

"Classic Big Sam (TM)" was the verdict on somewhere-or-other ahead of the Man City game - comes in, talks about himself a lot and takes all the pressure away from his players and everyone else is then focused on Big Sam (TM) not his side.

I guess that is broadly was has happened, although whether it is by clever design or merely because he's a big, fat, arrogant wanker is anybody's guess.

Either way, it’s the worth of boast worlds.

My life is better the less Big Sam (TM) there is in it. Uncle Sam’s, yes, Big Mac at a push.

I dislike Big Sam almost as much as I dislike Leeds, which is A LOT!

I did think Squire’s take on the whole thing was particularly funny this week…
