You used to be quiet nasty, these days you appear more reasonable in your posts.

But, to me, you seem to be following me around to pick on anything where I go overboard.

There are plenty of posters saying some really nasty personal stuff at other BBSers on these boards - funnily, I dont see you weighing in then.

But if I make a throwaway comment on someones packed lunch habits, you are all over it like a rash.

Do I have a reason to feel concerned? You are either baiting me or think I am an insufferable prick that needs to be brought to task. I can accept either, but not some wishywashy excuse that is not you.

You could take a step back and ask yourself why you’re letting the opinion of such people upset or bother you in any way?

If they’re hard wired to support their high profile Chilean in whatever team he plays for, I wouldn’t invest much time/energy in trying to change their perception. They might even entrench further to counter your efforts!

They’re probably enjoying getting a reaction from you.

Nah. Hard wired is not right. They are fed it like a child is fed yoghurt with a spoon. When every sports news item is focused on Chileans playing in Europe it becomes ingrained. It is the opium for the masses syndrome.

On Sunday nights they have a football round up - they start with the Chilean first division and concentrate 80% of that on three teams, Colo Colo, Univ de Chile, and Catolica. Then they brush past the other games. Much like our MOTD. Colo Colo are always mentioned even if they havent played, just because they want to keep the sheep that follow them happy.

They then do a waste of a segment called the international round up. This involves the Chileans that play abroad. They might show a goal from whoever the league leaders are in the Uk or Spain. But they will ignore all other matches and then show highlights of some Chilean no mark playing in the Turkish second division.

When Champions League comes around they will invariably show every Real Madrid and Barcelona game live - even if they are playing some team from Iceland. They would chose this over Man Utd vs Bayern or PSG vs Juventus on the same day.

I take the piss out of them TBH. And I bully them in class if they turn up in a Man Utd or Chelsea top. Because Chileans have never played for either team, and it just means that team is winning trophies in England or Europe at that particular time.

Those half and half Chelsea/Man Utd would sell like hot cakes here.

You know, Chileans first started wearing Man City shirts when Chilean Pelligrini was manager. Even though, he has stated that he has no intention of ever managing the national side or a club side in Chile.

For the most part they are too dense to think like that. Ask CT if you dont believe me.

Let me explain it better - have you seen Ty from Arsenal TV - that is the kind of people we are talking about.

Whereas most Palace fans wouldnt wear a Palace top outside of football day and going to the game.

Personally, I might occasionally don Palace cufflinks.

It is how we roll.

:hi: I entirely agree. I only wear my Benteke pants when I am hoping to score.

64yo virgin then:eek::eek:

You must have about the same luck as I did for about 15 years. And I werent wearing any pants.

I wish he would.

:supergrin:

I will wear a pair if I need to stand still somewhere for a very long period of time.

People who call their family 'Team.....'
F*ck off twats.

Eamonn Holmes OBE, seriously?

Steve Smith

Agreed

What about when he was manager of Malaga?

Less so. The change came when he went to Chile TV loving Real Madrid. Barcelona shirts were discarded en masse. It caused a lot of confusion because I think Sanchez was playing at Barcelona.

I think many had both shirts in the closet, and they would chose which to wear based on who performed better Sanchez or Pelligrini.

I tried to tell people that you cant support both Real Madrid and Barcelona, but that went on deaf ears.

But TBF they are not supporters.

Agree

I know his old man. Is there a thread I should mention this.:supergrin:

He came to Malaga after Real.

You must wank a lot

Honours list generally. An honour of any sort carries absolutely no cache any more. They are just dished out to minor celebrities willy nilly for doing their jobs. I know a few totally undeserving people with honours and I still can't work out why they gor them

Not many Malaga shirts to buy in the markets here. Luckily he seems to have disappeared off the radar.

They like to report on anything football wise that has a hint of Chile in it. Although Chile utterly failed to qualify for the WC they will consule themselves that two former Chilean team managers will be at the WC. They will get a touch of glory transference from that.

Women cant stand their men being idle for long periods.

She has popped off to spend a couple of hours with the grandkid. I use the time to piss about on the BBS. Then I get up and clean the house from top to bottom, she doesnt know that. I check my phone to see 5 missed calls. This means - why dont you leave the house and join me for a walk in 30 degree heat.

I ask her what she wants, and she puts the phone down pissed off. If you are going to do that, why call five times.

She will call me pesado, and then thank me grudgingly for cleaning the house.

She has trouble relaxing herself.

Sometimes I hark for my single days. I am already missing work.

People commentating on my eating: ‘oh he must have been hungry, oh don’t you like it, oh he’s certainly cleaned his plate ‘

People who make a noise when yawning.

While we’re at it, ‘Zander’ Armstrong (which in itself is annoying) saying ‘it’s a goodnight from Richard and a goodnight from me, goodnight

While we're at it - why does said Armstrong when the contestants fail in the final always inform them that, no they did not find a pointless answer so they don't win the dosh ?

BH you have double-posted....you don't win the dosh.

That stupid nationwide advert

**** off

Damn you autocorrect. :)

Early games. Nearly always a bit shit.

This can get to ****, always thought it was very impolite. Yes I eat a lot, spare me the song and dance

Are you 5? Or a dog?

2017. Thank a non-specific deity that it's nearly done.

Terrible and great for me in equal parts. First six months very stressful, second cruising.

A reminder of all my faults. I've had fun but find myself starting again, again, worse off according to any scale you would use to measure.

Return her and buy a new one.

We give a mate of mine stick for his trade ins.

Too old and out of funds to invest in a new one. And I get a lot of mileage on a tank of fuel on this one.

Bad penalty decisions

New Year celebrations. What the feck are we celebrating?!

From a young child i’ve always found it such an irritating, merose and massively cringeworthy time of year. Thankfully now I’m old enough to just go to bed and sleep through the whole nonsense.

Oh...and happy new year!

Can’t stand it mate.

Me and the Mrs and some friends went to Sheffield at 12pm for beers and a meal (only downside to that was missing the game), came back on the 6pm train and fell asleep on the sofa at 8. Went to bed at half 10.

Bad penalty misses morelike !

12th if Bentekes and Luka’s go in. Feckin 12th !!

Joint 9th if Everton didn't have their fake penalty.

Don’t make it worse ! :sob:

It’s frustrating, but with half a season left, there’s a long time to make up for it. Wouldn’t be surprised to see us finish top half.

I'm sorry.









Probably 7th if Allardyce hadn't left. :D

This is very true

And 20th if FDB still here.Cheer up:lux::lux::lux:!

Yep, joint bottom if it wasn’t for the last minute goals against West Ham and Stoke.

We move on.................

Racism in football. I just don't get it, be it from supporters or players. Torquay supporters at it now. I thought this was left behind us in the uk years ago.

I like that. I will replace that thought with the two penalty misses every time they appear in my mind.

And shit on them as well. We have both types of misdemeanour in our office toilets.

Careful, in-exile will be accusing you of living in Maidstone.

People at work saying happy new year. If there was anything happy about it I wouldn't be sat here with you wankers

:D

The new year resolution gym crowd. I'm all for people improving their health, however if you can't do 5 push-ups then you shouldn't be clogging up the bench press. Still i will reserve a special kind of hatred for the fat full kit Man U wanker in Broadgate Circle.

TBF. That has to be worth walking up to him and asking him - what do you think you look like. Anyone past about 15 years of age shoudnt be full kit wankers.

Realising that you are not watching a live feed when people on the BBS start discussing goals you haven't seen yet.

BBSers who comment, usually on the SP thread, and have absolutely nothing to say. No opinion whatsoever ever.

I get why they love SP, but this is a manlove without any room for any criticism.

Dont they understand this is a discussion board?

We should have some system of IQ testing before allowing people on these boards.

Mininum requirement should be the ability to present an argument on a subject of a sentence or two.

Wilfs arguing to refs and benteke getting paid 120k a week

That moment you think an overlong work meeting is ending and then someone makes an banal observation or repeats something said before.

That woman who resigned from the Bronte Society because Lily Cole became patron. What a snob.

This annoyed me as well. I had no idea who Lilly Cole was and a quick look should a smart person with a degree in history of art. Great choice.

The ad for Shpock

Vegans telling me what to eat. You can do what you like, but leave me the f*ck alone.

Apparently a double first from Cambridge

But you know, she was a model, so we should write her off

Ask them why, if they love animals so much, are they eating all their food.

:D

Foolishly putting on Dancing On Ice, then seeing the smug visages of Willoughby and Schofield, I quickly moved on.

Hehe :p

People who don't fully appreciate every match against your rivals. Surely it's what you live for as a fan? I want us to put out 11 killer players against Brighton, and smash them every time we get an opportunity to play them.

DIY, I hate decorating.

What is it with people, I tried 5 stalls in Sainsbury the other day and couldn't bring myself to use any of them, Two seats with a bit of shit on them and all over the pan. Two with piss on them and the other was just rank all round. Pity the poor bastard that has to clean that up every ******* day. I tried to fathom the shit on the seat, I would guess they don't actually sit on the seat and try to hover shit, I just cannot see how it gets on to it! Probably spent too much time standing there thinking what the ****, nearly broke my neck hanging on to it until I got home.

Yep. Every time we play them should be seen as an opportunity to humiliate them further.

Absolutely. Get the job done then take players off.

always baffled me when I went into a loo and there was crusty shite on the top bit of the seat. How the hell does it get there. Then I watched 'Way of the Dragon' a few years ago and the penny dropped.

BBC and all of its sanctimonious employees

"Carrie Gracie has said she resigned as the BBC's China editor because she could not "collude" in a policy of "unlawful pay discrimination".

She quit, citing pay inequality with male international editors earning more than her £135,000-a-year salary.

She said she had refused a £45,000 rise as it still left a "big gap" between her and her male counterparts when all she wanted was to be "made equal"."

I'd be impressed if she took a wage cut cause she's hugely overpaid and cossetted in a nothing job paid for from public purse (by me!!!)

Coutinho or more accurately his transfer dominating the Sky Transfer news reports

I didn't care about him when he was at Liverpool so why should I give a flying **** now he's at Barcelona?

People that believe everything transfer wise that's written in red top papers and use it to have a pop at our club - fools .

Someone could write that f--king half sheep half zebras are being dropped down from outer space with the intention of stuffing our homan arses with stinging nettles and people would believe them - fools.

When do they arrive? Need to clear my diary.

Travelling on buses

Brighton And Hove Albion FC , obviously

The amount of Palace fans who "didn't care" if we lost last night as the Premier League is more important.

Talk about falling for the Sky sales pitch about the "greatest league in the world" (c)

No point. They are horses, more milk from cows.
BTW, it is Friesian in the dairy this morning.

I don’t think anyone genuinely ‘didn’t care’, it’s just that staying in the PL is more important than beating Brighton reserves with our reserves in a 3rd round cup game in front of a half empty stadium. You only need to see what’s happened because of that game to realise why. Schlupp and Andros our for a while by the sounds of it. Should have played a full 2nd string

You sh!t pennies? Try holding on for another day and you could end up with pound coins.

HEAR HEAR. Nealy gave me a heart attack going on and on about Coutinho in SPAIN. had to go outside and watch the grass growing

Stephen Mulherne and everything he appeas on.

1. If there is now a time when Palace don't want to compete in the FA Cup and would prefer to finish 17th, I'm out.
2. We shouldn't have played a reserve team - this is a cup competition we're capable of winning.
3. Half empty stadium? So what? I don't care if one man and his dog turn up, Palace should be trying to win.
4. The injuries are misleading - yes, they hurt the squad but that's not the fault of last night: that's the fault of FIVE summer transfer windows wasted and not strengthening the squad.

People saying we should be concentrating on staying in the PL? Well sure, but we're ******* FIVE years in now and making the same mistakes with an unbalanced squad, meaning the one chance we have of actually winning something has to be sacrificed so we can finish 17th and the CLUB can pocket hundreds of millions and build a shiny new stadium? What bullshit.
