Are you old enough to remember Diamond Lil's?

Shrek would've loved it then!


I am just about old enough to remember Diamond Lil's and Shrek sponsored grab-a-granny night! And you learn to give the Regulating branch a wide berth (if you'll pardon the pun) very early on in your RN career!!

:lol: Adidas pay the Rags £10m less every time they miss out on CL football. I could see it being true.

Without a shadow of doubt it’s true

And equally, should we be relegated as part of the 115, I’d imagine a significant amount of our sponsorship would decrease

I know we haven't been at our best recently, but fuck me, the rags are truly comical.

Amorim says the current rag side is maybe the worst ever. Of course they aren’t but talk about negative energy

Brilliant. Can’t imagine Jimmy Rat is gonna be pleased

Denis Law relegated the worst in post war. But there's time yet

actually, their relegation was not dependent on the city game.

Yeah I remember, but don't spoil a good story.

Always a good idea to have a quick lurk on rag cafe at times like this. Hilarious

Whilst he may think it, not convinced Amorim telling the world that this may be the worst red shite team in history, is going to do him any favours particularly to the players who are mostly snow flakes. Keep it up Ruben, crack on

He’s basically just said to ALL his players - “you’re shite. Easily the worst. Don’t know why you’re here”

As if that’s going to motivate them to do well for him. Daft cunt. If I was a rag players I’d give 50% effort until I got a move.

Does he expect the rags to get top dollar for these players when they sell them? He’s just said, “we’ve got a load of shit players”

If I was Napoli I’d tell them that they’ll stick at £40m for Garnacho - he’s “shit” according to their own manager.

He wouldn't exactly make a used car salesman now would he.
Probably only realised how much of a mess they are.

Cannot fault his honesty. Backs himself and his system. Its 352 for him full stop. Only negative is they have rangers next so a chance to get another win before a trip to Fulham.

Or, another home defeat would be interesting
