You're just embarrassing.
100% Wire is from Runcorn. And we used to go and watch them play when we were in school.
He is far from glory-hunting and the last Man Utd shirt I remember him donning was the 98/99 Sharp shirt with the zip on it.
Now I do believe he has an arm-chair so you got one thing right.

| Chris Samba's agent confirmed that, in line with most QPR players, there is no clause for a reduction in salary on relegation.
There be a train a-coming...

Sheer lunacy. Although TBH, I have a feeling they might just scrape a way out of the relegation places and so 'get away with it' to a certain extent (obviously they'll still have a load of overpaid players and probably be losing money for the next few years at least).

I suppose it would have been too much to expect a Sky-subscription Aon-shirted numpty to know anything about the history of "their" "club" from before about 1996...

Ooh look - a club that moved a long way away from it's roots to make more money and then changed it's name, badge and colours. Bunch of franchise scumbags if you ask me...
*sigh*

...which are not the same club as the original R&D and never could be. FWIW I still have more than a little regard for AFC Diamonds (they stand a sight more chance of promotion this season than we do  ) and if there'd been continuity between the death of the old club and the birth of the new then I'd no doubt happily be standing on the terraces of the Dog & Duck every week now instead of enjoying my glorious padded seat and ample legroom at Stadium:MK instead. But in the year's gap between the 2 I got sucked in by the allure of the Mighty Dons instead. At the end of the day, you don't choose your club - it chooses you. Maybe that even applies to some Sky-Subscription-Aon-Shirt scumbags, who knows?

Interesting, you bring up the AON shirts, but not the Samsung, Standard Chartered, Etihad or Fly Emirates shirts...?

It doesn't though, does it? What happened at R&D was a shambles. Enough of us have been through similar experiences to know what it's like, many also experiencing being part of the effort to start anew. You chose not to be part of that, choosing instead to go support something else.
I'm not right fussy who people choose to support - their decision, doesn't affect me - but I reserve the right to mock my colleague from the same town as me who chooses to support a club from elsewhere. But there's something about lambasting people for supporting a team that doesn't fit a narrow definition of what's right that doesn't sit right when the lambaster has switched allegiance so. Adding in the fact of who the allegiance was switched to and you have a toxic blend.
