Graeme Jones…..

Fagins? Have they taken to pick-pocketing?

Considering they both live in Wigan, it’s not a huge shock.

And also, what did you seriously expect them to do when Martinez took the Everton job? Stick to their principles and refuse to go with him – only to find themselves out of work when Coyle got the job and wanted to employ his own people?[/quote]

With your response you’ve obviously not understood the gist of my post. It was nothing to do with what I expected them to do when Martinez got the Everton job at all, no need to go off on one.

It was a tongue in cheek post about them doing a bit of a scouting job on behalf of Bobby.

You and Edgriff Blyton don’t half get your knickers in a twist if anyone has anything negative to say about Bobby, his staff or indeed Everton Football Club.

Anyroad, I’ve found out today exactly what they were up to last night and believe me they weren’t on their way to Sharpey’s for fish chips mushy peas and gravy, saw the lights, heard the noise and thought, hey there’s a footy match going on here lets have a butchers. :P

Perhaps Paul Ince just fancied watching a football match from inside the ground for a change. :S

I think you’ll find that’s exactly what I said.

No it wasn’t! You said “perhaps they are just enjoying a game of football”. I was just making a tongue in cheek remark about him being inside the ground as opposed to outside, seeing that he his banned from Bloomfield Road for 5 or 6 games.

And you know full well that your Fagin comment referred to Everton taking our players.

Yip that’s 100% correct and I have never said it wasn’t. It was your mate who got into a mucky fuddle about the backroom staff following Bobby to Everton, which I never allured to at all.

It’s nothing to do with me and Standish sticking up for Everton and/or Bobby. It’s more to do with us picking up on childish posts by childish, bitter people.[/quote]

I applaud you for that comment Griff, it has to be the most patronising comment in the history of CL.
It’s come from a man who’s avatar is a picture of him and Roberto posing like they have just been united through civil partnership. The said same man has also written a kiddies book, which by his own admission has been penned by bringing out the childish side of himself. Don’t get me wrong I admire you for having the time, patience, writing skills etc to be able to write a book, but come on calling other people childish?.

Now as for being bitter, yes I am and I’m sure by now you will have got the gist of why I want Bobby and the team “he always wanted to manage” [his words not mine] fail. Its been brought up enough times on here.
Football gets you like that, perhaps I’m too passionate, too protective, too defensive of my team especially when I feel they’ve been well and truly dumped on. If you want to call it bitter, fair enough, but I don’t have these views / sentiments to please posters on here, you and SW included.

You can be quite dry at times Griff, but other times you can come across to be very insulting, [even though you are probably just trying to be clever, especially with the young posters] and on some occasions, for a chap of your age and intellect, you totally miss the obvious, this thread being a good example.

I’ll wait for the reply from “us two” :P
