Kinky John's Drunken Storytime

Post by Kinky John Fowler »

Can I ask you all please to gather round, sit down, relax, take the weight off...Uncle Kinks is going to tell you all a little story about favouritism and fairness.

Are we all ready? Ok then, here we go. Take a look at the picture below: (edit, I havent got a clue if you can see the picture or not)

Thats me and my brother in our teens and I know what your thinking, yes!!..we are a good looking pair of mofo's, thing is, my brother (on the left) is a bit slow, isnt quite as handsome as me and has a serious inferiority complex. My mother adores him though, much more than me. I think she felt guilty for dropping him on is head as an infant, she believed she was at fault for all his problems so he always got preferential treatment.

When it was his 13th birthday he was given a Sega Master System, I never got snazzy presents like that...I thought to myself "this isnt fair"...I chose my moment carefully, approached my mum and asked her if I could have a Sega Mega Drive for my birthday, her response was "(sigh)yeeeeees darling" so I punched the air with delight. 7 months later, on my birthday, I rushed downstairs to unwrap my first ever computer games console and what did I find...F*** ALL!! Nobody remembered my birthday again so I thought "sod this load of old b*ll*cks!" and turned to Cider...yummy yummy Cider. The moral of this story is something about treating people equally or stuff along those lines. Capeesh!

John, I don't for a moment believe that's you and bruv. :no:

So what makes them look alike I 'ear you say ?

Is it the League Cup alongside the FA Cup ?

:no: The League Cup has three handles.

It's the FA Cup for sure, alongside the big handles of the European Champions League Cup. ;-) :nod:

Michael Poke, surely?

And, KJF, you most certainly cannot!

I don't mean to be mean, but having seen the Blackpool game on the FLS, you guys are in a spot of bother this season. The defending was pure comedy gold. Do you think you can turn it round?

Matt.

Nick, MTGGWAOC spotted the not so well hidden message first.

I think you have been quite charitable with your description 'a spot of bother', we have been utterly appalling. Whether we can turn it around will depend on what the new boss can do and if he has the ability to spit shine and polish a t*rd. Tomorrow will be interesting as we are already 5 points from safety. Lets put it this way, I wouldnt rush down to the bookies to put money on us getting promotion. :-D

Hows things going for you guys?

McInnes shone in a poor league (the utter p**h i have to watch week in week out) with the supposed big two Celtic and Rangers in a spot of bother themselves, ones under-preforming and the others facing administration, with their owner suing the beeb. Don't get me wrong though the guy has got natural talent in terms of management but your directors are taking a bit of a risk. The reason I say this is because BC is only his second management position, and although gaining promotion to the SPL back in 09 and retaining that status, its all he's really done of note! For me he's still a rookie sorry but thats just my personal view! Here's a wiki page bout him to back my stats up - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Derek_McInnes" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Could be better, KJF. We haven't won since the first weekend in September. Spineless performances, moreso on our travels, at Shrewsbury - I was there and I've never seen a Torquay side look so defeated, there was no fight or anything, poorest I've ever seen. And now we seem to enjoy conceding goals so much that we've conceded 9 in a week, (2-5 then 4-1 today), which isn't good enough, obviously. We're slipping down at a fairly alarming rate in my opinion, and I can't see where the next win is coming from, personally. We have home games against AFC Wimbledon, who lost 5-2 at home today so we'll probably get the backlash on Tuesday), and Hereford, who sit 23rd, I think. We need 4/6 points out of these two, just to stop the slide. The feelgood factor has diminished around the club, as has the winning mentality - that was one thing Buckle had instilled while here, and it's something I miss, if I'm honest.

Thats a fair shout Scottish Gull, to be honest I didnt know anything about the guy until we were linked with him. The problem is I think all the potential candidates we had for the job (Mark Robins definately, Dave Jones and Sean O' Driscoll possibly, maybe) came with a certain degree of risk. Its produced alot of hope amongst many City fans but like you say, he is very much a rookie in the managerial business. I suppose at the moment at least we cant get much worse. Its going to be interesting.

Wish you guys luck and hopefully the risk works out for you. Out of the other 3 i would've taken Dave Jones, probably because thats the only one i know of! your right there wouldn't like to be bottom of the league like.

Im hoping for your sake that this is your bad run for the season that all teams seem to get and that things start improving for you soon. I hope this primarily because your a really good set of guys but just as importantly because Ive got some cold hard cash on you finishing above Bristol Wotsits.

Oh, and well done for also spotting my fiendishly well hidden message in the original post that was masquerading as a story of childhood trauma. Id have gotten away with it if it wasnt for you meddlin kids. :-D

I hope that too. Ha, cheers, but it seems I was beaten to it. :(

Anyway, as for you guys, I reckon McInnes is a good option for now. Hope you guys get out of it as we need some Westcountry clubs in the top divisions!!

Bloody right you were beaten to it Nick!

KJF,

I'll have a watch of your match today and see what I think, then perhaps you'd be good enough to tell us all how normal that performance is so we can get an idea of what you guys watch every week?

Matt.
