    RIP sale thread.

    If the proofreading of a simple statement is anything to go by, the Profitable Group is off to a roaring start. Just like Ashley's email to David Craig.
  2. You can get as much as 8/1 for halftime draw, fulltime England.
  3. For every mong they interview talking shite, there will be at least three people who give a considered, thoughtful judgement. However, sky sports news choose never to show these people.
  4. I knew what he meant!
  5. Given's Irish and doesn't play for us any more. Yes, that's what he was saying. Given out (of the) situation. I think.

  7. We need a manager... surely that would have to be Dave, what with him being administrator, leading poster, and having an incredibly deep, audible voice to shout instructions out in? (okay, I made one of those up)
  8. England games normally get jumbled in the "other games" thread, but seeing as the Irish got their own thread I reckon we England fans should anarl. Surely a routine win tonight, against Andorra - although they adopt a 5-4-1 which can be hard to break down sometimes. Gary Neville(!) is set to replace Glen Johnson who is one yellow away from a suspension, David Beckham is tipped to start in a central midfield role with Barry suspended, and Peter Crouch could come in for Emilr Heskey who is also one booking away from a ban. Green Neville Upson Terry© A.Cole Walcott Beckham Lampard Gerrard Crouch Rooney is the predicted team... kickoff is at 8.15pm tonight and it's on ITV1.
  9. I think plenty of people will be interested but most people wouldn't have the time to go travelling around the country to do this, which is a real shame because the whole thing sounds pretty damn good.
  10. It looked like a rocket in my still rather inebriated state man. I remember the place - an empty bar at Leeds Garforth holiday inn, with only my dad, three old women and a young lad wearing a Derby top for company. Our screams when it went in made one of the old biddies spill her drink. Had to offer her another tonic water.
  11. Nah, he always tried; fair play to him on that front. He was just garbage, and the club and management should have noticed this... Most people could have told you his legs had gone... he would have been good if he's started one game in every four or five and maybe came off the bench to break the play up late in the game. But you simply cannot have a pensioner like him starting every game.
  12. David Edgar's rocket against Man United - best new year's hangover cure ever. Felt so happy.
  13. I'd have no problem with him staying as long as he wasn't starting every week btw, although you just know that would SO be the case.
  14. Would like him gone; but not in a nasty way - for all those players who didn't seem arsed he did always give his all and give a shit. And yes, I know his best was horribly short, but it's not his fault our squad was so small he was playing every week, was it? I for one wouldn't boo him should he return to St James in the future.
  15. Much better than most really. But it's a bit of a discredit to Kaka as on his day he's absolutely brilliant. Shame the last few seasons he hasn't really hit those heights he had previously. Although then again I really have a dislike for Real Madrid so I hope he doesn't really do anything of note. Kaka's superb, but I think Zidane is the best player I've seen. Never saw enough of Ronaldo at his peak to be able to say whether he was any better or worse. Trust me. No matter how good Zidane was, Ronaldo was better. To each is own, but I disagree. Zidane at his prime was a better footballer than Ronaldo at his prime. Both absolutely mind-fuckingly amazing, but Zidane edges it for me. How old are you? 21, so yeah, possibly a bit too young to really have an opinion, but I've seen quite a bit of both players on video after as well. Like madras says though, they obviously are different players. The fact that I'd prefer Zidane may very well be because he is more "my" type of player. I never loved Zidane for some reason. I don't know why. I'm much more of an effective striker kinda guy. Ronaldo ftw. No wonder you don't like me.

    But there are three or four they are "talking to".
  17. I thought Oxford went up via the playoffs? Or was that Torquay, I always confuse those two.
  18. Agreed, especially for the Blue Square Premier clubs as someone mentioned a few posts ago. I don't known the numbers but I'd imagine a few at least will be relying on the Setanta money.

    95% of the users on these boards would be preferable to him. Who's in the other 5% like? The thick ones, and the ones with about as much common sense as a doorstop. You were in the 95% if that's what you're asking.

  21. I might start a "first match of the season sweepstake" thread nearer to the time. Peterborough away, you heard it here first.

    Where the fuck is he anyway? He hasn't been on for ages. Does he have one of those 'lives' or something? Last Active: Today at 01:27:28 PM

    oldtype will be loving this, some of his much-lauded Korean players might well end up playing for us at last!
