It's like trench warfare, but slightly less fun.

Lions bored shitless by dogs that can't count.

Ha ha!

Bear in mind that this is a War of Attrition. At least WW1 lasted only 4 years.

I really want to know if that black ops team have reached the Captain's high command yet to put us out of our misery.

Actually WWI is probably a duff comparison.

As the trench warfare aspect of that fiasco was at best a 0-0 bore draw.

This episode is boring, I grant you that. But what recent skirmish or dispute can you think of where one side just refuses to acknowledge reality to the point that they become a joke?

I can't think of one. But this guy probably can:




"Take my word for it, Tottingham's wage bill is higher and they've spent double the amount Aston Villa have on transfers."
