I know it's only so much unedifying tabloid fluff, but fuck me, Rebekah Vardy's lawyer must be hard-pressed not to laugh in her face. Poor Jamie will be playing til 60 just to pay her legal bills.

More styled than a ketwig, I would suggest. Tom Davies’ nickname when he started out was the Ketwig Kaiser, there’s a bit less of the kaiser now.

I’ve just been in the pub , and can’t believe this thread isn’t hyper active with the news that Jim Ratcliffe - INEOS - now wants to buy ( spit ) Chelsea …. !
Wowsers …..

Cool. Anyway.

Super interesting night tonight in the relegation battle of the Scottish Championship. Hope Dunfermline pull it out the bag….

I thought their sportswashing oil-baron owner was being forced to sell the club?

He’s got a new car out soon. Imagine this is something of a PR opportunity. Cannot for one minute believe he couldn’t have submitted a serious bid prior to the deadline, with his ‘British bid for a British club’ rhetoric.

‘British bid for a British club’ rhetoric.

Sounds perfect for Chelsea, given their fans affinity for the National Front.

Burnley doing their bit to make the end of the season as entertaining as possible

Everton really cant afford to go down, could be devastating for them. 6th highest wage bill, 8th largest net spend over last 10 years across all of Europe.

mini raiola definitely dead now
he'll miss out on the haaland commission, bet he's gutted

Weird one. Guy was a massive cunt yet still a guy who had friends and family.

Anyway. Leeds are shit.

I had a ticket for Watford today, tested positive for COVID this morning and had to watch on my sofa.

I was broadly in the “it would be bad if Everton were relegated” camp, and then they hired Lampard and I went straight into the “it would be hilarious if Everton were relegated” camp

ah shit news re covid. but hopefully you don't suffer too much and those last 8 minutes help with the healing

that's a very popular camp right now.

my massive soft spot for everton has definitely hardened since he arrived.

The fact that Everton fans were meant to be close to not turning up if Lampard wasn’t appointed is hilarious. Wonder how Graham (RIP) is taking this ?

yep I hear you. I want to message Graham. But will let the effects of the inevitable bleach cocktails subside for him first before I do.

Haha must be more bleach than man by now

he always was

Are you referring to the founder of this thread?

Selvedge Levis/bleach/toffees.

Yep

Banned from here. Silly things said. Not actually the man but was consistent and misplaced. Not actually him-kind off

I have noticed his absence for a while. I have never asked why, and have no desire to know.

I would love to hear a 3 minute tirade of a sound bite on the Everton situation from him though. I am sure it would be top lols.

It would be sweary, maybe @jonny could give an update.
