joe__the__man Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 I'm bored of hearing people say Liverpool with be playing the 'Rodger's way'. Roger's didn't create the way Swansea played. Jackett, Martinez and Sousa did. Rodger's just carried on playing the same way really. Three misused apostrophes in 4 short sentences? Some kind of record there. Not so long ago I could tell people to go have **** a midget and all would be fine. Not anymore. Got to bring it back to midgets. I come to bid you all farewell. Only think it's the two new kids that are too touchy, could just ban them? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gechal Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 I think Bentley got to spurs and thought he had made it. I think his attitude is all wrong. I don't know. Crying shame he had tons of potential. In the end he is a multi millionaire who didn't really do much to earn it. I apologise Sunderland was maybe a bad example. Just want someone, anyone to take him. I'm too scared of seeing him and Jenas play in a spurs shirt again, even in a friendly. Not good for my blood pressure. I'm not touchy and if you say I am again I'll tell my mum Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nottingham Forest Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 SRL, you say if Bentley cared about playing, he'd take a pay cut. It may not be as simple as that. At Spurs, he could be on about £70k a week all in. Now, would you take a pay cut in your job for another company if you didn't have to? You probably wouldn't. If he's happy in London. Quite possible considering he's from London, what's to say he doesn't want to move his family. So, until someone matches his wage or he gets released he'll milk it for all it's worth. From what I've heard, he invests some of his money in other business ventures. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRL88 Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 All I cared about when I was younger was playing professional football. I had my chance in a youth team and I blew it. I would give anything to be back there again and if I was sat at Spurs on £70k per week and wanted to play football so bad, I would definitely take a pay cut to go elsewhere. I would downsize in my house and do what I needed to ensure that I could afford a luxerious lifestyle still, but I would go from £70k p/w down to £35k p/w no problem if I really wanted to play.

Nottingham Forest Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 How did you blow it SRL if you don't mind me asking? I know you played for a few academies didn't you. I just always thought that you had done your knees which is why you was forced to give up. Also, downgrading your house isn't always easy. Buying a house in London would probably be more expensive in London than in Wigan or somewhere like that. Now, footballers will have mortgages like we do. And when you sell a house you'd probably have to pay it off. So yeah, it's whether they could afford it without screwing themselves over. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

These players are made financially before they hit 20. Football is not a priority for them (not all) anymore. The hunger is not there as it is for you. If you had 70k a week, it doesn't matter how much you have in the bank, you are not going to take a pay cut if you don't want to. And if you have no ambition as a player left, even more so. Money is relative to the peer group you are in. This is why players who are on 70k a week will uproot and go somewhere for 150k a week. They see other people earning more than them and they want a piece of the action. Look at the arsenal exodus to man city for example. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just always thought that you had done your knees which is why you was forced to give up. No, no. My knee's I have only blown in the last few years. I tore my knee ligaments playing 5-aside in 2008 I think it was. After I went through physio etc I tore them again in my first game back playing Sunday League after 5 minutes from coming off the bench. Went up for a header and my knee buckled under me when I landed. That was in 2009. I played for Middlesbrough between the ages of 9-14. I blew it because I got really pissed off with training and the coaches. I was an attacking midfielder and played alongside Lee Cattermole who was the ball-winner. The coaches kept banging on at us both to swap over and me become the ball-winner, which at the time wasnt my game (it was as I got older and then I turned into a centre back - ironic). I was quite big headed at the time and walked. It was the stupidest decision of my life and as much as my Dad kept pushing me to go back I was addiment that I shouldnt and I could get a contract with Sunderland who I wanted me to sign with them as well after watching me for the District at the same time Boro did. Anyway, if I didnt quit Boro, I would have been at training one night but instead I wasnt and I was out playing with my friends on our bikes. I went over a jump on my bike and landed awkwardly. I ended up going over my handlebars and the big handlebar lacirated my right groin. The laciration was about 5 inches long and missed the main artery in my groin by less than an inch or I would have died. Kharma . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nottingham Forest Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 According to wiki. If you win the Sudamericana, you automatically gain entry to the other one.

How I was in that in the first place I dont know because the club finished something like 17th the season before I joined and didnt win a trophy. Views on Rangers or "Sevco" Being moved to the third division? It will be a good save on FM13 . Honestly though, its the right thing to do. There is no way in any world they should have gone in any other league. I worry for Scottish football though because without the Old Firm Derby there will be an evident lack of money.

So that really throws it out considering you won the other one. Maybe it's vice versa as well. But they run at different times, so it's not quite like in Europe regaridng the Champions League/Europa. Also qualification is, (for Argentinan clubs), is based on how they in the Clausura as well as on the aggregate of the Apertura/Calusura. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
