Twang: McClaren a 'twat'
- Artists:
- The Twang »
Martin Saunders, co-vocalist with the Twang, has given his nod of approval to this morning’s grand banishing of Steve McClaren.
Sacked a couple of hours ago by the FA’s top brass, McClaren has been described as a “twat” to NME.com by the ‘aver, who said of last night’s Wembley defeat to Croatia: "it's fucking gutting, isn't it? But I woke up and heard that McClaren's gone and I feel a bit boosted by that."
"We were dead cert to go out before and Israel did us a favour,” continued Saunders, referring to Israel’s defeat of Russia at the weekend. “It seemed like anything was possible. But last night it felt like we were fucked."
You were Martin. You were.
"But at least we got rid of that twat (McClaren)."
We did Martin.
We did.

Share on FacebookI'm not normally one
to moan about the choice of news stories on DiS. But seriously: have a word.
What? Bamos' post?
Me too.
whats
wrong with his eyes? balboa anyone?
Is that a type of Italian snack food?
If so, yes please, I'll have three.
Seconded
Even by the tenuous quality of most NME.com stories it was flimsy. Reporting it second-hand is just a bit sad, really. I know decent music news dries up this time of year, but some quality control would be nice.
This
band seem terribly modern and relevant.
In other news a bandwagon driver was on his way through Birmingham today
Only to find his vehicle was suddenly jumped on by an unidentified assailant.
Well then...
Every single news article needs to be serious! How dare you report something from the NME's website, and twist it into something humorous.
You should be ashamed, sir. Ashamed!
the twang are the voice of the people.
stupid people. but still people.
But it's not funny...
The Twang man is pretty much bang on.
This is up there with
the killers saw a lizard. Gets my vote.
that nose..
Royston Vasey, anyone?
POT.
KETTUL.
BLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACK.
And yet...
Steve McLaren could probably release a better album than the Twang. Funny old world innit.
Martin Saunders
is involved in the worst indie band coming out of the UK in ages - no one gives a toss what you think mate, shove your football opinions and your hopelessly dull music up your arse.
P.S You're a twat.
I prefer
McLaren: The Twang - bunch of t**ts
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two_Minutes_Hate
Tailored for the DiS clientele
The whole idea that if you're not good enough to do your job, you should be prevented from doing it
should be applied to The Twang too.
Brilliant
picture.
I remember when The Killers saw a lizard.
It was interesting.
what a sponge...
This boy is an idiot, and an irrelevant one. They genuinely think they are the voice of the people. It's alarming that bands like them can get deals, but unfortunately, given your standard big city indie charvers, not surprising. Isn't he the same charlie who was pictured sticking a bottle up his arse in NME a while back?
Oh really?
...AAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAH
At least they asked someone
who KNOWS about football. Obviously a band like the Twang are geezers. They're like you and me. They like the simple pleasures of life: beer, slags and footy.
At least they didn't ask some faggot indie band about football. They'd have to ask DADDY for his opinion then pass it on.
He's just rippin he won't be in Austria/Switzerland next summer....
...with all the other English hooligans.
I found it hilarious when John Motson kept stating "Andorra must score if England are to go through". Ha, good one Motty.
Even better, The Republic and Northern Ireland will be in the same seeding group as England for the World Cup qualifiers. Good times.
Rugby, Football and F1. Hasn't been a vintage year for English sport, has it?
So
Daily Mail...
but the rugby side did really well
and so did hamilton.
it's just football is a big bag of steaming corporate passionless dog shit.
i'm glad they didn't get through.
might make them think about what they are there for rather than pondering about which 4x4 they are going to by next.
Yeah...
I know what the intention/joke is. My point is... why bother? At least make a better joke.
The real question is
what do the Pigeon Detectives think about this?
wait a minute..
he says 'isnt it', and not 'innit'?
The Whole World:
The Twang are tw*ts
True
Ha ha! I love this reply, imagine some wimp lo-fi band knowing anything about it!
wanging..
Mclaren got totally Twanged!
Damomad, would you be Irish by any chance?
The vast majority of Irish people that I've met have been charming,witty, engaging, intelligent people.
You however see like a bitter little cunt, I would suggest that it's been a better year for English rugby than Irish rugby and you'll have to remind who this ace Irish F1 driver who bettered Lewis Hamilton (British, rather than specifically English anyway, I've never seen the Cross of St.George displayed behind him n a podium) was?
Get a life.
Look here angry face
I was only joking!
Not all English football fans are hooligans! It's just that the majority of them let the minority (like yourself) down.
There's no point comparing our sporting achievements with your own. We are basically minnows after all, always over performing.
Anyway, I've had enough of explaining my motives to sore English losers like yourself.
Get a life. Huh huh.
