Got to admire the dedication in researching that.

Yeah, I don't really play FIFA to have the 'authentic' experience of having imaginary penalties given against me. Ridiculous how often great ball winning tackles are penalised.

Particularly true of his little cameo against Chelsea yesterday. Was amazing!

Yeah, that sounds very encyclopaedic!

Eboué likeable? Oh no no no no no.

"Sports Direct Arena" and "Mike Ashley" trending worldwide.

Not too bothered either way, maybe a slight lean more towards no. Which is a great thing to be able to say and think when I remember how I felt the day he was sold.

Fucking hell

Pretty sure they actually are saying "Demba Ba Ba" even!

I love the fact that the number has meaning too. But on its own it's just a number, only when put on someone's back can it potentially become legendary. With nobody ever wearing it there's no chance. We've had crappy forwards, and I'm sure had crappy number nines too. I just feel it's a shame to wait until someone has a good/great season to then give it to them when they could have been wearing it all along.

I think I've got it... Not Really Sure What's Going On?

The forced mysticism of the number 9 is getting a little much. Hopefully some one will pick it up next Summer. 2 years with it being vacant would be ridiculous. Would have had no problem with Best getting it this year if he wanted it.

Is this one of those "don't think about your breathing" things making it all you can think about then ruining your day?

Apparently an In Form Cabaye is on his way this week!

The wow factor brought on by GTA 3 was really starting to be stretched by the time 4 came along. The first one I ever played was Vice City and it remains one of my favourite ever games. Can't say I'm that giddy about this new game but I'll still be getting it obviously. Hope they make it more fun.

Bump. This one really is doing a perfect job so far: http://www.markthisdate.com/calendar/Newcastle_United_2011_2012_12601.html Got games from all competitions, and always up to date.

True. Another reason my English team has reached its glass ceiling. Would cost a fortune getting better players in most positions. Just like in real like, they are terribly overpriced

Hmmm I shall be blaming that one on swype.

The most important part of an abortion joke is the delivery.

Can't stop saying the title of this thread to the tune of "Knights in White Satin".

That photo especially has been around the internet so many times.... still amazing and never gets old though. Need to watch Hall Pass, tbh. Complete your research on her.

Equipe du Dimanche (French highlights show) piece on Cabaye and the Spurs game (subtitled):

Lost could have been some epic shit. For me, the last couple of seasons ruined it.
