Summer transfer, gossip, speculation and the usual butter ollocks thread

[eamonn]

If there was any exploiting going on, she was the one doing it.  She only got the job at Blues because her dad was a major advertiser with the Dildo Twins.

she fell out with him big time , would not let him see the grandkids , we dealt with him on his commercial print company at the time and he asked us to try and find out what school they went to .  We were like sorry we cant do that ! 

That's quite sad.

I always had her down as a Crass fan.

So what ?

So What was the Anti-Nowhere League not Crass.

You're all wrong, So What was written and first recorded by Miles Davis.

Because she is a woman we are not allowed to Take the piss, if she was a man he would be fair game.
Double standards or PC gone nuts?

Neither - can take the piss just avoid the misogyny.

Exactly. And by 'misogyny' we mean 'thinking being a woman is something to be made fun of.'

It seems to mean you can not make fun of a woman.
If you enjoy taking offence then carry on.

Congratulations on missing the point by as much as it's ever possible for a point to be missed.

Well obviously I was talking about the CD compilation by ANWL

But if you will sleep with the players in your own team.

If true I'm sure she isn't the first woman to sleep with one of her employees. Just ask Arlene Foster.

It is true, she ended up marrying him.

She was cut a certain amount of slack because her presence was highly unusual in such a male dominated area of business but then it got into the realms of fantasy about how successful she was. But if you have to protect your own children from the abuse you're getting from the fans of the club you run and still be considered a success then she's an absolute fuckin' genius.

I'm guessing he means the other, more "alleged" one.

Please say it was Sammy Wilson.

[Jon Crofts]

I was always of the view her appointment by the Dildo Twins at The Sty was some appallingly ill judged move to eventually see her appointed manager, a real world Cheri Lunghi if you will. Highlight of her time there has to be her arrest along with the Dildo Twins for tax fraud.

This has sent me down a particularly unpleasant rabbit hole.

Never heard it called that. Although as euphemisms go I've heard worse.

It’s like I’ve slipped into a parallel universe. Talk of misogyny and Arlene Foster...

In the meantime, away from whatever the heck has been discussed for the last few pages, it sounds like Benrahma to West Ham is a done deal. I would have loved him but 2 things...

1/ if we wanted him, we’d have surely bidded for him.
2/ if it’s true he didn’t want to leave London, then I guess it was inevitable that we wouldn’t stand a chance. As a speculative bet to be a success, I hear his wage demands were very overstated anyway.

So... are we done for this window then? Can I stop scanning Twitter? Is Rashica locked in a cupboard with Lange’s smile being played through the door?

If so, it’s been a good window for us.
