This poll is not accountable for plebbians. How's that FIFA league of yours coming on?

imo he's defnitely one of the top 3 LB's I've ever watched, easily world class He most certainly was. When? and for how long?

Fuckbeans. I voted Boumsong but didn't notice Luque. Wanna CHANGE.

Watching the Salzburg Lazio game. The 6th/5th officials are pointless as they never make a call. They'd be a great idea if they ever actually did something.

welll... http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/n/notts_county/8391481.stm

The seeding was based on the October 2009 FIFA/Coca-Cola World Ranking and seven squads joined hosts South Africa as seeded teams for the Final Draw

yey we are seeded. Fifa has confirmed England will be one of eight seeded teams when the World Cup draw takes place on Friday. They will thus avoid favourites Spain and Brazil, who are two of the other seeded sides, in the group stage. Argentina, Germany, Netherlands, holders Italy and hosts South Africa make up the remaining seeded nations. The 32 qualifiers will be assembled into eight groups on Friday in Cape Town when the draw is made for next summer's tournament from 1745 GMT. England are ranked only ninth in the Fifa world rankings, but their impressive qualification campaign has been rewarded. Portugal, ranked fifth, and France (seventh) had problems making the big tournament in South Africa and have thus missed out on the seedings.

C'MAAANNNNNNNNNNNNN

Well it's assumed just because that is the way it has been previously. I'm not sure there is any seeding nature to the pots other than pot 1, it's just to maintain a geographical split. To be honest, the pots should be entirely seeded, screw splitting them geographically. Just make up rules where teams from the same continent can't be drawn in the same group (bar 2 european teams). It'd basically be like the Champions League draw.

Never actually met one Chelsea fan who is a stuck up c*** unable to discuss football on a normal basis. In return, I've yet to meet a Man U fan who isn't a stuck up c*** unable to dicsuss football on a normal basis. In my experience, true Manchester United fans (i.e. those not born in Singapore, London, Maryland or Trondheim) are quite decent football fans, and pretty talkable. The plastics they attract, though, are absolutely insufferable. Have to add that all true Manchester United fans I have met are all ex-pats (I have never been to Manchester myself...), so might not be a true reflection of the collective. I generally don't much care for many of the Man United fans I met while at Uni (with regards to football chat), whether from Manchester or further afield. They tend to just have the opinion that any football beyond not challenging for the Prem/CL every year isn't worth discussing, and that we've never won anything so whats the point in us existing.

darron goal

So much for Tottenham's weak side hmm?

You'd be delighted if he fucked off? You're bright. Aye, thats what I said. Maybe brighter than you..who knows? Aye, lets get rid of him. I mean, we've conceded less than any other team in the league, with the next best team having conceded 50% more goals, and he's made absolutely no errors this season whatsoever. But let's get rid, he's too quiet. Not just too quiet..just not good enough? Do you think when we get back in the premiership, and heaven forbid we aspire to better things, such as pushing for a European place, that he is good enough? Just my humble opinion, but I certainly dont! This is the exact same discussion I had in the NUMBERWANG striker thread. We're not in the Premiership. We're years away from pushing for a European place. If we want to build and change things up if we get promoted, go for it. By all means throw Krul in net later in the season when we win promotion with 10 games to go, but why shake things up now. I don't think Harper is particularly amazing, but I do think he's one of the best keepers in our (shit, shit) league.

If I was Yaya Touré I'd be glowing right now.

Well that's not true. Ashley is a shithead. There, you see. Bad word.

Which people?

I'd at least say my point was equally as irrelevant to yours This is a silly conversation I agree with the sentiment in that they're not good enough for the Prem, but to say something isn't worth discussing because of that fact would shit on 95% of the threads on here.

Irrelevant to the thread. Ok sorry but who cares who is the No1 now? Does it change our need to replace them or is the prestige of winning the first ever 'N-O Top Striker Before Halfway Through The Season Award' going to help us in some way? Its a lot more relevant than your pointless contribution in all fairness No it isn't.

Irrelevant to the thread.

Embarrasing

'you wouldn't trsut anyone to carry it out' Is that perhaps because there aren't that many people who would want to carry it out?

I totally agree with this. It's just a bit boring is all.

Eh? What you want now? a 10 - 0 win to make it feel less empty? No, that'd do the exact opposite. It'd feel even emptier. It's like on FM when you give yourself £300m and sign Leo Messi for Bournemouth. It's just a little too easy.
