What part of Surrey are you both from?

Half of Ireland supports United. I'm also on the bandwagon

He should stop using the phrase 'all time'.

In the new article he doesn't mention limiting it at all. He certainly didn't see anything in Robinson worthy of the number 1 spot.

This is the Daily Mail. There is absolutely nothing coherent in that rag.

Never read it........Don't like the layout or the content..

The Daily sport has a better one and a great current affairs section.

This is pretty spot on the money:

Those who dislike the DM are either not smart enough to read it, socialist idiots, Scottish, Northern or a combo of the above

If you're smart enough to read it, anyone is.

Never been prouder of being thick..

Did I say I read it? I think I said "dislike". And I tend to read BBC/Sky News as I couldn't give two sh*ts what celeb is doing what.

And before Rowley starts kicking off - Jeff Powell was a half decent journo who appears to have completely lost his marbles.

Unless I'm going somewhere on a train I tend to avoid buying a paper...........I'll buy the Guardian or Independent mainly...........But only really for the sport.....Find their writers more mature and more interesting..

coxy has a point. I'm northern, do have a little scottish ancestry, have some socialist sympathies (even if I'm too 'pragmatic' to ever vote for them) and I'm not very smart.

Guess that's why I don't like it. Nothing to do with their unashamed targeting of middle england's, middle-aged housewives with scaremongering twaddle.

I read the torygraph myself!

That DM article could genuinely be used as a conceptual art piece. It isn't even a newspaper - it's a propoganda pamphlet. Absolutely appaling waste of paper.

do one athlete

DM is a load of cack. Plus they have a strange affiliation with the tory boys for some reason, which must be why you like it.

Athlete is a quality nickname for someone struggling to break into a seconds cricket team

In defence of Coxy he might be crap at everything he does and too ugly to pull a chick.....

But in fairness he did win the Prediction league !!

Scored the Crolla - Perez fight 120-107........

Had the 8th even.............and had Crolla scoring two 10-8 rounds in the 11th and 12th..

Maybe he can replace halling.

How does Powell keep his job with guff like that

No. It was how Naz was overrated!

Also, I see the halfwits on here are completely unable to take a rather obvious joke and resort to maturity levels that point to them still have subscriptions of Zoo magazine.

And Scott old boy - 5 years on the bounce in the same side. Admittedly it must be my witty banter and a lack of alternatives that keeps me there as I bat like I'm blindfolded.

To be fair at least it's not every single fight, every single broadcast like Halling manages.

"Nice jab from him there Jim", "He's winning this for me Jim", "Jim, will you smash me as hard as you can" blah blah blah. As one motorsport commentator famously once said about circuit designer "he should be taken in to a dark room and beaten".
