Fantastic. When do you get to go back ? I'll be cheering you on. rocks

One of my friends got to about Round 3 of the auditions last year and was pretty pleased with herself. How did it go for you today, Gemmill ?

I think it's a bit late to catch them tbh.

Wooooooooooah 92876[/snapback] Did I just make you jealous again ?

... and then we Hitzfeld can come and make us even better ? (I tried to fit his todger into that sentence but I couldn't see it going in anywhere.)

Fact: Iain Turner's last game before he joined Everton was played at Borough Briggs and I was there. Oh yes.

That's fantastic, I like it very much. I don't like needing a US Zip code to sign up though. Following on from that, it doesn't have any British bands that haven't been to America, which is a little vexing. Edit: Random numbers worked fine. This is my new favourite site, thanks !

Anyone mentioned Davina yet ? Why not ?

As the title says I'd quite like to seem him try a similar thing in a real game (I don't think he's playing in a real game there you see...)

Why? When? 90605[/snapback] When he was playing for the Saltires my Dad organised some curry nights that he would attend to help raise money (to pay his wages...). There was one in Fochabers, one in Edinburgh and one in Northampton. Because my Dad lived in Fochabers he set up more of an event there and Dravid did a sort of batting masterclass followed by an attempt to hit a ball clean into the river behind the pitch (which he didn't manage). For the masterclass, a few of the guys who played for Fochabers got to bowl at him but he was nice and didn't completely hammer us about like he so obviously could have if he wanted to. Having said that, my mate, who was about 16 at the time, almost bowled him but the jammy git inside edged it past his leg stump. I also bowled at Mike Atherton in about 1997. My brother made him swear.

I've bowled at Rahul Dravid - how does that compare to Tendulkar ?

Andy Cole. I'll add the rest later.

I've recently 'discovered' the Veronicas. I like them so far, almost as much as I like hot naked chicks

Hello. I'm doing a bit of work experience reporting on diddy football in the area and the game I was covering today went to penalties. I'm not really sure of the best way to go about this - should I briefly state who scored and missed or should I describe each penalty in detail ? If someone can provide links to proper match reports of games that finished in this way that they think do it well, I'd appreciate the help. Cheers.

How could they do this ... ? Poor Harold

YES YES YES

More Than Words Can Say is absolutely terrible quality

I took your advice and watched it. Wow. I think it's fair to tell everyone that no wires or green scenes were used in the production of that video. I can't decide which is my favourite bit: the flying (with birds); the motorbike; the jumping; the snowboarding (and then the fish) ... Wow.

The Hoff Wow.

Chocolate flavoured milkshake? 85936[/snapback] Ssh. That's ludicrous. The other picture I posted was of a Green Tea flavoured KitKat. Hmm.

On another board I visit, someone just started a thread about KitKats. These pictures were posted. The second looks like it could be quite fun. A milkshake flavoured chocolate bar, whatever next ?

I thought they were amazing when I first tried them (back in Summer '05, being as trendy as I am) but they start to be wrong after a while. Something else I've started doing quite recently is eating all the fingers together rather than breaking them. It's crazy.

13 against Samoa ?

Because they've just re-released their greatest hits with a newly recorded song ?

I know what you mean, I'm surprised it took someone as long as this to pick me up on it. I just feel that if an English club had a problem with racism like some did 20 years ago they would not be allowed into the league now. For me Celtic and Rangers have a problem of that scale now. It certainly doesn't seem to get the attention it needs to get sorted, maybe people don't shout loudly enough about this divide, God forbid there were Jews or Muslims involved! 55618[/snapback] Well, for the record, I can see the problems people hae with Celtic/Rangers in the premiership. I speak purely from a selfish point of view in that I would relish the opportunity of going up to Glasgow twice a year rather than London seven times a year. I just think it would spice things up at a time when the premiership has become unbelievably flat and boring. But what about my idea for an anglo-scottish league cup? Would that not make this pointless competition a bit more interesting? I made this point once on a 5-live debate, only for McMenemy of all people to poo poo it, claiming it was too far for London clubs to travel. The wanker. 55621[/snapback] Is you idea to have all the competitive teams in Scotland and England play in the same cup or just the top league from each ? It sounds quite nice but if you do have all the teams in it, can you imagine a semi-professional team such as Elgin playing against a) someone like Chelsea where the score would quite easily get into double figures someone like Plymouth where there's no particular interest to travel many hundred miles to get beaten ? 55637[/snapback] I guess it would mean all the leaugue teams from the English and Scottish leagues. But tbh, there's a lot of shit fixtures already, I don't see a problem. 55639[/snapback] A semi-pro team in the far reaches of the North would have to spend quite a bit of money on travel, hotels and trying to get their players off work to enable them to visit another poor team in the south of England getting very little money in return. These teams know they're not going to get very far in these cups, why would they want to enter ? It might be a better idea to have qualifying sections in each country so that you'd get maybe 6 Scottish teams and 10 English teams in the pot for the round before the quarters ?
