Only 7 players you say? Well, let's have a look at them.

One is James Maddison, who plays for Leicester and they're in the bottom 3. Another is Michael Olise, Palace.

Couple of players on one less than Robertson. Solly March and Jack Harrison, both from Leeds, both in the relegation zone.

He might get some assists but he's absolute **** defensively and his ego is outperforming his form. Sentimentality contract extension incoming.

Is there anybody or anything that you actually like?

... Robertson... might get some assists but he's absolute **** defensively and his ego is outperforming his form. Sentimentality contract extension incoming.

It is amazing how differently people can see the same player, because I too am miles away from you on this.

Wife's sister passed away yesterday and today I got out of the car at a busy set of lights and threatened to beat the **** out of the bloke in the car behind.

So, no. Not at the moment.

Sorry to hear that fella. I know we chatted in private before, but I had not realised that things had moved along that quickly.

Words are kind of meaningless now I know, but I hope all three of in your family are doing as well as can be in such a crap moment and that the rest of her family have support too.

Let rip in the library or chat chat forum if starting a thread there helps in any way, or chat in private if you want to get stuff off your chest.


And if you do not want to chat to anyone here or to any friends but still do not want to onload to family either, then please take a look at a few help lines because they are really good and judgement free. The total stranger route often can be the easiest.

Take it easy mate sorry for your loss.

Footy inconsequential compared to such massive life events.

Thanks chaps. Tomorrow is another day

Maybe he's just really sentimental & nostalgic like some EST posters and loves a good cry

Yep his good mates Millie & Bobby leaving suddenly hit home

They're not dead ffs

[Doc_Piptorious]

They're not dead ffs

No but he would suddenly go from seeing them on a daily basis and hanging out with them locally after work to them living much further away within the UK or maybe even in another country.


Was going to say it is a human thing but even cows have pals they prefer to hang with in the herd, so not sure where you rank in the animal kingdom with your lack of empathy towards poor aul Tsimi.

He just doesn’t get it does he. Poor old Timmy will be the next turd that won’t flush for Dan now that the No 1 whipping boy is on his way out the door.

I think you might be onto something there. Poor Dan feels like he is a floater, the unflushable turd of EST if you will, and ends up projecting those feeling onto defenseless multi millionaire footballers.

Think about it. Keita and Chamberlain are perma crocks and so is Dan with his back. Poor guy has a bath tub in his front garden in which he takes ice baths for cripes sake.

We need to show more consideration around Dan and be more inclusive to folk with his many many conditions. After all there is room in this world for the Timmys as well as the Tsimis.


Does not help Dan when he has to exist around wonderful examples of humanity like you and I, SB.

Too many supporters take a champ manager view on football and assume that real life football is an extension of. Players are stat based commodities. Sell this one and replace with that one, you get, better stats. The short means nothing if you don’t connect with those wearing it.

So… **** that.

Whilst evolution and succession are going to happen I don’t see the need to celebrate it, and do see the need to support the actual guys that represent the club. It’s why the match day experience (either on TV or real life) is so different to the forum based one) you don’t get the same excitement logging into a forum for a load of 40 plus blokes trying to outdo each other with faux insight and pithy commentary. Yes, there is still frustration but it is more organic.

It’s why the romance and nostalgia is ultimately so important in protecting the game.

It’s why tears when a player leaves shows that at least somewhere the game and follow him a team still means something.

Buzzo, say something positive to Dan. We need to make this forum feel more inclusive to the fecal community members amongst us.



Now go away and think of something nice to add to your post


I will start even though Dan went after the women's game in the general footy forum.



Dan is a fairly regular human being.




See? It is that easy to say something nice, Buzzo.
