I think we'll stay up but it's going to go down to the last two or three games. Nacho Gonzalez will save us.

I'd teabag the lot of them. Wise first though.

It's because we fell in love with a bunch of cool black gangsters, and were then given some poor white-ass motherfuckers. I grew to love them all the same though. Especially Nicky. Ziggy was a bit of a knobhead and I can't believe that anyone would rank a character below him in the "Worst Character" awards. I still think the Barksdale stuff was good in Season 2 and set up a lot of the stuff that would be so great in Season 3. This thread has made me want to watch them all through again now.

I'll take a point but I'm not sure how long I can say that for. Win this though and I'm a lot more optimistic about staying up, especially with the impending arse-tickling from the Top 4 coming up. We could do with the three to cushion the eventual loss in points in those games.

Ugly fucker as well

The serial killer arc was a stretch at times maybe, but no more so than "Amsterdam" running undiscovered for so long or Omar being able to survive hails of bullets hiding behind a couch and jumping out 5th floor windows Omar becoming more and more battered and faced with increasingly insurmountable odds as the series went on was a personal highlight of mine. Agree about the rest of Season 5 like. McNulty's downfall was a bit too jarring from Season 4 (I understand the reasoning and the development but I thought it was too much of an extreme) and the serial killer arc is entirely different from Amsterdam; Amsterdam was privately run by Colvin and those in his trust circle so I don't think it's too far out of the realms of possibility that it lasted a while. Saying that, I can't remember off the top of my head how long Season 4 runs in time. If it's anything more than a few months then, yeah, belief stretching. Season 5 was Marlo's season anyway. And Snoop. Can't forget Snoop. Or Chris for that matter. His Angel of Death routine was brilliant.

Very sad that the picture wasn't captioned "UP AND ATOM!"

Oh joy.

Now, let's give the lass some credit here. It's an impressive haul.

Brother Mouzone is class, man! The Mexican stand-off in Season 3, constantly berating Lamar, that bow tie. Legend.

No Bassong? I am disgusted.

How could they have expected any other reaction?

Wow, that sounds absolutely not fun at all.

Score one for Italy, obviously.

I think that midfield (Geordie Lad's) is still pretty limited in all truth. Almost certainly better than having Nicky Butt and Duff in there but Nolan/Barton still isn't a partnership good enough to ultimately push on to top half/possible Europe even in a fairly poor PL. Not creative enough, will probably pick up a ton of suspensions and in the case of Gutierrez, we'd need far superior attacking options to really get the best out of him. The likes of Martins/Shola don't have the ability to read the game well enough or can't use their best assets properly (well, in the case of Martins. I'm not sure what Shola's best aspect is. Maybe making a nuisance of himself) to really see Gutierrez' best stuff come out in the last third. Having said that, I'd certainly take that over having Butt, Geremi or Duff in it at this point

Stood behind Frank Bruno in a queue for a rollercoaster in Spain. He was bricking it.

Sebastian Bassong has no CTRL key on his keyboard because Sebastian Bassong is always in control

Thread abandoned until we hear more of asteroidblitz' story.

I'm not sure any manager has seen anything in Shola tbh. It's just the fact that we can't flog him coupled with their hands being forced through injuries etc. It's a case of "Well, who else is there? Shola will do". It's not like he'd be anywhere near the team if everyone was fully fit. That being said, a 3 year contract seems to hint that the current regime see something in him so fuck knows. He's probably got blackmail on someone.

Saw the singer from Maximo Park necking on with his, quite frankly, unattractive girlfriend on the Metro. You'd think being in a fairly popular indie band would get you better women but obviously not. Also chased Andreas Andersson into a bank. To get his autograph, I wasn't lynching him or owt. Mate of mine once called Keiron Dyer a cunt in The Cooperage and another mate broke Lee Cattermole's nose when they were at school together. An acquaintance also reckons he porked the lass from The Zutons many moons ago.

I take it you have never read a proper script... Indeed. Final Draft has absolutely essential features that a macro for Word doesn't have.

There was some choice words banded about from my mouth when he put that wide like. No idea how he managed it.

I'm now skint.

Never has one picture summed up the crowd aspect of modern football, pisstake or not.

Just horsing around tbh
