Well, you say "got".....

Unsavouries, what? people without season tickets who fancy going to the match. Your type are the reason why I gave my ticket up, prics who know fuck all talking shite behind you then look at you as if your daft when you dare raise your voice to back the team Are yee gann Wacky? Or is it the PTE/Turbinia again? I'm off to Scotland at 3am for the week, going to have to try and find somewhere up there with it on Setanta. P.S don't get in the PTE, Tub occasionally Heaton Buffs then. Everywhere in Scotland has Setanta, it's as much a part of their culture as Buckfast, and bigotry. Wacky will feel right at home then.

Maybe they've deliberately sold them separately to achieve a stippling effect. It's all about the TV cameras...

Exactly! Big Sam said he hasn't really had a pre-season and isn't ready to play just yet and Sam didn't wnat to throw him in early and have people criticise if he wasn't reaching the standards he'll be capable of at 100%. Compare that with a Souness/Roeder who would as you say chuck a player on the pitch as soon as they got to the ground! Fred: "I've just bought this lad. He's ready to play." GenericManager: "Much as I'd love to contradict you, yesSIR!"

Well, I met him once. "Know" would suggest a degree of intimacy that I assure you we don't have.

Christ, I've just realised that I actually know the old bloke who made the thread.

See, real fans would bankrupt themselves for the sake of a bunch of millionaires kicking a ball around a bit of grass.

Nah, see, "Mr. Hankey The Christmas Poo" is an example of a great pop song.

in any case I'm pleased that he's got a career in football. He used to be on Man U's books as a youth keeper, screwed up his knee or ankle or something and that was the end of that. Worked as a Window Salesman for a bit (shut the fuck up, right the fuck now, Alex) while he was getting his badges, then back into Football. really pleased for him,

That's being generous.

"Seen it before" doesn't even begin to cover it. There's some interesting variations on a theme of "football fan" over on famousmales, I'll say that much.

I know a lot of people have it in for the lad, and I don't think he's quite as good as his press (yet), but I don't see how this can do anything but help him along the way. Also: How good does that look? EDIT: And no Jenas. Shocking.

And I'd argue again that, for a pop career, genuine talent is necessary. For a one-album flash in the pan, not necessarily. Like Fumaca in a way. Hang on a minute.... His girlfriend loved Monument Mall.

Don't be dissing Whigfield, Martin. You're on thin ice there. Very thin ice. She's no Alex Party.

It's also better than most of what gets played before the match. Although obviously the resurrection of "United, United, United we stand, United we never shall fall", mid-90s-style, would trump even an Abbott/Whigfield/Black Lace megamix.

Endless Highway - The Music Of The Band Not normally into tribute albums, but this is lurvely.

Almost as if he knew which side the free kick was going but went the other way to let Beckham score, which of course would have grabbed all the sports headlines and gotten even more publicity for the MLS and let the public know that Beckham was actually doing something. Keepers do that for every single one of Gerrard's long-range shots.

1. Had egg and chips for tea 2. Played some football before 3. Bit sunburnt 4. Been abducted 5. On MSN

I made the rookie error of including Hamburg in mine. I really should know better.

Not bad, not bad at all.

Aye, mind it seems to roll around every week or two these days

Ah, see, that would make sense - I was going to say that I did London City - Zurich - Belgrade clutching a bottle of duty-free whisky with no problems (they came after the consumption). I've noticed that security staff at foreign airports are a lot sneerier about the ludicrous "clear plastic bag" restrictions too.

How do you mean "move"?
