The game is on, and the line ups are not yet available.

We need to stay calm, he seems to be a player that polarises opinion but there are some who do seem to rate him quite a lot! Lets not make the grave mistake of writing him off before we have seen him slot into our system of play. Save that instead for Anthony Pulis.

Any chance that we can just make this the 'Official African Cup of Nations' thread? My money is on Benin for this one!

Three words summarise the need for this signing. Strength in Depth.

Hmmmm, according the the holy gospel (wikipedia) a Centre or Left back.

Unless the Skates are holding some serious material on the Premier League, then this should be laughed out of the factory.

Considering the mess they are in, it is in the best interests of the Premier League AND Sport in general to see them relegated and heavily punished for their reckless overspending. The line in the sand needs to be drawn, it must become inexcusable for clubs to be able to overspend in the hope that 'investment' will come in from an outside source. Cardiff could be the next lot to go pop while waiting for a white knight, the watershed must begin now!

And 'if' they survive? Imagine the s**t storm that would bring.

Ah, the old F**k you all approach.

What the hell? Hope the little skates pull through.

After the patience they have already had, surely there would be outcry at that!

5417? It'll really take a stretch of the imagination to get that one.

Expulsion?

No fans of Livestock then?

There should be a minimum charge for Alcohol. Talk of 'cheap crap' would then be irrelevant as higher quality products would then be at the same price as the mass produced fizz that solely exists to get the dregs and tearaway teenagers leathered. It would also price many people out of getting leathered as a lifestyle and hopefully let them get some perspective. Pubs would have a chance to be competitive again and maybe, just maybe there could be a chance for the social aspects they bring to thrive again. The smoking ban does need to be re-appraised though, because that is the big killer on public houses.

103 minutes and counting.

This must surely be the moment when the whole house of cards comes crashing down. All the loans must be secured against TV money and if the club sees none of it, surely the terms of the loans will be breached....

Or even the 'Skate Bait' thread. The thread title change should only occur when they die though. So only a few hours left until the final domino trail begins to tumble!

Can't beat a bit of Tailstock. The backbone of lathe based industry.

Yes, the same resulted in points penalties for AC Milan, Lazio, Fiorentina and Reggina.

Was quite funny hearing him say he wouldn't trade 'all the money in the world' for the FA Cup. Especially considering that it seems his beloved club attempted to do just that!

Van Persie signs for Dyson.

That really worked well for him here didn't it!

Lets hope he does. That contract was signed in good faith, they should honour it. Not Utaka's fault if they couldn't follow it up.

Remind me, how many seemingly innocent words are also slang for boobies?
