A visit to the opticians is in order for Mr W!

I've got you on ignore. 175239[/snapback] Only selected messages eh?

That a different version to the one I was on about then?

Lennon in the side ahead of him 175199[/snapback] Rather play Gerrard there. 175216[/snapback] Who in the middle? Lampard & Parker??

Who went to see Erasure in concert again? 175096[/snapback] Under duress. Feel free to keep discussing musicals though, minceboy! 175100[/snapback] Not the rumour I heard. But don't worry Scotty anyone who was subject to a teenage, screaming queen all night has the right to deny they really wanted to be there. 175107[/snapback] I don't like to talk about it tbh. Gives me flashbacks. "OOOOO ANDY! Show uth your chapth!" *clap clap clap (clapping with palms only and fingers splayed)* 175115[/snapback] Wasn't he busy nudging you and trying to get you to join in as well?

Bramble was touted for future England call ups and £5m+ transfer fees throughout his time at Ipswich. None of the Ipswich die-hards (I work with 2 of them) wanted rid of him when he came to Newcastle. Now they're glad they cashed in when they did. Taylor is very reminiscant of what Bramble was like. Whether he fails to realise his potential in the same way, only time will tell. However if it meant us getting our striker of Robbie Keane's ability in return AND £6.5m, then I'd rip their hands off

REM - One

BTW, am I the only one who thinks the FA is fucking nuts for arranging a friendly just 3 days before the football season starts? I'd imagine that the clubs of any player who may pick up a serious injury in a pointless game ruling them out of the start of the season will be seriously pissed off!

You're joking yeah? Or am I gonna have to play the typical-bird-doesn't-know-what-she's-talking-about card. 175067[/snapback] Didnt have a lot of end product and often gave the ball away (running it out etc). Promising but below par for me. 175068[/snapback] Isn't 100% match fit yet. Definitely promising though - we he's up to speed he's going to be scaring the shit out of full backs...

Jimbo shirley?? 175045[/snapback] Come not Cum ffs 175049[/snapback] Howay man, play on wordz!

Rent is perhaps the best musical of all! Oh and for those taking the piss, it's a combo of music and acting and I presume you all watch films and listen to music!

Jimbo shirley??

Like most of FNM's stuff but every time I hear that I wish they'd left it alone...

You jest, shirley? 174898[/snapback] Call it madness in my youthful days but I always used to like it (Haven't heard it for years mind so it probably is a pile of wank! )

Shay strained his back?

Yep, the right man got the job. However as was said on Talksport this evening, Gerrard doesn't need an armband to have an influence on the pitch and the same would have been said had it been the other way around. Thank god it wasn't Gary Neville IMO

What a dump! it would never be missed 174525[/snapback] Even so, I'd rather they didn't blow the fuck out of the place while I'm nearby!

BBC report that homes are being evacuated in High Wycombe. That's about 10 miles away from here and the sky is full of police helicopters at the moment...

Heathrow is now closed to all incoming flights that are not already in the air. Lufthansa have cancelled all flights to UK BA shares down 4% this morning...

In other words they'll lose him for a respectable fee rather than an astronomical one like Arsenal paid?

If by the end of the summer we've signed: * Duff * Gravesen * Martins * Bridge I'll be a happy man
