  1. Tbh I was wondering about the need for four minutes injury time as well.
  2. I'm quite amused is all. Amused and amazed at quite how right I was/am. It's also quite interesting in the amount of psychological denial (in someone like yourself) that goes into claiming I'm obsessed with a thread this is all to do with "me", and clearly intended to set up the "villain". Yet blissfully ignores the sheer level of mentalist obsession it takes for someone like Ketsbaia to make a thread like this in the first place, never mind of the obsessional mob mentality of the usual suspects/ghoulish attempt at "mobbing" that so predictably ensued and maintains this. It's frankly fascinating. See, all I did in the beginning was posting a gardening advice. Something I've been doing here for years in various threads that are or turning into total humbug. So it had absolutely nothing to do with you as a person. Still you call me a "usual suspect" and speak of some kind of "psychological denial" (appropriate use of quotation marks by the way). I'll leave you with your obsession with yourself and your believe that you are a villain.
  3. 68 posts in this thread, nearly half of them from Fop. I guess Fop is obsessed with himself a bit too much tbh. This post is dedicated to Fop.
  4. Encouraging Amphibians Britain has three native frogs and toads, and three species of newts. Of these, the common frog and common toad are likely to be found in gardens throughout Britain. The common or smooth newt and the palmate newt are also widely distributed. Some garden ponds may have the scarce great crested newt, while some gardens, especially in south east England may have the non-native green marsh frogs. A pond habitat for amphibians - photograph copyright T.SandallThese animals feed on a wide range of insects and other small invertebrate animals, including some garden pests. Although the adults and juveniles do most of their feeding on land, all of these amphibians must have still water, such as a pond, in which they will mate and lay eggs. The eggs hatch into tadpoles that initially feed on algae but later they also feed on insects that have fallen in the water and drowned. The tadpoles gradually develop legs and, in the case of frogs and toads, reabsorb their tails, to take on the appearance of a baby frog, toad or newt. These beneficial garden creatures can be helped by providing a pond or other water body where the tadpoles can develop. It is helpful to have at least one side of the pool that gradually slopes up to dry land. This enables the young amphibians to leave the water in mid summer once the tadpole stage is over. If the pond has steep sides, fit a ramp covered in chicken wire in one corner. Small amphibians can be heavily predated by birds, so grow plants around the pool to provide some cover. When in the pond, frogs and toads need a point above the water on which to rest and breathe. In the summer a water lily pad may suffice but a more permanent solution is to position a few rocks or logs half in and half out of the water. Attract amphibians Newts are probably the most aquatic of Britsh amphibians. Attract them by allowing grass to grow over the pond edge into the water and introducing non-invasive submerged aquatics. Newts use narrow-leaved water plants on which to lay their eggs, folding each egg between a leaf. In the autumn, amphibians will seek sheltered places where they hibernate until the following spring. Log piles provide good shelters but frogs, toads and newts will also find suitable places in hedge bottoms, compost heaps and under stones. Sometimes they will hibernate in the bottom of ponds. To avoid disturbing amphibians, especially in the hibernation period, ponds should not be cleaned out unless this is really necessary. http://www.rhs.org.uk/advice/profiles1204/amphibians.asp (sorry for the lack of italics and bold print)
  5. He (Ebby) has been doing it for several decades now (not from Munich but from Duisburg in the western part of Germany). IIRC he married an English woman a couple of years ago.

    Sorry like. Must have been the curry I had... http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/arti...in_page_id=1770
  7. That what Isegrim said to Happy Face's aunty? Don't worry, I only chat up taxi drivers... Plus, by the time you actually got there she was fast asleep.. See, I am not even good at chatting up taxi drivers. I thought the line "wanna drive me home?" would really get them going...

  9. Played marra, I totally refuse to take pens in 5 / 6 a side games, arse twicthes like mad I scored one and the keeper pulled of a fantastic save for my second penalty at the TT summer tourny. I am win.
  10. Spot on. actually, the media often underestimate what the players actually earn. Really?
  11. I always spare my judgement until he has done more that can actuelly be assessed. So far we more or less only know that he is there but not what he actually does. People are always far too quick with praise imho, e.g. Pearson/Round/Hughton has sorted out the defence.
  12. Transfer fees quoted in English tabloids are always mental and probably even make foreign clubs believe they can demand those prices. A couple of weeks Deco was rated to be worth 15m quid in the English press, but only 8m Euro (!) in Germany when linked with Bayern.
  13. i'd disagree there. i think barton is a very average - he's slow and doesn't score goals. Bullard is hardly a prolific goalscorer as well. People are overstating the need of midfielders scoring goals anyway. There are very few Ballacks, Lampards and Scholes around...
  14. Why don't people just forget about Diego once and for all. He is as likely as a swarm of flying pigs. Arshavin looked pretty good in the first leg against Leverkusen tbh. It will be interesting how he copes against Bayern in the semis.
  15. If he was signed as one of the promised 'quality' players yes, but as a squad player he would be a huge step up from the likes of Emre imho. I think having someone like Bullard is also pretty good for team spirit.
  16. See I have a hessian bag with the Hessen Kassel logo on it. Superhessiantastic tbh.
  17. Emre? Emre is coming close, but doesn't reach the necessary level of twatness. Twaterazzi on the other hand... There's even a clue in the name and everything. Oh, I am pretty sure Emre means twat in Turkish.

  19. I can't think of a player I can less stand than Twatuso. A kicking, diving, whinging arsehole of a player.
  20. Funny, last summer he would have been considered an injury prone striker from a dodgy league with a poor goal record... I am surprised about how well he coped with English football as well tbh.
  21. You say that like you don't wait for it to happen cock in hand.
  22. Another thread that got fopped.
  23. Could finally get a Toontasic vs Newcastle Online game on I'll better not play in this one then as I can forsee lunging tackles from the Obefem fanclub...
  24. bad idea. I'd be surprised if Keegan was happy with this If it affects the state of the pitch it is stupid, if there are plans to relay the pitch ahead of the season anyway I don't see a problem.
  25. Dalglish was a class footballer no one disputes that, but the other two, who I have put first and second, were the leading men and fundamental reasons their countries won World Cups. No disrespect to anyone on this thread, but some of the names that have been mentioned in front of Zidane and Matthaus, are utterly staggering. Maybe a lot of people are put off by the fact Zidane is so recent, but it would be interesting to know if Baggio rates himself as being better than Zidane. As for Matthaus, still playing for Germany at 40, adn still tehir best player, albeit in a shit side. Zidane lit the 1998 World Cup Final up, and Matthaus was simply unplayable for the majority of the 1990 World Cup, a 5-1 against Yugoslavia stands out. True proven World class and World Cup winners. Baggio pretty much carried Italy to the final of the '94 World Cup though. I'd say the same for Mattheus in 1990 tbh. The West Germany side was not as good as everyone made it out to be but the difference over the whole tournament was Mattheus for me... Matthäus is in everybody's thought because he gave the team a confident start with his great performances, especially against Yugoslavia. Though, later in the tournament it was much more down to other players like Guido Buchwald who played the best football of his life. Looking at the squad I Germany had the best set of players of all teams. Kohler's one of the best central defenders I've ever seen fwiw. Brehme was a great player too. Hassler was quality too and Klinsman was probably at his peak. I wasn't a big fan of Klinsmann before, but his performance against Holland was just outstanding and totally changed my opinion. I agree about Kohler, I struggle to think of a better player in this position. In 1990 even squad players like Littbarski, Bein, Riedle, Thon were of international class. A total difference to the next generation of players who were mostly just average.
