  1. Difference was, Rosberg wasn't defending, Hamilton was in front. It wasn't Rosberg's line to push wide from. Think he was more unlucky against Verstappen today, was borderline, probably shouldn't have been penalised. His move against Hamilton probably worked against him there, put the stewards into the mindset that he might have done it deliberately again.
  2. Quite funny that despite supposedly being cash rich now, Everton are still, well, Everton. Likely that they'll improve eventually this window, but so far... Koeman has be wondering if he made the right choice.
  3. Almost felt like Rosberg was giving up on his title chances today with that drive. Never even looked like challenging for the race after Hamilton took the first corner. Losing that big a lead in the Championship that quickly will take some mental strength to come back from, and I don't think Rosberg has it. He may well end up in the conversation for best drivers to never win the title.

  5. Ah fair enough, was hearing that second hand.
  6. I think they actually lost the whole forum, including all the old content, with everyone having to sign up again.

  8. Pfft, whether or not I exist doesn't really matter, it's real enough to me.
  9. Most scientists, when asked whether God exists, will answer "I don't know", and I'm a scientist at heart. There's a wonderful line between science and religion, where the difficult questions are asked. I don't believe that any human interpretation of God, told and retold over thousands of years, has much chance of being accurate, especially when I've seen those stories change just in my lifetime, and new religions invented. At the same time, I exist now, there's something different about this brain of mine and these eyes of mine that mean I'm looking out from them. A point in the timeline of this universe where I went from not existing to existing. That means that before I was born, there was some quirk, some aspect of this universe that meant it was possible for me to start existing. How that quirk got there, whether it's always been there, whether it will always be there, those are the questions that Science can't answer, and may never be able to.
  10. Awesome news
  11. http://translate.google.co.uk/translate?hl=en&sl=pt&u=http://www.maisfutebol.iol.pt/selecao/selecao-nacional/camara-de-penafiel-quer-atribuir-medalha-de-ouro-da-cidade-a-jose-fonte&prev=search Looks like there's a decent chance he'll be given the equivalent of the keys to his home city.
  12. If he has a good work ethic then Pochettino has a decent chance of getting the best out of him. Does still seem a bit overpriced though.
  13. Really looking forward to seeing what he can do in a Saints shirt We'll have spent some of that on new contracts for existing players.
  14. You did see all the moths at the final last night right?

  16. Might be better to go for Epicaricacy instead as we're leaving the EU.

  18. Don't blame him for going or the club for letting him go for that sort of money.
  19. This was actually a lot easier to check than I was expecting, Football League Trophy started in 83/84, so the eight winning squads in the Euros to check since then. Vast majority of those players have never played in England, and out of those that have, only Traianos Dellas of Greece has played below the Top Flight, other than Fonte. Took about 15 minutes So, yes, he's the first player to win that particular double.
  20. http://www.bayernforum.com/transfers-f1/pierre-hojbjerg-t10345-540.html General consensus that it's a pretty good deal for all parties from their view.
  21. Gets my vote as well, but 'tis up to Steve and Baj, not us cat herders.

    From League One, with us all the way to captaining us to our best Prem Finish and becoming European Champion with his country, getting into that team purely because of his efforts with Saints? Gets my vote.
