  1. Personally, I rate both of these more than I do SMc; if he didn't currently have the job, he'd be my third choice. The fact he has, makes me less sure of the benefits of change. Continue this form through the next four games, though, and I can't see us sticking with him for the Jan window.
  2. John Carver, best coach in the non-league? I think he would complement the nearby hillock and make a smashing pair: Tit Hill and Tit Heed.
  3. If there's any truth to the old saying: "there was never an angry man that thought his anger unjust," then 'random thicko cunts', the angry ones at least, probably think they are correct. Which, no doubt, makes them think it is people who don't share their remarkable insight into the human condition, vagaries of supporting sports teams, and the 'certainties' of the business world, who are the actual random thicko cunts.
  4. Not that it makes much difference to a cack week (technical term...), but still pissed off that, for the second time in recent weeks, another 90+ minute goal from ManU robbed me of a low probability correct score: Schweinehunds! That said, most will have benefitted from the away win (Man U now nicked Arsenal's crown as most plentiful supplier of points to our league, btw).
  5. 'Kin hell. Here we are again, week 13 of what, I now have to admit, is looking a long and tortuous season. My optimism and patience has run out. Even the prospect of a good win in the next game, restoring confidence in the players, seeing some good football all feels a bit unlikely and hollow. I briefly enjoyed rekindling my love for NUFC, expanding the 'anthropomorphism', I now just want to kick its fucking head in.
  6. If he and/or Sissoko don't play well we're absolutely f***ed, every single time. Yep, unfortunately we seem totally reliant on one/both having a blinder in order to turn in a decent overall performance.
  7. Dont think we have even had a corner...............at home ffs Err we've had at least 2 I can think of. 4 shots 0 on target, according to BBC. 8 shots for Foxes, 3 on target.
  8. This is your second set of predictions for this week; probably best to delete one before 12:30
  9. ? I think some of his accusations of racism are not fair, but calling Chinese people as a 'subspecies' is blatant racism. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/09/06/morrissey-chinese-people-_n_706471.html Anyway. I don't believe he was calling people in China sub-human because of their ethnicity, or 'racial' (whatever the fuck that really is) difference. I think he, in his usual unbowed fashion, is saying endemic behaviour of this sort (skinning cats and dogs alive) is beyond the pale of humanity. I don't think he is stupid enough to believe that all Chinese people have the same view on this issue.
  10. After 16 sets of predictions our group guesses (median home and away goals, turned into results) look like this--lots of 2-1’s this week! I’ve also shown the range of results predicted. Watford 0-2 Man Utd (Home Win 1: Draw 2: Away Win 13) Chelsea 2-0 Norwich (Home Win 14: Draw 2: Away Win 0) Everton 2-1 Aston Villa (Home Win 9: Draw 5: Away Win 2) Newcastle 2-1 Leicester (Home Win 6: Draw 6: Away Win 4) Southampton 2-1 Stoke (Home Win 12: Draw 3: Away Win 1) Swansea 2-1 Bournemouth (Home Win 9: Draw 5: Away Win 2) West Brom 0-3 Arsenal (Home Win 1: Draw 1: Away Win 14) Man City 2-1 Liverpool (Home Win 14: Draw 1: Away Win 1) Spurs 2-1 West Ham (Home Win 13: Draw 3: Away Win 0) Crystal Palace 2-1 Sunderland (Home Win 13: Draw 0: Away Win 3) Our game and the Chelsea game have the most nominations, four each. No nominations yet for the games at Swansea, Man City, and Palace.
  11. Think I rather be called Danny Drinkwater than (fellow Foxes midfielder) Michael Cain: Tunnel conversation with Colo... "You know, I’d almost forgotten what your eyes looked like. They’re still the same. Pissholes in the snow"
  12. Congratulations dude, hope you & yours have a great day! With that in mind, I advise a slight change to your aspirations: 3 pints before your wedding
  13. :lol: first sight of this: literally nearly pissed myself laughing!
  14. There are two or three of these where even the more miserable of us (you know who you are...) would struggle to not laugh out loud. Top work folks.
  15. Thanks to Interpolic's instruction, perseverance and patience...here's a neater version of the table (same info). http://imgur.com/OjQ6D1R.jpg
  16. Stuck up b******s !!! What's wrong with butlins like ? These footballers live in a different world to us ordinary folk Butlins? BUTLINS?? Posh b****** I was actually just experiencing lifestyle envy over timeEd's post! I want to raise a Bud/say Hi to Christine... (come to think of it, I'm actually jealous of Frank Jnr... though not for his dosh or talent).
  17. Ok, I'll make-do with this--apologies for wonky columns. I applied Kaizero's query to three random week's worth of results (weeks 3, 7, and 11). As you can see, 2-1 and 1-1 faired best; averaging 17.3 and 17.0 respectively. I doubled the score for the game which had the most nominations, that week. I've included the 'Group Guess' (median of goals for both teams) and the actual average for those weeks, for comparison. Points Wk3 Wk7 Wk11 Ave two-one 9 21 22 17.3 one-one 28 13 10 17.0 one-nil 9 10 17 12.0 one-two 10 10 7 9.0 nil-one 14 12 10 12.0 Grp Guess 14 17 13 14.7 Act Ave 15 19 15 16.3
  18. I've looked at Kaizero's query. Can anybody tell me how to paste a table into one of these messages?
  19. Watford 1-1 Man Utd Chelsea 3-2 Norwich Everton 1-1 Aston Villa Newcastle 3-2 Leicester Southampton 2-1 Stoke Swansea 2-1 Bournemouth West Brom 1-2 Arsenal Man City 0-1 Liverpool Spurs 1-1 West Ham Crystal Palace 2-1 Sunderland
  20. There's truth and reason in this; i feel reassured. Great post.
  21. Not really, hope the mackems get well and truly hammered! Always. Trumps any other 'grudge'.
