  1. Anyone else just getting a feeling of relief? It's not like how a win normally feels, it's just relief that finally we're getting a good result.

    Relief through to good humour.

     

    Still think we'd have been in trouble if they had gone 4-4-2 and let Bellers run the channels, but 3-0 isn't anything to complain about.

  2. Whats an Emo?

    Thats what I was wondering. Think its a bit like a goth.

    I've had them explained to me roughly. In the male case they are super sensitve with floppy hair. They like bands such as My chemical romance. Apparantl there have been three waves of emo the first being back in the 80's.

     

    The urban dictionary says:

    Genre of softcore punk music that integrates unenthusiastic melodramatic 17 year olds who dont smile, high pitched overwrought lyrics and inaudible guitar rifts with tight wool sweaters, tighter jeans, itchy scarfs (even in the summer), ripped chucks with favorite bands signature, black square rimmed glasses, and ebony greasy unwashed hair that is required to cover at least 3/5 ths of the face at an angle.

    ::sniff sniff:: "The Demise of the Siberian Traintracks of Our Rusty Forgotten Unblemished Love" sounds like it would make a great emo band name. ::lol::

     

    and

     

    Punk music on estrogen. Often acoustic guitar with soft, high male vocals that dwell exessively on the singer's feelings, especially melancholy remembrances of past relationships/mistakes in life. A form of music that diverged from punk in the '80s, the name "emo" is derived from the emotive style of the lyrics and music. This genre has lately been marketed heavily by the music industry to teenagers with bands such as Dashboard Confessional and Taking Back Sunday, and has seen much commercial and mainstream success. The music has also spawned a subculture which conforms to certain conventions in dress such as tight sweatshirts, tight band T-shirts and horn-rim glasses. Adherents profess to exessively melancholy temperments. Males that adhere to the emo subculture are sometimes confused with metrosexuals; indeed the line between the two is somwhat blurred, though both groups claim to be intouch with their emotional side. The ephemeral and hackneyed nature of emo songwriting suggests that its audience will be restricted largely to teenagers. the genre suffers from a lack of credibility outside the aforementioned demographic group, much like current Nu Metal bands.

    girlfriend: C'mon, lets have sex.

    boyfriend: I'm too sad to have sex.

    girlfriend: I'm sad too; lets have sex and cry.

    boyfriend: I'm already crying.

  3. The whole thought of trying to find another manager is almost enough to make me want to bury my head in the sand. I just feel like it is going to be a nightmare. FF mentioned in some interview that he liked British managers, fuck knows why as since Keegan the only Jonny Foreigner is the only one that walked away not wanting a pay off, so that leaves the likes of Bruce. The managers already on the out with their current teams. Nope Souness should never have been appointed and yes he should have gone last season, but the man that made the descisions is the man that appoints our next manager. He gives them cash but I'd be on tenderhooks all the way through the re-staffing situation.

  4. Prices have spiralled out into silly numbers and there is so much football on tv it was unheard of. 12.15 and 5.15 kick offs for relitavly unimprotant matches. Why pay the cash for it when you can watch it inthe pub for the price of a pint. Sky's greed has helped run down turnstiles while paying off the clubs for tv rights. Doesn't help with clubs insisting on top dollar for every match.

     

    Go back to no matches on the Saturday and two on a Sunday. Also it wouldn't harm for clubs to discount for awkward, midweek matches esp. Europe and cup games.

     

    Suppose greed is at the centre of it, like every industry.
