Michael Owen.
Kevin Keegan. I'll explain. he kept on spitting his dummy out, he disbanded the reserves, so left Dalglish with 15 first team players. he had more money than anyone else in the league by a mile and still threw it away. that interview. his hair. the way he quit when he didn't get his own way.
I'D LOVE IT!!!!! ๐

His teams played a very very attacking and exciting brand if football though. AND he had the bollocks to buy Asprilla, one of my favourite ever players.
Arsenal fan here.
Nicholas bendtner. Lazy ****er, so good in his own mind he has to put in no effort. A waste of talent.
and, adebayor. Good for half a season, demanded more money, got it. Demanded more, went mardy and pissed off. Mercenary waster.
If i may.....on the other side of the coin, i love gilles grimandi

I loved asprilla. my mate was his interpreter,and another lived next door to him. there weere some crazy cray stories about him ๐
Leeds fan.
Ken Bates and Peter Ridsdale are obvious figures of hate. Never liked Dennis Wise as manager. Mark Viduka was a fat tub of lard who rarely broke sweat in the club's final Premiership games.
MOT.
Leeds
Bates, Wise, o'Leary, Harvey, Risdale and more recently warnock.
For Dave b wonder the bates stabilised the club comment, remember he did not actually own the club he was just running it for some unknown investor. He swore that in court after he put the club in administration for the second time, taking a 15 point penalty making the leeds position very unstable, then proceeded to piss money on vanity building projects, loss making business ventures, court cases, his own expenses etc blah blah whilst treating the fans like dirt alledgedly. Oh and I forgot selling the best players while investing naff all in the playing squad......where did all that money go ? Delph, gradel, beckford, howson, snodgrass, Lennon etc
Chelsea fan.
Cant say i hate anyone that much.
Just overall disappointment with the way football has become a play thing for the wealthy.
Disappointment that i always have to say i support Chelsea and then have to back it up with; because my dad did as did his; its in my blood.
Disappointment that i cant turn up at Stamford Bridge without having to save for the trip and book ages in advance; gone are the days of having a few beers and pitching up at the shed for tickets at 2.45pm!
Tend to watch my local clubs now; Exeter and Torquay.
Leeds, again.
Wilkinson. For not keeping and building a team around Cantona..... and for buying Thomas Brolin.
Brolin. For being gash.
Peter Ridsdale. For having no buisness acumen whatsoever.
Lee Bowyer. Do I have to explain?
Robbie Fowler. As above.
Uncle Ken was a crook but he kept the club afloat. Chelsea scum? Yes but we'd not exist without his, erm, efforts.
Leeds fan: The usual suspects, for me Ridsdale was worse than Bates - and Ridsdale created the situation that allowed Bates to come in and effectively get a free football club to play with.
Manager-wise, O'Leary deserves a lot of blame for the under-performance of what should have been a premiership winning team, he was flattered to inherit a top side and achieved nothing with it, less than nothing if you think that failing to make the CL was the beginning of the financial crash. And his handling of the Woodgate / Bowyer legal issue was abysmal
Warnock - useless
Wise - useless and unpleasant
Venables - criticised earlier in the thread, I'm going to defend him - he came to Leeds with the clear ambition of winning the title and it wasn't his fault that the team he thought was going to do it was sold from under him. You could see he was genuinely bothered by it and not just there to collect his salary. The look on his face, particularly towards Ridsdale, at the press conference announcing Woodgate's departure was only beaten by the look of shock and "WTF?" on Woodgate's face when he arrived at his new club.
Players - Viduka gets a lot of stick but whenever I watched a game, he put the work in, and in fact he was one of the few who still seemed to be making any effort at all towards the end.
Brolin - fat and useless.
Bowyer - thick violent idiot.
Kevin Keegan. I'll explain. he kept on spitting his dummy out, he disbanded the reserves, so left Dalglish with 15 first team players. he had more money than anyone else in the league by a mile and still threw it away. that interview. his hair. the way he quit when he didn't get his own way.
That's ridiculous. Keegan bled black and white. He quit because unlike a lot of managers who are happy to be p*ssed about by incompetent chairman/football directors/egotistical and lazy players and sit on his salary, he had the balls to stand up to them and the honesty to admit failure. Yes disbanding the reserves in hindsight wasn't a particularly great idea, but you can't blame that for the failure of Dalglish. If the reserves were so bad why did Dalglish then go and sell off our best players and replace them with the likes of John Barnes, Guivarch, Ian Rush, John Dahl Thomasson, Andreas Anderson and Temuri Ketsbaia?
Toon here..
Sadly have to agree with what Warton said about Keegan, bit of an oddball really.
And Michael Owen - inexplicable.
Lots of sundry misfits over the years, all clubs/teams have them - great innit ! ๐
Carlisle, Michael Knighton. What an utter, utter prick.
Gooner, no real manager upset me (we don't get thru that many!) but biggest gripe is ex players who turned on the club.
Eg Stewart '****t' Robson '[i]"I hope it [Wenger's exit] is sooner rather than later because I certainly won't miss him because Arsenal have been going down the wrong road for quite some while," Robson told the BBC.[/i]
Nice one chump..
Nasri, Adebayor, Ca$hley all have my contempt but as I see it the club is better off without them
Toxic why do you think bates kept leeds afloat? It was not him who bought the club it was an unknown investor according to ken, he did not become involved at leeds for the sake of the club he became involved to line his own pockets. He also nearly ruined the club taking into administration for a second time, before a mysterious investor bought it back in rather curious circumstances....we would not be around without him...why because it's what he told everyone time and time again. There were other bidders the first time around and the second time around.
This may just make Binners' head explode
Posh toff .... ........check
