    Face it Insider dude, the entire article is fúcking ridiculous starting with the most basic premise that the writer appears to view the Charity Shield as a real trophy, placing the same ‘value’ on a 90 minute glorified pre-season kickabout as winning the 38 game league title.

    The arbitrary or otherwise selection of 4 years or whatever as the timespan is irrelevant.

    Your jibes do not offend me, the Insider, for I am to make garlic bread.

    Garlic. Bread. When did you last eat garlic bread? You want some now, don't you?

    Missing the point old chap. The article is clearly stating that Spuds and Scousers win **** all and get away with murder in the press whilst we are portrayed as perennial failures...hardy or otherwise. I shoud add that the headline was written by the editor not the writing and not what I would have chosen!

    I will be honest with you, I barely read the body of the article as I suspected it to be a nonsense. Instead I focused on the trophy analysis which ultimately was the basis of the piece.

    As for Spurs/Liverpool getting a hard time or otherwise, or indeed us being berated for trophy droughts and the like it all largely washes over me as I am an adult.

    Am I to gather that you are the author / journalist?

    I will keep my eye on you.

    Tread carefully or you could easily end up on a list.

    It has always been quite aggressive here in some ways, as is the internet in general, of course. Our chums over at SIMB used to like to characterise themselves as the biggest bunch of cùnts on the internet. I think we have tried at least to match them over the years. Many of our unpleasant personas are now being unpleasant on The Twitter and other manifestations of social media instead.

    We will need to keep an eye on this fella A. He could be lively.
