    We briefly had a similar song about Reda Johnson until he basically tweeted that everyone should shut the fuck up. Also threatened to shit in the mouth of a reporter talking about how injury prone he was, I miss him.

    Will be funny to see who Potter leaves out of the CL squad for the knockouts. They can only register 3 new players so if they sign anyone else somebody is missing out.

    They fixed that about two years ago.

    We signed Luis Diaz having played against him in our group and he was fine to play.

    I'd just bin someone pointless like the back up keeper. If Mendy gets injured then it's banter centreback in goal time. This generations John Oshea.

    That's certainly my take on it, and as a Leeds fan too. I just think it's a bit odd. It doesn't even fit in well with the rest of the chant, it's just shoe-horned in there.

    There's something increasingly cringe-worthy about football chant culture lately (the last few years) to me anyway. A lot of it seems to be largely driven by little drips who mobilise on social media to make them up, so they can in turn stand around filming each other singing their new creations on the terraces to post back on social media for likes from the same contingent. Sort of a never ending loop of self satisfaction for the "banter" crowd. See also - "limbs", and everything that goes along with all that.

    Now obviously I'm not saying I don't want new chants to appear for new players or people to enjoy celebrating a goal. I don't know what I mean really. I'm maybe just being a miserable cunt. I suppose a lot of the organic nature just seems to have gone out of it.

    I know there's nothing original, and plagiarism comes from all-corners, but every club having to have their own version of Allez Allez Allez [Arsenal latest culprits at Brighton the other week] is very tiresome.

    Come up with your own songs [I appreciate that one was lifted from Porto or wherever].

    So it turns out that the whole Evertons board received credible threats thing was completely made up. That'll endear them to the fans.

    I love how Darren Ferguson appears to be entirely unable to escape the pull of Peterborough's gravitational field. Forever doomed to be a legend unable to successfully traverse the 2nd/3rd tier boundary.

    I thought you meant Duncan Ferguson for a second. He's due a third caretaker stint.

    Everyone loses control of their limbs in a very spontaneous way that's not contrived at all, maybe something gets thrown in the air due to the sheer unadulterated and captured on camera emotion of it all. When you're watching ballers, limbs aren't far away

    Social media is crap. Actual limbs is great which is basically celebrating because you've scored a last minute winner not because you're recording and want to show everyone how you were there.

    Wolves have signed Sarabia who ive saw a few games play here and there for PSG. Looks average. Will do a job of keeping Wolves in the league.

    To be fair they said on Football Weekly their chief exec was put in a headlock when she left the director's box after the Brighton game

    What is the specific criticism of Moshiri/Kenwright, other than 'the team aren't playing very well'? I've never managed to glean this information from the months/years of media reporting.

    I think from what I can gather in between the seething it's that although they have spent a lot of money they have pissed it away on shite and that there is no joined up thinking between recruitment of players and hiring of managers of which they have gone through a lot in the last few years.

    When was the last time they signed anyone who seemed like a good buy despite their fairly large spend? Remember when the bought three 10s in the same window.

    I thought Doucouré would have been decent for them.

    Him and Allan seemed like a decent starting point for the team but it all seems to have gone wrong. Is Allan even there anymore?

    I think the specific criticism of Kenwright, who is largely powerless in reality, is that he let the biggest bunch of tits in because they flattered his ego and promised to let him keep poncing around, where as more serious parties (who, nobody knows) would have elbowed him out.

    My Everton supporting colleague told me someone told him Big Dunc was prepped to take over whilst he was on the pec deck the other day. Not sure what tier source scouse gyms are.

    So basically it’s Everton fans indirectly criticising the players because, in their words, the board recklessly spunked a load of money on them but when it comes to actually protesting about it, they have spun it as themselves plus players plus Super Frank versus The Board.

    Batshit cunts.

    All you have to do is turn up to Goodison Park, say red and white shites a few times and then continuously boo for the rest of your time there.

    I'm alright with most of that. Goe Jomez is never going to go well as a CB.

    I do feel Gakpo is being thrown in the deep end a bit. From watching him, he's going to need that 6 months to get to grips with the physicality of it. Seems a bit lightweight for now.
    I'd have loved Doak to start.
