TheSufferingVilla

Collymore does talk a lot of bollocks but it is great to have him talking about the Villa on national radio in prime time. Keeps the spotlight on the club.

Good thing there's no women within punching distance of Collymore right now.

Just accidentally walked onto the set of a Sarah Jessica Parker movie. Walking out the front door of my office to get a sandwich and there she was: Had a rather irate production assistant have a go at me, I don't think he was prepared for me calling him a word removed in a loud Irish brogue. Not sure horse face and the rest of the crew was too impressed by my language either.

It's true. Since Bent joined the Premiership he's scored 81 goals and Rooney & Drogba have 82. Anyone know how many of those Bent goals have come from the penalty spot?

itunes what an utter word removed of a piece of software, what bunch of steaming clearings in the woods designed this **** thing!!!!

I believe I've had the pleasure of meeting the gentleman back in Columbus Ohio, more than likely he is being passed around as currency in a Panama prison.

- Word of warning it'll be fecking freezing over here and a lot of the off beat things require hypothermia at this time of year. Best parts of the city to explore are the neighborhoods: East Village, West Village, Chinatown, Tribecca, Upper West Side, Upper Eastside, Hells Kitchen, Gramarcy, Washington Heights, Harlem, El Bario, Downtown, Midtown. On your wanders you'll find loads of fun stuff to see and do. Head to the batting cages and driving range at Chelsea piers. Take the cable car to Roosevelt Island (if it's fixed), Statan Island ferry with cheap beer onboard, bounce over to Hoboken on the Path take in the view and visit the local footy shop run by a Villa fan. Eat street meat using http://midtownlunch.com as your guide (a site also run by a Villa fan). Visit Eataly on 23rd and 5th/Broadway for an intense food porn session. For the best BBQ of your life venture up to http://www.dinosaurbarbque.com/ in Harlem, from there you can fight back at the food coma with a stroll down the water, over to Columbia Uni or up to Fort Tryon Park and The Cloisters museum. Not to mention if there's a game on over to Legends on 33rd street and 5th to watch the Villa with me and the boys. - The Knicks are reasonably decent this year so I imagine ticket demand has gone up, best spot for getting tickets imo is Stubhub.com but I doubt the game against Atlanta will be a sell out. - Yes, you will be shot but it will be a great story to tell the kids if you survive. Nah, to be honest West Queens is grand the whole area is undergoing heavy gentrification so you'll be more likely to see people walking around with a rat dog in one hand and a latte in the other than somebody with a boombox. Totally, Coney Island is brilliant however I've never ventured down there in the dead of winter so I'm not sure how much of it will be open.

He must go. Some relationships click into place, some crash in flames. Houllier, I think he's a smart guy, I think he's a decent manager, I think he has failed to connect with the players and the fans and I think we need to get rid of him now. Two games Sheffield UTD followed by the shit. If we lose either and Houllier isn't sacked then Paul Falkner should be sacked along with him, if this doesn't happen then Lerner has lost the plot and his ability to run the club comes under serious question.

After 8 years in glass bottle America I have determined that cheap beer is better from a Can. Obviously from tap to glass is best but as far as drinking from the fridge cans are the way to go.

Messi, class of his own. On the big occassions Messi steps up to the plate whilst Ronaldo drags down those around him.

:shock: Do you even know what it's about?

Maybe they'd be better off watching golf.

Grow up would ya? Chelsea in Stamford bridge who had stopped their rot with a win on Wednesday and were desperate to keep it going against us who had lost any semblance of confidence. W#hat's more they were gifted a lead with the penno. If you keep reading and writing your own script your brain will eventually turn to mush if it hasn't already.

MY GOD!

Paul Falkner.

Warnock MOTM for Spuds utterly shit performance he spends more time out of position than he does in position. Somewhat happy my flight was cancelled.

Bollocks, how much will a taxi to VP from New Street set me back? Paid something like 40 pounds to get from the stadium to the airport after the Arsenal match 2 years back cost more than my flights from Dublin did.

Um ok, walking to New Street from VP on a nice sunny Spring morning would be lovely but in the freezing cold of winter I'd probably lose a testicle to frostbite en-route. Back to my earlier question, will there be regular train service? If not what are my other options bus wise?

Heading over for the Spuds game on the 26th, will trains be running from the city centre to Witton/Aston? I always seem to get stuck at the station for an hour in the cold after every game are buses a better way to get back to the city?

good lord who would want to visit New York and spend their time in the Bronx, Brooklyn, Queens or Staten Island? That would be like visiting London and staying in Milton Keynes. Aside I fully agree with the Midtown statement, you could not pick a more horrible location. New York City is all about the neighborhoods Upper East Side, Lower East Side, Upper West Side, Greenwich Village, Soho, Noho, Tribecca, Chelsea, East Village, Gramarcy that's where you need to focus your attention. Unless you would rather spend your time surrounded by fat midwestern kids in TGI Friday's followed by $7 glasses of Beer in dingy Midtown Irish pubs. My overall top choice to stay is the Upper West side, excellent access to the Subway, Central Park and Museums also the bars/eateries up there are great. Hotels are nowhere near as abundant as Midtown but the standard is reasonably good. One I can recommend: Lucerne

So damn excited, I can barely contain myself. Regardless of direction I'm sure Bethesda will produce a masterpiece for all but to satisfy the nerd in me and most other TES fans I'd love to see the following: 1. None of this gradual leveling crap, from the get go I want to be a weakling who ventures into a random dungeon and gets spanked simply cause the enemies inside are tough bastards with deadly gear as opposed to a couple of rats or crabs and damnit if I do get lucky and take them down I should be able to pilfer their stash of savage weapons and gear rather than waiting 20 hours into the game for such stuff to start becoming available. 2. Lets get away from this contained environment rubbish where every area has to load individually rather than gradually. The beauty of Morrowind/Daggerfall was simply being able to stroll in the front gate of a massive city and it's all there in front of you. Granted Morrowind had fog to mask the loading and Daggerfall had basic graphics and clipping but the limited urban environments of Oblivion in contrast to the vast open expanses of wilderness were a snap back to harsh reality and prevented the joys of levitation and wall climbing. 3. Fast travel, get rid please. I'd like to see more of a morrowind approach, caravans allowing travel from settlements, teleportation sevices between different mages guilds. Make it an effort with related expense to travel from one side of the map to another. 4. More effective use of lairs, It's great to build up your home and fill it with goodies but it would be better if there was more of a purpose to it. As soon as you kit out a place roaming gangs of thieves and bandits should want to target it and if they get in you should have to take it back by force or track down those who lifted your gear. Alternatively you should be able to set traps or hire thugs to stand guard.

Thought the finale was a disappointment, otherwise the season was good but paled in comparison to the past two.

Some of the stuff on that Geordie forum is brilliant this ripped me right up:

Can't see there being too much trouble at this World Cup since it'll be too bloody hot. The simple act of throwing a punch in 50 degree heat will result in spontaneous human combustion.

If Qatar can host the World Cup anyone can that's why I'm putting my considerable weight behind the 2030 Faroe Isles bid.
