When is the next England game?

Tennis elbow, probably.

Owen off, Martins on. Can't complain. He really injured? How?

2-1 Roma/Juventus 2 from Totti in about five minutes.

Fucking Zoggy.

He's somewhere out there.

Nice save

Now even the big black guy is in a Newcastle top.

Beye looking good.

Not in the team selection. No idea.

I went from pissed that I woke up for this to delighted.

non issue now. Not even on the bench.

See I think that would be cool if it was obvious that they were genuinly interested. If it was just to humour you though I can imagine it getting frustrating. What do you think would happen if FIFA was run by America? Nah, if someone is genuinely interested, I'll spend the entire day telling them everything I've learned so far. But after that Birmingham game, I just wanted to talk about how terrible the performance was. See, without using a lot of USA equivalents, that was going to be impossible. I honestly don't even know what FIFA does, so I have no idea what would happen if we ran it. There would be cheerleaders and commercials within days, though.

As I've gotten more and more interested in your football, I've been calling it football more and more. It's pretty much involuntary, but I catch hell for that. I remember when Birmingham beat Newcastle in the FA cup, I had to go to work immediately afterwards. Being pissed off and not being able to talk about it with anyone without a long ass "Ok, first you have to understand that Birmingham are from the Championship" "What's that?" "Ok...over there they have several tiers of play..." etc etc was very frustrating.

Try being a fan in the States. Wait, don't. You'd lose your shit.

The way we played, they'll finish the season with 2.

Nice dribbling from Diarra. Would have loved to have seen him here.

Adebayor with a fucking hat trick.

4-0 Arsenal. They look really good today.

At least Eduardo looks like crap today.

Are we that much worse than them?

Is this the same Derby from Monday?

These are the types of games that make me miss Nobby. Milner has ideas going forward, but his crossing still needs a lot of work.
