Oh dear the cultural ambassador steams in and makes a tit of himself yet again !
Frank Lampard Thread
- Thread starter Kjbert
- Start date
Maybe the topic has gone off thread at times ,but its the first time I've seen this site function as a forum with a lot of members putting things forward discussing ,disagreeing, agreeing and even having a bit of fun and banter.
So I say well done to everyone who's contributed to the last 10 pages or so.
Then we get the usual suspect turning up and trying to stifle debate !
I'm going to have to give this post one Petke Sweater-vest for clinging to the one good result in years.
Well he seems to have retreated and I don't feel a need to poke the bear.Here's the difference in tone and why people won't see eye to eye. People who are past Lampard and don't want him here and/or say they will boo him consistently say "I/we will boo him. I/we don't want him."
Those at odds with that sentiment start their arguments with "YOU".
See the difference? I don't have time to brief this shit out, IRAC style. Maybe our counselor,mgarbowski can do it. I gave it up a long time ago.
FWIW I am pretty sure he really is a NYer, albeit an eccentric one.
And next time let's throw some guns and money in with lawyer too, okay?
Have I retreated? I thought I had doubled down.
(And I could indeed be thought of a as a "bear"; my gay friends tell me that I would be so classified due to the gloriously hirsute nature of my body.)
Anyway, I am most definitely a lifelong New Yorker, complete with a New Yorker's arrogant readiness to dole out unsolicited advice to all and sundry -- delivered, of course, in the dulcet tones of our lovely local accent ovah there.
You are so stereotypical New York European soccer fan, Ferdinad.
Truly a parody of oneself if ever there were one.

Interesting analysis.
I certainly do not deny that I follow the Premier League closely and that I am a Chelsea fan, as that club awakened the football-lover in me.
But, despite the gripes that I have with MLS (single-entity structure; bloated playoffs that sap meaning from the regular season), I pay attention to the league and am very happy to have NYCFC as my hometown team. In addition, I also wish great success to the Cosmos, whom I admire for deciding not to be part of MLS; though following them and the NASL is not very easy.
A stereotypical New York European soccer fan pays no attention whatsoever to MLS, and doesn't know that the NASL exists.
Fair enough, this is true.
I didn't mean for it to be as insulting as it maybe sounded, either.
That's because their stadium is right next to Uranus.
