So, Valencia have just been smashed 7-0 by Barcelona, with Suarez scoring four and Messi three. I wonder at what point the Valencia board give Neville the Spanish Archer, because as it stands he looks completely out of his depth. I wonder whether it will have any effect on the Man United board with Giggs as well, because I think people simply don't realise that being a good player or pundit is not the same as being a good manager. I like Neville, but he is getting battered from pillar to post in Spain.

YOU like Neville?!?!  You ought to be fuckin' ashamed of yourself young man, where are your loyalties? *stands on a chair to look down on him* you sicken me :lol:

Like is perhaps a little strong! Let's just say that I was pleasantly surprised at him as a pundit; not half as awful as I thought he'd be and he is actually surprisingly neutral.

Pundits are rarely good managers. Most people that sit on BBC couches that worked in football were disastrous, same with SKY.

For those unaware :P. That 7-0 was just the first leg of their Spanish Cup tie. If you fancy becoming a billionaire, I'm sure you can you put down a £1 bet on Neville turning it around with an 8-0 comeback next week...

Wait... starting to think that this Leicester City being top, because everything else is playing badly thing might not just be a thing after all.

They're 5 points clear in the final 3rd of the season. Normally would expect a team to fall apart at this point, but maybe not.

I lived just two minutes from Highbury for a while; walked past it hundreds of times.

My souls burns with envy.  It's eating itself right now.  Went a fair few times.  My ambition at the moment is to get a gaff near The Emirates and live there til i die.  Where did you live, Benwell Road or something?

This'll sound really weird, but I can't remember! It was one of the dingy estates though; come out of Highbury and Islington and walk straight down the road, past the shops and there's an estate on the right. Long story short, but an old school friend of mine was having some mental problems, so I agreed to move in with him to give him a bit of stability for a few months whilst his family worked out the best course of action. It was his flat and he basically shut his family out of everything and stated to spiral out of control, so I came along like Florence fucking Nightingale.

You were the best fuckin' person they could come up with to rein him in, fuck me, he must've been a right mentalist :lol:  When was it?  Anywhere around 89 by any chance? :D  ithink i know where you mean, that little road you nip down as a shortcut to The Emirates.

Thank fuck for that, was thinking God dont let him be younger AND cleverer than me :lol:. I bet you're my brothers age, he was born in 80, you got the same horrible sense of humour as his generation :lol:

Same age as your brother, yeah. Still, raised on the same shit as you, generally speaking.

Talking of shit, what are your thoughts on Mourinho going to Man United?

A fuckin wanker for a bunch of wankers the way i see it.  Used to like him but this second time around he had way too much to say about The Arsenal.
