  1. Aye, he had a couple of Sunday league moments in an otherwise decent performance. But but, I thought we were only allowed to point out the negatives on this forum
  2. Anyone checked out his debut video vs Blackburn? His first attempt at dribbling down the wing, just
  3. Saw this article about AFC Wimbledon's manager and his view on the way clubs are run, might interest some http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2011/aug/03/terry-burton-afc-wimbledon Say's he doesn't think they can progress much further than league 1 as they aren't prepared to go into debt and run the club at a loss. Fat Mike has obviously his selfish reason's behind his dealings with our clubs cash, but could well benefit the club in the long run, especially if some kind of regulations & point deductions come into play in regards to clubs debts, which personally I think could eventually happen. Point's deducted for clubs running at a loss after a 5 year period and a wage cap.... idea's needed to be put out there to save the game from being crippled by money.
  4. So when's the game on? I'm assuming it's Thursday the 21st at 00:30 BST from the last few messages right?? If so the thread title needs changing for 'sho, I've been gearing up for a post-pub Smith goalfest tonight EDIT: Hold on someones mentioned 01:30?!?

    Football pet hates

    Never looked at this thread before but for me, > When linesmen give throw ins when the ball clearly hasn't gone COMPLETELY over the line.... Just a little slither of ball over the line and ITS OUT OF PLAY. f*** YOU LINESMAN

    Steven Taylor

    Anybody notice the new episode of Steven Taylors acting school he pulled out of the bag yesterday? Classic 'quick face hold imitation' move after a foul on drogba. The boy's got talent
  8. Ssssh, don't tell that lad off twitter.
  9. His managerial record so far is pretty fking impressive; Anothosis Games played: 109 Won: 73 Drew: 26 Lost: 9 Win ratio: 66.97% Goals For: 218 - Goals Against: 83 (difference +135) Olympiakos Played: 6 Won: 5 Drew: 1 Lost: 0 Win Ratio: 83.33% Goals for: 9 - Goals Against: 0 (difference +9) Georgia Played: 10 Won: 5 Drew: 5 Lost: 0 Win Ratio: 50.00% Goals For: 10 - Goals Against: 5 (difference +5) The main advantage of managing the clubs he's previously managed is that he's both a national citizen of Cyprus and obviously Georgia, therefore knowing players inside out and obviously being fluent in Greek & Georgian must help tremendously . To qualify for the Euros with Georgia would be a MASSIVE achievement, and would probably top being the first manager to take a Cypriot team to the group stages of the CL which was a massive massive achievement in itself. Legend in the making
  10. Knee-jerk thread on the Celtic forum but Forster getting a lot of mixed feedback regardless http://www.talkceltic.net/forum/celtic-chat/99282-fraser-forster.html, good shot stopper, poor command of his area... sound familiar? His experience up there will be crucial however and gives him the edge over Krul if Harps was to step down
  11. Just finished putting together a little 4-4, Tiote treat - uploaded it to 'the tube' but don't think it comes up in searches yet. Just type in www.youtube.com/ my username on here, (just incase direct linking to there isn't allowed) Enjoy
  12. 16th Feb 1999 - vs Leeds away, a 1-0 win, Nobby Solano scored in a pretty unmemorable match. What stands out from memory is I was sat in the Leeds stand, and remember a few toon fans getting in a scrap for celebrating our goal in the home end, people ended up rolling down the top tier of the West stand. That and also Louis Saha starting up front; Was quite an odd Starting XI & bench
  13. Shola should be there talking instead of Beckham. Every nation likes hats.
  14. That was gold. Wasn't his picture used when explaining about the entertainment of the league as well? Shola = The Entertainer
  15. Wants to be closer to his kids in Cardiff doesn't he? Very slim chance he'd end up here.
  16. Nice one, cheers! Am gonna be in Freemantle to start with, got family there. Main purpose of the trip is to travel though so will hopefully get around the place. Need to work at some point, most of the work in my field is Sydney way so I can see myself ending up there. Can't wait Good news about the TV Coverage Gonna be strange watching us play late evening each time! Need to find a pub/bar with a decent following in Perth

    Aussie Mags?

    Off to Aus for a year or so next week. Are there many Aussie mags on here? Any Supporters clubs? Anyone know the best places to watch the toon in the major cities? I'll probably be traveling west to east at some point as well, so would be good to know info for anywhere in Aus. I've heard there's decent coverage out there, like football choice here where you get to pick the highlights you want to see, but you can do that for live games apparently? Any info much appreciated
  18. Temuri Ketsbaia become the first manager in Cypriot football history to lead a Cypriot club into the Champions League group stages with a 3-1 aggregate win over Olympiakos. :clap: :clap: Congrats Temuri and Anorthosis Famagusta. He's got legend status out there.
  19. KK pretending to use waterbottles as binoculars after a dodgy call by the linesman who was miles away?
  20. Mine had the TV logo cropped out + The red button cropped out. And it was a bit of a mish mash, with under a minute of footage -- still got pulled. Pretty odd like. Oh well.
  21. Got that sung at me by around 10 different people sat in my toon top at the service station on my way home yesterday. s**** football team that drew 1-1 on their own turf hey.
  22. Aye, Beye would have had it covered as well. Legged it to right back and ended up clattering a player in a dangerous position. Was worried he was going to lose it for us in the second half. He's NOT a defender. Push him up!
  23. 'Be fuming if this goes through tbh. Solid defender. Need him in our ranks.
