Try and be original you've already been beaten to the punch on that one. Nice to see supporters of the real Manchester club on the forum now.

Oh course the alternative view is that if you know you can't tackle as long as you have a hole in your bottom, which is the case with Scholes, then you shouldn't try to tackle cos the chances are you will fail, catch someone, and either get carded or sent off, so the fact you already know this smacks of intent everytime he makes a daft attempt at a tackle. Ask Reyes if he thinks Scholes is a nice clean player.

Not at all, we gave them Adebayor, which I think was very nice of us (mind the ?25Mill was nice to). Your trouble is you're so cynical, I'm a nice likeable sort when you get to know me.

Irony certainly didn't make it to Salford, or Trafford Business Park. And the next one please.

Cheers Atila, I doubt you would have said that if I was here in September- Lovely goal by Ade in the 79th min !

And we shall see what is said next Thursday when we dump you out of the League Cup !

Surprised with that as after losing first 7 (with a threadbare team) they looked to be bouncing back. 7 points from their last 6 league games is a better return than Rafa at Liverpool. But that's football isn't it.


Maybe he has been ousted for Avram Grant who did a good job down at Chelsea.

She's fed up with this thread. Think I was the last straw for her, when I took exception to her post, and she took exception to my reply. What can I say, the girl supports her team right to her heart, good luck to her :)-D


Wish she'd come back though, and wish I'd never discussed footy with her, as it's more or less the only thing that we disagreed on.


Come back if you're reading!!!!!

    • No, just no.  Zero tolerance does not mean we expect zero crime but that we do not accept a standard level as normal and unavoidable. For those who have suffered such “minor” crimes, myself included having had my house broken into,  it is clear from the lack of action that they are considered “acceptable”’. Once small crimes become known to be ignored, it changes where and how we live.     
    • Lloyd Weber and Cilla Black were supposed to leave when Blair got in, but didn't
    • You can't have zero tolerance unless you live in a fascist/police state.  Sadly it is something you have to accept in a democracy.  There has always been crime, even in North Korea, the Soviet bloc, Nazi Germany, Cambodia under the Khmer Rouge etc.   The discussion point is how big a police force we need and capabilities, punishment, and building communities.  And how much we are prepared to pay in extra taxation. Even in the good (economic) times there is crime.  And crime under both Labour and Tory governments. I do not accept that phone thefts and parcel thefts are just statistics.  Police have to prioritise what they do, we might not agree with it.  And most criminals are multi-tasking, moving to where the best return is considering the risk of being caught. And there has to be a market, someone somewhere needs to buy a stolen product (I never buy off Gumtree). A starting point would be to decriminalise all illegal drugs, but that is definitely for a separate Lounge conversation, interesting discussion paper here: https://kar.kent.ac.uk/105520/1/A. Stevens - In defence of the decriminalisation of drug possession in the uk - PPDF.pdf Did you watch any of the series of Peaky Blinders?  This was a very popular series that glorified gang crime and violence.  Funny (ironic) that may enjoy films and TV that does this.  Although only the first series had any historical accuracy in it,  Criminal gangs were around before and ever since.    
    • Ah the oldest cliche in the book   ”I would leave if…”   but you wouldn’t leave if farage was prime minister ?
