  1. When you compare Pearce's decision to exclude Beckham from the Olympic squad, seems to me that "coward" is the perfect word to use. Rooney shouldnt have even been in the squad for Euro 2012, to be fair, but Hodgson bottled that too. We could have had a much more effective striker on from the get-go in the first game, sharpening up for that Italy game. The only mittigating circumstance I will concede in Rooney's defence is that Hodgson's tactics and formation against Italy hardly offered Rooney much opportunity to do anything, but then he didnt look fanastically enthusiastic and energetic anyway.
  2. Beckham has thrown the toys out of his pram.... http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/sport/football/4404846/David-Beckham-bust-up-in-LA-Galaxy-3-4-San-Jose-Earthquakes.html
  3. Blocked in my workplace - is this the Wetten Das? clip showing the diggers scaling a white steel tower ?
  4. That old hack again ? Yes, I did a very quick estimate in my head without going through the table and various scenarios first for 30mins, for the benefit of the ongoing discussion and was out by 1 point. So f**king shoot me. The OP asked which promotion was our favourite, I'd like some bell-end who has attacked me on here to explain why me answering the question and expressing my preference has turned into yet another b*tch-fest.
  5. Yawn, tedious ignorant cliche alert...
  6. All of last years kit has been pulled from the online store.
  7. hehehehehe. That's f**king awful. Anyhoo, if it isnt last seasons away kit (and it seems a perfectly sensible approach if the Umbro High Command bunkered up in their sporting equivalent of the Wolfsschanze wont let little lowly scum like SFC have a new 3rd kit in the most bizarre interpretation of the supplier/customer relationship ever), I still think if a 3rd kit is really necessary it will be Swedens kit re-badged. Its only for a couple of games, and its a cheap solution. If this the case, I doubt it will go on sale to the public.
  8. http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/sport/football/euro2012/4404991/Roy-Hodgson-branded-a-coward-by-Matthew-Le-Tissier.html Well, I agree with him, but there are loads of comments from uppity Manyoo fans and skate trolls on there...
  9. Iniesta has to be the most over-rated player on the planet at the moment. He falls over like a toddler everytime he is challenged. F**king weird looking gimp.
  10. I am laughing at you - that you even bothered trying to dredge something up. Dont you get it ? I am not denying or hiding from or embarassed by any of it.
  11. Why has there been a 50% clearance sale on it then ?
  12. Who is the f**king customer in the Club/Kit supplier relationship, FFS ? I keep hearing about what Umbro do and dont do. I am so glad our relationship with them is coming to an end.
  13. the Daniel Craig one.
  14. Watched "Casino Royale" again last night on DVD. Sorry if it sounds twee, but the more I see it the more I think its a classic James Bond film.
  15. My last wobble was at the time of the Walsall draw, I seem to recall. Remember that we had to play serious catch-up on Huddersfield. I did argue about then about consolidating and going for the play-offs, I am not ashamed to admit. Last season we were never out of the top 2, led for most of it, and not-exactly-fell-apart but not-exactly-redoubled-our-resolve to get over the finish line.
  16. Was sorely tempted by a Nissan Quashqai +2 for a while, but the 6th and 7th seats are only for kids and no good for adults.
  17. Just replied to Bearsy. 14 infractions, 12 expired, currently on 4 points.
  18. From 1st div to Championship, without a doubt. We stormed it. We steamed it. Our last 15 games were the dogs b*ll*cks. We came within 3 points of going past Brighton, and beat them at Withdean. We picked up the momentum that carried us through to Xmas 2011 and probably ensured our promotion this season too. And we had a decent home kit. Championship to PL was a stagger over the line, and we all know it.
  19. http://www.sportsdirect.com/adidas-team-gb-football-home-shirt-mens-387068 I cant tell - is this baggy or ghey stretchy ???
  20. With blue pinstripes ? We're just poncing cheaply off the Swedes, probably.
  21. Think I'll give it a miss....
  22. Well done Jackie. Anyone know what the Team GB kit looks like ? Seeing as I have money reserved for a Saints top burning a hole in my pocket..
