i'd put some money on him scoring at least once like, i can see him filling his boots against algeria

four keepers ffs

am i glad we went down? of course not. i was crushed. i don't think we're better off for it either.

Life is short enough why torture yourself? the wife, simple as. if i was a single man, i would smoke no doubt. she adopted a clever approach; if i smoke, sex is off the cards. That's a tricky one. How about smoke days and nookie days? there's still the endless grief to put up with on the smoke days. "you said you'd give up and you never do" "i don't want you to die of lung cancer" "your breath smells disgusting, don't kiss me" etc etc

Yeah this is my stance too. ditto, i've invested so much energy in it. i want to stop watching it, my wife is so sick of it and only watches it with me because i keep insisiting we will have wasted all those hours if we give up so close to the end. can't wait till it does finish mind so i can go back to putting all my tv viewing energy into mad men

i've been off the smokes since new year. apart from the odd lapse when the wife hasn't been around, i've done well. despite the fact that i'm over the physical cravings, i still get the mental cravings all the time. it's murder now the sun is out. i'd love nothig more this afternoon than hit the boozer, smoke endless tabs then spark a fattie up when i get home. reformed smokers - do the mental cravings ever go away?

harsh on him if he does get the boot. he did well there. did their board really expect them to go up this year?

if you're in london, it's all about the griffin. pounds in the pot....for those that know ;-)

better than yesterday. about to go to boxing class to let out some frustration on the pads

david milliband would do well. he's blair mark II dianne abbott has no chance. she's a patronising hypocrite. i think it's a shame john cruddas has declared himself out of the race. he's real labour; with him in charge there would be genuine opposition instead of two parties (three if you count the lib dems) fighting for the centre ground.

finnan would be good and would probably start ahead of simspon. 34 isn't too old

my mood is apprehensive. got my career appraisal later today and not looking forward to the usual painful negotiations. other than that, not too bad. sunshine always helps. a lazy two week holiday with the mrs somewhere warm would help my mood. only problem is that almost all of our holiday is being used up this year on weddings and stag/hen dos

we need to sign around 5 players with a bit of top flight nous about them if we want to avoid another relegation battle. there are question marks over whether our right back, all of our centre midfielders and all of our strikers can perform at the highest level. we don't have much depth out on the flanks either

they're fucking everywhere in london. more dangerous than cars these days given they don't stop at red lights.

the spain/portugal bid is looking more credible now

i watched it. it was boring. seems f1 is only interesting this year when it rains

i'm a sahf londoner, so my favourites here are a bit biased for 2 for 1 cocktails and good late night music, the funky munky, camberwell - for late night carnage, white horse, brixton - for a nice relaxing sunday session, the florence, herne hill - when i'm back home, the diamond, ponteland....it even has a late night bar these days called 'the rock' pre match, i'd go along with the bodega

i don't know wtf thsi thread is all about but it made me lol at work

i would like to see ranger go out on loan, but only if we can get three new strikers in with best and shola sold. carroll, lovenkrands and three new quality strikers would be the ideal scenario in reality that isn't going to happen. if, as expected, we fail to bring in at least two quality strikers, nile should not go on loan.

an mp at 25. she's going places. good work!

nevland was woeful like. he got caught offside all night. they were unlucky that zamora was obvioulsy not match fit. he might have made a difference...

Alternatively, don't boo a team that comes 5th in the premiership. i didn't do that

welcome. word of warning: don't criticise freddie shepherd in front of leazesmag and you'll do fine

the ft backed the tories in this election though slightly reluctantly. seemed they thought the were the best of a bad bunch http://www.ft.com/cms/s/0/bd4e693c-56df-11...144feab49a.html
