  1. I've got a few pence on the following horses today: 2:00 York - Doncaster Rover 8/1 2:15 Sandown - Arch Fire 7/1 2:30 York - Apache 12/1

    Turkish had a cameo in 'Blackalicious and the Pussy Cats 17'. He was the trolley collector at the supermarket.
  3. I'm going to sleep after the match later, get an early night in (or an obscenely late one depending on how you look at it). Duney boy, you underestimate me. I always wear my wristbands. Had one of them on for 4 years. I'm going to get dressed and take a walk round Highfield.
  4. I expect our squad to have players pushing for 130 CA. Lallana and Fonte have to be over 120 at least.
  5. I used to play golf. My short game was appalling, everything else was okay. I could drive a ball further than somebody at the club who was about to turn pro
  6. No Jamie, i'm not a gurner. And i've also not taken any drugs.
  7. I think I may be having a flashback...
  8. I've realised that the noise that I thought was coming from upstairs was actually some builders who are working on a neighbouring house unloading stuff from their van across the road. Could've saved me 10 minutes stalking around an empty student house in my pants with a baseball bat in my hand if I had realised that sooner.
  9. Tried to sleep, don't feel tired at all. Going home for a week tomorrow, i'll be all healed up before you know it.
  10. Still awake, hearing noises upstairs now. On further inspection, there's nothing up there except my washing. Lucky I bought that baseball bat a week ago (the neighbours were burgaled, I didn't buy it willy nilly).
  11. Unfortunately not, that would be a valid excuse. And fun.
  12. I've decided to combat lack of sleep by making a tuna sandwich and watching a Richard Pryor DVD. Best. Morning. Ever.
  13. What we didn't know before reading this thread is that Draino is on the tail-end of a massive bender. Comedowns are ugly.
  14. "Spurtage" - you are a poet Eric!
  15. So, it's 6:19am and I am still wide awake. This has happened for the past few nights now, not been able to get to sleep before 1am for about 2 years either. Help me?
  16. There's a city car park just up from the Joshua Tree pub by the Northam Estate, I think it costs a couple of quid.
  17. To help people?
  18. Millwall are bigger in size than Leeds though, their midfield is f*cking huge! Plus, the ref tomorrow is Andy D'Urso, meaning that he'll only see 10% of the fouls that are committed during the match... I can see one of our key players picking up an injury tomorrow.
  19. Millwall are a big team, and my only worry about tomorrow is the fact that they'll probably kick the sh!t out of us to try and stop us playing. We'll win if we can get past that aspect of their game.
  20. Wouldn't mind him going if we signed another left-footed centre-back. Until then, we should probably keep him, he's a useful back-up. We do need to sign another centre-back as good as Fonte though, that's probably our weak link atm. Seaborne and Martin are good as back-ups and Jaidi seems to be on his way out, so our priority should be a quick striker and another first-choice centre-back.
  21. I would be very happy to walk into a £30k job when I graduate, but it won't happen. I'll be happy as long as i'm breaking even each month tbh.
  22. Nice of you to get involved TDD.
  23. Nope, they lost 7-1 to Colchester on the first day of the 2009/10 season in L1. Last season they lost their first game 3-2 to Watford. Still, we've already started better than them!
  24. It's probably been done before, but what 5 tracks (not albums) and 1 book would you take? You get the Bible and the complete works of Shakespeare as standard. I would choose: Nick Drake - Cello Song http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_1YsFgDaEeo Radiohead - High and Dry [video=youtube;GKkr29EGc-Y] Otis Redding - Dock of the Bay http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8nA18g_PwG0 Blur - This Is A Low http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=otzdBww47XQ The Divine Comedy - A Lady of a Certain Age As for the book, I would probably choose Trainspotting by Irvine Welsh. I've read it countless times, but I never grow tired of it. Fantastic book.
  25. With the lack of information coming out of the club, there's only going to be hearsay around concerning our financial situation. Wouldn't be surprised if we were in debt at the moment, although £20m is a rather laughable figure considering our debts were cleared when ML bought the club this time 2 years ago. Racking up £20m in debt in 2 seasons would be very difficult indeed for a club that spent 2 years in League One, especially considering we've spent... Transfers 2009-Present (Prices estimated in some cases) 2009-10 (£3.35m) Murty - Free Jaidi - Free Harding - Free Lambert - £1.2m Hammond - £400k Fonte - £1.2m Seaborne - £275k Otsemobor - Free Barnard - £125k Puncheon - £150k 2010-11 (£1.3m) Richardson - £200k Dickson - £130k Butterfield - Free Guly - £600k Chaplow - £80k Forte - £100k Stephens - £200k 2011-12 (£4.05m) De Ridder - £1.5m Cork - £750k Fox - £1.8m I tot that up to around £8.7m, which is covered by Oxo's transfer by a long way. Each seasons' spending would be mostly covered by ST sales, TV money and investment from ML as well, so I can't see much debt being racked up through there. Are we still paying the mortgage on SMS, or was that cleared by ML as well? It's easy to speculate when there's no cold, hard facts circulating around about our situation financially.
