  1. He has had more assists and goals. Shola had more goals than Rooney in the 2003-4 season despite only being 3rd choice striker. Should he have been called into the Euro 2004 squad ahead of Rooney.
  2. Haha. Doesn't beat when that fan ran onto the pitch at Leicester though and confronted Ian Walker, only to be pushed onto his arse.
  3. Travis - Hit Me Baby One More Time and anything by Dr Kennedy and the Waiting Room.
  4. Haha class. There's one user on Youtube who has a montage of the United 93 crash site asking "Where's The Plane?", and then in another one by him, he's saying it was shot down. F*cking hell, which one is it? There's either a plane or there wasn't, you can't have both.
  5. Thats what you call plausible deniability. Yes. And also I find it might strange that on both days...ie 7/7 and 9/11 there were exercises going on to prevent the very same type of attacks. A few months ago, we had a fire drill at work. Two hours later, one of the fryers set on fire and set the ansul system off and we had to evacuate in the car park. Two months later, the owners of the company put Little Chef into liquidation and it was only a last minute deal with another company which kept Little Chef open. I now believe that the two owners, in order to try and gain some insurance money, tipped off the cook to burn down the building and kill the 8 customers we had in at the time. (this did actually happen by the way)
  6. ....even Donnie can't remember what version of the story he is telling... When a plastic bottle is thrown onto a football pitch, it's referred to as a "missile" is it not? When Martin Tyler is saying "there's missiles being thrown onto the pitch", believe it or not, he hasn't lost the plot and believes that those plastic bottles are weapons.
  7. Hahahaha. And the ironic thing here of course is Leazes didn't rate Tino one bit.
  8. Scored the winner against the mighty Juventus in the First Group stage to set us on our way to qualifying for the Second Group Stage. BRING HIM BACK!!
  9. Ripped Salgado to shreads in the Bernabeu. Recall him to the f*cking team now.
  10. He could have played in the Nou Camp in a Newcastle shirt. But because he loves the club so much and doing what was best for the team, he decided he'd punch Materazzi in the first 5 minutes of the first group game against Inter, helping the team to a 10-man 4-1 home defeat, and then being suspended for the trip to Barcelona.
  11. To be fair, Blackburn haven't exactly got the greatest following, it's a midday kick-off, plus they wouldn't have known where they were playing until Wednesday night.
  12. Haha, was on a PSG forum a few months ago asking why Robert was never selected in the France squad as soon as he signed for us,and someone said one of the reasons was because he had a rant in training that the system was suited too much to accommodate Zidane rather than the wingers and most of the senior French stars like Thuram, Dugarry, Djorkaeff & Zidane fell out with him.
  13. Can't believe this really. If we're after a big striker as cheap back-up, go to Fulham in the summer with a million quid and get McBride in for a season.
  14. James makes more mistakes, but is the better goalkeeper. I bet over the course of the season he prevents more goals from his all round command of the box and shot-stopping, even with his errors. Could easily put up with the mistakes. I suppose it's like a centre-forward. Bellamy misses hatfuls of chances, but because his all-round game is excellent, you accept these over someone like say Andy Johnson who is a better finisher but not a better player.
  15. Yep I agree there. Sell him for £14m, let Real Madrid give him 2-years rehab, operations, etc. then sign him back on loan when his injury problems have been solved. I remember in the 2003-4 season, it was always Campbell & Ferdinand, with Terry & Woodgate neck and neck behind them.
  16. How about the Costa PECAN international striker, Paulo WanDRUPE.
  17. They've said £20m because they don't want to sell him. Simple as. Why should they turn around to West Ham and say, "well actually you're right, that is a bit mental. Here, take him for £4m."? I say fair play to Bruce for sticking to his guns on this one.
  18. Good to see footballers doing this. Robert also does a similar thing for disabled & orphaned kids in the Reunion Islands.
  19. The fact that Mendes has cleared a shot from pretty much the exact spot Carroll scooped his shot from the halfway-line away from 2 years ago is f*cking immense.
  20. Again though, it was at a time Blackburn were building something useful. In his first 3 years there, he finished 4th, 2nd, 1st, so it's not like he joined a nothing team, and in 1992 when he joined Blackburn, Man U had won only a few cups in some time, not the force they were soon to become.
