Being 1st on MOTD2 is a sign of progress.
Missed us as I expected us to be last again: couldn't believe that That Liverpool v Manure Game was instead!

Being first on MOTD means:

1) the ‘top 6’ didn’t do a lot televisually, and,

2) Our kid, Emi/Dibu, World Number 1 GK, went nuts and upset an opposing player. 👍🌟

Credit where it's due, the analysis last night was perfectly reasonable. No hand wringing or histrionics about the player behaviour and the ridiculing of both our keeper and that other idiot was pitched perfectly, they were to be laughed at for their antics. And the defence of Watkins was great, his reaction wasn't extreme and players do have the right to respond. When we gave Wright abuse and he made that gesture with his hand up his shirt I think most people respected him for it, there was no outrage I seem to recall.

And the decision to feature our game was correct, it had the most incidents and therefore was the most entertaining.

The twat from robotwars on commentary was a bit over the top. He’s such a terrible commentator.

I quite like Pearce, but he does look like a man who's suffering from the ravages of alcohol. I wish him well.

I find him extremely irritating and he was hysterical at the end and even cheered when Kamara was sent off.

I thought the summary from Wright and Shearer was excellent and I’ll miss Ian Wright at the end of season. He’s a nice man and gets being a supporter. He’s completely biased towards Arsenal, but I don’t mind that.

"The most outrageous law not just football but all law "
His epitaph to football punditry




He was joking. Not exactly one of Wilde's, but exaggerating for effect.

I would argue he was sulking and just spouting hyperbole. He just always pretty much over-reacts to Arsenal matches as shown with his clenched fist punch at the start of the studio segment last night after their highlights. Any other team and he is about the same as any other ex-footballer on there, occasionally states something profound but mostly bland.

Since when did people "take turns" in having a job?

I don't like [insert name]. You shouldn't like him either and he should never work again and he hates us and he is the worst thing ever. If only there was some way I could avoid him or rise above it, but he exists solely to attack me and all I hold dear and there's nothing I can do about it.

Why must life be so unfair?

Given his replacement will inevitably be Jenas, I reckon leave him where he is.

Jenas will lose his voice week 2 and be sidelined for the ret of his contract (whilst still drawing full wage).

It's not a job share if someone is moved on surely?

It’s not a ‘job’ if somebody is a “self-employed consultant”.
