How Stupid Are Boro ?!!!

I'm sorry I'm still pissin meself at the article in the The Mail today. 'Middlesborough trail Italian Star' ? go on, have a guess, who do you think it refers to?

None other than our very latin sicknote Sandro Pistone. The Boro idiots on their websites are getting all excited about it too!

Ow, ow, ow, I'm laughing so much it's hurting! The words, star, footballer and worldclass in the same sentance as Pistone!! I haven't laughed so much since we got £2.5M for Barn Door Bent!!! [Just thought I'd brighten your day up with that little titbit!!]

Unbelievable, obviously Southgate is managing the expectations of the smog monsters very well

I must say I was disappointed when Pistone left as I did think he was worldclass and was a very talented footballer. The left back position has not been the same without him.
Lescott isn’t really up to it at left back and this new lad Baines well I can honestly say I’ve never seen such tripe.
Yeah, Sandro has definitely been a big miss in the squad since he left. I think he’ll be a good addition to the Boro squad.*

*I’m off to take my pills now, I’ve got mental problems you know.

steve was that sarcasm? Hope so cos Pistone was never fit enough for us to be 100% certain that he was shite. Baines tripe?
hope that was a joke, he was up against Bentley on saturday and i bet you didnt even realise that Bentley was playing.

Yeah, it was sarcasm. I thought the last line would’ve gave it away but obviously not.

The Boro fans are saying the same about Yakubu to be fair.

Well, given his age and inexperience, Southgate’s clearly not the best judge of player ability...

Pistone (as well as Tuncay) was awesome on Football Manager ’07 - Would be my 1st source if I was thrown into management as well!...

Don?t be so hard on Boro. Inter are most prob still laughing their arses off for getting money for van der meyde. And I think there might be a giggle or two in Valencia.

Pistone is one of the few players I can recall being booed by Evertonians. I remember the way he used to just stand and watch as balls zipped past him, ever so often breaking into a canter.

But....we sell Beattie, and he starts scoring goals again.

Steve C I bet you are worried about your cred when a fellow blue might even for one second think you meant it ha ha
