    Aren't you in america though? Would be a shambles if it all got rearranged for a bit more money, I agree.

    First two points sound fairly shit, third one essential based on my low knowledge of la liga. Problem, as ever, with financial controls is that unless everyone (every country that is) takes them on at once it could be a nightmare. Bizarre that you have to tell businesses they're not allowed to cripple themselves mind.
  3. The loan system shouldn't exist. I've rattled on about this a few times. Can't understand how it's a good thing for football.

    What would that actually mean though?

    Jonas Gutierrez

    He improved a lot when Routledge came in as a lot of defensive focus was taken off him. His final product is nowhere near as good as Routledge's (on the basis of the last half season) even if he is much better at a lot of things. I think Jonas has had a decent season, he was poor a lot of the time pre-Jan though, several times at the start of the season didn't look as though he gave a fuck. Seems to have got into it again though, fair play to him, could be essential next season.

    I'm going to go out on a limb and say that's my new favourite joke about rape. That's amazing.

    What's this player amoritisation shit then? Just some accounting trick?
  9. Haha I was thinking the same thing about FIFA 94. I thought they were a made up country. And you claim to hate yanks. You're not so dissimilar you know...
  10. Head to Shepherds Bush and you can't go wrong. I don't know the area particularly well but there are loads of pubs, if you're feeling unimaginative there are big o'neill's and walkabouts, you won't go thirsty. Seemingly none of them open until 12pm on a Sunday! Fucks sake! I'm heading there for 11...sure we'll be able to find somewhere
  11. Pretty sure that Sheff Weds/Palace and the Blackpool games are the ones on telly. Makes sense.

    It's ok in terms of possession retention. In terms of putting a player through he's often unambitious and nowhere near as good as the likes of Routledge and Guthrie. He's great at getting in the right position to set players away, just doesn't quite have the quality or vision to do it a lot of the time.
  14. Carlisle away? Fat lot of fucking use that it. that's the only league ground further away from me than SJP.
  15. Because the ref gave them everything. Referee also gave Barca a ten man advantage for 70 minutes. Shut yourself and stop complaining. If he hadn't raised his hands, he'd have still been on the pitch. It's his own f***ing fault for being stupid enough to push the player away with his hand. And if Barca players hadn't come into contact with Inter players they would not have opportunity to dive. Do not let minor infractions from players excuse vast incompetence for highly paid and qualified referees. The ref had no other option man. He raised his hands above the neck - EVERYONE knows that's a sending off - he shouldn't have f***ing done it. You can shield the ball without putting the palm of your hand on someone's face. There would be numerous reds in every game if we always applied the rules that way. It was just barely above the neck and Motta didn't even look at him while he was doing it, how's he know he was going to touch his face? He's just trying to hold the opponent off. If Busquets hadn't thrown himself on the floor then he wouldn't have even got a yellow. if you don't know where someone is you use your arm not the hand but yes biscuits did go overbaord, as did eto'o monets earlier to get pedro booked. the difference is that milans defensive tactics are built round underhand play (as they were against us those few years ago and as italians have done for years). the only way round it is for ANY deliberate foul to be yellow carded. It was Inter's tactics Milan went out ages ago during Rooney's awesome period, I'm not sure if Newcastle have played against Milan plus they weren't that under handed Bellamy was a twat and Shearer lost his rag Did you watch the second leg? Dirtiest, most underhanded team we've ever played.

    José Mourinho

    Pretty much this. Think he's a brilliant manager and probably the best out there in world football. Don't think you can look past Ferguson for that title tbh. Love Mourinho though, brilliant character and a brilliant manager. I don't think Ferguson is as good as Mourinho is tactically. But he makes up for it with better man managing and getting the best out of his players. Definitely between the two of them for me, but Ferguson edges it. We shall have to agree to disagree. Obviously Ferguson has been there and done that, but right now at this moment in time I would pick Mourinho over him. I agree about the right now but I'd be surprised if at the end of their respective careers I think Jose's been better.

    José Mourinho

    Respect him. Dislike him though, actually find him a bit boring a lot of the time.
  18. His 'shooting' with his head is absolutely fantastic, best by a mile in the CCC and I can't think of anyone who's a lot better in the prem either. Flick ons not always so great, looks a bit random at times. We'll need him next year.
  19. What are they supposed to do? Bomb on and let the best attacking team in the world stroll past them? If they'd done that and got beaten it would have been as naive as fuck. Just to clarify, I hate Inter. Partly to annoy mattis.
  20. So just as I'm congratulating myself and about to hedge, it turns out I backed them by mistake. Stupid cunt. Bojan you short cunt
  21. 14/1 to win full stop on betfair.
