Liverpool are awful

Is Steve Gibson still funding the losses up there?

Surely that can’t go on forever? Now he has well and truly got fuck all to show from 20 years backing. 

A league cup win and UEFA cup final. 

What a shit hobby

He is, think he's getting grief himself for lack of signings which is mental considering the tens of millions he'll have put in over time.

Totally thankless task this, struggled and struggled to get back into PL then had Karanka trying to turgidly defend their way to survival and failed, now they've got Pulis.

What a state football is in.

Jules said it last night. Football is eating itself.

He must kicking on ED levels of money chucked in.

Probably at or past the stage where some sort of radical changes to the professional game are needed. Anything from looking at salaries, distribution of money, power of agents, league structure, European tournaments, Super Leagues, clubs stockpiling players that don't have a hope of turning out for them, shite facilities, prices of tickets, football becoming more of a TV program than a spectator sport...

Rafts of problems. Where does it lead?

Delighted for Newport, 2 quality wins now another pay day v city. Made a few bob over the last couple of years. Never mind Accy being the club that wouldn’t die, these have done a fine job at rising from the dead

Coyles fault for playing chungy against what was then little more than a pub team, horrendous management by Coyle.

Make him play for us for the rest of the season.

Crikey, the chairman of the discipline committee would need to put his black hanky on his head as he handed down that punishment.

Think I might back City to score 5 or more in the next round. Mind you, they'll be playing on a mud heap so maybe that will help keep the score down a bit. Big payday again for Newport though. Made a million quid with their last FA Cup run I heard. Must be immense for a club like that.

 

Have to say looking at that pitch and those packed stands, it felt like real football again.

I'd be happy if Talksport was just Simon Jordan and Adam Catterall. A couple of gems amongst a pile shite

Must be way past that stage. They were chucking £7m at Ravanelli a decade before ED pitched up. 

Good job he’s not a Bolton fan

 Bugger. You beat me to it. Half empty or more.

Maybe they should stick with the minnow v pike matches.

Couldn’t really have cared less who wins this but now Tyrone Wanker Mears is playing, I’m a Brighton fan for this

I had to check to see if it was him!

Had an 18 injury career, interspersed with some football games, many of which were a bit shit. A lucky man.

I've never understood that criticism.  Since when did first team players not take part in pre season friendlies? It wasn't a Bolton XI, it was the first team squad trying to get match fit for the new season.

There's a few things to have a go at Coyle for but that ain't one of em!

Aye, it's a long, long way down a long, long list

What a weird goal that was.

Fucking awful game in front of a 4 figure crowd, romance of the cup!

Full house at Barcelona for a Cup Semi vs Real Madrid. Cracking end to end game currently 1 - 1 on 88'

A few chances but a poor affair.

Based on this, WBA would struggle a bit if they went up next season.

Is it merely a coincidence that 2 posters have their 61st birthday today?
