What happened to that rule where you could post up to 4 fixtures or whatever it was? Or has that been scrapped on the basis that many people don't know how to stop at 4?

All the games kick off at 7.45pm for the last round of group games, so one is on ITV1 and the other that doesn't matter is on ITV4 today. They have to kick off at the same time so it's fair to all the teams

I imagine James is writing it up for the main site as we speak

Yeah it's a bit of a gamble, people who don't check their teams before kick off tomorrow are a bit fucked, assuming players are rested.

World Cup 2002 they went out without scoring, I think. They were defending world champions at that point

Ibra subbed!?

No, he was in a shirt and jacket, looked fairly smart tbh. Train was for Kings Cross but it stopped everywhere on the way, so obviously couldn't tell where he was going. Guy he was with was probably a representative of something, I have no idea what he would need an Owen shirt for - maybe it was that Swiss fella who's in love with Owen's represntative or soemthing and Wise gave him that as a gift? We could guess all day tbh, but it's probably nothing.

Saw Dennis Wise at Central this afternoon with a signed Owen shirt and some tall bloke, picture to follow

What's up your arse Tony?

Big Sam's reign of terror here only has 1 highlight: And no, unsurprisingly, it's not a football clip.

Tord says PARDON Good times.

What's the latest with Berbatov? Is he stull fucking off or has he been persuaded to stay?

Probably Spurs and Spurs' Reserves

How do you know he wasn't. Know him do you? I also realise its highly unlikely Emre went for that but it might be higher than you'd expect. From what I've heard we went in for Turan offering Emre + cash. Fener found out and put in a higher offer than Galatasaray valued Emre and he went there. He wasn't even at the club when we sold Dyer He wasn't at tottenham when he got them Ramos either. Oh. My. Word. Go and take a look at yourself for the love of all that is holy Me? Whats your problem? I'm just saying you can't say he wasn't unless you know. So you think it's quite likely that someone not associated with the club helped us get a higher transfer free from another club that he has nothing to do with. Seriously?

Probably too tired like he was this time last year tbh

Gerrard: You liked scoring in red, didn't you Gareth la'? One of us, One of us...

Exactly. Good to hear more and more fans are as realistic as me. Bet you're a blast in the pub before the match. Well if you'd ever been like. Oh he's been to plenty, at the stadium of s****. typical. denial are we?? I'm certainly not denial no.. mackems.gif hope so for your sake from more disappointment When we go through a shit spell are you happy or sad?

If Joleon Lescott left the Premiership I would be inconsolable, it would be on a par with when Steve Froggatt left.

Surely that's a contradiction? Unless you want them to sign players that aren't as good as the ones they already have and their fans go into a mass frenzy (Also known as the Diane effect) Huh? You've lost me. You're saying 2 into 3 doesn't go but you're also saying they will have difficulties due to the added strain of Europe. The solution to that is to buy more players, as you alluded to, but short of them buying players worse than their current first 11 there's obviously going to be selection issues.

No way was Ramage on 20k, I wouldn't have paid him 20 peanuts. Other than that I agree we've probably trimmed the bill sufficiently (plus Smith)
