Because this nauseating post count obsession is worthy of scornful comment.

dola,

I love football but rarely comment in this thread. It's just a big unfocused spew for the most part.

Only you talks about post count though, I've only ever talked about post counting when you've come on to put the thread down, if you take notice post count is never really mentioned until you/someone jealous comes on the thread.

How is it unfocused ? about 90% of the posts are about football.

Huh, give you $1000 if you can find anywhere I said YOU did have the season removed from the htread title, I said the majority of the time post counts gets mentioned on here is when you come on.

Does one have to be intoxicated to make a joke.

In the same way that a thread that attempted to cover all baseball topics would be an unmitigated blob as well.

ukhotstove · 05-17-2007, 01:42 PM

If you don't like the thread then don't post, I don't like basketball, guess what I don't post in the basketball thread and I don't post in the basketball thread moaning about it, it's hardly rocket science is it.

As has been previously mentioned, I have an abiding affection for footy. Not so much for rocket scientistry.

He would work

But Bayern can do better, they need a top class playmaking midfielder.
i.e. Kaka, Robben, Ronaldinho

I understand Bayern are not going to find one of that quality...but that is the type of player they need.

They DO NOT need another striker
Unless they plan on fielding a GK and 10 strikers

Have any of the EPL clubs contacted Felix Mageth about a possible job yet?
He is fluent in English and I always thought him a excellent manager

ukhotstove · 05-17-2007, 02:06 PM

Only the Man City job open at the moment and that's tipped to be Ranieri's.

rudel.dietrich · 05-17-2007, 02:06 PM

I am going to start a new thread anyways

More to give a little structure to the thread and mostly to keep this one from imploding.
Big huge giant threads are not good for the message board.

I have no idea why it was changed, I did not ask for it.

Only person in this thread who suggested such a thing was Bababui who also mentioned the exact same name that this thread eventualy became.

Maybe he PMed a mod and asked for it

I really do not like my posts and thread titles being editied when they contain nothing against forum rules and I am not told ahead of time about the changes.

But it hardly matters, I plan on starting a new thread anyways.

ukhotstove · 05-17-2007, 02:14 PM

I don't see what the problem with the thread title was or starting a different thread every season as there are multiple threads that start a new every year but never get put into one giant thread, start a new one when you feel the time is right which would be around 1st July like you said as I know a club (forget who) announced a pre season game to be played at the start of August so July will give us a start for the new season.

ukhotstove · 05-17-2007, 02:17 PM

Surprised this hasn't been mentioned.
