  1. I like jonas. He does a decent enough job for a side with our ambitions. We're right to retain this sort of player. Whether the contract is worth the paper it was written on remains to be seen. Mancy mate, walk away from the never ending circular argument with lm. It's the only way.
  2. i think he's just a bit shit. don't know if it's just because he's still not match fit or whether the injuries have had a big impact on him. time will tell but he's got a bit to do to be pushing for a first team spot. you'd have to wonder if he's even ahead of guthrie at this stage.
  3. i'd love to think jonas and tiote see out the majority of their improved contracts and don't end up being sold in a carroll type scenario
  4. whoaah, mate that sounds like way to few calories to me for the amount of work you're doing. as bizare as it sounds, you actually need to eat more in order to cut the fat while training heavily. if you under eat, your body will cling on to fat and burn muscle. our bodies aren't designed to look sculpted, they're designed to survive. the human body is a stubborn thing. it will hang on to the fat for as long as possible. i'd up your calorie intake by about 6-700 dependign on how much work you're doing. make sure you eat plenty of protein and carbs post work out. don't be afraid of healthy fats and if you want to drop fat while building muscle, just stay clear of the refined carbs and don't eat any carbs past 4 or 5 in the afternoon other than vegetables. one of the biggest mistakes i made for years was not eating enough. serioulsy, getting the right fuel is so important. it's worth remembering that your body will burn about 1500-1800 calories a day as standard. that's befioe you've done any training. Fuck! I'm all for eating more but getting these extra calories in sounds like hard graft. I don't want to be one of these cunts who walks round with chicken breasts in his pockets. Just nuts and fruit and shit? I don't want to start eating more only to pile the beef back on! Cheers for the advice btw, it's really helpful. I did wonder when I added the running in whether I was gonna be eating too little. I'm the same. Some of the lads in the gym tell me to get the chicken breasts in and up the calories. Don't know if I want to make those sort of changes though. it's really not difficult to eat 2500 calories in a day if you're training. if you're working hard you should be famished after your workout. i find the way to do it is to eat smaller portions, more frequently. i eat typically 3 meals a day and 3 snacks a day. keeps the metabolism up too so you don't overeat in one sitting.

  6. Funny like how shola has waited his whole career to be our first choice striker and even now when he's in his prime and we have the worst bunch of strikers on our books in a generation he finds himself behind the likes of leon best.
  7. wife's out tonight so might watch "weapons of ass destruction" later
  8. Just to get fitter really. I'm only going 4 days a week now, and running 4 days a week outside. So I only do weights Mon, Tues, Thu, Fri and I've started running Mon, Wed, Fri, Sun. Is that too much, you reckon? nah, not as long as you mix up the workouts and make sure you're eating right, getting plenty of calories, lots of protein in your diet and a good nights sleep so your muscles can recover and rebuild. i'm only training 3 or 4 days a week now. it's tough when you've got a sprog. i'm mostly going to classes, mainly because they're quick and efficient. a mix of circuits, boxing, kettlebells and spinning.
  9. I acquired a set of techniques 1210s with my student loan. That was back in the mid 90s mind when we didn't have fuck off big fees to deal with and before vinyl became obsolete.
  10. are any of these android phones worth getting then? i was hoping to ugrade my iphone 3gi, which has an ugly smashed dispaly screen, but am hearing on macrumours now that the iphone 5 isn't coming now until 2012. not happy with that and can't be arsed to wait that long with a smashed up phone if it turns out to be true.
  11. the atmosphere sounded canny on the sky highlights. is there a decent amount of noise being generated despite the closure of the singing section? did any of the leazes l7 lot manage to relocate enough of them to the same bit of the ground or was this just the crowd reacting to a good performance?
  12. i can sum up ashley far more succinctly than that.... ...cunt
  13. another bastard away tie. we haven't had the easiest route so far. loads of potential banana skins
  14. missed my boxing class so went to 45 minute kettlebells class instead. anyone tried it? fuck me, one of the most savage ways to build muscle and get the heart rate pumping. it has russian roots so give it a go if you want to be built like one of the klitsckos.

    Fatigue

    you will be tired oh yes ...you will be tired

    Fatigue

    just a bath and a story. Nowt too complex. He usually goes down at night alright. Just doesn't fancy sleeping through past 5 am. He goes down about 7.30-8. We thought about putting him to bed later but you need a couplevof hours on your own to chill at night for your own sanity I reckon. Sleeping too much during the day probably, look at how long the morning and afternoon naps are on average. Our one goes down at 8am and wakes up anywhere between 7.30 and 9am. She doesnt nap in the morning and has one hour in the afternoon. When she did nap in the morning we kept it to 30 mins. You've got to find the right balance between napping and their own behaviour. We found too little daytime sleep was a nightmare as she became too tired in the evening and then there was always a major kerfuffle getting dinner/ bath/ book/ bed/ all of these sorted. Might be that. that's what i don't understand, he isn't much of a sleeper in the day eiher. he usually has three naps of around 30-45 minutes each. i read they should be napping at least three hours during the day but he's nowhere near that.

    funny how 8 am is a lie in when you have kids.

  19. Not crap, but not the best either. Basically the sort of player a team with limited resources and ambitions that extend to staying up buy in. Hope he proves us doubters wrong but when you look past his pace, I don't see much of a player .... At least, not yet. He's still young.
  20. Going boxing later. Going to need a few coffees to get through it though

    Fatigue

    Fuck me, I've been utterly goosed for the past 6 months. The bairn is finally sleeping through but he still rises at 5am every day. To make matters worse, I always end up staying too late at weekends, even though I'm shagged. Well it's the weekend innit, you can't give up on life altogether. Is there any end in sight to this permanent state of fatigue or is this basically it until they're teenagers when they start sleeping all the time?
