I then, by mistake, clicked on an article about why Pogba signing for us, and not for the likes of Barca, Real, Rags etc, will completely kill the game and it will only be about the money. Obviously everybody else plays for the love of the shirt, the prick!

Blackburn. They had the best kit reveal ever a few seasons ago. Got to be on YouTube somewhere.

That's quality bollox, and I like the social media feature. That's a top WAG too. Opening that little box to reveal the WAG is like opening a Xmas present when you are a kid.

Is that Kimberley Crew? Fuck me she looks great in that photo. Saw her last summer in a water park in the Algarve and she didn't look great at all, not that I'd have kicked her out of bed for farting or anything but not really a head turner.
