Back to the flirtation lounge with you Snuffy,footie and flirting CAN NOT ever be mixed I dont know,a woman can't go anywhere without a bloke trying to pull her

Just read your post in the controversial nominations Cuffy,I hope you are not taking it easy on me being a Man Utd fan because Im a girlie

Just one more thing to say,and that is COME ON ENGLAND.Think the sun may set on Japan tonight I'll be in my local watching the match tonight.

Well, freddyvjason you've probably heard the news now; our glorious leader has at last been put out of his misery.

Apparently finishing 2nd in the league and Semi-finalists in the Champions League just insn'f good enough these days.

As for Lewes, yeah, not bad - nice pubs.

Its strange that you can do well and stiil get fired these days,I think its a shame.
He was a great manager and there was no need to fire him.
I know that when I go to see my mate at the weekend that we will be talking a lot about it as he is a big Chelsea fan.

Certainly not, Freddy! I was just demonstrating how uncontroversial this thread was. If City and Utd fans don't row, it must be dull!

It may have been the worst kept secret in footie, but it is still a sickener. To do that well, and still find yourself out of a job.

Despite his best efforts to put it out of his mind, Ranieri had to live with that, while Chelsea were competing in the Champions League semis. You do wonder whether that could have caused him to make the wrong decisions.

Thats ok Cuffy,I just hate it when Im treated with kid gloves over footie just for being a girlie This thread isn't dull(well ok,theres no footie hooligoons yet )its cool to have somewhere to hang out and talk footie.

Im really looking forward to Euro 2004 now me and my boss have come to an agreement that I cover his day shifts for him(his idea,as he wants to get sleep then run the bar later)so that means I get to watch every game.


I've tried to watch American football MrScuzzles,but you are right.It makes no sense to me.

Yay!!!




I've got 20 quid on this thread ....

Like why they call it 'football' for a start?

You're right Cuffy, can't have helped!!

It makes no sense to basically scuttle our own chances by messing with the manager's head like that.

Mr. Ranieri behaved with grace and dignity throughout the whole drawn out mess and deserves a club that will appreciate him as much as the Chelsea fans did.

But I dont see war here,hope I dont see anything like that in Euro 2004.Unless its on the pitch over the ball

Think you are wishing too hard Kismit,we footie fans are not as bad as the press make us out to be.Most of us are for the game not arguements(honest )

Is it ok for a MOD to try to influence the way that the voting goes

With the thread going so nice and friendly and it being my only nomination , I have to give it all the push I can .....

After all I could really use that 20 quid

Three things to remember Kismit about us on the footie thread

1)We all love football,it is a beautiful game

2)The papers got it wrong about us being thugs,we are not all like that and so far I havn't come across any.

3)The most important point here is we all love you and would not want you to get in the middle of a fight.So for your sake we are on our best behievour

Sorry it looks like you might lose that 20 quid(not that Im taking you up on it )
Hope that doesn't upset you too much

Hmmmmm..... what if I said 'Go! Manchester City ..


No really, back to the football topic and enjoy , before the fans start to get unrully ..

I'd say thay Cuffy will love you more than the rest of us

On to more important things.

What does everyone think of Chelsea's new manager?
I know Jose Mourinho got Porto some silverware this season but what do the fans think?

Yup. It worked for me. *hugs Kismit*


As for Senor Mourinho, Freddy, I hope the Chelsea board treat him better than Claudio Ranieri, who's amazing composure earned him fans way beyond Stamford Bridge.

Well, I for one have been impressed by his aggresive arrival; he has pretty much declared war on the rest of the Premiership, if the papers are to be belived this morning.

He certainly is cut from a different cloth to Mr. C.W.

I loved the fact that Ranieri always praised the opposition, never criticised the refs and was always humble.

Our new man seems far more arrogant, but maybe we need that; when you look at the likes of Wenger and Fergie, they are very different from Ranieri, so maybe that's what we need?

All I say is that he better win something this season or he maybe back on the market sooner than he thinks.

They call it football because one team has to kick-off the ball in order for the game to start.

Pele is no William Perry!

For those of you who don't know who Perry is, he was, and is, The Fridge from Da Bears.

Makes sense now, thank you for enlightening us!

Once again, thank you. Your input has been invaluable.

For the first part, I was only trying to explain to the people that didn't know that maybe that was one of the reasons why it was called football. And the second part was just a comment. So I don't know if you were being sarcastic or what, but that was all I was trying to say.

Ah, I was only pulling your leg, mate.

Meet me outside

Damn, busted

They're quite ruff looking I have to admit (hopes no gorgeous Chelsea girl is reading this)

Casuals? Wow, not heard that phrase down south since the 80's; do the firms north of the border still call themselves casuals?

It's great at the Bridge these days, mate, you can take the kids and have a great day out, although I just go with my bro and get a few beers in

Bring it on big fella

I can see this one running for a while

Oh aye still casuals, but theyre isnt any casuals with rangers and celtic.

No the hatred between our two is much more than that.

You should see the wee pub me an ma tes drink in before the celtic games lol.

Only problem is its a total republican recruitin gorund and totally ant-crown.

Im not into that sh** but you cant get a drink near parkhead without that kinda stuff.

Its same for rangers an the anti irish and republican thing near ibrox.

Total nightmare

All I can say is there are no ruff Man Utd (female)fans here,well I can only speak for myself.

So Kismit may win her 20 quid yet

Must admit,I can't stand Rangers either.

What about Cricket...Tennis?

Ya, I have the worst sarcasm recognition ever.

Snooker and pool are another two you missed Moe.

Well after Wunard's unprovoked attack on my boys, I am going to side with Rangers this season and mock him every Monday morning.

I am also going to search the whole of the Bridge after our first home game and find the sexiest lady available (if poss), set him up with her and then get her to stand him up!!!!!

HA HA have you seen rangers recently, theyre mince.

AN no sexy lady would stand me up.

These are but extended versions of " neanderthal hit ball with stick."

Hey Stamford,
my best mates going to Chelsea's first home game next season.
She georgous and if you asked her nicely enough,Im sure she would stand Wunard up for you.

Really looking forward to Euro 2004,our first game is a week today!

LOL i bet she wouldnt stand me up.

Just wait till she hears ma glaswegian accent, lol. shed not be able to resist.

How hot is she?

This is so depressin

On a rating of 10,the guys that I know have rated her a whopping 10 +

She came to stay with me one time,when we went into my local to meet my mates the lads in there could not stop from drooling

It's like Knotts Landing, without the big hair.

*tries to remember which actress played a character called Iceland...*

I can't remember either, but I bet she was popular!!!!
