Allan Saint-Maximin

Since his return I think he's looked much much better coming on a sub that he ever was as a starter.

Allan Saint-Maximin

Would be a perfect addition to our right hand side.

Game changer this second half.

Just clicked on this expecting to see a heartwarming story about a young French footballer motivating a group of black and white birds.

BBC Sport really needs to get its act together with these confusing headlines.

I'm now trying to think of a time I've heard Newcastle fans calling themselves magpies. Sunderland call them mags when being derogatory.....could be a Mackem.

Likewise, I don't think I've heard any of us call ourselves foxes. Blues, yes, foxes... dunno, maybe I have but not to my instant recollection.

French commentators love 'citizens' for Man City. It's like the clichéd dancing uncle at a wedding, just wrong.

Presumably because we're all Filberts?

 

[mabrah]

Yes, indeed, filberts more so. It was actually that one I was thinking of.

You shouldn’t call women birds, ted, what year do you think this is?

I suspect he meant birds with feather.





Or perhaps not....

Why would you think that this was about football at all? I clicked expecting a story from the religious affairs correspondent about a latter day St Francis of Asissi performing miracles on three birds from towns in the North. I was thinking that the subs would be desperate for 16 more Acts so they could use that 'corvid 19' headline they'd saved up, but now I see it's just some silly men's football game I'm absolutely fuming.

Gove says it like that. You'd think with 65 million people pronouncing it one way he'd consider that he might be wrong but nope.

You're all raven lunatics!

 

[Ike O'Noclassed]

You're all raven lunatics!

I'm well choughed this thread's taken off.

 

[SJN-Fox]

You're all raven lunatics!

That’s something of an unkindness.

I'm new to all this pun business, just a rookie really.
