Benitez is not, never was, and never will be "one of our own". He's merely an incompetent conman that the board - including Abramovich - were stupid enough to entrust with running the club.

 

 

Bloody Hell, Tommy!! Are you reading my mind?  If I hadn't stopped to correct my typos I'd have got in there before you!

and wheres the difference between the two?

go post that in the Benitez thread

 

I don't call the Interim by any names, I call him the Interim or the Fraud.

 

I certainly haven't spent time thinking of names to call him, which wouldn't take long.

 

If you think that Torres in anyway compares to the Interim then I suggest you have a long look at yourself.

Really?

Not sure where to start with that one to be honest but without stating the (seemingly) obvious I would answer it by simply asking what your feelings were regarding the acquisition of Torres before he turned out to be sh*t? Then compare that to Benitez just before he was named Manager.

 

Benitez was disliked/hated due to more than the fact he was/is a sh*t manager, Torres on the other hand only seems top have really started getting abuse from his own 'fans' when he has turned out to be a busted flush.

 

That is one key hole in your 'what's the difference' argument.

Personally, I think the name Floppes is brilliant and very, very apt, and whoever came up with it (can't be bothered to go back and check) is indeed a very clever bunny indeed.

 

Each to their own.

 

I find it amusing that people feel so protective towards someone who continually pours out excuses to the press (the latest coming only last week), gives half-hearted performances like the one against the dippers and cheats the paying punter.

 

I could call him a lot worse, believe me.

 

Bosingwa continually got called Unibrow on these boards and more besides, plenty players have been called lots of things and nobody has raised an "eyebrow" (see what I did there?) but as we all know, when it comes to Fernando Floppes, people apply different rules, the same rule Benitez applied when he not only started him at Anfield but gave him the full 97 mins.

This thread really is becoming a splendid platform for those with a razor sharp wit to showcase their unquestonable skills.

 

I am definately out of my league here.

 

Have never been into mocking Chelsea players, Torres or other, and will continue to leave that to opposition fans.

 

Each to their own though.

I am glad someone else thinks so- it's really scraping the barrell....

 

It is about as witty as reffering to Liverpool as Liverpoo and Chelsea as Chelski.

 

Oh u sensitive thing u ... How did u ever cope in the Terraces days ... :Animation4:

With all the bad language u must have been traumatised?

 

Floppes ... i actually think sounds quite cute & cuddly ... :rafa:

 

Torres is a Flop! ... There u go! Hopefully this has toned it down a little & is now acceptable to the Post Police   :connie_oldman_cleanglasses:

Yeah the fact I don't find 'floppes' funny does logically mean I must be sensitive, am grossly offended by swearing and naturally begs the question of how I would have coped in the 'terrace days'

Good to see you are not getting carried away...
