  1. Just how many games do we have to win on Sky before mongs stop monging on about the "Sky curse". It seems like every time we win a game on Sky people ignore it. Then after a few good results we get one defeat and it's "ooooh the sky curse again". Some of our fans are a bunch of druids. There is no "first game of the season curse" either it's just a combination of tough away games and opponents being cagey and not wanting to loose. That and repeatedly awful pre-season preparation. I just hope he can still walk to the stadium after another couple of hours in the pub.
  2. Such a pointless waste. Drink driving is 100 stupider than anything I've seen on Jackass.
  3. I meant Fish.
  4. The problem is the players we've produced have often been too good for us to keep, mainly because we've underperformed so badly. I think if we'd gone up in '07 we could still have Bale, Jones and Baird. Surman and DMG left due to our second relegation. Dex, Best, Matt Mills and Cranie left mainly because they weren't getting games. We've still got Chamberlain and Matt Mills who look promising. Even Bart it could be argued, having joined as a 16 year old.
  5. We have to be realistic here, our 4th choice CM in League 1 isn't going to get you into the Premier League. If we want to compete with the likes of Wham, Brum, Foxes and Reading next season we're going to have to do a lot better than Gobern. Good luck to him though, hopefully he'll come up with Udders next season.
  6. It's good, but it's too complex for a flag. By the time it's been blown up to flag sized and waved around by thousands of fans, the crest in the background will be all distorted. Would be pretty good without the crest IMO.
  7. My favourite too. A couple of suggestions I'd add are: 1. I don't think the picture of Markus should be touching the top AND bottom of the flag. Looks a bit too 'zoomed in' for want of a better phrase. Like watching a TV when the kids have been f**king with the aspect ratio. Leave a bit of space just above his head. 2. I don't think it needs the badge. It just clutters the flag and doesn't nessy-celery add anything. I think Kracken is p*ssing in the right hedge with that one above.
  8. Can probably get to 14 home games next season, so will be getting my first ST. It wont make much sense financially, but it's well worth it knowing I've got a seat reserved next to my mate every match and not having to queue/book everything before a game. Will no doubt need it to have ANY hope of getting a ticket to krap nottarf.
  9. Apparently he turned down the Villa job first.
  10. Dry side or wet side?
  11. We played Bristol Rovers away in the first round of the FA CUP 2 years ago, the round before we played Naints away.
  12. Stamp collecting and dogging.
  13. I know "he only won because he had the best car" is a bit of a cliche, but that's all I've ever seen Massa do. In '08 he had the best car, and Raikkonen was ahead of him until about 7 races to go I think. I'm struggling to think of a truly great Massa drive. Button - Canada '11, Brazil '09 Hamilton - Britain '08, Japan '07 Alonso - Imola '05, Korea '10 Raikkonen - Japan '05, Belgium '09 Vettel - Monza '08, China '09 I'm sure you could go through about half a dosen examples for most of the top drivers in recent times, but I'm really struggling when it comes to Massa. A good driver and well worth a few victories, but not really a WDC quality driver. A bit like Coulthard.
  14. I never got how Massa ended up in a Ferrari at all really. Maybe its a South American marketing thing. He started his career being fairly average in a Sauber, then joined Ferrari and spent several years getting soundly beaten by Schumacher, Raikkonen and Alonso. The only time he has ever stood out was the second half of '08, and that's mainly because Ferrari had the best car and Kimi really didn't look interested.
  15. Well, it would seem West Ham have nailed their colours to the mast. Spend big and get back into the Prem at all costs. Bit of a financial facepalm, but a great player at this level.
  16. Bentley would be worth a shot, if only his wages weren't prohibitive. Think he's a victim of Bagpuss and his "want that one!" shopping campaign. Every transfer window another Modric, Kranjcar, Pienaar, Van Der Vaart or Palacios turns up.
  17. We're always gettin people in the lounge asking, "anyone been to XXXXXXX". What if we just had a forum where we had a thread for each country/city people have visited and people can add their questions and suggestions to that thread.
  18. Obviously not possible with today's technology, but give it 40 years and I can well believe they will be flying around. Incidentally the new Boeing 787 is due to enter service in the 3rd quarter of this year with ANA (Japan).
  19. Goats do not exist.
  20. If Button gets penalised for either incident, I'm going to give up and watch womens darts instead. EPIC win!!! Epic is an overused term, but that was epic. Last to winning it on the last lap... wow.
  21. Well, the Mclaren boys are out of it (Jenson still going in 10th), but on the up side Di Resta is 6th and Kobayashi is 2nd.
  22. DC holding a brolly 30 mins before kick off. This could be a good'n.
  23. If anyone makes a Skacel joke I will go round to their house and punch them.
  24. I can play many of Kajagoogoo's greatest hits on the vuvuzela, but since the OP ruled it out I'm going to have to say no.
