  1. Sorry mate. Ivan Katalinic's 'tache 0-1 Colinjb
  2. How do we know the Sky reporter ISN'T Monk!?
  3. Make of it what you will, but they did show footage of Lee Barnard in the car park.
  4. Hmmm, insulting and derisory.
  5. Behave yourself.
  6. I understand what you mean. It's easy for people to get swept along with the positive vibes though and after the progress over the last 4 years who wouldn't believe that we can aim for the stars? Naturally though when it comes to it, it will require exponentially greater resources to make smaller and smaller steps forward now. We are approaching the glass ceiling and if we fail to break it then people will be disappointed. In marketing speak people will always left happier if they are under promised and over delivered (surprise and delight!) as opposed to over promised and under delivered.
  7. A striker I believe. Scored twice against us for the Franchise. Appy 1-0 Colinjb.
  8. Lennon leaving would be a body blow to them... that much is obvious.
  9. As someone who is still addicted to the glorified spreadsheet despite approaching 30, I would hope that they are able to tell the difference between a mathematic model of sport and reality itself. Those who go stupid when our football team invariably loses a game are from many different perspectives, it's not just restricted to the data geeks.
  10. Oh, could you imagine!?
  11. Can't believe he is only 26, feels like he has been around forever! Regualar first team performer at Spurs, has even captained the odd game for them and signed a 4 year contract last summer. Can't see why he would want to come here... he is effectively part of the furniture at Spurs and will surely fancy that he can fight for an maintain his place in their side.
  12. I believe this is sadly redundant as he is almost certain to go on loan at Getafé for the season.
  13. That ties in with the performance of my employer. We are currently growing at our fastest rate since prior to the recession kicking in back in 2008.
  14. As far as I can tell Puncheon's move was motivated by the player himself, it wasn't primarily our decision. I believe he has a new born son up in Croydon and wanted to go back to be with the little one as much as he can. (Not 100% on that but completely explains the move.) Hope we can get a replacement, Tom Ince would be ideal. And Alpine, please 'Gash'ton..... such low efforts don't become you.
  15. Favourite player in the current squad? Was that playing it far too vanilla?
  16. Yep, think we relegated them to League 1 that day. And yes, that play-off semi final, his last game for us. Still can't stand Derby to this day for that, their karma came quickly in the top flight.
  17. Extremely proud to see him become the most expensive player in history. Can still remember the precocious youngster making his debut at the back end of the 05/06 season.
  18. 1-2. Both Osvaldo and Rickie scoring.
  19. Oooo, like this. 5 - Puncheon v QPR. 2012 The kickstart our season needed, asserted us as a cut above the real strugglers. 4 - Lambert v Blackpool 2011. 2-1 down, having an indifferent time of it, that late equaliser typified our spirit that year. 3 - Barnard v MK Dons 2011. Forte got the plaudits but his third secured the win and kept us right at the sharp end. 2 - Hooiveld v West Ham 2011. As jawillwill said. That was the game where we really underlined our ambition for the year. 1 - Fonte v Brighton 2011. Put us clear of Huddersfield, at that point our destiny was our own and we seized it gladly.
  20. Oh, I am in no way in a position where I think that one side is holier then thou and the other is evil, yes, they are all self interested. Your point about democracy is right, and the prime minister acquiesced to the will of the house in good grace, stuck to his belief in the course of action and accepted the will of the house. It was served. Nonetheless it was fueled by a man who frankly shouldn't have the role of leader of the opposition in the first place. Someone who should never in a million years be an election result away from office. I'm sure that my own personal politics are obvious in what I say, but I can respect Labour leaders if they have conviction, integrity and belief in their course of action. Ed Milliband is nothing but a devious slimeball.
  21. We have better squad depth now then... well, any other point I can remember! Selling Cork would be nuts. But equally, we let Punch go.
  22. If he does then it says a lot for our general public. Milliband went against his own stated desire for purely political benefit in the context of Syrian lives being lost. That individual is slime of the highest order, if he becomes prime minister I will emigrate.
  23. At least he is not investing his wages into Portsea Island!
  24. Can't agree there. I think he's going to be a star, their new Drogba. Really feel for the lad tonight.
