  1. Fucking brilliant. For a start I don't have to listen to my dad go on. When I say he hates him, think how much Steven Lubbock's dad hates Michael Barrymore, then double it. From the title, I thought he was said to be coming to St. James' Park-a fate worse than death. He was useless. Utterly useless.
  2. Sausage Raoul? Could have shot someone worth it, like David Cameron, Nick Clegg, Tony Blair..................
  3. As I understand it, the banks lent loads of money to people who shouldn't have been able to get the loans to make quick money, then those loans went sour and the banks lost a whole shitload of cash. In order to stop all the banks going under, governments had to bail out the baks and take on the bad debts, leaving the banks free to sell more dodgy loans, charge customers for walking into their bank and breathing etc. So then the governments have all these debts they had to take off the banks, which broke the back of countries like Greece who had already been spending way beyond their means because they were in the Euro, and basically getting a free ride off Germany and the strong Eurozone countries. And because of the nature of the debts, and the financial markets, if country A goes down the crapper, other country B will suffer as they have loaned country A money, and country A buys a lot of goods from country B. Finally, we have the market speculators who look at the state of a country's finances and reduce the credit rating because either it can't pay the debts, or they want to make a quick buck. All the while the bank executives and stockbrokers build up their portfolios with lower priced shares, get big bonuses and demand further deregulation, and that other people should pick up the bill for all this debt through higher taxes and lower government spending. All this may be wrong, but thats how it seems to me.
  4. Forlan won't happen, no way Levy will pay out silly money for a player of that age bracket and he hyas already said he wants to stay in Spain. Bellamy is a funny one. We already have two streaky midget strikers in Defoe and Keane and two decent left sided options in Bale and Modric. Add to that his questionable attitude and I'm not sure I'd want him. I've missed you too by the way. Thought I read somewhere that Forlan had said he was open to offers from Tottingham. He'd be looking for a mega payout though at this stage of his career I'd imagine. So who do you want to buy? I would think CB would be a priority for you considering Woodgate and King are finished. Micah Richards is filling that void unfortunately, however Dawson and Bassong were impressive last season. I want someone who can plow the lone furrow up front, a big powerful number nine, so we can play 5 in midfield if we need to. 4-4-2 is looking like an ever more outdated system. Dawson is wank, he really is shit, Kevin Scott was better than him. How he got in the England squad over Lescott is a joke. You should sign someone like Ryan Nelsen or Distin. Spurs can have Nelsen for £5m. Had a good world cup and all that. We'll even be open to a bid for Grella and Andrews to bolster your midfield Danny, whilst a £20m bid would be enough to secure the perfect lone striker-Jason Roberts . ha ha I don't think we will be bidding on any of your players any time soon mate. By the way, that Grella is the most talentless clogging thug in the premiership. Useless. I'm surprised you've actually seen him. Getting out of bed in the morning seems to put him out of action for 2 months. He's as bad as Ledley King, who incidently is worse than Givet, Nelsen and Samba. But to get back to Grella, he is a very shit version of Makalele, but then he was a Paul Ince signing, and the only one who has worked out is Robinson.
  5. It did make me laugh when Jack Straw took Condoleezza Rice to Ewood Park when he was Foreign Secretary. God knows what she made of the town, and the whole 'soccerball' experience. It would only be stranger if she had to go to St. Helens for a rugby league game.
  6. He's 'contractually obliged' to be at any rate-Blackburn is his constituency.
  7. Super, smashing, great. Have a speedboat . I'd say Jim Bowen+Matt Smith or whatever the new Doctor Who actor is called. Well they're the only celebrity Blackburn fans I can think of.
  8. Go on a gap year kid. I know it's cliché, but you'll grow up a lot and have a broader reflection on the world in which you live. Plus you'll get to meet interesting girls all over the world and finger them behind unusual bins. In all seriousness, cane the job and save as much as you can, then bugger off to South America with a backpack and an open mind. come back, go to a decent uni, study a course that is interesting enough to keep you keen, but also gives you a grounding in a career. After 3-4 years of Uni, (where 1-2 years will be dossing about and being zany) take a year or so of shitty bar jobs or whatever until you sort out a decent starter level job and then begin to climb the ladder. Find a bird willing to bear your seed and create two little progeny. go on occasional holidays, stay in touch with uni mates, hope your kids don't turn to drugs or promiscuity like you did, then retire as soon as possible and take your now haggard missus somewhere in the country and grow old together. sorted Why do Stoodents that haven't even been to the lakes have to go to South America for a broader reflection of the world? I think it's the sun. Or the trannies you apparently see on the beach in Rio. That would broaden your mind a bit, and possibly something else if you had too many cocktails .
  9. You're unbiased, I'm sure you've been to every big city in this country watching Blackburn, tell me somewhere nicer on the eye than here, with better locals. Actually Stevie, the furthest up the coast I've been is Whitby. Haven't been to the north east proper, though my dad and grandad are monkey hangers by birth, and my great grandad was mayor of Hartlepool. Newcastle looks alright from what I've seen on TV, and Northunberland looks all windswept and interesting. It must be better than North Bedfordshire though, which is flat, full of pretty dull villages and the occaisional landfill site. And the West country, as in East Devon, Dorset and Somerset does have character and is actually quite nice.
  10. McDonalds is open weekends, early mornings and evenings Kevin. You'll be in at different times
  11. Basically Kevin, you have to be really good at the thing you enjoy to get a career out of it, otherwise you'll end up unemployed or frustrated and bitter, and stuck in a deadend. For example, I like playing the gituar, but I'm never going to aim to do any gigs as I'm utterly shit, and I'll be in a cardboard box if I 'followed my dream'. 98% of people end up in jobs that they find shit to OK, and see it as a way to pay the bills. So be careful when setting out for a career.
  12. You need to be seriously good at computers, and need to be great at maths. Put it this way, I had someone in my class who practically turned his scientific calculator into a gameboy. He did a darts game on it, an F1 racing game etc. I tried to blag my way through my Masters, because it was interesting just like the local pub, and fucked it up.
  13. I think Reading stands accused of being souless. It may be affluent and all that, but dull. I've only been for the festival in 2000, and passing through en route to Devon so I don't really know the place well enough to comment. Milton Keynes however is a dull place thatt is bad for your car's tyres due to all the roundabouts. The only thing going for it is Bletchley Park.
  14. He's a bit like Gauruicha in a way, talented, but inherantly mental and self-destructive. I doubt he'll be collecting a pension.
  15. Forlan won't happen, no way Levy will pay out silly money for a player of that age bracket and he hyas already said he wants to stay in Spain. Bellamy is a funny one.

  16. I may have met some of you in the pub at the Blackburn vs. Newcastle game in 1995.
  17. I was buying MC Hammer tapes when I was that age.
  18. Yeah, but at least there IS life after the menopause!!! But by the time today's bairns get there, 6 in 5 of them will be ethnics. And we'll have to live under Sharia law, get our bins emptied monthly, be banned from celebrating Christmas, stabbed by black gang members every day, lose all our jobs to East Europeans and have to donate 20% of any income to the French. Its PC gone mad!!!!!!!!!
  19. I'd disagree, but then I'm not a big fan of Marshall, so you'd expect me to. Eminem couldn't have been worse than Marilyn Manson when I saw him in 1997. He was bollocks at The Big Day Out. I also disagree with your views on Danny Dyer-I think he's a complete twathole.
  20. Bang on Tom, shrewd ownership, low net spend and a fantatic fan base has allowed us to spend. but as man city have shown, big spends dont guarantee success. However I fear they are going to get it together this season. Low net spend? Sure, you don't lob the sort of money that Man City do, but Spurs have always had plenty of cash, and have spent a great deal over the years. £17m for Bentley, who barely gets a game, however much Pavlechenko cost etc. It's only the season just gone that it has actually had any real effect. Trust me, if you want bean counting, Ewood Park is the place to go.
  21. He was still a very good keeper, but he didn't have long left in him as it turned out. Given was only 21 or so, and looked as good as Flowers when he was on loan at Sunderland. He honestly looked like the best young keeper in the country, and was worth a whole load more than the £1.5m you got him for. After Flowers left, we had Filan and Kelly who were both solid, but not outstanding, but had to endure the odd game with Alan Fettis who had hands like cows tits.
  22. Why have you got a picture of Danny Dyer? Well done on the job, soon you'll be able to buy a Bentley Continental.
  23. If it comes to a choice between a promising young keeper who looks the business, and a solid pro, sell the pro. We fucked up big time by keeping Flowers and letting you have Given. It's still a horrible memory to this day for me.
  24. So is Oxygen and T in the Park the same thing? And is Kevin using a picture of himself for his avatar?
  25. 1. Have you seen that smug cunt Paul McCartney recently? What a walking embarrassment to entertainment. And for every Beatles, there are 20 Casts, Space and The La's. 2. The Albert Dock is shit. It shouldn't be a world heritage site, as it is full of overpriced cafes and nightclubs, and fucking crap shops that sell awful tourist tat like commerative plates with Steven Gerrard on. The sort of bollocks you get advertised in the sunday magazines in tabloids. 3. Bread was a fucking shit TV show too. I'm siding with the Geordies here as scousers think they're something special, that they are somehow culturally superior to the rest of the country. And the love of wallowing in grief whenever some scally dies as well.................let's just say Boris Johnson was right.
