  1. No, he really didn't. I've seen players looked rusty, but in that home game against Barnsley he looked 5 yards off the pace. I admire the guy's spirit, but how many comebacks has he attempted now? He's 35. Hardly as if he's got a promising career ahead of him. If he isn't careful, he could serious f**k his knee up and be unable to walk properly for years.
  2. Most Cat Stevens fans probably haven't.
  3. Greedy wotsits.
  4. Just watched the race on iplayer. Pretty interesting overall, although I did think there were going to be more issues with tyre wear in the final stages, like there were in 2009. Great to see Hamilton on the podium and I can't help but feel Button would have been there two were it not for that penalty. It's harsh but fair, although that race pretty much underlined my contempt for Massa. He was nowhere compared to his team mate all weekend (again). Then the incident with Button. Instead of trying to get back ahead of him, his instinctive reaction is to let his teammate through so that Button get penalised. On a more possitive note. Great drives from Petrov and Perez. Real shame about the Saubers getting DQ'd there.
  5. I'd be more tempted to see what Bart can do given a proper run in the team before we go splashing £1m on another 'keeper. I think it all depends who stays and who leaves, but at least 1 defender, striker and 2 midfielders would be a good start.
  6. What, that 10 day purple patch in January?
  7. Top 5 Fonte Lallana Barnard (Can't believe nobody has mentioned him yet. We are so much more of a threat when he plays) Chamberlain Harding
  8. I tried doing the predictor, but it just doesn't work I'm too pessimistic. I started off with the best of intentions and got as far as The Dons game before coming over all paranoid. That's a draw, Orient away is a draw, so is Plymouth, we'll lose at Brighton. Meanwhile Udders and Posh will win all their remaining fixtures, even when they play each other. In reality I think we're definitely in the driving seat. The next two games against playoff contenders are critical. If we can win them, it will so much easier, what with Posh, Bompey and Udders all playing each other in a couple of games.
  9. They're only 5 points clear of Orient, who have a game in hand. They can't afford to drop too many points to anyone or they could find themselves out of the playoff spots completely.
  10. Posh 4 points ahead with a better GD. I'd quite like a Bompey victory in that one too.
  11. Bompey drop more points at home. That's all I'd have asked for today if I'm honnest. Now I'm a Notts County fan for the next 26 hours.
  12. Qualifying: 1. Vettel 2. Hammy 3. Webber 4. Button 5. Alonso
  13. Our record this season is far better when Barnard is in the side. We've only lost once, at Walsall, when he has started under Adkins. He's more likely to find the net than Lambert at the moment too. Aside from that purple patch, I really haven't been convinced by Guly.
  14. Les Gets is pretty good IMO. A wide variety of runs and there are a couple of other resorts within a short bus ride. If you are complete beginners, I'd recommend Norway or Sweden where the snow is generally better and the slopes smaller and more gentle. Bulgaria is good for beginners too and is much cheaper than Scandinavia, but I've never been so I can't really comment on it. So in my life I've been to Geilo, Sol, Levi, Zel am Zee, Zermatt, Killington, Banff, Big White, Vail, Beaver Creek, Les Gets, Val D'Isere, Tignes, Cormayeur and Les Deux Alpes. If you want more info on any of them in particular, just ask. Only place I would NOT recommend is Zermatt. Lifts were an absolute pain in the tits.
  15. So by the time we play our next game, we will have 3 games in hand over Posh, Bompey, Udders and Dons. This is getting a bit silly.
  16. Overall I'd say Hamilton. He has the raw pace and overtaking nouse, where as Button is the more strategic and 'race smart'.
  17. I vote we get relelgated, then we can finish 3rd in League 2 and still get automatic promotion.
  18. You also need a porn number. This is your bank account number, followed by the sort code, followed by your credit card expiry date, followed by the 3 digit security code.
  19. Nothing like an assistant manager bigging up his nearest rivals to try and put more pressure on them. I'm fairly sure he doesn't mean it.
  20. I can. It was weird.
  21. FA Cup under Dudd and Gormless. That was the one where Rasiak scored a penalty on the 46th rebound.

    Strangely, I think if I were in the same situation it would be the other way around. If I lost a close friend or family member I'd be gutted. I think (and I hope to heck I never get the chance to find out) I'd probably feel quite hollow and numb at the loss of an unborn baby. I think it's because I wouldn't know them as a person. It would basically be like a person I'd never seen or met dying.
  23. Liking the 2% cut in corporation tax personally and the 1p a litre cut in fuel duty, even if that does only save me 30p a week.
  24. Actually, I'd have said it is best suited to the Muppet Show The thread, not the TV show.
