  1. Ha! Or they see us in an 'Undertones' way as their perfect cousin: https://play.google.com/music/preview/Ts3rp3d2eeplonmbqup63sli23m?lyrics=1&utm_source=google&utm_medium=search&utm_campaign=lyrics&pcampaignid=kp-songlyrics
  2. Well, Len you'll be happy to know that my extensive scientific research has uncovered that: "The colour blue is used quite extensively in the Old Testament to describe ... various hangings in ... holy places." Not that I'm getting desperate/clutching at straws or owt, but I reckon this means we're going to murder the poor sods at Gallowgate (Hanging Street).
  3. I have at Joker; made me laugh then as basically our team got 15 seconds of encouragement followed by a brief insult on the end. Self-defeating, surely?
  4. Seems to me like the time of year to keep focussed on what is really important, grind out results and stay realistic. With that in mind, we defo need to reclaim our position of having the best goal difference in the top four divisions. A 5-0 win
  5. What the f*** is that? It has bben a while, tbf.
  6. Can't see it, unfortunately. He's had a couple of family tradegies recently and looked as if he really appreciated how the club/his team mates rallied around (must increase his commitment). Plus they are as likely to be promoted. That said, I am sure we could offer a better contract would be seen as a better long-term option. It is a definite no. I read a great article by George Caulkin today in which he basically says his father's last wish was for Antony to get Brighton promoted and talks with huge warmth and appreciation of his teammates unexpectedly all coming to his father's funeral. There's an insight into father and son football banter, when he describes that if he hadn't played well his dad would simply tell him straight 'You were shit.' Made me smile and no doubt him too, despite his apparent sadness.
  7. Reliable source, but given the China debacle I'm not holding my breath.
  8. Seconded; plus would have walked a persistence award or should surely have won the repetitive jobby. Some of the shortlists are 'Trumpian'. Also would like to show appreciation for newcomer Happinesstan (enjoyed reading your thoughts) and some of the other recipients of negativity. Not many votes means it is hard to draw any conclusions re how you are received by the majority; hope it doesn't put you off, #broadchurch.
  9. The Daily Express have produced an end of season prediction, based on the calculations of a 'super computer' from Football Web Pages (i.e. somebody with Excel and a rudimentary understanding of statistics...) which takes account of results in games played and relative strengths of teams left to play etc. http://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/752167/Championship-predicted-table-super-computer-promotion-relegation-sportgalleries
  10. I remember, when we used to sit in the government yard in Trenchtown Oba - obaserving the hair-less gen-ee-us As he outplays our poor opponents, with both feet. No Shintsy, no cry, no Shintsy, no cry Ere, Makem baiter, don't shed no tears, No, Shintsy, no cry.
  11. Was his name Ian? nowt is forgotten here...
  12. He built/bought a canny few of them houses, in a sort of Owen-Brookside Close affair. Probably helped, in the popularity stakes, for a while. Wonder how long it was before they stopped inviting him round? Especially when there was footy on... 'Oh no! It's our Mikey HIDE. He'll be all Alan Partridge on downers, again. Or worse, it'll be more of: "Oh and I said to Gary, remember when I scored against the Argies ah? Ah? It was a good run, but a poor run, if you know what I mean... Love that I was a player with two feet... Though I do miss being on my own out there, with ten mates. Don't you Gary, Gary?..."' The only noise was a faint squeak, through the letterbox--'I know you're in there. I've got eyes in the facial part of my head'-- as once grateful relatives quietly hunkered down behind the sofa. (With thanks to the words of the great man himself--via the 22 stupid Michael Owen Quotes on Sabotagetimes.com).

  15. Got any numbers you'd care to share, even if you don't think they'll come-up??
  16. Interesting first 11. Hope we see some decent crosses with the mismatch between our centre forwards (fuck me that's plural) and their centre backs. HTL!
  17. Cheers Triggs the repayment of your information has been received in full.
  18. was thinking the same. It all seems very public, makes me suspicious re their motives.
  19. Clear to all that they would be mad to let him go, but if he really wants to leave--and this may have unsettled him enough for this to be true--then as long as WH keep wanting and aren't using him as a patsy/option to negotiate with a preferred choice, then I think he will go.
  20. We are due to give someone a right good spanking. May as well be these. 5-0.
  21. The return of cavalier football, with a bit of bite, GTFI! http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f207/INCspot/cyrano-de-bergerac_08-c-benoit-barbier.jpg
