Just what United need - yet another just-past-his-prime big name player to link up with Rooney and Schweinsteiger. <br /><br />I see Joey Barton says he's going to be "the best player in Scotland" next year, which is a bit like being the best entrepreneur in North Korea. <br /><br />I imagine a manager communicating with Rooney must feel like Father Ted trying to get a point across to Father Dougal: <br /><br />Father Ted: Now concentrate this time, Dougal. These<br />[he points to some plastic cows on the table] are small, but those [pointing at some cows out of the window] are far away... Small, far away<br />[Dougal shakes his head in confusion]<br />Father Ted: Ah forget it...<br />Scott Gronmarkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15118026157459333174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2215553202978284468.post-7553144628353436942016-05-25T18:38:47.302+01:002016-05-25T18:38:47.302+01:00Thank you, ex-KCS - I'd forgotten about Jose A...Thank you, ex-KCS - I'd forgotten about Jose Arragantio and his catch-phrase, "The referee is a tit."

T...You are right about "The Special One". There are two much better options available at this moment. Paolo di Canio [" The Unique One "] may show signs of mental illness [see him celebrating goals], but he has a unique style [he motivates players by kicking them up the arse. During the Fergie Terror the club grew to used to this kind of tactic]. Steve McLaren [" The Useless One"] has a record that speaks for itself. Like Lord Boateng, he punctuates every sentence by switching on a shit-eating grin and at Twente FC he did not bother with learning the Dutch language - he merely spoke to everybody very, very slowly in English in a guttural accent. This would be a great benefit when communicating with Wayne Rooney [ Joey Barton pulled a similar act at Marseilles FC where he spoke to everybody in an Inspector Clouseau accent. Unfortunately, he kept referring to the Club Captain as " that fat, Polenysian ladyboy" so he did not get a lot of games]. Another excellent post. You are running hot again.<br /><br />I really enjoyed the You Tube Peskovitch clip.

You can find it on You Tube. It may ease the pain.ex-KCSnoreply@blogger.com
