Re: New Manager Rumour Mill
Not at all mate, don't claim to be ITK or anything. I only replied to a comment hopping wanderer made about missing out on Schumacher and I said we had our chance as the Bolton one wasn't available at the time.
AP replies with you don't know if we were even interested in him and I just said I know we've spoken to him. Was happy to leave it at that, but I got a comment how do you know for sure.
Don't have to justify myself to anyone, I've been posting on here and going the game long enough, I haven't just opened an account to start rumours.
As he says he's gone now and I think it's a great appointment by Bolton and a good opportunity for him at a big club.
Re: Richard Kone signs
Never been there but Ridley Scott based the cityscape of Blade Runner on Middlesbrough. Not sure that's a recommendation of the place, mind.

"Put your hand up if you're an idiot" always made me laugh when the ref gave an indirect freekick!

I was always amused by the chant “ Can you hear the Gurnum Singh” whenever he ref'd a game

Oh I've heard about this. Brilliant.
Re: Funniest chants
When Gaz was player manager “how s#*t must you be our manager scored” always made me chuckle
Re: Funniest chants
Not sure if you'd describe this as a football chant or not, but I shall never forget a spontaneous rendition from the Woodlands of "Who do you think you are kidding, Mr Hitler" in response to a dubious decision given by a Captain Mainwaring look-a-like referee! Quite a few years ago now, and cannot remember who we were playing, or the final score.
Re: Funniest chants
Glad this thread has been revived. Need to go back 20+ years for my international favourite: "5-1, even Heskey scored" after England's legendary victory in Munich. Also on an international theme, the perennial "cheer up {Scotland manager}..." always raises a smile.
Re: Funniest chants
Used to quite like "we're the famous Wycombe Wanderers and our swans will break your arms"
At least it was original
