  1. He's very skillful though. This is one player imo where Wenger missed the boat. Pace probably was the issue. If Milner works on his crossing, he's every bit as good as Bentley. Can't agree with you there like. I think Bentley's different class. IMO, with the exception of pace* and crossing ability, Milner has a lot going for him. The major difference between him and Bentley is delivery, from open play and set-pieces. If Milner nails that, we'd all love him. His work ethic is second to none, too. *I also don't think he's all that slow. Aye and Shola has got a lot going for him apart from a first touch and the ability to score goals, apart from that he's a world class striker. Pace and crossing ability are the two most important attributes a winger can have, Milner is lacking in both departments. No, but apart from that.
  2. Battenberg is close to where I come from, never knew about the cake stuff. Originally the Battenbergs died out in the 14th century, the name was only reused early in the 19th century. Anyway, I support Poland... ... just in their group game against Austria. I'm beginning to think this is going to be more fun without England there.
  3. I'd go with Vista, its much better now than when it first came out, more titles are compatible and programmed with Vista in mind, before long you won't be able to avoid Vista. What about downloads and streaming is it a menace? I use bitTorrent and streaming on my Vista machine. Ok. Thanks.

  5. I am Kurdish mate Oh. I have a mate as well who's Kurdish. Useless fact for you there. What part of Kurdistan is he from, I am from the Iraq part (Don't worry Stevie am not a bomber) You're not Pakistani though. I think the term "Asian" is more racist than "paki", I really do. At least if you say Paki, you're referring to someone from Pakistan. Asian is just putting everyone in the same basket, when there are so many diversities in that part of the world. Like Kurdish people look more like Turks than Indians, would we call Turks "Asian"? I used to get in fights all the time at school until year 9, people calling me paki etc etc, now personally I don't find it offensive at all because the people that say it obviously haven't got a clue what they are talking about because I am not from Pakistan. People do say that word in a racist way and to hurt others feeling, doesn't bother me though. For the Turkey bit, it just depends what part of it your talking about, the Kurdish part is in Asia but apart from that in my opinion the rest is in Europe. I hate Turks btw My mate also hates the Turks btw. Its a Kurdish thing man So I've been told. Kurds might be sitting on a load of oil and the Turks would actually fancy stealing some of it. With U.S. bases in Turkey as well as Eeyerak it would be a tricky one. The Kurds iirc fought Saddams lot for many a year. Good fighting and proud people like the Afghans.
  6. I am Kurdish mate Good freedom loving people the Kurds.
  7. "Even more irksome was the wariness with which the British regarded Philip when he first came on the royal scene. A poll taken in 1947 revealed widespread dismay at Philip's alien origins. Never mind that he was, like Elizabeth, a great-great-grandchild of Queen Victoria. To the public he became 'Phil the Greek', an opprobrious nickname which still surfaces from time to time today. It was inaccurate. Philip was born a Prince of Greece, but his ancestry was actually Danish and German. The nickname was none the less wounding for that, though." He line is oringinally from the House of Hannover crossed with the Danes. The Danes had the practice of exporting Royalty and Royal lines to countries where the natives didn't really trust each other to run things. Our Royals are mostly Krauts as well Stevie if you were wondering. Saxe Coburg Goethe till the name changes. Aye but if a Paki is born in England, are they Pakistani or English? They're English of course they are, so Phil remains Greek till the day he dies. For fuck sake, you will never meet a less racist person than me, fuckin 2008 eh? Bound by constrictions and political red tape. I love all colours and creeds as long as they speak English and don't bomb us. Parky, I support Greece for this tournament. Noted. But can't say I'm not a little disappointed.

They're English of course they are, so Phil remains Greek till the day he dies. Citizenship issues aren't a good counterpoint to Royal bloodlines. Phil's bloodline is all important rather than where he was born. iirc the whole Greek royal family are from Denmark/House of Hannover/ Original Hapsburg line (old Europe and the Viennese). Not a drop of Greek blood in them probably, perhaps the odd chambermaid. The Dutch Royals and the old Russian royals are further examples. You need to support Holland or Germany if you want to remain consistent Stevie mate.
  9. Needs to get a haricut and some Grecian 10000.
  10. Managed to keep most of the gold in Euro during the banking wars too.
  11. Prince Phillip is Danish. Born in Corfu though. He's Greek "Phil The Greek" He's got the Danish Royal family and the Battenburgs (who became the Mountbattens) in his family tree iirc. Correct see above. Also with Royalty the lineage is far more indicative rather than where they happen to be born etc...see 'The White Russians' etc...

  13. Prince Phillip is Danish.
  14. I used to be like that. Until you married a Kraut you mean? She supports Eng when we're playing so it's only fair like.
  15. Anelka? As a desperate January stop gap for a club as wealthy as Chelski? Maybe. For most anyone else? Nope. 39 in 89 at a struggling Man City 23 in 58 at Bolton Both average sides. And nearly the magic 1 in 2. One of the best strikers in the world? Easily. 51 in 125 at Man City. 23 in 61 at Bolton. Only just better than Shearer in his last season, and worse than Shearer in his 2nd from last season. He's a good player, without a doubt, but more around the £10M mark. his goal record is good enough if he stays for the duration of his contract. i think the bigger problem with anelka is he's likely to want to fuck off to another club after a season or two. Most players these days tbf.

  17. Germany committed to their new attacking philosophy...So all good. Looking forward to the Portugese crying etc...
  18. Out as usual in Q-F anyway. Al pomp and no heart.
