You should tell your contact to warn Jezzer that he won't be making life any easier for himself.  |

He'll have to work pretty hard to come up with a justification for his snide remarks about Ryan Shawcross. Young English defender, plays a blinder in defence, scores the winner, gets called up for the Under 21 squad and Jeremy Alexander decides to take the mick out of his interviews. That was unworthy journalism from someone who works on a serious newspaper.
Oh and tell him to check his facts in future - he said we had no one in the top six to play - what about Arsenal?

given that I read his fine newspaper quite often, you'd think I'd have the intelect to come up with something witty to say about him, however I'm off to work in 30 seconds so .
If you're reading this J. Alexander ....... don't darken the door of the britannia press box again you inbred monkey fucker

Although I was, and still am, somewhat furious myself, I'd be interested to read what he has to say and would admire his brazenness/decency/conscience (delete where applicable) in coming on here, anonymity being the usual response. If you're reading this, Jeremy, and will be attending the PFA Player of the Season Dinner, next month, do stop by my table (Monica Hartland, as to be found on the menu card) and say hello. And yes, I am serious. I don't swear, speak marginally better than young Ryan but enjoy a heated debate. Oh, and I love Stoke City with a passion.  |

His sarcastic criticism of Ryan's post match interview was a cheap shot not worthy of a so called journalist of a supposedly quality newspaper,if he is upset by vulgarity at Stoke , then I can only assume he is not a football fan at all , the vulgarity at Stoke is no different than any other ground (maybe louder , but not different). He should stick to Rugger and take some ear plugs so that he does'nt get upset by the post match sing song.

A colleague of mine witnessed Wilco Johnson at the 100 Club last Friday. He said it was brutual route one pub rock but played with energy and wit missing in 99% of bands who try to do frilly but end up sounding like emotionally piss weak also-rans. I bet Jeremy Alexander wouldn't have given the gig a good review. Ask him who his favourite band is Monica - it will speak volumes.

To be honest, i don't mind people denegratig the way we play....i've done it myself on occassion.
But to start having a go at the area, the supporters and even the media skills of what is still basically a boy is callous, cheap and unpleasant.
He won't post on here, that's nonsense. He won't even know it exists. What his article ensures is the self perpetuating myth that somehow we have accrues 32 points using little more than brute force and ignorance, whilst everyone around us plays the brand of football everyone should want to see.
Well, bollocks.

I just wish everyone would stop latching onto his stupid first name - one I have also been saddled with for 40 bloody years now - at least it made me toughen up growing up in Stoke in the 70s with a name only associated with upper class twits and Jeremy "woolly woofter" ((c) Alexandra Infants School 1976) Thorpe.
He could still be the absolute berk he undoubtedly is if he was called Steve or Dave, couldn't he? ???
Anyway, Mr Alexander, you've got a mighty big hole out of which to dig yourself. Best bring a bloody big shovel.

many years ago I worked with someone fresh out of uni who insisted on using his full title and his middle initial:
Richard S. Booth BSc
I mean I know edumacation is great and all that but BSc FFS.
He was not well liked.
I think this Jeremy A. Lexan DEr is probably another one of these. An induhvidual as Dilbert would say...

Well we've dusted off the best china, laid out the vol-au-vents and even bought some of that posh neopolitan ice cream for afters. We're awaiting Jeremy's arrival with anticipation matched only by that of an impending Rory Delap throw. But he ain't coming is he? |

I genuinely hope he takes a quick peek on here, and I pray for him to try and justify his comments, because, quite frankly, he'll get torn a new one.
The level of intelligence he shows in his report is close to that of a retarded wasp, and although I don't like to pick on cocky but dim folk, I'd take great pleasure in telling him what I think of him and his views.

I would suggest, if he has any sense, he stops digging a hole for himself or makes an apology. This is a situation he cannot possibly win. The reason for that is simple: he has made a fool of himself in the most public way possible. Whatever his thoughts and opinions about SCFC, (and he is allowed those even though we may not like them) the comments he made about Ryan Shawcross were a step too far.
OS.
