Nah wait for some spin int he week

Rubbish. So we shouldn't order "patties" in chip shops or ride our bikes down the "ten-foots"? Or fish for "tiddlers"?

Paul M is right on this one. There's plenty of other things to berate Agar on, all of which will give our "not good enough" argument far more credence than picking on his dialect. That merely undermines the strength of perfectly valid criticisms and only serves to make the ridiculers look like small minded bigots.

But if you wanted to order your patty in a ten-foot or ride your bike in a chippy, we'd think you were barmy.

It's not the word, it's how it is used. Many are criticised for using long words in the wrong context, we're talking here of a word that is all of two letters long

If that's abuse in your eyes, I'd hate to see how you react to [iactual[/i abuse. I'd agree that some of the comments on here calling him a 'fooking nob' and suchlike constitute abuse, but mocking his misuse of the word 'us' doesn't even come close. It's no different to Spitting Image's portrayal of, say, John Prescott. They chose to mock his accent and way of speaking as well as his politics. It happens.

Why are they 'cutting off their noses to spite their own face'? Maybe they're just fed up of being fobbed off about our poor form and have decided to spend their money and time elsewhere. It costs a lot of money to attend a match, and the club aren't delivering value.

We [ido[/i deserve better. I don't expect that we should win a trophy every season - or even every two or three seasons. What I do expect is that we're able to compete with all the other clubs who have the same sort of expenditure on players that we have. We haven't had that for long enough, and it's wrong. People's loyalty will only go so far and it has been stretched to the limit over the last few seasons.

The way Agar sounds makes the club look amateurish. It's not his accent, it's the misuse of language which is either lazy or a lack of basic education. Neither are qualities.
