AyeDubbleYoo Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 I thought Urdu was Pakistani, but on wikipedia-ing it you're right. I thought Pakistan used to be part of India though didn't it? Yes, India was divided up in the 40s. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest hydeous Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 Sikhs are from Punjab which was divided during the partition. The few sikhs in pakistan speak Punjabi and possibly Urdu, but the majority of Sikhs (19 mill in India and half a mill in the UK) speak Punjabi, not Urdu.

Although Urdu is the official language of Pakistan, Punjabi is widely spoken, which isn't a surprise considering the Punjab region makes up over half the population of Pakistan Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 Looks like he is going to the African Cup of Nations (provided he stays injury-free until then): Confirming his side's plans ahead of the African Cup of Nations Finals next month, Nigeria coach Stephen Keshi said on Wednesday that he expected Newcastle's Shola Ameobi to be part of his 23 man squad. Nigerian media reports clam that the Magpies striker and other European-based players have been set a deadline of Friday January 4th to join up with their colleagues in a training camp out in Portugal. Confirmed squads are then required to be submitted by the following Wednesday, ahead of the Finals which get underway on January 19th.

thomas Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 Glad he scored but viewed in the larger context there's no way we should ever be reduced to hoping he'd be the one to unlock the defense of a team in 19th place Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deuce Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 The man, the myth, the legend. Shola's been rather poor the last few times he's come on, but he was vital today. Made all the right plays. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 As the match progressed, we obviously needed to throw him on. Had a feeling he'd do something, but so chuffed that he's got us that win. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest bluegeordie Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 I've had Stroller earmarked for the glue factory more times than I care to remember, but credit where credit is due - that was a superb goal, which was brilliantly thought through, and perfectly executed. I actually think that he chose the only way of having a genuine chance of scoring from Marv's pass, as the original angle was against a first-time shot being successful. Despite Stroller's blindingly obvious shortcomings, I actually think that he plays better with Ba or Cisse than they play with each other, mainly because he gets his head to the long (aimless) ball more often than either of them, which leaves Ba or Cisse free to try to make something of the flick-ons or scraps.

Beren Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 Thought he was superb (yes, superb!) in his role as last 20-25 minutes cameo striker. He's a very useful squad player for that, and for mixing it up when we need to go long/hold up the ball higher up the pitch in very specific circumstances.
