Nor me

I read a different account of the TC23 stuff, as something he did after a handful of appearances when he was injured.

http://therepublikofmancunia.com/index.php?s=tc23

Trivial fluff really, playing for them and an inflated sense of worth is nothing new.

As for the player himself, I've thought the last couple of years that maybe he's been played too deep.
He's an attacking midfielder asked to keep it simple play next to Michael Carrick and do his best Nicky Butt impression.

Further forward with less defensive responsibility he might be decent.

welcome to B6 Tom. Make up for being a complete knob and play your heart out. All will be forgotten if you prove yourself.

I can't see it on the Twitter page yet.

What is the story with the TC23 thing? Amongst all the cafuffle I missed it. You will probably make me hate the little fucker even more but do tell...

Hate? Really?

it's ridiculous to hate any footballer. Are some of them knobs, self centred, childish etc? Absolutely. Unless they have done something illegal or truly vile I don't see how the word hate ever comes into it.

I hate John Terry. And Alan Pardew. However, I believe it is illegal to not hate them.

Agree on John Terry. He falls into the vile category. Alan Pardew, I just want to smash the smirk of his face. There's not hate there as such just a desire to keep pouding on his face. Not sure how to define that feeling.

He's definitely got a very punchable face, I'd like to repeatedly rub Terry's face with a sizeable cheese grater, well beyond the skin peeling stage.

I think the key difference with Terry and - to a lesser extend - Pardew is that distaste, or even "hate", for them goes well beyond the realm of football. If John Terry was a singer rather than a player with the same sort of history, he'd still be hated by some people.

Same with Pardew. Although I am prepared to admit "having a shit-eating grin and being a c***" aren't really convincing motives to go as far as hating someone.

The word just gets thrown about meaninglessly these days. I don't really hate Steve Hodge*, for example. Just like when I say "I'll kill him when I see him" when angry about someone, I am not really going to be killing anyone**.



* I do, really.
** Except Steve Hodge.

like Bono ?

Which Pardew incidents have riled people so much?  I think he's a tad smug and clearly loves himself but I generally do not notice him.
Does it date back to his playing days?

I'm not sure what it says about Cleverley, Man United, England or Villa but I never thought I'd be so underwhelmed at an England International joining us from Manchester United.

John Terry would be in Skrewdriver.

I want to know what the TransferDildo thinks of the TC23 loan move.

Nope. All just his face.

We're collecting ex England players, Bent, Cole, Richardson, Gabby, Cleverley

I saw yesterday Jack Colback is in the England squad.

On the numbers involved (35 England qualified players actually playing in a PL game week I saw at one point last season), surely it can only be a matter of time before "not actually being a footballer" won't be a big enough obstacle to getting picked for England.

We'll start picking singers, or actors. Or even characters from fiction.

How old is Adrian Mole these days?

Does anyone know where Brown Fox, Fulchester United's large breasted red indian winger, is playing these days?

'Shit eating grin' has just become my phrase of the day, maybe even the week.

"When you have been stuck in some of the places I've been, TC23 should be grateful it's AVFC he's going to!"

Gary Barlow and Jason Orange have been called into the England squad for the friendly with Norway.
