But it never stays on the deck. Someone always hoofs. If everyone was as composed and good on the ball as Cabaye and Marveaux have been we wouldn't be. The prospect of those 2 and Ben Arfa linking up together is something I'm pretty excited about. + Tiote and Obertan.

Has been coming...

Likewise.

It's on one of our main soccer channels so I would assume any "soccer" bar.

Investigated this, and this is her on the right: http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4087/5189609514_bd23ea42d8.jpg That must be it. We've figured it out. Well played Peter.

Why all of these questions about people being left out of the squad? Sometimes you just rest players man.

how long until kick off then? like two hours?

What a novel idea.

Anyone left to play in this one?

How can the journos say that there was already a contract on the table months and months ago and Joey says there is not? Who's right? The world will never know.

Did you have a stopwatch ready?

This could be a good move in the end. I think it might help us play a better style of football. He seems to quickly want to pick out a deep, long cross, when now we may be more reliant on players like Obertan who would much rather play it on the deck.

Seems like the transfer market is finally starting to heat up a bit, could be good news for us.

Thought this was over with, ugh.

I should also state for the record that Timber Joey is an actual lumberjack (although I'm sure much more part-time now that they are in MLS). He's like fourth or fifth generation lumber dude.

It is the only MLS stadium actually in the downtown area. They are the best support in the league to be honest. Everything is connected to the public transport and is in a central location. yeah. they're replaying their game on tv now and showed some lumberjack guy chainsawing a log of wood pitch side. mental. Timber Joey is their official "mascot" but he saws off a big plank of wood for every goal they score and at the end of each match (if they score) the team comes over the supporters section (Timbers Army) and celebrates with the fans by holding up the wood and cheering/dancing/etc. They are just really doing some awesome stuff out there with a lot of cordinated chants and what not. They have a pretty awesome one that they do to the Tetris Song. Here's some raw footage from the sideline that shows a bit of the Tetris Song and how crazy loud is gets there after a goal goes in.

Wish more people on this board would read that post.

Don't mean to sound woe-is-us, but we're on a different level of not being able to spend. You're years ahead of us financially. Whatever you think of Mike Ashley, we would be in Everton's position if all our debt was still owed to a commercial bank. ASHLEY APOLOGIST!!!

Think he's due a goal after having a pretty fruitful preseason. Fancy him to knock one in either at Scunthorpe or against Fulham.

52 this week, not too shabby for the first week. My defense let me down a lot though. Three of 'em each had 1 point. Silva (20 as captain), Krul (7), and Suarez (7) saved my ass this week. Going to throw Given (Wolves) on in front of Krul (Fulham) this week.

In the entire Football League?

Friedel had no chance there.

Rooney's best quality is that he only takes so much shit before he drops as deep as he has to to get the ball back for Man U.

Really like Defoe's style of play. Not afraid of taking a shot which I love.
