    We won the league. In West London. We won the league in West London.

    The sooner Lily Allen gives up and accepts her decent into absolute obscurity, the better.

    Last I saw she'd resorted to posting pics of her weeping gibbon on twitter. Sad!

    To be fair, the first two respondents both immediately take it in its correct tone, one of whom is reproduced here in full for your viewing delectation:

    "At last, a witty well thought out humourous pre match write up, even if plenty of artistic licence with some of the facts, there should be more of this type of humour even if we've heard most of these preconceived, stereotypical notions before it puts a smile on peoples faces, Most pre match write ups are so formulaic and repetitive so it's a yes from me. You'll be able to spot me easily in the Hammersmith end on Saturday as I will be dressed in my black and white Where's wally outfit and be studying my Financial times throughout the game until we go 1-0 down and then I'll be off back to my Luxury town house In Hammersmith."

    I think this might also be our first league game in our away green kit, due to Fulham having a fair amount of black on their home shirt as well as black shorts

    Still not as desperate as when she rocked up a day or two after Grenfell. Taking the media spotlight, she 'became' the spokeswoman for the poor and the bereaved by making outrageous claims about hundreds of additional people being killed, riling a mourning community into further hurt and anger to get her face in the papers.

    My personal highlight was when she was elected prime minister and proceeded to apologise on behalf of the whole country before promptly fixing the migrant crisis in Calais.

    I usually have to go to more ’exclusive’ websites to appreciate such things. I might sign up to twitter based on this...

    It's good to see that there's at least one person on there who gets it. He's right that regular match previews are boring trite nonsense. Message board threads that consist of post after post containing slightly varied suggested team line ups are quite possibly the dullest thing on the whole of the internet.

    There are others on there however, who distressingly don't get it at all. One promises me, by way of retribution, a 'fanfare of abuse' at Saturday's game.

    I'd like to think this would be something which begins with a blast of trumpets. Da-ta-da-tada-ta-diddly-dAAAAAA! Then the whole cottage rises as one to shout "Kremlin - You Kant!"

    I shall have to turn the radio up to see if it happens, as I will be halfway to Brighton driving daughter Lilly Longtongue to university.

    For every one rival fan who can appreciate the tongue in cheek dry humour there are ten who comment the likes of:
    'I used to ignore/quite like plucky little Watford but after reading that tripe I hope we stuff the jumped up little tin pot southerners/northerners/long ball/revolving door manager/add own insult/cheating dirty little shy_tes'.

    Keep up the good work Clive, nothing like a wind up being taken so seriously to ramp up the friendly rivalry.

    If any forumistas are sculling on the relevant reaches of the Thames 10 mins before ko, they might hear the contumely & report back.

    The Southampton forum has, someone noted, a similarly wooden modus operandi.

    Most will.

    Btw, interesting you mention Kant.

    Would anyone like to set the ball rolling by naming their favourite philosophers (being clear on what formation they would play & who is goalkeeper)?

    Clive, on reflection, you may have ****ed up royally this time!

    All the Joka has to do is read this out to his team & the bloodlust will engorge their souls.

    Tough lunchtime for the Hornets.

    I picture him prowling his area with a Gitanes in the corner of his mouth.

    (The autospeller did suggest Guyanese there which would altered my meaning.)

    It's because she's a gossip. Can't keep a secret, our Lill.

    Kantona would probably consider himself worthy of a place in the forward line

    To be fair to Lily Allen, she can really relate to the poor and downtrodden of society as proven by her entirely genuine cockney accent and her tough hand to mouth upbringing, which included being educated at Bedales School, where termly fees cost a mere £11,000 or so.

    Karl Marx - left wing.
    JS Mill - libero.
    Joey Barton (well, he thinks he's a philosopher).
    Socrates. Born in Greece but played for Brazil.
    Almen Abdi (didn't they call him 'The Professor'?)
    River Plato (hey - a whole football team).

    So what links Kant, Camus and Lily Allen? Oh yes, a pre-match thread on wfcforums for FFC v. WFC - any Fulham fan looking in here for some opposition fan insight on the game is going to be disappointed (and confused)

    Did you know that John Craven got caught in a gay sex romp at the Beeb in a stationary cupboard. It was with Tony Hart and Cheggers.

    No word of a lie. Sean Dyche told me once when he was drunk.

    TBF many of the posters on this forum cant take a joke either.

    Albert Camus - Goalkeeper

    ...who actually was a real life, bona fide, philosopher, and a real life goal keeper. Although Im not sure Id call The Plague a philosophy text, just a rather depressing and boring ( it is French after all ) story.

    Kevin "The Prince" Boateng....owned by Italian agent Machiavelli

    Trevor Francis Bacon...who funnily enough was Viscount of St Albans which makes him a hornet

    And of course David Beckham, whose philosophy of life was summed up perfectly when asked what he thought about the death of Sir Stanley Matthews, famously replied " My family love his turkey twizzlers and never without a pack of his burgers in the freezer"

    The poor girl was born with a silver spoon in her mouth and can afford to pretend to be a socialist, bless her little cotton socks (from her own clothing range I believe).

    I used to quite like her from the glimpses on TV as she was quite cute and has a song I liked - but soon realised she is just another poor privileged little girl with her head space in a vacuum aided by drugs and high profile failed relationships and a ‘poor little ol me’ attitude that has made her quite ugly.
