  1. When I was in Germay I used to go out with a girl who rode a Vespa. Wjen i stayed at hers I would make her drop me off a street away from camp so no one could see me getting a lift on it.
  2. Hmmm, interesting reading. Rodders is confirming that there was money available in the window but he didn't want to buy what was available. He says he is taking a gamble on his job with this decision not to buy anyone. That sentence could also be easily written as 'I've taken a gamble with NUFC' which is, ultimately, the main consideration. However, I have to say that he has gone up a few notches in my estimation for being so brave, as I don't want to see dross brought in just for the sake of it. I hope it works out for him but only time will tell. Or alternatively I f*cked up and ran around like a headless chicken and went to see people a million times and by the time I made my decision it was too late. Like in games where I can see we are crap but can't make up my mind until I put subs on 7 minutes from time.
  3. Was meant to be getting turned into a film directed by Michael Mann, but seems to have slipped off the radar. He went and did Collateral instead. Shame that, it'll probably never be made now because of 300 which better be good because if it's not it's a disservice to one of history's great stories. The Spartans were sort of the Nazi's of the ancient world and are a compelling subject. I don't think Nazi is a particularly fair comparison (except in the most indirect military sense, some thing Alexander and the Roman’s repeated really), both because the world was a vastly different place, and because Sparta did both somewhat directly and indirectly influence Athenian democracy (in some ways they were much more liberal and equal than them, in fact, although in many ways not), which is pretty much at least the barest ideological framework of the modern idea. But they are fascinating though definitely (as is most of Mediterranean history of that time period tbh). That's why I said "sort of" Nearest contemporary comparison IMO though, much more so than the Romans or Alexander I don't really think there is a contemporary comparison though, they were and are (and probably always will be) fairly unique as a society, as well as the world of that time being a vastly different place, so as I said one like the nazi's is pretty unfair. In fact in many ways a “nazi” comparisons could be made to the Persian empire of the time (although that would be equally unfair tbh). The nazi’s were a perversion and corruption of fairly modern society (even though they repeatedly hailed back to Romanish roots this was never really true), where as the Spartans were very much of their time and world, albeit in a very unique way. No big deal I guess, just as I said I don’t think very fair to them. My utmost admiration Fop for not saying that comparing the Spartans to the Nazis is complete bollocks and only made by people who have no idea who and what the Spartans were.
  4. Kiddy fiddler wouldn't cross the road to piss on him if he was on fire. But then the yanks forgive their kiddy fiddlers more.
  5. Jay and Silent Bob is a great film. I loved it.
  6. Or McClaren. He got the job on the back of 3 flukey results in Europe he has never looked like emulating.
  7. accomplished managers like Mourinho, Ferguson, Luiz Felipe Scolari and Guus Hiddink influence games by their charismatic presence on the touchline, or decisive tactical changes and substitutions. None out of 3 for Rodders.
  8. Maybe it will stop him hoofing the ball to the opposition midfield.
  9. I'm not in love with Roeder or anything. I just feel that there are always alternative viewpoints, and the board would be one big circle-jerk if someone didn't point them out! Circle jerk Yay!!!!!
  10. Had to order one from debenhams. Nowhere else had them and could give any sort of delivery promise.
  11. Roeder is 52 and has been a football manager for a long time. He shopuld no longer be learning stuff like how to spot a good player from a bad. He should now just be learning new forms of training and diet. maybe new tactical thinking. But not how to use subs and change a game. Or that playing a crap player just because that is his position. The man is a joke of a manager.
  12. Fuck me, a sequel already? I had been listening to PE.
  13. Voted England player of the year, by the fans. He was England's top scorer in those qualifiers. Still, he's shit I wouldn't trust your average Engerlund fan to pick their own nose never mind a player of the year
  14. I know some gynaecological attachments that make men obsolete never mind impotent.
  15. I am looking forward to the Scottish elections. The STV will make the parliament more fun. Should bring it in south of the border.
  16. Oh it's no joke! The gays love eurovision. Love it or absolutely despise it, as a rule. Mind, that probably goes for the population as a whole, just the proportions are different. I'm afraid it's all true, Renton. The wife took me to one of our friends eurovision parties last year. Never seen so many pink cowboy hats angel and fairy wings in my life. And there was only about 10 people there think they had like 3 sets of each one each.
  17. I have been with a couple of girls that enjoyed it. Have to say I found the experience not unpleasant.
  18. Oh it's no joke! The gays love eurovision. I am finished at one and my mate Patrick from the comedy circuit is coming up.
  19. Cheers lads they are like rocking horse shit. What's with that. Surely they should just make enough for everyone. Want black steel looks chop sockey tastic.
  20. His "handler" looks a bit blokey too.
  21. It is a fuck of a budget. Labour finally come out as no longer the party of the poor people. Wankers. I will not be voting for them next few elections on this. With luck they will suffer at the Scottish elections in May. They won't get in next term. Need to bring the STV into elections. Stop this majority crap.
  22. Just one more week left then I finish here and dont start new job till mid April. Old job pays me up till April 18th though. Bonus.
  23. This is probably more for after the game. But also the way they have come out recently I would say. All of the fuckers: Air on a G string, Johann Sebastien Bach.
