I don't understand how the web works as a business, but I can't see how no one else would be interested in buying TWP after NBCU decided to put it on the market. Daily Candy, sure, wgaf...but TWP is a treasure.

true enough about mollycoddling, idk tribal self-mythologising nonsense probably but i've long felt there to be an interesting frisson whenever a top bloke geezer comes under the fannying aegis of the kewpie platonic poodle kennel. and now austin is becoming a hybrid fancyman

plus look no further than former petty thug karl henry now a responsible asthmatic piano playing chessmaster with a penchant for orlebar brown swimwear

thought occurred during wolves birmingham and reminiscing about blues ledges of the mid 90s who i could never tell apart but were thoroughly of the grim piece - grainger, devlin, tait, legg... all unthinkable in a hoops shirt

like hill and derry are the types who anywhere else would do their two year bid or month's loan and become a footnote, here as ott realness darlings we clasped them to our bosom for 5 years until their ears fell off and button eyes came unsewn

underrated little. effort this

not a footcelsior as such but thanks to r|t|c for ensuring that the phrase eurostep past a hater like ian woan will no doubt stay with me for a long while

also i think i posted this at the end of the world cup thread once before but it belongs here also, and saves darragh the task of posting it himself

poor old kuyt y'day, first half patrolled the wing with no shade, then 2nd half LVG had him swap wings so he was doing it again!

holy shit

you saw that at the time im sure

oh i see

hi guys

for the last year and for the first time in my life at thirty whatever (seven i think) ive been involved in a sports team, a load of struggling dept ed penpushers of varying experience and silhouette togging out once a month or more under floodlights against lads with coaches and clipboards and a ref looking on and shaking his head at us

we havent won yet but we havent given up yet. our goalie would rather be our striker, our striker would rather be anywhere else, our best player has forty years done and is likely running down his contract and we're only taking it too seriously in the ten mins before and after when tge blood's up.

highlights include:

- the ref blowing up ten mins early against the prison service and refusing to divulge the score

- getting a man sent off for running away from a fight against the fire service (and being let back on out of pity ten mins later)

- holding justice to a two goal win and running to the bench celebrating as they looked on nonplussed

- our bruiser (seconded to defence since, unrelated) launching into a legbreaker against dept health and the victim berating him while prone with "dyou fuckin know how long the ambulance will leave me waiting once they know who i work for?"

its been a joyous experience, almost totally positive without the pressure of performance or competitiveness and while i wish id done it years ago i think maybe the magic is coming from the maturity in actually enjoying the participation and the camaraderie and all the things that wouldve been and sounded like placatory cant back when we were young enough to care.

are ye sporting yerselves and isnt it great
