Term-X

I'm surprised by Rooney's vanity, he's a multi millionaire footballer... It simply doesn't matter in his case. "What would you be if you weren't a footballer?" "A virgin" - Peter Crouch

cfc-meleady.. are you accepting everyone’s youth player name requests? Because I haven’t received one this month.

For anyone interested, The Brian Clough documentary 'The greatest manager england never had' is on BBC2 at 11:45pm. It was released back in 2009 in conjunction with the movie 'the damned united', but it's worth watching for any english football fan who hasn't seen it.

Would Hughes accept an assistant role though...

Yea, fair enough, I see your point. It will forever be just speculation though. Nobody knows the inner workings of the chelsea hierarchy, especially not the papers.

You say it's all if's & but's, but you yourself have just indulged in an 'if & but', lmao. So you've contradicted your own argument.

Be that as it may. Hiddink was in an advisory role when we were looking for his replacement in 2009. And he publicly backed Ancelotti in the papers when he was appointed. So 'if' he recommended Carlo's sacking, he essentially made a mistake recommending him in the first place.

Carlo Ancelotti was appointed on Hiddink’s recommendation, considering he's been an advisor for 2 years and even backed Carlo publicly when he was appointed. So it makes no difference if he’s DOF or not, in that sense.

On second thoughts, this looks too much like a benfica home shirt. Forest would look good as an adidas original team again...

Nice.. Not sure about the collar and the stripes on the socks, apart from that it's another nice & simple umbro kit.

Great post. Saying things like 'let the roman empire fall’ and calling him a ‘villain’ lacks sense when you don't know the circumstances or the reasons for the sacking, especially surrounding the Wilkins fiasco, Roman is not alone here.

Nice.. Lmao, at liverpool fans saying Suarez is better.. how long has he been there, 2 seconds? The way (a majority) of liverpool fans treat former players.. smh No class.

This should be criteria number 1 for any potential mod. That, and... has to be a hip hop fan.

Sounds good. I'll be in Amsterdam for the pre-season, I'll post the occasional update during the game via blackberry.

In a recent ranking of the 50 greatest european club sides, by the football pantheon. The Chelsea 2004/07 side reached 38 place, ranked above the Liverpool 1985-90 & Bayern Munich 1984-90 sides. Ajax 1965-73 won with a total of 1575 points. Followed by Real Madrid 1953-60, Liverpool 1975-84 & Barcelona 2008-11.

Poor choices, Henrique & BLionheart have been overlooked here. I voted for Jim, since I joined the forum in 2009, the site has looked great and it's been improving ever since.

We've been discussing this here. No need for an entire new thread.
