Anyone but Messi...

Good career move, his image needs a bit of roughening up round the edges. Now Theo needs to be caught importing bootleg cigarettes or something.

Years of hard touring during the wild days of the new romantics have taken their toll on Shearer. Gone is the bouffant hairdo and ruffled shirt - these days he earns a living as a barber in Folkestone, admitting that he's seldom recognised by fans.

no idea if this is real but it's fun to retweet it apparently. People will be IA at IA for his FUIUD approach to LS.

avb's being royally tapped up by psg atm

Ismael Klata, Thursday, 13 June 2013 08:49 (thirteen years ago)

Rightly so.

posters who have figured how to priv (darraghmac), Thursday, 13 June 2013 08:51 (thirteen years ago)

if they got 40m for suarez and can ditch carroll for 15m, added to whatever the budget originally was, they'd have a serious warchest for rodgers to squander invest in quality young talent. that'd be a huge amount of cash, in the right hands you'd have to say they could set the squad up for a few seasons to come. crucial summer.

this is a bit of a shock

Fuck off. Literally the only thing i get for the fee ye cunts.

posters who have figured how to priv (darraghmac), Thursday, 13 June 2013 09:23 (thirteen years ago)

I only really watch the Champions League coverage tbh

Number None, Thursday, 13 June 2013 09:26 (thirteen years ago)

Jeez commiserations guys. Never seen it but it inspired some fine posts.

Ismael Klata, Thursday, 13 June 2013 09:32 (thirteen years ago)

most of the posts were about the CL coverage. Dunphy doesn't really appear on the Premier League show

Number None, Thursday, 13 June 2013 09:34 (thirteen years ago)

nice to see that RTE insiders don't consider Tottenham one of the big clubs

Ismael Klata, Thursday, 13 June 2013 09:51 (thirteen years ago)

Aston Villa have signed Leandro Bacuna, midfielder from FC Groningen.

Le Bateau Ivre, Thursday, 13 June 2013 15:57 (thirteen years ago)

That's all you've got on him?

Ismael Klata, Thursday, 13 June 2013 16:40 (thirteen years ago)

A Dutch friend on twitter gave me this snapshot of Bacuna yesterday:

"Homegrown, young but experienced, allrounder (can also be a disadvantage), attacking midfielder, talent, might struggle mentally."

Should fit right in.

EZ Snappin, Thursday, 13 June 2013 16:42 (thirteen years ago)

yeah now that dunphy's left it, the only thing RTE's PL coverage had going for it was that you could see the goals earlier before MOTD. its no wonder RTE keeps on grizzled old vets like Dunphy and Giles on when the likes of boring Kenny Cunningham are waiting in the wings.....richard sadlier is decent tho

Old Boy In Network (Michael B), Thursday, 13 June 2013 19:27 (thirteen years ago)

Yeah im gettin over it, tho it's fair to compare it to motd rather than cl rte coverage, and its miles ahead of the former. Sadlier is excellent but isnt the craic the aul boys are.

posters who have figured how to priv (darraghmac), Thursday, 13 June 2013 19:30 (thirteen years ago)

Ha! Now I know why darragh suddenly starts spewing random 'decent hit tbf's and 'cunt ref's about 8 o'clock every Saturday evening.

Ismael Klata, Thursday, 13 June 2013 19:32 (thirteen years ago)

Heung-Min Son has gone to Leverkusen.

Spurs' offer of €18m for Guerin apparently rejected.

хуто-хуторянка (ShariVari), Thursday, 13 June 2013 19:33 (thirteen years ago)

Spurs now turn their attention to Radja Nainggolan, a name I would love to hear said all the time.

mizzell, Thursday, 13 June 2013 19:40 (thirteen years ago)

Think AVB is just working his way through the wiki stub for "Belgian footballers". Xp

Celtic have a new Balde. He has Big potential.

no man is an islam (onimo), Thursday, 13 June 2013 20:27 (thirteen years ago)

This is the guy who was being all sniffy about you a couple of weeks back, no? I read that Palace were in the process of gazumping you, I'd've thought he'd biting their hands off tbh.

Ismael Klata, Thursday, 13 June 2013 20:29 (thirteen years ago)

Only quote I saw was something along the lines of "if Celtic sell Hooper and buy me the fans be will saying 'Gary who?'" which didn't endear him to anyone.

no man is an islam (onimo), Thursday, 13 June 2013 20:32 (thirteen years ago)

IK, I think EZ's pal p much nailed about Bacuna. Though I'm not sure he's good enough for Villa (yet)

Le Bateau Ivre, Thursday, 13 June 2013 20:34 (thirteen years ago)

Bacuna Toil

If he plays with a happy-go-lucky air bacuna matata

if he provides catering to a contract killing, bacuna burger

Ismael Klata, Thursday, 13 June 2013 21:18 (thirteen years ago)

If he leaves after 6 months, bacuna split

OMG Royston Drenthe is going to Reading!

Will miss his keek.com films about finding a rastafarian barber and buying a telly for his aunt in Vladikavkaz

Le Bateau Ivre, Friday, 14 June 2013 10:12 (thirteen years ago)

Hope in the medical at Reading it comes up that Drenthe is addicted to smoking shisha pens, and that he will bite your head off if you dare insinuate it might not be very healthy for you.

In possibly the most boring transfer news ever, John Obi Mikel has apparently agreed to join Galatasaray

Number None, Friday, 14 June 2013 13:35 (thirteen years ago)

wonder if united put a sell-on in there

r|t|c, Friday, 14 June 2013 14:12 (thirteen years ago)

i seem to not be bored by that transfer anyhow, fairly unexpected imo

guess he never really won jose over. weird player really

nice that he still gets to hear the cl music though

r|t|c, Friday, 14 June 2013 14:19 (thirteen years ago)

Pellegrini has officially gone to City
