Dont agree. The way Joanna upsold the order at the hotel from 3 months supply to six was excellent. Dog with a bone. It should be one of them though. that joana is way too agressive and pushy. might work on a contrived reality tv show but there's no way she'd do better than liz in a real life sales pitch Pushy sales people will win in real life the majority of the time. they really don't. people are more likely to buy of someone that charms them, not someone that tries to force something down your throat. True. I had some woman who was (only) fairly decent looking that grabbed my hand when walking through the shopping centre and tried to sell me some of their products. It was so see through & forceful it was embarrassing for her. She was keep giving it the "You're a good looking guy" & "you have amazing eyes". Both untrue . Then proceeded to give it the: "Why not? Its not that expensive. Look I'll throw product B in for 1/2 price" Cringe worthy.

I dont really have an affinity with any of la ligas players (eg I hate Rob Greens face and like it when he drops a clanger etc etc) so i'd prefer to watch the PL as its more personal to me. I can imagine the standard of football is probably better though (less people like Karl Henry clattering people anyway)

I agree with most of that. Football is supposed to be a form of entertainment. A release from our day-to-day lives. Watching a team not prepared to even attack (especially at home) is a joke.

Apparently La Liga isnt even a two team league. Its a two player league (Messi v Ronaldo).

Its the most open PL season ever. So what if the standard is crap. Its great viewing.

£40 i believe for the east stand. Great view (of stadium and pitch) but the atmosphere is a bit dull - as Stevie said.

Jesus Titty Fucking Christ. Who is that?

comics are excellent. there'll be a few times when youll say to yourself "i really hope they dont film that!". theres some devastating stuff happening to major characters later on. Is the TV series following the comics closely so far?

Yeah, at the cost of $20 lost in gambling per drink. Your talking out of your arse mate! Go on the 1c slot machines, you'd be hard pressed to get through an hour without winning your $1 back It was tongue in cheek. Chill out. P.S. 1c machines are just a waste of time.

Yeah, at the cost of $20 lost in gambling per drink. Not if you're good at it. Even if you're only sticking a few quarters in the slot machines they still provide drink, def a way of saving money. The slot machines are boring and you spend loads in very little time. I got addicted to the roulette machine. You dont win big but can break close to even if you spread your bets out.

I did the chopper flight a couple of months ago with landing (they give you some food and champers on the ground). Absolutely fantastic experience.

Good for a night. Rubbish for life.

I dont think Walcott has the brain to play through the middle. Interestingly enough he said that Wenger was grooming him for that position. Rooney will be in the team ahead of Walcott for years in that position anyway.

Great post Spongebob. Even if you dont fully rate him you humanize players. (sounds pansy, granted) I personally think he has the tools to succeed. Players like Jagielka didnt hit the big time until well after 24. People dont realise this. I thought Milner was good as well (not 20mil good..but a very good PL)

Never. Still is some sort of a god in the eyes of the Cologne supporters as far as I know. He wouldn't get away with such poor performamces on a regular basis over here. Still believe he's one of the brightest German talents in recent years, just one of those who didn't make the final step at a top club for whatever reason. Has got the ability of a Oezil/Muller imho If he has the ability then a move (to a different country) might be a good option.

True. Dirk Kuyt and Kezman were goal machines in that league.

28 my arse? closer to 38 !

Ajax have Suarez and that's it, the second string Real side SHOULD still be too strong and it's a decent price imo. See you've backed Roma, shocking price 5/6, they're not doing great in Serie A, lost 3-1 at home to Basle recently, and Bayern are like a wounded animal at the minute, they have more quality than Roma, I don't know if they'll win but 3/1 is a nice price for them to win in Rome. I watched a couple of Ajax games on ESPN this season and have been impressed with Suarez's striker partner Mounir El Hamdaou. Looks like a classy finisher as well.

Lukas Podolski I guess Isegrim could tell us more but I believe he has struggled the past couple of seasons. Worth a gamble imo. He is fairly young (25) and wouldn't completely break the bank.

He is only 24 so has plenty of time to develop.

Or he is just stupid!

great thread.

I've been a bit "meh" about this whole series but last nights finale was amazing ! I wish I had a voice like Robocops.
