You know you're a two bob team when...

When you're unable to get joey barton off the wagebill while he spends time at her majesty's leisure for being an all round tug

No digs at rival clubs here ... Never been as happy than the day a 'top club' took him off our hands

Joey Barton would be more useful as a tug. At least he'd helping sinking ships that way.

You know you're a two bob team when an 'agent' calls, says they have George Weah's cousin on a free and you sign him after a very short trial and subsequently throw him on for the second half where he embarrasses himself and the club.

Sometimes the two bob team is way more exciting to watch than over paid/hyped prima donnas.

Never a truer word said. Fans of United, Chelski, etc know that their side will most likely win on any given day. Most of them have become immune to the pure thrill of winning. Where as with my club Forest, I never fully know how it will pan out. There in lies the excitement. 3 points is sweeter for those who've not always been the favourites to claim it.

When your star forward is having most of his wages paid by another, supposedly rival, club.

No that makes you pretty clever.

If anyyhing it makes the guys paying the wages to play for someone else look like amateurs.

When the main thing on your mind is a 3rd division club in Scotland that "you don't care about'

Or, when Liverpool take a second syringe team to your ground for a European match.

You release a DVD of a decent result vs your local rival.

You know your a 2 bob team when the temporary stand your supporters built after getting into Europes secondary club competition is empty for most of the matches.

What a ridiculous post. There is nothing bad about asking someone not to make fun of people with special needs. Get a grip of yourself.

Even if you support a "two bob team" you can take solace in the fact that the owners didn't cheap out and purchase oldco Rangers FC for half that outlay.

the mods are given power over the forum by others and people here post in the knowledge of that, censorship by peers is something else

But he didnt censor anyone, he simply asked - politely i might add - the poster not to make that kind of comment.

Yeah, that wasn't particularly directed at you - just the conversation in general.
