Um! I think i get what you mean….. they aren’t bothered but they say something (which of course means they aren’t bothered) But it rattles others cages and of course…makes them look bothered – but they are not.
Exactly, and that’s what this thread’s starting to look like. Some folk claim to be bored by the saga but drag it up from time to…[Read more]

Fair enough, Rainny. But I was talking about those who claim not to be bothered and as such claim that everyone else is bothered. Because they don’t care. How does that work?

I think they only make an appearance when it suits. It’s funny, I was called ‘gullible’ etc by almost everyone (who insisted they knew me better than I knew myself) when we had the ‘Kategate’ scandal yet it seems that it’s other users that are still obsessed and can’t let it go.
This is another of those ‘you’re boring us all now, I’m not even…[Read more]

JohnBoy25 replied to the topic what music are you in the mood for?? in the board Off topic chat 16 years, 9 months ago
Loved that ever since I first heard it at primary school Esme, never heard it with words though. I assumed it was just music.
Always in the mood for Nirvana, but I love the Amy Lee acoustic version of Heart Shaped Box:

Very kind sharon, but I think this is one I’ll stay out of purely because – WTF is actually happening here? :lol:

True, but there’s always an official & an unofficial line to these things. They’re hardly going to come out and say ‘We don’t want the hooligan elements of Rangers & Chelsea meeting up and running riot in packs’ but that surely must have came into the thinking pattern at some point.
First thing that came to my mind when I saw it on Sky Sports…

I may be guilty of having blue tinted glasses from time to time and I do get a bit p***sed off when people tarnish not just every fan but the entire country by certain events but there’s no way that can be condoned. I read that about the big screens next week as well, maybe they’re concerned about the links between Rangers & Chelsea or maybe…[Read more]

Couldn’t agree more. Like I said, I work with CCTV and have seen things like that first hand and it’s even more sickening(and quite frightening) to watch when you don’t know what the outcome is going to be.
I have a feeling that they’ll probably try and pin the blame on Manchester in some way, neanderthals like that never take responsibility for…[Read more]

You might have a point if you weren’t so hypocritical.

For once, I agree with the heavy handed approach – we’ve seen it a few times recently and sometimes I think it’s a bit OTT but not this time. Nobody wants to see innocent fans getting beaten for being in the wrong place at the wrong time but we all know where to point the finger on this occasion.
What choice did they have? Some of the images were…[Read more]

I’m not sure that counts as an appropriate use, but if I say ‘f**k you too’ then it balances it out and as such makes it harmless fun :lol:

Just seen some of the footage from the city centre last night and it’s appaling. I work with CCTV and have seen some pretty sickening stuff but nothing on that level. There’s no excuse for that sort of behaviour and the actions of that couple of hundred or so will be what our reputation is based on and what the trip will be remembered for.

Just saw this on Sky Sports News and I’m stunned. I was expecting to hear about last night’s events in Manchester but can’t tell you how shocked I was when this flashed up. I thought he was on the way back from this latest battle, very sad especially at such a young age.
A man who I’ve really come to admire for his dignity over the past few years.
