Aye, he's hopeless. I've mentioned this one before but the one where he followed up a news report on the Bali bombing immediately with "And now to the sport, and Wayne Rooney set off 3 bombs of his own last night" after Rooney scored a hat trick in the CL was Alan Partridge-tastic.

I remember studying that at University as part of my economics course on Game Theory.

Oh, I've got avatars disabled. Cheers though.

Figure what out?

Are you serious?

You're McCartney by the way.

Fixed. Like Lennon and McCartney bouncing the ideas off one another.

Jealousy tbh. You know that's a hit. I'm working on a version of Janet Jackson's What Have You Done for Me Lately, with "for me lately" replaced by "O-ba-fe-mi" at the minute. Also "She Drives me Crazy" by the Fine Young Cannibals. "Drives Me Crazy" to become "O-ba-fe-mi".

Best thing is they take the piss out of us lot, going on about when Shearer gets made manager blah blah, no experience, blah blah, good players rarely make good managers etc. Give them Roy Keane and they all shit their kegs and forget all that stuff. Of the two I would say Shearer is the one more cut out for management. I didn't even realise Keane had any desires to enter football management at all because I don't think he's got the temperament for it. The MUTV interview where he slagged off half his team mates suggests that he might struggle........

I haven't seen the challenge yet admittedly, but I'd hate to see owt like that happen Jimbo. The Bowyer-Dyer thing was wrong and any punishment Thatcher receives should be handed down by the FA, not the law courts. Dangerous game starting stuff like that in football or any sport.

To the tune of Falco's Rock Me Amadeus: Obafemi Obafemi. O-ba-femi. Obafemi Obafemi. O-ba-femi. Obafemi Obafemi. Oh Oh O-ba-femi. Come on and rock me Obafemi. That is a winner any day of the week. I suggest the Rock Me Amadeus chant every time we get someone with 4 syllables in their name in.

A lot of the English refs these days just can't keep up with play. It's ridiculous to expect some flabby knacker (Poll, Halsey) to be able to cover the ground AND be alert enough to make the decisions that they need to. We should have a cull and bring in a new regime of superfit, slim referees who aren't carting two stone of extra weight around with their cards and whistle.

Congratulations to father and child. Very nice results.

Karl Pilkington will be all over this.

Jimmy and Timmy could possibly be excluded as humans dressed up as aliens. Jimmy and Timmy don't sound like alien names.

I remember that one in the Viz where they all went tearing round to Grandpa's house cos they thought he was having a fight, only to get there and discover him having a shite.

Took me ages as a kid to work out what ken meant. It just didn't make any sense. I also remember reading the "Oor Wullie, your Wullie, a'body's Wullie" thing out loud once and my sister going "Shhhh, that's rude!", thinking the last one meant "a body's Willie". Dozy bint.

Aye, Roeder's said that if he wants the no. 9, he can have it. He's gonna offer it to him and see what he says. Glad to see it's coming to a conclusion anyway - they need to turn their attention to the other signings fairly sharpish. The one and only good thing about doing all your business in the last week of the window is that you have a flurry of excitement.

Seeing as someone always wins, wouldn't the latter lot be just gambling like Lotto players, gobshite? And unfortunately to outlaw these shows would mean a change in the corporate paradigm which will probably not happen without bloodshed. 184054[/snapback] It's very different to buying a lottery ticket.

I wouldn't even know who Narinder was! Your "I don't watch reality TV" mask is slipping.

KCG got pwnt.

Dowling - is he the nuffter off Big Brother? Is that what his life consists of these days, presenting on these quiz shows? I'd say something should be done about these shows tbh - either you're too stupid to realise what they're doing, in which case you need protecting, or you realise what they're doing, but still think you could end up with the right answer. I'd say the latter want shooting rather than protecting though.

I quite like Brazil, but he doesn't half talk a lot of shit. When I say I like him, I just think it's quality the way he lives the life of Reilly, constantly leeching at big sporting events, not turning into work if he's had a bit too much to drink and that. His craic can be funny at times too, although he takes some weird stances on a lot of things and is as tactless as it gets.

According to the Guardian it's not signed and sealed yet, and Keane may have been put off by the fact it's all gone public. The sensible thing to do would have been for Quinn to stay in place as manager until he had it sewn up and then just call a press conference, and announce he was going and have Keane step through the curtains to gasps of amazement from the massed ranks of pressmen...................ok, maybe the bloke from the Sunderland Echo and a spotty kid from A Love Supreme. They were due to have a clandestine meeting in Ireland this week, but there's no chance of that now that it's all out in the open.

He's not cheap, but Iaquinta = goals goals goals! You'll find loads on the football games forum we've got on here somewhere. Have a look at the index.
