  1. Oddily enough whenever Jonas has played left back we have kept a clean sheet - despite his ropey performances.

    Anyone know the real reason? He was quite a prolific poster so its a bit odd. Spending too much time on at work would be my guess.
  3. Yeah, ive got all 3 books. The missus forced me to read the 1st one and has bought me the 2nd/3rd. They are an easy read. Not mind blowing brilliant. A good holiday book.
  4. It was pretty dissapointing bearing in mind the hype. The plot is as weak as fuck and ALL the characters are thinly drawn caricatures. Some of the stuff in the forest is alright. The thousands of cuts and wipes per scene left me feeling that it was a very lame attempt at emotion/sensation overcoming any kind of critical thought. [/farenheit451]. I sense the books might be pretty good mind as there was glimpses of deeper machinations that were just glossed over. 6.2/10 The book is excellent. Half the stuff in the movie is skimmed over. For example, the MockingJays are actually a breed of mocking bird and mutant bird that the Capitol had created. This mutant bird was send to the districts to spy on the inhabitants. Loads of detail like that which I wouldnt have had a clue about. I am about to start the sequel.
  5. There cant be many better feelings than getting a standing ovation from 50,000 people.
  6. We actually played some nice stuff on occasions yesterday. I hate it when we revert to long ball.
  7. Aye, you can lip-read him as well: "I'll play right back. Get off the pitch" GOLD.
  8. I think he was trying to head it back to Krul but his awareness wasnt great. Im happy with him at fourth choice CB though. We need another one to compete with Taylor to play alongside Colo.
  9. I wouldnt rate it as class. You've probably just ruined it for everyone by referencing the other film though,
  10. He is just a League one player. Seems like a nice bloke and always puts in 100% for which im grateful but we need better. And I think Pardew knows this.
  11. He didnt have Colo next to him to be fair. Saying that Perch is a crap player. He'll never amount to a PL player & certainly not a PL centre back.
  12. Definitely his best game for us but he is still shite. Don't think he passed a ball over 8 yards.
  13. I rarely properly read a thread that he is involved in because its just same the old tripe over and over again.
  14. There is no way they had any intention of trying to win the game. They tried to keep it in the corner and failed.
  15. Im pretty sure he is not jealous over the city or Souness.
  16. They had a man over as well. Simpson was apparently injured and couldnt get back. We had 4 players at the end of the pitch. Suicidal play.
  17. I don't understand why some people are obsessed about arguing about the same thing.
  18. It is well known they are ungracious in defeat. Now its winning as well. Bobby Robson summed them up perfectly years ago when we did them at Highbury.
  19. Spot on. Krul showed great restraint in not knocking the prick out. Demba Ba is one of the most mild mannered players around and even he wanted to flatten him. Tells you all you need to know.
