The same places Roeder did in his attempts to sign Neill, Huth, Knight and Bridge. The first 3 could have been attempted a lot earlier to allow time for to and fro bidding and persuasion - thats what is pissing me and a lot of other off.

1 Boss was away so had an easy run down of a Friday afternoon (after a furious morning spent cursing Microsoft) 2 It took me 3.5 hours to get home as opposed to 35 minutes due to One Railway fuck-ups 3 I have an extremely runny nose 4 I'm going to the gym tomorrow for the first time in 3 weeks (due to previous cold + Reading festival) so expect to be sore and tender on Sunday. 5 Off to bed but have set a load of porn downloading for tomorrow.

When the news broke my first thought was that he was a defender - I thought he was a right back - my mistake - anothing fucking "attacking" midfielder. I agree with Gemmill - 2 guilty men have written off our season. .

Meds - Placebo

To quote Paul Heaton: "If she was so against landmines then why didn't she visit the british factories where they're made - ah yes, no photogenic brown babies with missing limbs" I hate beatification of the dead - she was a self-serving, manipulative, parasitical bitch. I also think that Elton John should be hanged for crimes against music for Candle in the Wind.

A lot of reactions seem to forget about Martins - if this was our only striker signing then off the deep end responses would be fair enough. I'd liked to have seen something else but I don't see too much wrong with the deal per se.

Possibly, but that ignores FS's failure as well if Roeder gave him a list.

I missed the monday after the 98 cup final - told the boss the truth the next day - spent all weekend drinking and didn't wake up until 4pm on the Monday afternoon.

I went to Reading and stayed in a hotel - not middle class, just old and soft. Catmag you could still look classy in wellies I'm sure - I found denim skirt/ green welly ensembles strangely attractive this weeked... Highlights were Muse and Pearl Jam.

The most ironic thing about the SMB for me is the number of "plastic mags" and "pre-1992" jibes when apart from about 5 of the posters I doubt any of them either stood at Roker or had pubes when they did so. John Kay FFS.

Spent most of the day putting minimal effort in due to pre-holiday couldn't be arsedness. Found out a possible work trip to Singapore which was looking doubtful is back on the agenda Disn't have any dinner so had Fish & chips for tea. Off to Reading tomorrow. Watching the match at home with a couple of cans.

Stop this feeling sorry for them shit right now. All I ever need is to picture Rat Boy in the rain.

I find it funny that they seemed willing to forget the 18 months not trying and £1m departure tax when he knew they were skint and welcome "the legend" back but now he's instantly hated again.

I love the way they were within 4 years of champions' league glory with O'Neill at the helm and of course we were all shitting ourselves. Wake up and smell reality you bastards!!

Decapitated? on a motorbike? 181589[/snapback] My best mate has for years told me that when we were kids and playing football once we heard a car accident and when we went over I found a motor bike helmet a distance from the crash that wasn't empty shall we say. I have absolutely no recollection of this and his forcefulness in telling it seems honest.

He played a bit like that against Spurs and had another couple of good games before he was crocked but I do think theres an element of him "wanting" it more at West Ham.

Student or no student, the day "£7.50" is a limiting factor in anything is a sad one imo. You then get into the argument that £4 or whatever would be okay - £4->£7.50 is not worth even thinking about.

I've been feeling shitty for about 10 days so came straight home from work - need an overnight recovery as I've decided to go to V tomorrow - off to bed in a minute.

"It seemed like a good idea at the time"

Christ we must be shite - nobody's said ST yet 2. Some momentoes I have of my Mam and Dad 3. Bikes

Always thought of myself as lucky/a bit of a wimp - no broken bones - got clipped by a taxi on a zebra crossing when I was 7 and was on crutches but only badly bruised. I have a small scar on my lip where a mate hit me in the mouth with a cricket bat (I was fielding short) - pisser was it was the Friday we broke up for summer hols and I had to stop in for 2 weeks.

Whichever Wallace brother it was - Rangers. You can add Kezman to your list of exports that succeeded - oh, shit you can't. I'm impressed by Kuyt's record but despite me almost willing him on in the WC he was absolutely dire.

Show the scouse bastard the footage of him after Bowyer got sent off the other year.

Yes but despite their efforts it only made sense imo if you'd seen the series and therefore were "invested" in the characters. I didn't think the film was that good either in fairness though.

Correct. Also apart from the obvious Buffy/Angel try Jeremiah, Dark Angel and Weeds. 175760[/snapback] If you haven't seen the short-lived Firefly, it's among the best television I've seen in ages. 175790[/snapback] I liked Firefly (especially the latter episodes) and it had a lot of promise and it shouldn't have been cancelled... but I had an irrational bias against it because Fox axed Dark Angel for it which I loved. I now tend to wait and see if a series "makes it" before committing to it (I'm a download addict) because I'm sick of too many embryonic axes - most recently Threshold which I did take a risk in watching because of the Goddess Carla.
