Don't talk poo love. So we're all racist then? Well let me go and get my burning cross and rope, that'll teach Benni. .

Was he looking at a picture of the Walker brothers (as in Fred and Jack, not the band).

Can we have a decnt striker that stays for more than one season? Having said that, I expect Man Utd to go for a 'bigger' player, someone like Villa, Luca Toni or that Dutch bloke called Hunter or something who plays for Ajax.

McClaren was on a sticky wicket as soon as he was appointed. He was 3rd or 4th choice, the fans didn't want him, and his managerial record screamed mediocrity. When you have one of Europe's brightest coaches (Hiddink), and a World Cup winning coach (Scolari) both being linked, and then saying no, a manager whose club has been bumbling around in 14th/15th place for years seems a real let down. The only way he could have succeeded was to win every game, and make the players play with a panache and style hiterto unrealised. The players have played a part in this mess, as they are too busy with their flash cars and exrutiating autobiographies to try and develop their game, and improve themselves. But the manager should always have the ability to shake that out of their players.

Smith has always been overated. As for Benni to the Red Satanists, I doubt it. They'd want a big name star like Torres, or Villa rather than someone who can be a bit lazy at times. And don't mention release clauses again.

Rover6 for England!

I've invigilated at his former school-Mark Rutherford Upper. Its a right dump, and the kids were real scrotes. Princess Francesca Lampard should get a bad wrist for the next game as well, as Gerrard seemed to show flashes of what he can do with him cramping his style.

The Alan Partridge Kate Bush medley from 1999

Read 'Persian Fire' by Tom Holland. It is one of the best history books I've read, and it will give a good account of how the war started, the importance of Thermopylae and so on. The book also describes Spartans of both genders as 'anally proficient'. Fruity.

we need someone who can: A. Mould a team and use decent tactics B. Motivate players, and tell them to sharpen up, or else they will be a former international (i.e. burst a few egos) If there is another Brian Clough out there, please make yourself known, as the pathetic excuses for men that wear the white shirt need you. The likes of Pussy Lampard, Cashley 'the wardrobe hermit' Cole and Steven '5 good games a season' Gerrard need to be frightened into playing to the maximum of their potential. They need to know they have to work for their wages, to achieve more than a huge bank balance in order to gain respect and recognition for what they have done. Just because they have the bling, it doesn't mean they are worth £1 or a minute of the public's time. McClaren isn't the right type of person to break down the arrogance of the English players, which is fatal, as he has no tactical skill either. He should go. Now. P.S. A Bentley should be on the pitch, not in the Wembley car park.

I should imagine that is right to an extent, but would you rather a man who stand up and be counted and be able to defend your honour, or be rather filing their nails and watching desperate housewives? Or to put it another way, Martin Corry, the Burgomasco brothers, or David Beckham and Christiano Ronaldo? But I digress, Bentley played well, although his move to the left side was an error. Good to see him take over the set pieces from the utterly crap Richardson. Routledge did nothing, and England were desperate defensively.

Yeah, but Italians are a bit metrosexual really aren't they? Would you want a man who spends more time getting ready than you?

Yeah I agree Theno, but we were quite 'industrial' in that semi final. Any team that has a high work rate, and strong physical presence gets labelled 'dirty' unless they're Chelsea, in which case the likes of John Terry, Carvalho andEssien can do what they like. I bet our 'dirty' tag has cost us a few red and yellow cards over the past couple of seasons. I've probably said this already, but I hate Wenger. He is a baby and a hypocrite. His whining because we dared to defend at The Emirates because of injuries, and his constant references to us as bullies are very grating indeed. Yes we were dirty in that semi final, but we hadn't the players to play beautiful football, but to re-enforce that view is harmful to Blackburn. And anyway Mr. ######, how many red cards have your team had since you came here? about 60? And didn't that nobend Bergkamp assault Nissa Johansson in two games and get away with it?

I can imagine...........how high were they when you met them?

"And here we are, in Soho with it all to play for, with the inititive with the plumber. He has got to grips with the situation and is forcing his opponent's back to the wall. But wait a minute, he has let his concentration slip and the homoner is dribbling all over the place..........and ooh that was a hard tackle from behind."

Benni does seem to be a more interested version of Dwight Yorke when the latter was here. Maybe a new striker or a midfielder who can provide more service will galvanise him next season.

For me it all stems from a game against Villa when Hodgson was manager. Stefan Henchoz does a foul that may have warranted a sending off in the first half with the score at 1-0 to us, and Green then proceeds to bitch endlessly about that decision, whilst we wallop them 4-0 or 5-0. Every time Henchoz touched the ball the moaning Mick gripes that he shouldn't be there, and even when the play is far away from Stefan Green goes on and on about how the game may have been different if Henchoz did get sent off. He is just one of those nobs who thinks that just because he speaks his mind constantly, it makes him some sort of 'man of the people' or whatever.

I'd say all of them except the radio 5 people apart from that whinging turd Alan Green. John Motson is one of the worst, with his senile witterings. He is like Rainman with the stats, but I really don't give a crap about how many goals Rooney has scored by converting a cross with his bell end.

Thanks, I thought Simon might have been an uncle or something. Odd really as both play for Rovers, and are strikers.

Now I know this has probably been asked many times, 100 of which by me, but are they related?

For any half man half biscuit fans.

Carragher has been poor whenever he plays for England. Now he's plying at left back, or at least fighting Phil Neville for that slot. What a dumb c_nt McLoser is, I mean Barry is dropped, and Warnock has as much chance of a place as me. I hope we draw with Andorra.

Only just moved to Palace. Do we get a % of the fee?

I'd pick Ashley Ward ahead of either. He was a grafter, working hard for the team. None of this poncing about and trying to back heel it into the net. And he had the most important thing the the beautiful game: passion.
