Re: [Merged] Football talk
What part of 'shove off' does Glazier not understand?

Re: [Merged] Football talk
I'd have anyone at Forest than Doughnut, including Glazer.

Re: [Merged] Football talk
yesterday I was watching the Wales v England rugby match...
the ref in that match was a youngish former player who knew the game, unlike footbal,l as they are in most matches.. he got most of the decisions right as they usually do despite rugby being a more complicated game.. he was even treated with respect by every player..
when he made a decision the other team didn't surround him and chase him all over the pitch..
at one point he sent 2 players off and each of them just stood there said nothing and listened to him then walked off.. there was no 5 mins of swearing and arguing that you get in football.. maybe the FA should talk to the iRB and RFU and find out how they can get it so right and football can get it so wrong

So what, he's rich and the football biz is what you have a director of football or ex-players on the board for. Do you lot have Charlton on the board still?
If you lot don't want Glazer tell him there's a club called Nottingham Forest that have won the European Cup the same number of times as United and have been mismanaged off the field for about ten years and whose fans would appreciate him...

He may be rich, but his first attempt to takeover Utd would have actually left Utd in debt. Not the sort of thing that the fans want is it? Doesn't really inspire confidence...

yes, and if he bases his prediction on success i would not give him a chance, we dont need loans to run the club!

i know, i know, but he seems to think putting the club in to debt is the best way to go, and for the fact that his sucess over the pond was greeted with raised ticket prices

Whatever you say, he's still a successful businessman and has a track record.
As I said, I'd LOVE him to buy Doughnut out of Forest, the guy has NO IDEA how to run a football club and is slowly asset-stripping the club.
It's been rumoured as part of the Reid/Dawson deal Spurs have to pay 2-3m if we go down. Down we go then...

Great save by James to deny Lampard!!!
Without Robben, Chelski look very shakey.....could this be the beginning of a bad run?...we shall see!
Looks like they are also becomming a bunch of moaners when decisions go against them....welcome to the big time!
