Madonna being investigated by the secret service apparently made some sort of threat about the White House in her speech the total fucking knacker.

He is really fucking grim mind, but aye I suppose to some it's worth it. He regularly left her by herself and walked off ahead during the inauguration, there's a picture of him up a bunch of stairs being greeted by Barack and Michelle Obama and she is walking round the back of the car they'd just got out of trying to catch up . As you say though she probably lets all that slide because she lives a luxurious life in exchange for it.

Generic small time football blather thread 2015/16
Howay replied to The Fish's topic in Newcastle Forum
I remember him actually sitting up a bit then lying back down, his hand was sort of on his forehead and he looked in shock. They had an oxygen tank out there and were holding his head stable but he kept moving his arm and kept bending his knee (which they kept carefully straightening out as they were trying to get him on the stretcher). I'm not sure if he was ever fully out or just dazed, it looked awful either way and I hope what Hull are putting up is right and he's stable. The thing I found odd was while they were trying to get him on the stretcher (he was sort of about the pen spot area) there were about 4 Hull players knocking the ball about right at the edge of the area and one of them was stood directly in front of the medical staff, I know they are professionals and aren't likely to misplace a simple pass but I remember thinking at the time surely they could do that off to the side a bit. -

Fair one, like I say I didn't see it. I think the thing is anytime you go to make contact with the head you're putting the decision in the hands of the referee, I always hate to see it because it's just ridiculously stupid on the players behalf. -

I was watching that game and it looked bad at the time, it took them a good 10 minutes to move him from the pitch and the look on his face before the medical staff got to him was awful to watch. -
Watched 2 films last night. Fantastic beasts and where to find them was the first, I really liked it tbh, while it was pretty predictable it was interesting throughout. Then watched Masterminds, it's always hard to go into a movie you think is going to be a bit shit after watching a high budget one like Fantastic beasts. Despite that it was ok, I guess mainly as I didn't have high hopes for it, I thought Jason Sudeikis had a few funny moments and Galifianakis was funny enough throughout to make it enjoyable enough. Dan Bilzerian was randomly in it for 2 minutes if anyone knows who he is. We watched Galifianakis' other recent film the other week, Keeping up with the Joneses, and both movies were probably on par with each other tbh.

Agreed, it's really hard to keep a squad because of that as they all just start moaning their tits off unless they get 15-20 games a season (and even then they'll be moaning if there are big gaps between the games). I've just been ignoring the messages about Ponchettino wanting to discuss the loan as it's after every fixture I have that he doesn't feature, but he's at 50% match fitness and the medical staff are saying don't play him for more than 45 mins, it'll probably end up with him being recalled unless he becomes fit enough to start soon. The worst is the low bids accepted by other computer teams as well, I saw Isco go for about 14m in season 2 to PSG, I've tried bidding for him in games before and they were demanding in excess of 40m despite him never featuring. That inconsistency is a pain, it also makes the game unfair and I end up having to buy up and comers rather than being able to assemble a team of present star names, another example on one of my games was Hazard to Man Utd in season 3, he went for about 28m ffs.

Did they get into each other's faces and happen to touch heads? Or was there a deliberate forward movement by one of the players to hit the opponent with the head? I've not seen the incident but that is the sort of stuff refs look at, I know it is handbags etc but by the letter of the law a deliberate, forceful movement of your head to make contact will generally end in a sending off. -
Seeing a lot of posts on my Facebook on about people attacking Barron and how absurd it is to insult a child when you don't like their father, while I absolutely agree with it there has been an element that have referred to Malia and Sasha Obama using the n word for the last 8 years, attacked Malia for partying at Harvard etc. Of course it goes both ways and I'm sure some of those that have shown outrage about the abuse of the Obama children are happy abusing Barron, but it's just staggering that people can make these type of posts (which were aimed at 'liberals') after 8 years of probably the most vicious and vile abuse ever thrown at not only a president but a presidents children.

"McCormack’s latest excuse was that he was unable to make training as the electric gates on his property would not open." That's fucking disgraceful mind. -

Pep will be going mental after this, Sterling through on goal and just as he's about to shoot Kyle Walker shoves him and puts him off, the ref doesn't give a pen and then Spurs go up the pitch and equalize . -
Newcastle United v Birmingham City - FA Cup 3rd Round Replay
Howay replied to wykikitoon's topic in Newcastle Forum
I just found out he's related to me (albeit not closely) so I fully retract my bit about him making a bad decision, he was class. -
Sounds good, it's mint having ample money sometimes on it. I started a new game with Newcastle, I loaned Kyle Walker-Peters from Spurs and he has started nearly every game for me until he broke his shoulder, after missing about a month he just returned from injury so I made him available for the U-23's to get match fit and didn't put him in the squad against Barnsley. After the match I have Pochettino moaning at me saying Walker-Peters isn't playing enough there's no option for me to say he has been injured for a month you daft bastard.

Aye Murphy looks good at this level, he did show a surprising turn of pace at one point. Good performance by the side, think it shows just how vital the first goal is for us as it forces the opposition to open up and we often end up giving them a hiding. Yedlin and Ritchie were really impressive and could be forming a good partnership.
-
He'll probably be listed on that physio room with a groin injury. Aye it's been a pretty fucking good season for us, Pardew sacked, Allardyce walking out on the mackems, losing the England job, and then possibly getting relegated, the mackems hopefully heading down, and us going up.

Oh aye no doubt, but I was just meaning this particular incident would have happened previously in all. I was once put in secondary holding and watched as a Latvian woman come out of one of the interview rooms crying holding a baby, her husband started yelling demanding an apology, one of the border security guys just got up and started screaming "this is not Latvia, you have no rights here, so sit down" that was 5 years ago, so they've always been dicks.

That would be fucking class, a first relegation for jabba would ruin him.

It's not but the border security have always been tough here, you're not going to get a great amount of change out of many border securities around the world if you're saying you are coming in to protest their leader what right do they really have to do so? They'd argue it's easier and safer to just not let them in than risk an attack, I know the threat from a group of 6 women was low but half the time these lot are looking for an excuse not to let people in and they gave them an easy one. I agree with you fwiw but I think this would have happened 4 years ago as well.

Cracking left footed cross by Ritchie there.

Them losing and Swansea getting a win makes a brilliant day for them, I hope they're enjoying us playing Rotherham.
-
Sammy on, hope he scores
-
Quality for the 3rd goal, Yedlin again showing why he needs to play over Vurnon as his pace is a real weapon and he's very willing to go on the overlap.
-
Nice goal that, probably game over there.
-
Agreed, Murphy's touch for a lot of the balls coming his way has been good and his flick on that put Perez through early on was class, Perez should have got that one on target tbh. Yeah I've never really got how Anita seems to be ahead of him, I'd get it if Anita was really solid defensively but from watching both I've seen nowt to say Anita is better with that side of the game.

Aye Firstrowsports has a working link.
