  1. On today's evidence, Moyes 4 midfielders in his 4-4-2, look very average, but Man City look absolute quality - Negredo ... wow.
  2. Why's this guy a free agent though?
  3. He is brilliant, absolutely brilliant! I cursed Liverpool for getting Sakho (who will be a very good player for them), but Lovren is immense - pleased he scored. He'll be a real leader for us I'm sure, definite future team and club captain.
  4. Nah, I like Wales - great country, cracking people!
  5. It's called managing expectations. They spread their delivery loads over various logistics/delivery services, some of them are over-stretched. For example, buy clothes and more than likely DPD will delivery. Buy electronis and it'll be Yodel/HDNL. Buy books and it'll be Royal Mail more often than not. As online commerce increases, it's actually logistics and delivery that can't keep pace. To counter act this and manage expectations of delivery times more, Amazon seem to be extending the expected delivery day further to avoid complaints over something that's actually slightly beyond their control. Of course, if you pay for Amazon Prime (as you absolutely should), you'll get free next day delivery when available which works 99.9% of the time, courier independent as long as you're in.
  6. Here is my extremely erudite view on the subject; F**k them. I would love England and Wales to be independent from the UK.
  7. Ah, but now we have multi-coloured laces, many straight players will pretend to be gay to get down with it.
  8. Oh the irony, proper "new internet" that is.
  9. Must admit, I'm not keen. It's kind of irrational, but I occasionally see someone wearing one on the tube and I always find it a bit odd. Just reminds me of Darth Vadar ... Okay, maybe not Darth Vadar, but I do have some irrational negative thoughts about who is wearing it and why, especially when occasionally you get someone who is tall. I do find it highly hypocritical as well; whilst going on holiday in the summer, we stopped at Doha. Apart from being the worst airport in the world, all the blokes were in shorts and t-shirts dragging their women around in the full gear. I think they need some cra-burning feminists and rainbow lace trainer wearers to enlighten them ...
  10. Weakest link? Freak.
  11. I kept saying that when Brown & Blair were pushing for at least 50% of everyone to go to "University". Why? What is the point when it just means you have more people out of work with degrees and those jobs that require degrees, now look at hiring those with a masters or higher in order to differentiate.
  12. No, he'll be Dave, John or Emma. Call Centre Michael; one tip for you ... don't answer and then disconnect the phone straight away occasionally on people to get your average call time stats down. That has to be the most irritating habit they have.
  13. What's the big deal with it being plastic anyway? The first thing everyone does is bung some cheap crappy cover over it, normally made of plastic ...
  14. Then you were in a tiny minority.
  15. Did you enjoy it? Yes or no.
  16. And, so what? There's no shame in that, Ronaldo has a talent with his feet, he'll do that to many players. Personally I'd have kicked his f**king legs to pieces, but I don't have his skill.
  17. Agree with the analysis on Zaha - he will be a very good player, no question. But on the basis of being able to compare them directly last night, I'd say that Redmond looked the more astute recent purchase of the two. I was also suitably impressed with Berahino!! Shaw was of course, excellent; though not yet ready to replace Cole - Baines is ahead of him in the pecking order, rightly so at the moment based on defensive ability and top flight experience, but it won't be long - he's only 18 for Christ sake!!
  18. That's a really nice, promising set of nippers in that team!!
  19. Cherno Samba? Wasn't he the "wonder kid" (or whatever they were called then) on Championship Manager 2002 or something??
  20. All joking aside; Paulo Ferreira as a back up and for the youngsters to learn from?? Could do worse ...
  21. I still don't get temporary exclusion - it's hardly a punishment, is it? "You've been naughty, go home for a week" ... ?
  22. I went years ago, bought tickets on the day at the stadium and got the train from the central station to the arena with the locals. Was all very easy! But that was over 10 years ago now.
  23. I would laugh if there was one, full of similar helmets. Actually, knowing Man U's global fan base, it'll be full of helmets from the far east ...
  24. Christ on a bike, most of our fans are complete helmets.
