I can see I'm going to have to endure this for some time to come so I'm not going to bite as I'm only encouraging you. I know I didn't believe him and I rather suspect you do too. Edit: Of course, by posting the above I have bitten and therefore encouraged you.... I'll just stop typing now.......

Quality piece of journalism that, we've gone from professional, distanced work with multiple corroberating sources to a vitriolic piece with anecdotal evidence from 'My friend Tom'. 43223[/snapback] It's a personal opinion in a column, not a factual article. 43231[/snapback] Self serving anctimonious shite. The hypocrisy of profitting from other peoples misery in the guise of moral outrage. Cheap nasty and unneccesary 43250[/snapback] Typical of modern day journalism though isn't it? Look at the Kate Moss example.

Just to add this to the mix - I notice that some people have mentioned the liver transplant the the people who could have benefitted from it instead. IIRC doesn't George Best have an extremely rare blood type? He was incredibly lucky to get a new liver as it is very rare to find one that is compatible with such a rare blood type. Obviously this should be a good incentive not to waste the opportunity. I'd just like to point out however, that he didn't steal it from some other "more deserving" soul. Few would have been able to use the liver anyway. Before I get flamed for being callous, I'm not saying I agree with his decision to start drinking again, I'm just putting some perspective on the "my friend Tom could have had that liver instead" argument. We need a tin-hat smiley

The chair shot and the stick poking one need to be added to here. They're mint. My faves: Only discovered slap yesterday. This one's canny too.

Gullible??? Only if I'd believed you. I retracted my slap as I thought you'd not taken it in the playful manner it which it was intended (you soft get). The playful slap was for your humerous reply to my post (which asked for a real answer), the retraction was not because I believed you. So you can take another slap for thinking I'm gullible enough to believe you 42987[/snapback] You blatantly believed him like. 42989[/snapback] Shut it metal dick

I think I can handle the truth, whether or not you can is a different matter however. A google with the right spelling uncovered: Pease Pudding recipe So I take back my and return my

Silly person. There are no peas in it. It's named after Albert Pea, its creator. 42906[/snapback] 42907[/snapback] Who you slapping? It's true! Professer Pea was the dude. The clue is in the colour isn't it? Peas are Bright GREEN! I've even looked it up for you... 42936[/snapback] I thought you were being sarcastic and I've just found the slapping smiley - had to use it ;-) So I guess I'm owed a I know why google was not being much help........ misspell I was looking for 'peas pudding'. I think Alex is right though, it is split peas. Oh and not all peas are green

I'm with SLP, proper peas are better than mushy and they're deffo not a pre-coital aperitif

Silly person. There are no peas in it. It's named after Albert Pea, its creator. 42906[/snapback] Sounds rank whatever is or isnt in it tbh. 42909[/snapback] Divvent knock it 'til you've tried it man! This coming form the man who lives in the land of black peas ?????? :yak:

.... I'm having a blond moment. What kind of peas make up peas pudding? Lentils? Yellow peas? Google is not helping much. Plenty of comments from exiled geordies who miss ham and peas pudding stotties, but not how to make it! Had a ham stottie at work today (minus the peas pudding) so it was talked about. But I cant remember what pes pudding is made from.

Just build my new PC, and was straight onto this thread for the 1024 x 768 pics of shearer and owen! Class. Well done again

Let's just have a look at these "minority" arguments. I don't like racist jokes I don't agree with taking music without paying for it I think Souness should get more time (!) They're the ones that came up so far. I'm just prepared to stick my neck out and say what I think, even though it may be easier to go with the flow. I'm not going to change to fit in, fuck that. 38500[/snapback] Hmmmm, lets see.... I not a fan of the first one either, I'm guilty of the second one, but as you've read my above post I wont bother to explain and I agree with the third! I guess I must be in the same minority as you then AF? I'm not so sure it's such a minority either. It might not be the overall majority, but I think this minority is a little bigger than J69 would give credit for!

Speed isn't everything though is it? He's a much more complete player after only a season at RM. His work outside the box is better and he is a more intelligent player. It might not be as fast as he was when he was 19, but then most people aren't. The difference is, he doesn't rely upon it for his game, so losing a bit of speed has not hindered him. His strengths have changed and like any top class player, he has changed his game to suit. Why do you think Shearer is still in the top flight? Hells b****cks man, would you have prefered it if we had not signed him? Look beyond what was one of his original strengths, he has!

Get in! 1:0

It's getting a little frantic now. Can't believe Ameobi has just slowly wandered back for a corner this late in the game. Lazy little feck!

I'll answer the first point Gems. It's one of the reasons I don't use legal download sites like iTunes (even if I am a mac lover). There is nothing like owning the actual CD. You don't just buy the cd, it's the packaging, the sleeve notes etc. Sound quality is an issue too, not all of the stuff you can download is of a good quality (although this is notthe case with iTunes). Lastly, I buy the albums I like because I want to support the artist. I like their album, so I pay them for it. I actually buy more albums now than I used too, yet I still download too. Nine times out of ten however, I'm buying an album I've actually heard. I downloaded the last Oasis album 6-8 weeks before it came out, I had it on pre-order with cd-wow 4 weeks before it came out and it was delivered soon after it came out. I promptly deleted the version I had downloaded and re-ripped the actual cd onto my mac. The difference is that I now only buy albums I actually like. I rarely buy an album I haven't listened to first (with the exception of the Foo Fighters last album - it had such good write ups that I just bought it). What I am doing is not legal, but I can live with myself as I tend to buy the stuff I keep. On the flip side, you have a point as there are plenty of theiving gyppos would dont even do this

Century FM You have to register but it works mint. Listenng to it now

Just hoyed beer all over my desk listening to this! Come on the Toon! Excellent work by Bowyer and sounded like a good finish from Owen.

20 league goals is a big ask for someone who is not the player he once was who has never achieved it 38387[/snapback] That's the spirit! Sima: Micheal, you're 25 now and I dont think you are as good as you used to be. You've never scored 20 goals in a season, why do you bother?

Thanks for that. I'm now registered and listening as I type! Mint. Howay the toon

Any toon sites streaming the game today? or are any of you guys not at the game planning on streaming local radio? Here in mancland, it's all citeh

actually no the photo of the players on that one is already in its original size, blowing it up would make the quality pretty poor. 36954[/snapback] Ok, what about keeping the photo at the same size, but changing the background to 1280 x 854. I guess it all depends upon what resolution you did the montage in.

Awesome as always, and would look even better with the background in grey or like your current sig. 35416[/snapback] ... go on then: http://perso.wanadoo.fr/shearerm4/wall/wp/saowp2.jpg http://perso.wanadoo.fr/shearerm4/wall/wp/saowp3.jpg 35442[/snapback] Like them both, but the 2nd one is class. Both better then the orange version (imo). Just to be picky, any chance of a 1280 x 854 version? Would suit my powerbook screen mint. Love the pic though - never thought I'd see those two celebrating like that in toon tops. Can't stop grinning
