FFS I go out for Quiz night with Eric & come back to discover that TMS has been quoting THE BIBLE all evening? WTF? Look, I have nothing against the Bible (apart from my Lee Child 1st Editions) but really. there s a time and place for such quotes and it sure is NOT here. Clearly something VERY BAD happened to the Bear in Ibiza, maybe it was those new low cost pikey designer disco drugs or something. But, unless he spills the beans, Tokes is right, not only does he not have enough rep points to hand out but for those quotes alone he is on -9,999,999,999.99999999999999 rep points

Won't answer your b comment, but actually, bringing the WC to the Middle East per se was NOT a stupid idea, this place is as bonkers about football as the rest of the planet and they deserve the chance to watch something like this. The country itself that they chose? No issue with that, UNLESS you are a supplier or someone who wants to build stuff for them. Put simply, empirical evidence suggest they won't ever get paid. Qatar WC yeah well you said it, but an ME WC? Good idea, it was never going to be in Saudi or Kuwait (Budweiser money) Bahrain have the GP & AT THE TIME the UAE was broke. But in the summer - NO unless it is indoors.

IMHO Sharp does not have the mobility body strength or control to be effective in the PL in the style of football we now play. To have him as a starter this coming season IF we had SRL & JRod out would be a disaster. However, when games lose their shape towards the end hcdajfu IF we find nobody else and score goals. I HOPE we sign somebody better and we need better, if not I am sure he won't let us down if he gets on towards the end of games. (but IF we are chasing a game I'd rather have Mayuka on the bench, still think he will come good as he matures)
-
And so they should. It was an idiotic decision in the first place to have a summer WC in 40C heat, but then that's the problem. Players like Maya & Gaston are just dollar signs to morons in suits. There is a huge risk that a player or fan could die in Qatar in the heat of the summer, but oh no, it was all about the financials. Play it in the winter, the only sane answer. Oh no we can't because we'd lose PL & CL money...

Can anyone explain why I keep seeing Calloway adverts?

Dear Bear I knows you are always in need of a few spare Dirhams, and I have mates wot do all this computer geek stuff. Anyways, I done this computer modelling thing of him so you can know what he looks like when he gets a bit older and you can go and copyright all the images so everytime he gets married or sprogs you can clean up on the sale of the Mugs & Plates and stuff. Anyways here is my Computer Model of him all growed up, happy retirement

Meanwhile. Here is some completely random Golf. I know Tokes isn't a fan of golf but then seems everyone is getting in on the act these days. oh I am not sure Maria hit a Pigeon but she sure got a Birdie

4th place is possible Look we're all bored to death.It's the silly season. This year for the first time we have had some media attention to our pre-season. That's actually great. The only people who would be seeing this article as "new news" however will be those who have'nt followed us up through the Leagues or even via the excellent club Twitter/Social Media feeds. It has been clear for ages that we as a club have fostered Team Spirit hell it's now ingrained in this forum "don't want any big bollix signing". It's not new. As fans we've all said much the same about MP, may not believe he is YET world class but can see promise. Thing is, once the silly season is over, Results then Performances will matter. IF we get dicked 3-0 and make no chances away to WBA will this article be trotted out as an excuse? - Never mind the result, feel the love. Goodluck with that as a riposte to the new Alps Nice to see positive vibes from the media for a change, perhaps IT is really happening, perhaps we'll also become the darlings of the media as well as qualify for the CL. But come that first Saturday? It'll mean sod all.
-
Yeah yeah, all very nice, interesting and sincere. But let's see what it all really means at 5pm after the WBA game.

And damned fine work it is too AS. I find it amazing how much has changed in the past 2 years. Before that, it was me, Eric & Goodfellas Jay sitting alone in a pub (Goodfellas) down in Bur Dubai to watch occassional televised games. Then you lot on here gave me stick about Golf so me & (the now wife) wore our Sash shirts to the Desert Classic Golf and met the Smithmeister (who lurks on here now). From that we got our sh1t together & Social networked and have had 30 at a game in the pub last season and now have a "Big Family" down here. I'm from Salisbury, first went to The Dell in 67 went whenever I wasn't working or playing football home & away. 1st November I'll commiserate 20 years of being down here. (I came on an 18 month contract & got stuck). Have an ST because I know I'll be back one day and may never get the chance to get one with my mates when we become a CL club Middle Son went to his first game perched on a crush barrier on the Milton Road end, (back in the still standing days) he was dragged here aged 8, only spent Uni + 1 year in UK since then and now lives in Germany. He still gets back to games, and most weeks manages to find a bar to watch the games in. For a birthday present he actually played at SMS in the first forum match - what a day that was! Best moment was when we went to the JPT Final together.

Sorry Bearsy I can never get that far. Think you'd all go suicidal if every golf story was accompanied by a Instead of a picture. Anyway here are some bouncing bewbs to start the week I saved from a Match thread once upon a time

So was AOC

When did NC bugger up his leg? And when did things ACTUALLY go quiet on the transfer front? Or has it been quiet because NC & all the "Committee" were surrounded by the media for two weeks in Spain & Austria? Are we so broke (tm skates) that we could not afford roaming charges? Many serious questions here. Anyway, I'm in the "we have to wait to see what happens when the music stops" camp

I went to a Lidl in Italy. I bought a CoolBox for 4.99 Euros. It survived camping all round the country and EVEN survived coming back as checked in baggage on the flight home filled with bottles of Vino, Cheese & Salamis. It is a way better cool box than the old Coleman Box I bought about 15 years ago. All things are relative of course but for choice of goods (on Western Foods) it was on a par with most Supermarkets down here. Damned upset now I didn't find the Rubber Dinghy section though
