Thanks guys, and the only birthday present I'd be interested in would be for my Southampton contract to disappear. But thanks for the thread Mr Hayton.

Western Australia is an Aussie Rules state though, so West Coast being in the Grand Final is a big deal over there. There are 16 teams in the competition, 10 of which are from Victoria so it is very much our game. Both SA and WA have two teams with NSW and Queensland having one each. Sadly, this is the second Grand Final in a row with no Victorian teams playing, however Sydney once played in South Melbourne so the Victorians are jumping on that bandwagon. The only Victorian team that'd have no Victorian support other than from their own fans are Collingwood, because everyone hates those cunts. Alex, when you were here Brisbane won the Grand Final. It would have been the third of their three Premierships in a row.

I'm going to be in Perth for the Grand Final and apparently we're heading off to the casino to watch the game. My 'friend' there is a Freo fan though, so at least I'll be seeing it with someone else that wants Sydney to get up. I'm definitely behind the Swans in this one, with no Victorian teams involved at least I can say they used to be South Melbourne. I saw the Victory match against Queensland, the bastard ref gave Thompson a yellow for diving in the penalty area when he was clearly brought down. It just sucks that there were no Victory home matches while I've been in town, although I've done my bit by buying both a home and an away shirt. I take it you've jumped on the new Sydney team bandwagon? I've been surprised how much of a following the Victory are getting here, I've come across a lot of people that are excited about football. It was always hard for me to get behind Melbourne teams in the past being neither Greek nor Croatian. It's great to have a team with no ethnic bias.

I have abandoned that board due to the fact it is gay. Sorry to be so harsh about it, but this place just feels so cozy in comparison.

I think there should be a new reality TV show to find the next Newcastle manager. I'm just posting this so it is on record, that way if they ever do make a show like that I can say they stoler my idea and sue them for millions.

Given 7 Carr 7 Babyaro 7 Boumsong 6 Taylor 6 Bowyer 7 Faye 134 Clark 7 N'Zogbia 8 Shearer 8 Owen 8 Anyone would think I saw the game but no, I'm making them up just because I'm a fucking pain in the arse spammer.

Papa Laz, a question. If being beaten by Blackburn today would have definitely been the end of Souness, would you have been happy with a defeat? At this stage, I just figure a win is a win and I will enjoy it as such.

It is with great shame that I admit in this thread to having a soft spot for emo. Maybe it's got something to do with becoming angsty over my now mid-twenties age, but I kinda like My Chemical Romance, Funeral for a Friend and the like. I'm sorry. And on the topic of chavs (sorry, I'm too southern), I don't think Australia has the problem that England has. Sure we have our chav equivalent, but I wouldn't rate them as nearly as vile. There seems to be something about the English environment that brings the chav gene out more than it does in Australia. We have our total fuckup losers sure, but the chavs are like a whole new breed. Maybe X-Men got it wrong, maybe we won't evolve and get cool superpowers, maybe chavs are the new breed of humans. I pity the future of the race.

Anyone else just getting a feeling of relief? It's not like how a win normally feels, it's just relief that finally we're getting a good result.

You know what you've just done? You've jinxed us and we'll leak a goal early in the second half. Saying things like that is like saying how good the weather is on someone's wedding day, or you're making great time because there's fuck all traffic , or catmag hasn't noticed you checking out her arse for the last 10 minutes. As soon as you say it you're fucked because it all goes wrong. And I have the scars from catmag to prove it.

If they bring on Emerton though we're fucked. He'll win the game on his own such is his talent.

Lucas Neill is an excellent player and it's a shame he has to play for a club like Blackburn. I say we try and sign him along with Mighty Brett Emerton, with three Aussies like we'll ever lose. Seriously though, he's a little cunt. I love him when he plays for Oz though, always gets stuck in. And anyone else think that if Lee Clark weren't a Geordie he'd be nowhere near our first team?

I meant what I said. 80s music was wank and should not be played today. Wipe all evidence that the 80s ever existed as far as I'm concerned.

This is 24 hours later: Not impressed Cath. These eye drops are a sham.

The only important musical group to come out of the 80s was Faith No More. And maybe the Pixies too I guess, but the rest was wank.

I'd take Mimi over Catherine, Alistair and Craig...

Arrrrrr, I quite like the idea of a pirate themed wedding. Shit, anything pirate themed is always fantastic. I could put the patch over my right eye and then not shave and I could be Redbeard the Pirate. Arrrrrr. I leave next Thursday, so I'm here until the 22nd. Then it's off to Perth for two days before I have to go back to work in Southampton.

At least I'm whinging about a serious condition and not PMS.

Ending a sentence with a preposition. Come on your better than that 33672[/snapback] Getting 'your' and 'you're' wrong. Come on Mr Avenger, you're better than that.

But it really hurts guys.

Once Tom Morello has been mentioned this thread should be locked. Best ever.

Maybe before I shaved my head, but not now. Keep trying Gol.
