the last touted 'party' on here was the Alan Smith one, wasn't it? I'm sure there was one mentioned for when Butty fucked off too.

What a scoop! Every few months man, "It's Sho Time", "Let's Get This Sho On The Road' or "Let Me Sho The Way" etc pops up on the back page when there's fuck all to fill it. Of course, it's worst in the summer when it's so blatantly obvious there's not even daft rumours to report upon.

Same here. Interpolic? More like MINTerpolic More like lowlightserpolic.

Apologies if it's already been discussed but what's with that rather vague story at the top of nufc.com this morning?

Whilst I agree, he doesn't have a great deal else though, does he?

I think he's a promoted team squad filler or a promotion-chasing team's 20-game third choice midfielder.

The very definition of 5/10. A complete non-entity.

Yep, was gonna say this. Abeid always looked to have potential but Bigi came in and looked like one hell of a better player.

We took a punt, it didn't work out, move him on in that case.

Ah man this will blatantly be entertaining.

Poyet would be a massive step up on Pardew purely based upon how his Brighton side managed to outfight, outpace and hustle past us twice.

When did Buffon get his hands transplanted and replaced with a pair of crisp packets?

Right call by the ref like.

The frig happened there?

Brazil are doing really well here but they could do with a tackle on the pitch.

Wonderful goal.

How is it an 'unusual' Italian goal, Lawro? They fucking battered it long against Japan for 90 minutes.

Fantastic from Balotelli. Reminds me of Sibierski's flick for Dyer against AZ at home, that was just as good. Anyone else?

I absolutely fucking despise Danny Mills. Fuck off and sit next to Clem on that shitty show you do.

Now Balotelli!

this is like the fucking Alamo.

Lawro saying 'The Hulk' is starting to grate on me. Wish he'd grate his fucking tongue on something sharp.

Italy/Japan double. Small single on Italy Balotelli FGS

I had the exact same bet (although £1.25 ew) before you posted this. My Lucky 15 was atrocious, need it to come in.
