  1. Sadly not. Especially now I've left Excuses excuses!
  2. United getting Adidas will make them stop looking like United for a couple of seasons, like when Liverpool lost Carlsberg.
  3. I also think it's unfair on Liverpool, bloody hilarious though but unfair. Liverpool could justifiably say that they knew Suarez was volatile but after his last incident they had tailored his man management to get the best out of him whilst cutting out the controversy. They send him off to play with Uruguay who don't know how to handle him and he snaps again. If one of our players does something crazy and reckless whilst on international duty we would all be livid on here if the player was banned from Aston Villa matches, it is hypocritical to think it is justified to apply to Liverpool just because we all hate Liverpool. That tribalism is a lazy way of thinking. I think the big difference is that if an Aston Villa player bit someone during a world cup game, we'd be livid with him. If Benteke had never gotten injured, had finished the season with a flurry of goals and single handedly kept us comfortably mid table, then started the world cup in style before biting an opponent in his 3rd game and getting suspended for 4 months, i'd probably punch a hole in the wall. But not because I felt like Aston Villa were being unfairly treated or because it was bullshit that our most important player is getting suspended for Villa games despite us having nothing to do with his indiscretion. I'd be livid because the player is a **** moron and has hurt the club and his teammates with a moronic act. I'd be livid because this has probably hurt his future transfer value. I'd be livid because it might mean we don't achieve what we want to achieve next season.
  4. Yeah that Leeds kit is lovely. Macron have come a long way really. They are at the stage now where i'm expecting a decent effort from them in most cases.
  5. I don't know why people feel sorry for Liverpool here. Yes, they are getting punished for something one of their employees did while not working for them, but they own a player who the know is prone to a brainsnap. They know he's capable of this sort of thing but they keep him because he's such a good player. He's a constant gamble and they've lost this time.
  6. Haha, mine wasn't quite this moronic. We had some old mattresses as a ring floor and I probably jumped as far as this guy did, but I had my opponent and the table set up an appropriate distance away. Even then there was a sigh of relief when I landed it and didn't kill either myself or my mate
  7. I don't think anybody is saying he's Franco Baresi, but given our other centre half options, and the fact that a quality replacement isn't coming if we lose him, he may as well be.
  8. Yep, I said the same thing to my wife in relating it to Zidane's headbutt. It's a complete and total brain explosion. Do it in a Liverpool game and miss 8 games. Do it in a World Cup game and you might never play another one. It's just stunningly moronic. It's incredibly selfish as well, as Uruguay need him to have any chance of getting through.
  9. Unfortunately all my backyard wrestling was done on cameras with actual tape in them which has degraded to the point of being unwatchable If i'd been born 5 years later, it would all probably be on youtube now. I'm not sure whether i'm happy or sad that it's gone forever. Some of it was pretty horrendous!
  10. I love our colours and kit. I love the return to white socks as well. I hope that continues with future kits.
  11. I'd rather keep him for the year and let him go on a free at the end of the year tbh. We'll need him at least until we have a buyer if we're any chance of staying up.
  12. I've done a 450 splash off of a trampoline through an opponent laying on a table (milk crates for legs and a thin sheet of ply) once. But i'd never jump off of a roof onto my tailbone jesus christ what an idiot
  13. My two favourite players at the tournament I really hope Leckie moves to a top level club after this tournament. He's too good to be playing 2nd Division German football and we need him to develop.
  14. FFS sturridge if you try to shoot and don't go down like a sack of potatoes you might actually get fouled.
  15. Welbeck is garbage. Losing the ball over and over again
  16. The ball is being given up meekly in midfield so often in this match that I keep thinking I'm watching an Aston Villa internal practice match
  17. The other thing is that most people who die are old, and heart disease is an old person's disease in general. The same map but only for people under 50 would be far more interesting.
  18. The kids we played in his place are much better than him technically. We'd have gained nothing by picking him.
  19. The difference was finishing quality I felt. I thought we had a few fantastic chances where we didn't get a shot away because the player knew he couldn't do it and hesitated or made a bad pass. Down the other end we see 3 really good finishes from the chances you did create. Another brave effort from the Socceroos but you don't get anything for being brave.
  20. **** We've had some wide open chances and stuffed them, they've taken half chances. We don't quite have the quality for all of the effort.
  21. Seriously you wait 4 years for a World Cup and within 40 minutes you do that
  22. Pepe you dumbass Had to be a red What did he think was going to happen? Call him a word removed and a cheat and get on with the game jesus christ.
  23. Given that Messi's goal took a slight deflection then only just went in off the post, was it even his goal? Classic Messi run though, phenomenal player.
