Portishead ridiculously low being that it's far and away the best thing that's came out this year. I'm enjoying The Hold Steady, My Morning Jacket & Spiritualized albums quite a bit at the moment too. And the Hilotrons album is pretty good. Overall though I think it's been a fairly poor year for music so far. Other than Portishead most artists that I was anticipating releases from have failed to match expectations and there hasn't been much new stuff that has excelled. There was far better stuff in the last three years.

In Bruges - 8/10 Cracking film best thing I've seen Farrell in. The bits with the fat Americans and when he smacks the dwarf are gold. Kung Fu Panda - 7/10 Much better than Ratatouile but not as good as the likes of Toy Story or Monsters Inc. The part fits Black really well.

This sounds very promising. Sounds like he has a bit about him (pace, a golod engine, height) that might help him to adapt to.

No idea how good he is (the opinion of makems counts for nothing) but it would be worth it for comedy effect alone. The lad of Skunkers old source was Shepherd's son (I'm sure he said this last year after the clowns left town) so this might not be as reliable as his past rumours!

Great news that we've signed a right winger who isn't Larsson or Pennant and even better that it's an out of the blue deal. That lifts my spirits no end. Hope he's good but that he's a current Argie international has to be a good sign.

Happiness. Fucking hell it's as black a comedy as I've ever seen.

Disturbia. Not bad although obviously not as good Rear Window.

Number 5 in the UK charts: Hurrah! Top 3 still consists of Coldplay, Duffy and Neil Diamond: Bah! I imagine 90% of the people who have bought it will only listen to it a couple of time before giving up though!

First Snow. Guy Pearce as a bloke who gets told by a fortune teller that he has no future past the first snow. Not bad Pearce is good as always. Planet Terror. Brilliant, I thought it worked perfectly as was more fun than Death Proof. The Good The Bad & The Ugly. Arguably the greatest film ever made. Not a film but the last episode of Twin Peaks. Brilliant. How's Annie?

Sigur Ros's new one. Pretty good.

Fucking hell this is getting more and more depressing by the day. We finally get rid of the fat man but manage to find the tightest billionaire on the planet who replaces a manager who is used to working with small budgets and replaces him with a manger who is good at spending. We really are a comedy club and it's no wonder people are thinking the worst. At the moment we need about £20m to simply pad out the squad and yet Ashley wants to challenge for honours with this amount. You know what, I think Torres might be right for once.

Good album Something Of An End is a brilliant song. She has a new one out too. The Notwist - The Devil, You + Me

Reminded me quite a bit of Gilliam's stuff. Reminds me I have City of Lost Children still to watch.

Must get round to watching that, it's been Sky +'d since Christmas. John Carpenter season on Sci Fi next week I noticed last night while watching the magnificent Highlander.

First two albums were both excellent and the third would have been really good too if it wasn't so overblown. Since then they've done the occasional good song but the albums are patchy at best. The last one is shite though.

Someone at work is moving house and wants sky in the new house but as always sky are wanting to charge to move them over. I told him not to go along with this as all you have to do is cancel and re join at the new address under your lass's name as a new customer and as such you get all of new user benefits. He threatened sky with this and they said that you can't do this now as they go off the electoral role and would pick up the family tie and would end up charging them £200. This sounds like shit to me (I swapped at Christmas and had no problems). Anyone know if this is bullshit or true?

My Morning Jacket - Evil Urges

RIP

Apparently what they do in Iceland right, they kill the shark, chop it up, bury it in the ground for six months and eat the cunt. The shark meat is poisonous if eaten straight away, what's it taste like? Shark is nice, was quite a bit like Marlin from memory. I had some Bison and Gator recently. Both were very nice.

Reading article isn't always a strength of this board

Aimar is probably a more realsitc target than the likes of Van Der Vart or Arshavin and is possibly capable of better than them too. Whether he ever recaputre that type of form is probably questionable though and he doesn't realy fit in with the young up and comers strategy we are supposed to be following. Would be worth a punt at the money they are sugeesting though!

I would agree with this. I think Lennon would be a good signing. People say he hasn't progressed at Spurs but he seems to have been stuck out on the left quite a bit too.

The Rock. Considering Nicholas Cage's downward spiral since Leaving Las Vegas it's actually a pretty entertaining action film. I realised while watching though that Connery improves any film he's in by about 10%. That being the case it's hard to imagine how bad The League Of Extraodinary Gentlemen would have been without him.

We have about as much chance of signing Arshavin as we do Ronaldo. He's fucking brilliant. Mind you with Owen in his new position I'm not sure how we would play them!

So does their left back. Tbh most of the russians look very good.
