What on earth.

Wonder how people's opinions of the two players will change if Taylor opts not to take this any further. If the rumours are true about what happened then Taylor would look a right tit in a public court of law. The press will be all over it. You can just see it - first piece of evidence for the defence, a text from Mr S Taylor: "Alreet lass? As Andy is doon in Wales if ya feel a bit lonely ah'd be happy to come roond and part ya curtains like. Just like the old times eh pet." I think he might be wise to let it be tbh..... As i'm sure you know, you cant go around breaking peoples jaws no matter how many texts your girlfriend receives. Not lawfully anyway.

This is the funniest thing I have ever seen in my entire life. I just laughed hysterically for about 10 minutes, brilliant.

Gaping maw?

It's a great sneer.

Germans, Russians, Americans, Australians, many nationalities really...

Good result, not an entirely convincing performance. Williamson, jonas and Colo looking good, Caroll and Best looking woeful.

It is clearly been done to gain a fitness edge - there is no social esteem benefit a top flight footballer can get from anti-obesity drugs. Coke was idiocy and not cheating (and therefore he should have got off a lot lighter than the likes of Jaap Stam), but this is idiocy and cheating so no longer has any sympathy from me. It depends to what extent, which is why I asked. I don't see the problem unless he's one on one with someone like Nolan. An anti-obesity drug will increase the whole energy burning cycle, which will make him fitter during a match Aye, cheating then. As a related subject. Imagine bringing in a drug lift in sport, and just letting them become X-Man United ahohoho. But seriously, imagine it. Don't like the idea of 19 year old sportsmen being made to wake up and walk to the bathroom and back every hour just to stop them dying of a heart attack in their sleep personally. name me one footballer that needs to do that? Or one footballer that would ever need to be half as fit as a cyclist in the Tour De France? The reason they have to be woken up is because their heart rate is so slow is due to excessive training and fitness regimes leaving their hearts as huge fists of muscle. The respiration rate of a cyclist in full training means his heart has to be a million times fitter than a dude (say kevin Nolan) who 'runs' about a pitch for 90 minutes on a weekend. You can't make the comparison.

I wonder what he was trying to do. Order a dandelion and burdock, and a pint of guiness for Kevin Nolan.

If he can do an overhead kick, he can replace Nolan.

Snap him up.

2 - 0 ranger!

silly phil.

I thought the other 2 journalists + Woolnough could have prodded Beasley a bit more regarding Ashley. Was a bit of a damp squid considering how fucking passionate Beasley has been in the past on the show defending Ashley. http://arachnid.pepperdine.edu/grunion/images/updates/2007/ShaneSquid.jpg

I haven't read the details, but I think it's more likely it was over-the-counter without prescription. Over the counter chest relief? Unless it means chesty coughs then I don't really know. And if it was something mild like a cough or a sore throat, would you really think the footballing powers that be would ban something that's in lemsip? Okay, it's stupid, but seeing as they've accepted it was accidental, I can't see how 9 months is at all appropriate.

He took some medicine containing a 'non performance enhancing' drug, which relieved chest problems, which was prescribed (presumably by his doctor). I don't see how this is his fault tbh, my doctor gives me pills for a tight chest, I take them. Not really any questions asked tbh.

So everyone?

Aye , it used to be risky when he wasn't used to the pace of english football, but he seems to act faster now and it really show. Inevitable that he comes away with the ball, usually playing a good cross or keeping possession. Seems to combine well with anyone who can pass too.

What kind of ridiculous statement is that? Intimidation?

How do you explain Quaresma's brilliant performances in The Champions League? A competition Zlatan has failed to score in, he was nothing short of brilliant against Chelsea.
