The Laughing Thread, the gift that keeps on giving.

Just listening to 2 Rags sat next to me moaning about the "Missed opportunities" and unlucky to "Drop points at home!". But then the best comment yet "If we hadn't dropped all those points at home we would be top of the league now"

I was going to chirp up, but if they are that stupid I didn't see the point

[Blue In Bolton]

Anytime we can

Loss away from home, draw at home. The Rags have pulled it off, just about through to the League Cup final (helped by the ref again) and consolidating that Europa place.

Well done cunt-holes!

All this against real relegation contenders.

Should have been worse with Markovic hitting the post late on with a clever effort with De Gea nowhere near it. Jammy fuckers!

Then the ball across the top that if he'd took down would have been free on goal.

Hull had chances, unlucky to leave with a draw

Was that the one Hernandez should have put his forehead to knock the ball over the top into his path for a clear run on goal instead of heading it up in the air mate? Was fucking fuming at that one. Brought back memories of Adrian Heath at his best!!

That brings back memories that were well forgotten.

I think West Ham's kit launch belongs in here:

shambles of the good club they once were

Right. 18 seconds is all I could stand. #cringe

Who thought that was a good idea? Someone will have actually planned that and signed it off. Must be a mole at the club taking the piss!

Wouldn't be surprised if it was a member of our backroom staff.

Scum's debt up 27% to 409 million, despite a 40% increase in TV revenue.

Woodward blames it on brexit.

I blame it on them being cnuts.

It'll be lovely when they don't qualify for the CL gravy train again.

It says matchday revenues are up 27%, which seems a bit dubious, unless they've had a huge increase in season ticket prices which the media somehow failed to pick up and criticise them over it.......or am I missing something ??

Moreover the new valuation of 'Pigshed', at £4.8 million, seems highly optimistic.

I think UEFA ought to critically scrutinise these returns, with regard to FFP compliance.

Carl, you forgot the space between the 113th and 114th SNUBs. You ruined it man

I saw that as well and I'm such a fan of symmetry.

An accounting trick something to do with them being an American club listed in New York possibly?

[The Maine Man]

Very definitely some 'creative accounting' going on. Tick tock.

Just seen a Liverpool teas set for sale.

It had eleven mugs and no cups

Nice one NB.

The latest rags email flyer says they are retaining season ticket prices for the next season. They claim the prices have been frozen for four years now. Very strange ,match day (dubious , out of sell by date) meat pie prices must have rocketed .

It's probably down to all the extra shirts they sell with Ibrahimovic on the back. They obviously charge per letter.

It's really bizarre that they should be up 27% on matchday.

Given that ticket prices are even there are maybe 3 possibilities:

1) More home matches in the relevant period
2) An outbreak of enthusiasm on the arrival of Maureen after the dire Moyes and the double-dire Van Gaal, - people with STs actually turning up instead of just being counted, and buying more pies
3) Players signed who people had heard of, more shirts etc

Probably charging more for general sale (none season ticket,) and away team tickets.
