David Squires In The Guardian

[Oldyella]

It's Squiresday again: https://www.theguardian.com/footbal...ter-citys-dominance-and-football-whataboutery

The 'cut out and keep picture of Vincent Kompany' panel after the the ones about the anti-City media conspiracy

Fantastic. The Kompany and Thomas the Tank engine panels especially.

(and is that Ned Stark with his head sewn back on in one of the last panels? Is Sean Bean a Sheffield United supporter or something?)

And aye he's a Sheffield United fan, so is Mark Addy I believe coincidentally.

Both in The Full Monty too

Ah, found it, he was born in Sheffield)

Didn't he have a movie where he's a drunk that plays for Sheiffield United and he actually scores against us?

That's where my knowledge of english pop culture is definitely overreached, I'm just a poor continental
No idea how Squires does all this from the other side of the globe.

Presumably from spending an extraordinary amount of time on English twitter. I spend too much time on there myself but he always has a twitter in joke or two in his cartoon that go right over my head.

Brilliant film

“Haha yeah, it’s a genuine concern”

 

[Sassy Colin]

Am I the only one who finds these comics a bit meh? Not just this one but I've been trying to get into them all season. Just not impressed, maybe I'm not a guardian type after all.

They certainly aren't as hilarious as some people make them out to be.

 

[GhastlyHun]

Well there are as different tastes in humor as in all things.

 

[Sassy Colin]

They are mildly amusing, not multiple green smiley rip snortingly hilarious.

 

[GhastlyHun]

For me it's exactly his understated kind of humor that, at times, has the power to really crack me up with actual audible laughter ^^

 

[Classical Mechanic]

green smiley rip snortingly hilarious.

I don't find them funny either but humour is subjective.

The Notts County manager popping up again

 

[redman5]

It's excellent satire that gives us the chance to laugh at ourselves, & at others. The Kompany/Salah piece, & the 'Bullseye' one with Jim Bowen showing Klopp what he 'could' have won, both had me chuckling very loudly.

I get the impression he's not a big Liverpool fan. Karius as the streaker though, and Kane in VvD's pocket

[Dumbstar]

Not a major fan but that was the best cartoon I've seen from him.

"Ere boss, you better look at this"

He's a liverpool fan no?

 

[GhastlyHun]

He's a liverpool fan no?

I honestly don't know, but if he is, he certainly doesn't let it show in his comics.

holy feck that pogba/lingard panel is good.

 

[Robertd0803]

The Suarez panel from the worst people in the west was fantastic July 2nd edition I think?

Pogba and Lingard

The comments are where it's at

Well, that was worth waiting for. Brilliant, Mr Squires, on the Gunnersaurus scale, it's a nine.

Sorry but Mr Rees-Mogg no longer accepts decimalised measurements, convert your scale to glorious British imperial marks or be denounced as an unpatriotic Brexit saboteur

In that case, it's two gills, nine groats and a hogshead.. out of seventeen bovates.

...and it's Mr Esquires to you

A more easily digested one this week. Klopp finding Pep's cargo pants, and the players faking disinterest in their failed transfer destinations (Pogba)

This week's last panel is a must read for those who continue to defend the actions of our owners.
