maverick sheep Posted June 26, 2010 Report Posted June 26, 2010 I just want to see what folk think about this latest piece of English bullshit. So Monty doesn't bother looking to Faldo..the least successful, least inspirational Ryder cup captain in living memory for advice...and so Monty is a cunt... I'm no golf expert but that seems beyond pathetic from what I can see! Quote
BobbyBiscuit Posted June 26, 2010 Report Posted June 26, 2010 Where was this Maverick?? It was in the paper a few weeks ago that he would be talking to Faldo as long as Faldo agreed to it. To be honest, out of all the captains he was talking to (Woosnam, Torrance and Langer were the others), Faldo would be the best one to speak to as he's the only one who lost so he can find out what NOT to do. Wouldn't surprise me if Faldo hadn't agreed to help, it's the way he's been throughout his career... no one thing is more important to Nick Faldo than Nick Faldo. Quote
maverick sheep Posted June 26, 2010 Author Report Posted June 26, 2010 It was on ss news when i came in this morning. Was an interview with Faldo saying he hadn't been approached, journo talking about how monty's speaking to Langer and interview wi monty asking if he'd speak to Faldo. He basically said he'd speak to whoever but by not saying he was desperate to speak to Faldo the tone of the piece was that it was somehow a snub. It's like you say, find out what Faldo did and do the opposite = win! I find it interesting they didn't mention Woosnam or torrance...just the german and snubbed englishman a couple days before some football game or other... paranoid...me? them? NEVER Quote
TENEMENTFUNSTER Posted June 26, 2010 Report Posted June 26, 2010 Faldo is hardly likely to offer advice based upon what he did wrong now is he? It is clear he knew what he was doing, other people cunted it! Quote

It is clear he knew what he was doing, other people cunted it! Aye, the chances of Faldo ever admitting he was at fault for anything are extremely slim. I don't think I've ever squirmed and cringed so much as I did listening to his speech at the opening ceremony in 08. Quote
Madbadteacher Posted June 26, 2010 Report Posted June 26, 2010 Maybe Monty didn't call him "sir" Nick? Quote
TENEMENTFUNSTER Posted June 26, 2010 Report Posted June 26, 2010 Maybe Monty didn't call him "sir" Nick? Arse Nick. Quote
bilbobaggins Posted June 27, 2010 Report Posted June 27, 2010 Maybe he could advise Monty to have a backroom staff of Faldo jr and DJ Spoony. Faldo is just a massive fud. Quote

Kowalski Posted July 3, 2010 Report Posted July 3, 2010 I just want to see what folk think about this latest piece of English bullshit. So Monty doesn't bother looking to Faldo..the least successful, least inspirational Ryder cup captain in living memory for advice...and so Monty is a cunt... I'm no golf expert but that seems beyond pathetic from what I can see! I didn't see the original story but who was suggesting Monty was a cunt? Nobody seems to have a kind word to say about Faldo so I find it surprising. I think Monty should have a great European team this year. A number of them are playing brilliantly. Quote
BobbyBiscuit Posted July 3, 2010 Report Posted July 3, 2010 I think Monty should have a great European team this year. A number of them are playing brilliantly. He should, but i'm worried that he's overthinking it, just hope he doesn't smother them with too much too muchness. Quote
Kowalski Posted July 3, 2010 Report Posted July 3, 2010 He should, but i'm worried that he's overthinking it, just hope he doesn't smother them with too much too muchness. He'll be fine, he knows how to win it! Quote
BobbyBiscuit Posted July 3, 2010 Report Posted July 3, 2010 He'll be fine, he knows how to win it! Not as captain he doesn't. This is a huge deal for Monty, it's a big deal for any Ryder Cup captain but this is effectively his "Major". Another thing that worries me is the form of harrington and Garcia, two of the most experienced players. Both are outwith the automatic qualifying places and i don't think he'd be wanting to "waste" two of his picks on them when they should be in there automatically. Speaking of golf, anyone heading to the Open in two weeks? Quote
bilbobaggins Posted July 4, 2010 Report Posted July 4, 2010 I usually make it over for the weekend when it's in Scotland Bobby but I'll be on holiday this year. Got 6 rounds booked at Golf Ugolino though, that'll make up for it. http://www.golfugolino.it/nuovo/eng/galleria_foto_e.htm Shame I'm playing like a tit though. Quote

Six rounds there and you'll be back to your usual self. Always find that the more serene setting I'm in the better i play. Your game will def improve in that setting I reckon! You been out that way before? Quote
