  1. Times or Indy during the week, Observer or Torygraph at the weekend so get a good idea of what everyone is thinking. I loathe The Sun but it's by far the best for footie.

    Also a US podcast called 'Democracy Now' gives a decent unvarnished opinion of news across the pond. Pretty much the only homegrown left of centre view of America IMO.

  2. It will be very interesting to see what Curbs wants with Tevez and Mascherano.

    I actually feel sorry for the players; they have ruined their careers a fair bit by

    joining that shitty club.

    I've been waiting for Mascherano's name to come up. Granted he hasn't had a great time at Wet Sham but he is a top quality defensive midfielder and also has something to prove now in the Prem - namely, that he's not cack. Under MON's wing he could be a revelation at VP between Barry and Petrov and I'd love us to have a punt for him.

    Puts tin hat on and awaits incoming....

  3. A bit behind the times here mate..............some while back we had a "sick jokes" thread.

    It got deleted :cry: :cry: :cry:

    Nah Rob, these are sick jokes..

    :winkold:

    What do you call an anorexic with a yeast infection?

    Quarter-Pounder with cheese.

    What did the deaf, dumb, blind, downs syndrome, quadriplegic baby get for christmas?

    Cancer.

    Whats the difference between Neil Armstrong and Micheal Jackson?

    Neil Armstrong walked on the moon, Micheal Jackson fcuks kids.

    PC enough mate?

  4. 1)

    A spastic runs up to an ice cream man with his carer.

    'hello there, what can I do for you young man?' asks the ice cream man

    'arrrrrsecreeeeem' replies the window licker

    'Certainly, what type would you like?'

    'garumph!'

    'I'm sorry we don't have that flavour' he turns to the carer instead 'What flavour would he like?'

    'It doesn't matter' replies the carer 'The little spanner will only drop it'

    2)

    What's blue and **** old grannys?

    Me in my lucky blue jacket

    3) My current favourite:

    Did you hear about the thalydomide porn star ??

    He had an arm like a babies cock.

  5. Fortunately the Marines were so utterly shocked my brother probably got away with avoiding a good kicking as they were more concerned with wiping their mouths and shouting profanities etc.

    I was on a session with US Marines in Cyprus and after several dozen too many, things got a little out of hand. Long story short, one Marine vs one Squaddie racing down the promenade sans clothing, with a long length of burning toilet roll sticking out of the only available holder. National pride at stake, neither man was quitting first and both got very singed, although the funniest part was definitely their pained expressions as they jumped into the sea to cool off!

    Great guys and I wouldn't want anyone else on my flank. Semper Fi, Sir.

    Celer et Audax.

  6. Bent first choice. He'd get alot of service - when we have a right winger - and we know he can score even in a chod team like Charlton. Bent and Gabby upfront with Petrov at the head of a midfield diamond could be lethal and very fast.

    That said, I wouldn't turn my nose up at Defoe either and agree with most others that under MON's wing he could go far. I just think that Bent has the kind of work-ethic MON is looking for, Defoe can seem very lazy sometimes and we've already got one of them.

  7. Wouldn't mind Appiah if the hype is to be believed - I haven't seen enough of him. Only really saw his headless chicken performances in the world cup. I would have difficulty believing he is better than Essien though. Not many mids in the Premier are better than Essien.

    I thought he had a good WC and is definitely Essien standard but i'm not a big Fernabache watcher either! Think he would work very well next to Petrov's creativity in the middle. Didn't realise MON wasnt a fan of his though.

  8. Hmmm. Personally I'm fully behind RL for many of the reasons already posted on this thread. One I haven't noticed however is the link between AV06 and Mid-East oil money. RL is loaded because his old man was a very good businessman who made his cash fair and square. Arab royalty tend to be astronomically wealthy because they screw over their own people in a distgustingly ruthless fashion, making their money by keeping others in a state of abject poverty.

    This is not a racial but a morally motivated comment and TBH I'd rather be following my team in the fizzy pop league than knowing our good fortune was built on the misery of real peoples lives. It IS only a game after all.

    A bit like Abramovich don't you think!

    Not really T-T, he made his cash by being in right place at the right time and selling off large portions of State owned industry. No different from our own lurverly Tory robbers. It stinks but no-one actually gets hurt IMHO.

    I see where you are coming from but I think you are wrong. The citizens of Russia are paying dearly for the actions of the greedy and merciless oligarchs who colluded with corrupt Russian officials. There would be alot less poverty if the billions which were taken out of Russia by these people was given back and administered fairly.

    Fair enough T-T I can't argue with that, however that doesn't mean WE have to go down the same path. I'm no tree hugger but if you see the ME close up it's difficult not to have strong opinions about this. My moral compass says 'sod off AV06', if I'm wrong about who is behind Padfield I'll happily wind my neck in. Still, whatever happens at least we ARE going forward! :winkold:

  11. Ellis is the worst idiot so I wouldnt be surprised if he´s trying to win points from fans on this...and he´s stupid enough to think that he can bring either a player or a new manager in and then sit back and be king of the hill again. It has been done before and fans have bought it...

    Not this time, if he doesn't fall on his sword and sod off I predict things getting very nasty very quickly for old Herbert. I dont like militancy but judging by the comments on this and other sites, quite a few Villans do. Run Doug, run for your life.. :shock:

    BTW, greetings all, I've been content watching this site for about a year but have to post something before my head explodes!
