2017/18 Ross Barkley

[Steve Wigan]

I love the way a hint of Bugsy Malone is creeping into this thread.Can't wait for the film. I reckon DeNiro as Koeman, Stallone as Ross, and Al Pacino as Aaron Lennon. ....

Wasn't Bromley murdered up Breck rd

Was killed in West Derby mate in Charlie Seiga’s house

That's right it was his son who was killed in Breck rd.

From memory it was Bugsy Siegel. A contract was put out on him and he was murdered in LA I think. One of Lucky Luciano's crew

 

[Exeter Gently]

*inserts Beatles have broken up line*

ey....that's my line!

Correct,no one was ever brought to justice either.

 

[peteblue]

Yeah, I guess the moral of the story is don't goose gangsters' molls.

So you're saying goose the gangsters......that might work I suppose....

 

[sheedys big toe]

Something to do with his father's gambling debts, he had to get transfer fees too pay the debts off, I believe...

 

[Brisan123]

I wouldn't be too sure he said what's been attributed to him.

Koemans a liar now Dave ???

 

[a bell maul]

Before my time. Arlene Francis rings some distant bell. What's My Line was quite popular in the '50s, '60s and even into the '70s.

I guess a few markers were called in and palms greased.
I saw a fascinating doco on it all a while back; very interesting

 

[Death]

Maybe he's just injured?

Remember the last time you all thought it was nonsense and then he had actual surgery? Perhaps learn a lesson from that?

No?

Alright then.

The lengths the club will go through. Whipping out a scalpel n'all. Ruthless.

 

[longers]

Is a hamstring injury likely to ruin a medical ? I swear injured players pass medicals all the time.

Just look at Rooney to United, he had a broken foot ffs

It's what happens when you crossed The Mob back then.

it's potentially a risky strategy Pete. Remember Marselles in Pulp Fiction when Zed goosed him in the basement and Marselles (after being rescued by a katana wielding Butch) was going to deal to Zed by "getting in some hard pipe hitting homies with a blow torch and pliers" to get to work on Zed's sorry ass.
Anyway, all I'm saying is goosing the gangster is only ok if it's consensual.
