Reply | Quick Answer - Classic Film For Tonight

Some really good ones on here to re-watch, and even a newbie for me - The Quiller Memorandum
Full Metal Jacket was glorious, of course. It's my favourite of the Vietnam films.
Thanks all. |

I thought, Loftboy, (?) that one of the verses used to be:
“meet me by the railway track with a bottle in your hand I’m going to be your drinking man”
but another was:
“meet me by the railway track with a knife in your hand I’m going to be your stabbing man” |

Seems odd alright.
Maybe - maybe - Dunne's aerial won %age is hampered by the amount of corners he jumps for at the near post, only for them to fall a few yards short? |

I actually really like Stéphan, and I think he's doing well.
I think he's ambitious and hungry, and I hope he drives that into the club. |

I 100% agree that we shouldn't get too down after a bad result.
100.5% agree.
But I don't think we should trot out excuses either. Call a bad result what it is, a bad result. Move on.
I think as a club we lack ambition, and have done for years.
We chat too much about 'tough games', 'tough opposition', 'tough weeks', 'thr**-gam*-we*ks'. I think that kind of talk puts a limit on our ambition. So does chat like 'it's a good draw if we win our next game'.
I can't imagine Warnock accepting such chat in his promotion season.
'Ye've got to DIE for three points'. :))
It's a decent season so far, but we need to drive it on. Relentlessly.
This is our chance. |

Also, Ferguson.
Appalling sportsmanship, and a stain on the game. Whiney, whingey, arrogant, obnoxious.
Hung out with tax-dodging billionaires, and through his own greed drove them out, opening the door for the Glaziers and turning the Theatre of Dreams into the Theatre of Nightmares.
Hubris. |

I don't like grouping games. It leads to comments like "we'd settle for twelve points from that block". So we end upforgiving, or accepting poor results because they're part of a decent 'block'.
Also leads to comments like after we drew at home to Burnley, that it's an ok result if we beat Lincoln. It isn't. It's two points dropped, and it doesn't matter if Rangers beat Lincoln five days later or Karachi beat Carecas. It's two points dropped.
This is how we end up mid-table every year.
Win the next game, then - and only then - think about the game afterwards. |

I have very little interest in International Football.
I like all the teams in the water to do well but if they lose it doesn't put me up or down.
As John Hume's Dad said, "you can't eat a flag, son". |

He's my favourite player since Eze left. He's a joy to watch, and a serious talent.
He makes us better.
And, yes, there are times where he has held on to the ball and waited for a better option for the team.
But, let's be fair, there have also been plenty times where he has held on to the ball and waited for a better option for him. |

I think we may have lost another record - 2-0 up after 5 minutes at Old Trafford? |

Great point.
Also, the coaches and the clubs.
We're paying you serious money, your teammates rely on you, a shinpad never made anyone play worse.
Put proper ones on, and grow up. |
