  1. Bigi came on at Den Haag at the weekend and looked confident and assured....didnt do much, just looked like he had a spark, demanding the ball etc. Hopefuly we'll put a few past Cardiff at the weekend too. Cabaye didnt appear at either game, not sure what that suggests...he came on at Braga, but hasnt even been on the bench since.
  2. See what you mean now, got to agree with NJS that someone having you in for an interview and maybe asking " and why aren't you on facebook Mr Xxxx?!" will more than likely receive short shrift from your good self, and me for that matter. Maybe its important to get a rounded view of of a candidate in the corporate/management world, but any kid with half a brain either makes their facebook profile complelely private so no fucker can see it anyway or doesnt have it, to avoid the likelyhood of the images of the Thomas Cook rep from Malia with her tits out being seen by the general public. In our own noble blue collar, "son of the soil" working enviroments though mate I wouldve thought that it would be irrelevent to any employer seeing photos you and Mrs Howman with the bairns at Tynemouth. But I'm not a recruiter, am sure Stevie can advise you better....if he's still in that game, and not become a professional twitter stalker. Wonder if he does that in work time?
  3. Naa...sounds fuckin fishy to me like. But as you say, its pretty small beer. If you get it checked out and theres nowt wrong with it then its a job for trading standards.
  4. As a contractor, no one's ever offered me anything via facebook. I've uploaded my CV to the websites of dozens of recruiters though, and they either phone or more usually nowadays email or text when theyre looking to exploit me offer me work. Am not on Twitter either, mostly because of some of the disturbing things I've read on it via these pages. Am sure its controllable, and it appears you can read it without contributing yourself, and no doubt it can do a lot of good, but because of TT I think its an even bigger haven for complete bell ends than facebook, and that, as am sure some of you will agree, is saying something
  5. Isnt a sport defined as something you have to get changed for?....so dressage and squash should both be in, but archery and shooting?.....same as darts, dwarf throwing and snooker etc.. Dressage is a throwback to the Victorian origins of the modern games, as is the "Modern Pentathlon" which was invented literally as a test for serving cavalry officers....horse riding, shooting,fencing, swimming and cross country...and they still fuckin do it haven't seen much of my favourite Grecco/Roman wrestling yet, which is a lot older than dressage, but more of a sport iyam
  6. looks like tennis elbow to me, which is a bit like housemaid's knee. hope that helps wheres the kung fu doctor when you need him?.....
  7. Guilty as charged I'm in two minds all the time when it comes to whats happening at NUFC. The policy they appear to have has been phenomanlly successful for a lot of clubs over the years, the two that stick out are Leazes' beloved Nottingham Forest under Clough and Taylor (not that he ever acknowleged it!) and Lyon in France. But there is another side of me that thinks we should be kicking on from last season and giving Lille what they want for Debuchy or splashing out on Luke de Jong. Thing is, we cant have it both ways, because one or two huge deals (like signing Michael Owen and Luque the same summer for daft money) blows all spending plans and budgets for practically the next decade out of the water. So if we fail to bring our targets in this summer there are those who will criticise and say Ashley's a tight bastard etc etc but that attitude really is wanting to have your financial cake and eating it.
  8. Ambition doesnt come in to it does it?...everyone seemed happy with what we've done in the last 18 months or so. No good heaping praise on Ashley for waiting for everything to fall into place i.e. player,availability,price etc etc or accepting daft money for Carroll and then complaining about lack of ambition on September 1. I certainly don't want to hear it anyway Tbh, as long as we get a good attacking full back in and let nobody leave I'll be happy enough. That really is the key to Pardew getting his seemingly preferred 433 working properly i.e. with the fullbacks getting forward to create the width a narrow 3 in midfield doesnt allow usually.
  9. Goldie Sayers and Phillips Odowu were both injured recently and didnt qualify for their finals this morning, both had a good cance of a medal, gold in Odowu's case. Add them to the monumental tactical fuck up that was the men's road race last weekend and our medal table couldve looked even better.
  10. This is what I had when faced with the same problem: Would you be seen dead on something like that?.....they were fast as fuck, cheap thrills, but you dont see many of them nowadays. Thats why I suggested a scooter, they seem to be a lot more common..
  11. away man he had a rest halfway round! how many medals have "gods own county" got now then?..
  12. I'd like to say before xmas this year is favourite but Nick Clegg hasnt got the balls to pull the plug, even though he'd like to.
  13. Wouldnt brag too much wykki, one of the brothers is now on stretcher attached to a saline drip, the soft yorky cunt
  14. The car with its own theme tune!
  15. Not much of a scooter scene in NI?.... youd look fuckin ace on one of these mate, admit it:
  16. so will all the others, so get a Vespa....are you allowed to drive anything up to 125cc on a full (car) driving licence still?...used to be the case...
  17. Get a Vespa, or speak to your parents.
  18. Can Leazes see all this attention he's getting on here?....i.e. he's just prevented from singing in, to continue addressing posters as "chum" and "an utter shambles of a man", both of which I will miss greatly, if not everything else that comes with his posts?.....
  19. Rowing is highly technical, thats why you can have huge fuckers like Pinsent who are all brute force rowing in the same boat as his Olympic gold winning collegue in the 4 in 2000 Tim Foster who was tiny by comparison but a brilliant "technical" rower with an extreamly efficient technique which more than made up for his lack of "power" compared with the aforementioned Pinsent, and also the others in the boat Redgrave and Cracknell.
  20. Michael Owen's old man was a player...cant remember who for so its pretty safe to say that that Micheal was better than his old man...its not known if his old man was an equine obsessed malingering cunt in the latter years of his career though...
  21. Craig Burley was almost certainly better than his dad. His uncle George on the other hand was a key player in Sir Bob's Ipswich Town side. Not sure of his father's occupation
  22. yeah cheers mate, sounds better than it did on the day strangely....cant imagine why.... When you've got 4 golds, is it easy to be magnamous when "the powers that be" dont let you try for a 5th?..... Chris Hoy ‏@chrishoy I know I said I was off twitter til after 2mro but that was PHENOMENAL by Jason Kenny. So happy and proud of him, well deserved mate. Class cyclist, class bloke.
  23. Mexican carpet fitter...underaly, underlay arreebaa!....sorry..I'll just get me coat.....
  24. "Republica Dominca" on Sanchez's vest.....maybe they like to show their emotions too
  25. Naa...just the athletics squad...or is that what you meant?... thread hijack: cant find a cd copy of Glasgow Green anywhere
