What were they asking? A pony?

Fucked if I've got the faintest clue, mate! 39543[/snapback] Jizzfest!

I concur. 37989[/snapback] agreed (it wouldnt load for me, Firefox said some shit about missing plugins) 37990[/snapback] HINT: Open it in IE - it'll work fine! 38137[/snapback] King nerd tbh

.........firmly around the throat?

Your seeing things..! 38033[/snapback] Sorry, you're right. It was Charles N'zogbia.

Luque looks like Frank Sidebottom. Also am I seeing things (it's very hard to make out) or is Nicky Butt on there, like the little shitehawk that he is?

nerdfest tbh

Fuck off the pair of yers!

If I knew what the feck that meant I'd be able to reply 37573[/snapback] We're keeping it selective, dahhhhling. 37787[/snapback] Nah, selective would be 'eclectic'. Back to the dictionaries, Cath. 37812[/snapback] Eclectic also means ' a variety' shithead, so I didn't want to confuse you. 37917[/snapback] One of my pet peeves this one actually-the misuse of 'eclectic' Eclectic actually means selecting from various styles. Emphasis on the word select(ing)(ive) To illustrate by way of example-people often wrongly comment 'an eclectic mix'. 'Mix' would therefore be redundant in that sentence if you follow your logic as it's inclusion adds nothing to the sentence. Are you desperate to wipe the smile off my face yet............? Anyway as a lawyer one is very careful about language and uses it with fierce and forensic precision. As someone who once harboured dreams of becoming a journalist though cath I'm ashamed of you. Very sloppy stuff. In fact probably best you left well alone with hindsight. .......right...free lolly for the first person to call me a pedant (or a twat) before 11.30! 37928[/snapback] Twat. 37932[/snapback] Oooooh...you beat the buzzer and spelt it correctly. I might stretch to an ice cream for that! Good work, Cath. Much better!

Believe me it's far from fantastic, if you swap Bramble for Taylor it makes it a bit better, but there's still the problem of a poor left back and an average right back. Midfield looks ok but Luque has to prove he' got what it takes to perform in the Premiership, Emre on the other hand looks a natural. Good on you for not letting Dyer anywhere near the first 11! If only Shithouse Souness felt the same! 37878[/snapback] Or any manager since Gullit bought him for that matter, mate. He must be absolutely shit hot cosmic in training cos he sure as shite rarely justifies his selection once he's on the pitch. 37882[/snapback] I have a feeling that Dyer's return might just be the making of this team - in with the full strength squad. That is the reason I am giving Souness a bit more time - to see what happens when we have Dyer running at the opposition and Owen benefitting from it. The only problem is who to drop, and I can only think that Shearer is going to have to sit back and watch. We shall see. 37906[/snapback] I definitely think Dyer's turned a corner and am looking forward to him getting back in the team. 37909[/snapback] As ever I am humbled by your faith and optimism-traits that are both typical and admirable in those afflicted by ginger hair! 37919[/snapback] .....tbh. 37925[/snapback]

Back to the dictionaries, Cath. 37812[/snapback] Don't listen to him, Cath - he thinks he invented the word lummox . If you want it to mean selective, then selective it is 37895[/snapback] Thats the truth actually. FACT! Just like if someone is unlucky, you say 'if he fell in a bucket of tits, he'd come out sucking his thumb!'. Thats mine too. I invented that and I have witnesses to prove it.

Agreed. And it's not like Luque's been here long enough for Souness's dastardly coaching techniques to have damaged his hamstrings. 37883[/snapback] I don't really have an opinion on it one way or another (mainly because I wouldn't have a clue about the training facilities to allow me to comment), but to provide the other side of the coin, it can sometimes be down to training techniques. Christian Gross' time at Tottenham is the prime example - during his time at Spurs there was an unbelievable injury list and it was widely accepted that this was down to his training techniques generally. Plus you can never rule out the possibility that Souness is doping and/or deliberately injuring his players and then betting on the outcome of our matches. I'm just saying is all.

I shared with 11 others in first-year halls, all male. It was the first time they'd tried that permutation - as far as I know, previously they'd only ever done mixed or all-female flats. And I think we ensured they never repeated the experiment.... 37738[/snapback] Let me make sure I've got this right here so I don't make the mistake of coming over all tabloid and alarmist. You're alleging that the fact that you were put in an all male flat TURNED YOU INTO A RAVING HEEMASEX BOTTOM FIEND???!!!

These phases happen though. AC Milan in the early 90's were dreadful to watch, but they rarely lost or conceeded a goal and turned Seria A into a one horse race. Chelsea remind me of them. I applaud Wenger for sticking to an atacking team to try and leep the fans entertained, but it comes down to the old argument about would you rather win things or be forever the entertaining bridesmaid. I still can't decide which one I'd want more. 37850[/snapback] Good call, mate. Incidentally, there would be less of an outcry if it was Man U or Arsenal winning each game in the same way. I like Mourinho too by the way. In fact I think he is the most entertaining manager on the planet. 37852[/snapback] D. Brent?? 37856[/snapback] "You will never work for another manager like me. This is brilliant. FACT!"

Not me, I'm afraid. I will probably remember these days as the 'wilderness years'. I have respect for Liverpool and, to a certain degree, Manure for when they dominated but I have none what-so-ever for Chewsee. I like Mourinho but don't think being able to buy almost every player you want is a reason to earn my respect for the team he has. 37853[/snapback] What's the difference though from the point of view of the managers abilities? Granted Chelsea are bankrolled by a camp billionaire but even though Manure can point to the fact that they generate their own revenues autonymously, the bottom line is Fergie has still had more money to spend than other managers consistently down the years. In fact for the two or three years prior to Abramovitch, Man U were the only ones who could still spend big in the Prem (Rio Ferdinand being the prime example). The fact is Fergie and Mourinho have both been given the cash and they have both shown their worth as managers by splashing it wisely. Incidentally Mourinho won the top prize with porto on an absolute shoe string. If he doesnt deserve respec' then I really don't know who does?!

I think we should try and get him back on a years loan now that Helguiera is available for them again and Woody's fit.

At last, someone else who uses it!! I call my son that all the time but I couldn't give him evidence of where it came from - he thought I had made it up (the stupid lummox). I think it comes from a film or tv show somewhere. 37837[/snapback] I invented it mate and I have proof. Mystery solved.

A work message board where you discuss Walkers Crisp competitions? Jesus, they actually encourage you lot not to work, don't they? 37822[/snapback] Oh aye, it's the same software from the old toontastic as well. I don't post on it very much as I'm sure the bosses will look on it and think 'how the hell has he had time to make 4,000 posts?' There's even a comedy clique on there. 37827[/snapback] You complete waster! 37836[/snapback] Bollocks man! I've been registered on it for 4 years and only made 130 posts or something. Our admin girl on the other hand is well on her way to four figures and she's only been on it 6 months, she recently mananged to join the clique. 37839[/snapback] Does that complete fucking retard, Alex use it like? If so I should hope he's excluded from the clique.

You changing jobs like? Good luck with it. 37826[/snapback] If I got it it would be with the same employer only in a different department. It's mental like as i don't even know if it's what I want and the form is that long I imagine it's gonna be one of those scenarios where you pause every hour or so and think 'what the feck am I filling this in for?' Having said that I do think it'll be worth it if I get an interview-it's just at this stage with nowt down on paper it just looks like one mammoth thankless task. 37828[/snapback] By the way cheers for the good luck wishes, mate. And a free lolly for the first person to come in with the 'do you want fries with that?' job application gag before 9 am.
