Just the best gif ever! I remember the season before last we drew 1-1 away with Brighton. We went 1-0 up and within 90 seconds Serge gives away a pen. On the match thread Someone is like "I was away for like 2 seconds! WTF happened!"

Someone posted this gif and I fully wet myself laughing with how perfect it was!
 
....Are you pleading ignorance in your defense then?

If so, then why double down with the 'Only Lucas' comment?
You stated 'False-hood' and 'Lie'. I ask you again, sir, are you accusing me of intentionally stating something I know to be wrong in order to deceive those on the receiving end of the communication? And if so, to what end? And for what gain?

And I am not pleading anything because unless and until you state that you stand behind these mindless 'charges' then I have no reason to 'plead'. Mostly because reasonable people would have seen it as a simple oversight and moved on...as it had little bearing on the main point which you so assiduously ignored in your haste to find fault as the jobsworthy schoolmarm of the thread deciding that the good of the world depends on this small matter.

"You stated 'False-hood' and 'Lie'. "

Yes I did.

What your specific motivation would be? ...Dunno, it's not a mindset I can personally relate to, but it's not exactly an un-encountered tact on here; people here embellishing or just outright making shit up to stick the boot in over an aspect of the club they are unhappy with. You're the 3rd poster I've pulled up for indulging in the exact same '3 windows' spin.

If it was an honest mistake then there's a similarly sincere appology waiting in the wings for you, but like I say, why double down already if that genuinely was the case......?

I imagine there is an MBE for great acts for humanity in your future. Kudos.

So in your estimation folks are doing it on purpose? And in the context on my post, where it had no material affect on my point, why would I need this? You don't seem to miss my posts so do I seem a shit talker like the folks you mention? Do I seem to make stuff up? I always like to be judged as an individual and I afford others the same privilege.

I got an idea perhaps it was a simple oversight because it was a detail that didn't make any difference to my point and you are being persnickety (we do the 's'). that's a thought.

You still haven't addressed my question: I ask you again, sir, are you accusing me of intentionally stating something I know to be wrong in order to deceive those on the receiving end of the communication? And if so, to what end? And for what gain?

Feel free to answer that as it was posed before any of your questions and it's rude to answer a question with a question. But we do know that depending on your answer it might obviate the need to address any of your subsequent questions, right? Is that why you are not addressing my question directly?
 
How does it not make sense? From our point of view I assume you mean.

We appear willing to let our international home grown RB that played in the side that has got to the CL final go for pennies. And this board want him replaced by a guy who’s had a couple of dozen nice games for Palace? For double the money?

Trippier didn’t enjoy a strong season, but he deserves better than the abuse he gets on here.


He’s been shite

An embarrassment

Good lad and no problems but nowhere near what we need at FB

We put up with Sissoko being utter shite for two years before he turned it round.

I’m just unsure of the policy of replacing an international player who knows our team with a guy just out of nappies that’s had a few good games and will cost twice as much.

I’d like to see us keep faith in Trippier for another season.

Sorry but he’s a liability and teams keep targeting our right flank when he’s playing

If we can get £25 million for him snap their hand off


I take your point on Sissoko but neither I nor Poch or Sammy lost faith and look at him now
 
2nd, 3rd and playing proper football ? Where we finished before he started playing regularly?

The players that got us to those finishes weren't fit AND available for any sustained period.

....What you're implying then is Skipp & Broken-Wanyama would have nailed P4 & CL for us otherwise this season?



Blakeeeeey!?!?! :avbfacepalm:
