I dedicate this thread to B.A Alex, who inspired me with his "end of an era" thread.It seems that most people just want a place for their football related stuff so I thought if you can,t beat em,join em .
I feel that their is not enough in depth and thought provoking analysis on this subject so to get the ball moving I have some questions about football and footballers staying with our homegrown ones for a while although I fully expect the debate to spread to other nationalities ,it is after all a world game .
So to begin ,its 2006 and 40 years ago England were world champions ,what has happened in those four decades? There has been no shortage of home grown talent that were considered world class players ,and the current generation are no exception ,but lets be honest the farce in Germany was something I,m sure we all want to forget.Do you think they give value for money? The amount of money young Rooney is going to make by the time he is 30 is just staggering,with that kind of financial security are people like him hungry enough to win when those from poorer countries have nothing to lose and everything to gain by playing that bit harder ,is that why we lose?
No debate about footballers would be complete with out including the company they keep ,yeah I mean the WAGS, what a bunch of parianas,I fail to see what Wayne sees in that chav ,but he,s not the best looking bloke in the world .
Anyway that will do for starters,just opened the door a bit ,we can talk about the game itself and the fans later ,thats you guys by the way.O.K. Ollie that wasn't too bad was it see you can be nice to people if you try ,ok,ok, stop shaking,you deserve a drink .

I think we all just concluded that its not just "men" who are interested in football there are kids and their mothers too ,and these kind of issues don't get raised or answered because its just a match fixture bullitin board,so I raised some genuine questions,do you have the intelligence or balls to answer them ?

I just hope Ollie doesn't teach writing.

I hope you two aren't in public relations !
BTW,Entrailicus,that picture idea sounds good I can show it to my students ,might keep quiet,tell them "you could end up like this sad man" .Thanks for the reply,B.A not what I expected,but any response will do ,now be a star and answer the op.

Nice try Ollie,but I think the gang of three will not like you interferring on their turf as your not a die in the wool real ale drinking registered footie fanatic.If they were sincere about providing a service for the wider forum football fans than they could at least give this thread a chance ,sadly I think it will be starved of posts and slide off the front page rapidly ,they will do anything to keep that thread going, its got nothing to do with the game itself,just their own self esteem .

Hey ,Entrailicus,is that really you ?So young and normal looking ,if I showed my students that there would be quite a lot of obsession going on ,wonder what ollie would think ?
B.A, sorry, your right 100% I must get on an anger management course its all this pms we get you see.
I wish I could get the hang of the quote function so I could dissect that last post and throw it back at you piece by piece ,but you know what, I can't be arsed! I'm willing to call a truce if you can reduce your condescending tone. Nuff said . Pax.
And hey ,just for the record I don't like cornflakes .

I think Vinnie Jones made a smart move to get out before he got badly hurt or someone else did because of him ,he really was a hard man ,wonder how Rooney would cope with him?

Hmmm, so there are rumours about the LA galaxy being interested in Becks. So Becks goes out there, gets all the contacts, invites his mate Wayne out, he makes contacts..... and becomes the next big Hollywood star. frightening innit?

The next big blockbuster out of Hollywood

I don't know if you've seen "Goal" (It's actually a really good film, but I'm biased as it's set in Newcastle).

Anyway, Becks makes a cameo in that and oh God, it's cringe-worthy.

kodak, you have confused me. Are you a Geordie Leeds fan? why should you be biased towards Newcastle?......(asks the Edinburgh Rangers man.)
