  1. Curiously, the opposite of this was mooted by Gary Neville during his analysis of the Arsenal game, his comment was that our shape was fundamentally fine but individual errors were ultimately costing us. The Fulham game seems to bare this out, Hooiveld didn't need to pounce on the ball for their first goal, it was going wide. It also took a deflection to breach us a second time, although the failure to track/cut out the run down the right and then allow Richardson space to shoot in front of the area was questionable. Yoshida looked good in terms of his positioning/mobility at full back but his short/medium range distribution was terrible, against Villa he looked dominant. Even taking out the Arsenal game where he was thrown in at the deep end, He needs to be judged on more then these two games.
  2. It's almost a shame to see the goals fly in now, it'll only serve to help bury what had been a dreadfully unimaginative performance.
  3. Can't help but want the underdogs to do well, even if they are playing against us tonight. Good luck to the Salesman, the Olive Oil company worker, the Student, the Accountant, the Bank Clerk and the Bar Owner against the 11 prima donna's. Forza San Marino.
  4. Quite a surprise really. Apparently a mixture of his desire to return to the south coast and the ambition of Bournemouth attracted him back. What does it say about Burnley though? Certainly an odd one. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/19927379
  5. He is comparing a club that this season has lost to Stirling Albion with one that has beaten a former European Champion 4-1. Yes, that ignores a lot of other factors, but still. Perspective and all that.
  6. Yes! What's the shirt's condition like?
  7. They are stripping him of his Tour De France wins, what are the odds that the guys in second, third, fourth place all cheated too in a vain attempt to keep up with him? Where does this end?

    A word to the wise, I decided to invest in one of these a few days ago: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Xbox-360-Wireless-Wheel/dp/B00128WLGK/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1349898230&sr=8-5 Finally had time to try it out this evening, immediately shaved two seconds off my best lap time around Catalunya. So much more precise in the long corners then the wireless 'speed wheel'... which in itself isn't exactly a bad controller! Managed to find one for £65 on ebay.
  9. Castleford X-scape kicks it's arse.
  10. Yes, let's rival such amazing places as Weston Super Mare, Tamworth and Castleford.
  11. They are full of match reports, interviews with players, looks at the opposition. Some special features (e.g. past games etc.) Looks at the reserves, u19's, u17's etc. Also include the obligatory statistics, appearances etc. A fair few adverts but it's a well produced magazine. It frustrated the father a fair bit last year that they would sell out usually about 20 minutes before kick off. They are still interesting, but as is the nature now, a good amount of the data in them can be obtained on the interwebs.
  12. Quite enjoyed that!
  13. http://www.tvcatchup.com ? Worth a try.
  14. Where is Dad going to buy his program from then?
  15. So, he's dead, therefore can't testify his innocence... and therefore cannot be proven guilty. How about someone who never confesses but is alive, can they still be proven guilty? More to the point, if anyone is found to have been directly complicit in the investigations and they are still alive.... they need to be brought to justice.
  16. Genuinely LOL. I need a new keyboard after I spat diet coke all over it.
  17. Hi Jimmy. Hang on, isn't that the little girl from School of Rock? (Above link..... yes, it's the actress Miranda Cosgrove.... aka the gobby, teacher's pet know it all from School of Rock)
  18. Yep. Still looking...... Come on, someone must be keen to sell. I provide better rates then Cash converters.....
  19. Oh, some of the acting is chronic in the first series. But yes, I'm am in the process of watching it all the way through and am now at the end of Series 3. 2 to go and I am watching it as quickly as possible in an effort to avoid the temptation to read spoilers as much as anything else... It just keeps getting better and better. The biggest laugh came to me watching the show when the guy who played the 'Q' equivalent in the Austin Powers films showed up as a guy who believed he was King Arthur...

    Torture

    Torture sure does get answers. Whether they are the right answers is another matter entirely...
  21. I found it consistently funny over the entire run of ten years. Even the Simpsons couldn't manage that.
  22. The Sopranos Friends Star Trek DS9 Babylon 5 Battlestar Galactica (Remake) Firefly The West Wing Tempted to start watching the wire, but worried that i'll end up losing all of my time to it. If the second series of Homeland can match the first then I would add that here too.
