Upside Down

Just received mine yesterday and can confirm it is excellent.

What can be done when you actually give a fuck.

May as well do it now. Personally I think the game is shit and boring with more than 3 substitutions. 'Competitive' games now are essentially just glorified friendlies.

Nobody who has any shred of intelligence comes out with this stuff. Just brainless venky bots.

Agreed, with the exception of a number 9 and number 10 because they both played as part of a front 2 (oohhh how uncouth), numbers were never used to describe a players position. At least not that I can remember. It's now become en vogue to use numbers for every possible position on the pitch. The people who have brought on this trend just look like a bunch of complete clowns though because 1. They use the wrong numbers for the wrong position. 2. Show me a team in the last 20 years that lined up 1-11. 3. If you want to say defensive midfielder, just fucking say defensive midfielder! You're not clever because you have coined some bullshit term for something that's existed for 150+ years, you're just a twat. 4. In years gone by teams were far more rigid in their setup so you could expect to see the guy wearing number 4 to be a defensive mid, the guy wearing number 5 to be a centre back, 7 & 11 on the wing etc but football hasn't been like that since the early 2000s at the very latest. Formations change, player's roles change and the tactics have changed, a lot. Remember when Jose gave a central defender the number 9 jersey? If 6 was 9 eh.

Pep ball is like hoof ball without the excitement.

More commission to be had with one player in and one player out.

The date for the venky era is wrong. We were infected with them in 2010 and symptoms starting showing almost immediately. It is very important to emphasize how everything was going great right until we contracted the venky virus. November 2010 is when Blackburn Rovers ceased to exist and venky FC was born.

Wrong.

That article just confirms this. He categorically states that the river was not the issue, says that both the pitch and drainage are old and that the surface can't handle the rain. As with all of the problems faced, the club and owners are 100% to blame. Yes, 77mm of rain is a lot, but the technology and knowledge exists to be able to find a solution to this issue. Rovers are a multi million pound business supposedly owned by supposed billionaires so this should be a simple thing to deal with given that hosting football matches is quite important for a fucking football club. I haven't been in Blackburn for over 12 years but it is my understanding that there's been a huge amount of development happening around the area in the time I've been away. In short, thia means more hard surfaces discharging more water. I also gather that much of the consent for these developments has been attained with a brown envelope so I doubt there's very little if any requirements for stormwater management to prevent the local rivers from being swamped during heavy rain events. Granted, the club doesn't have much control over this but given their economic clout in the local area alone, they should be able to work with the council to find a solution to resolve or lessen the effect this issue has on the club. Factor in the climate change effect and this is only going to get worse. The location of Ewood Park means this is something that will affect Rovers so a proactive approach needs to be taken. Again, should be an easy ask for supposed billionaires that supposedly own a football club. Not to worry, I'm sure all their lies will solve the problems.

But just like with the women's team, people who have half a function braincell in their head could see that deliberately relegating the team was a bad idea. No hindsight necessary.

Never a shortage of twists and turns™ on this message board.

So what game did you go to then?

How many clubs have had their ownership deliberately relegate them out of the Premier League and then repeatedly & deliberately sabotage any chances of them ever getting back there? I can only think of 1 example.

The two teams with the two shittest ownerships are at the very bottom of the list. Who'd have thought, eh And yes, venkys are far worse than Chansiri by some order of magnitude.

Jesus Christ I have never seen such a lack of self awareness in my life.

The club to be put up for sale.

No assumptions to make here, he will be.

If they didn't want to then they wouldn't have done it.

Coming to a football club near you.....

Comission is comission at the end of the day.

In all fairness, employing Russell Martin to be anything other than a bog cleaner should result in a custodial sentence.
