God: You knows it. Cheers!

 

 

Latest stuff is that Wiggins won't be there:

Beeb link

Sir Bradley Wiggins says he will not be competing in this year's Tour de France "as things stand".

 

Yeah, from what I've read recently, the relationship between Froome Dog and Wiggo has completely broken down, and as such, with Froome leading Team Sky, Wiggo's got no chance of being there.

 

Sad state of affairs. Orica Greenedge it is for Wiggo then I guess, for him to have 1 last stab at the TDF next year.

 

Its broken down? It never existed. Wiggins won’t win a grand tour again IMO, he talks the talk, but he can’t do whats necessary anymore. 

 

I thought he was concentrating on Track racing after this season?

I literally can't think of a single ex pro or pundit that I would pay less attention to than Tony Cascarino. 

Amen to that.

How he has made a career out of Broadcasting and Sports Journalism is beyond me.

The bloke can't string a coherent sentence together.

My frame is Di2 campatible...........I may wait a year or so.

So, does that mean my 6800 is di2 upgrade compatible?

Apologies if I'm getting the wrong end of the stick?

I was looking for di2 and couldn't find it for less than about £950.00 plus installation. Where did you get that price?

Fwiw, I went for Ultegra 6800 mechanical instead.

Why would an illiterate bluenose who can barely construct a sentence be at a meeting with guys from the PFA?

I can imagine he fits in well at the PFA.

Tony Cascarino.

Herf gets my vote.

Read this thread regularly, thought about commenting, and am glad I hadn't really put my 2p in.

I turned up on Saturday and saw our previously second choice keeper pull of a few blinding saves and cause the whole Holte End to chant his name even when he just caught a cross, , a previously "league one quality" right back chest the ball down for a phenomenal volley into the back of the net, a raw 21-year old Belgian get heavily involved up front and chase down an errant back pass for a goal (who last did that kinda thing for Villa?), a little-known Australian who's plied his trade in the Dutch league run himself into oblivion for 70-odd minutes chasing down every loose ball and pushing us forward into attacking positions, a £3m central defender get promoted to team captain in his 4th Premiership match and show everyone how much it meant to both him and the team by leading by example, and more than anything else I watched a Villa team being praised, guided, supported, comforted, and challenged by a manager who has put faith in players that other clubs might have shied away from and watch it bring an enthusiasm back to Villa Park's crowd that's been sorely missing for a good while.

Man City's unlimited millions and signing players on £200,000 a week? **** 'em. Nice if they can do it - but what I got from watching my team at the weekend was a massive smile, a spring in my step, and a realisation that Paul Lambert's vision is probably going to make watching Villa an exciting roller-coaster of a ride that could take us absolutely anywhere.

Not blind love, maybe blinkered at worst.

^This is where I'm at.^

I have missed that news. WTF why has he gone forest?

You must be the worst ITK out the lot.

You're not even ITK about factual things that have actually happened.

That's just made my day.

I thought this guy was utter shit at the WC

Had no pace and no communication with his other centre half whenever teams went forward there was so much space to exploit

No thanks

I thought Wesley sneijder was rubbish at the euros also.

I'd have policemen in every carp park

This. The smuggling of unpaid fish from designated farms is crippling the industry.

Good work, BOF.

Having watched the video, I really like the kit.

Good job Villa and Macron.

I like the socks.

Does anyone know where Laursen is off to?

Alt-J at the Hare and Hounds in Kings Heath last night.

Interesting band, quite original/quirky.

I enjoyed it.

#LambertOut

Its no secret Barry Bannan is a complete and utter pisshead

I think you can add Herd to the list as well from what I've been told.

I know this has been alluded to already, and tbh, I've resigned myself to the fact it's a lost cause, BUT, could the situation be a massive smokescreen for OGS?

We fly the guy over for talks, moldes owner gets wind, goes nuts, OGS states to the owner he wants to leave, owner doesn't want to stand in his way but insists on time in getting replacement, we agree, keep everything on the quiet and this is where we find ourselves, lacking direction supposedly in no rush and linked to everybodyand nobody.

Anyone???? No????

Two Irishmen standing at the bar, Paddy says to Mick "Tell me Mick, why do those scuba divers fall off their boats backwards to get into the sea?" Murphy tuts and replies " Jesus, Paddy thats simple, if they fell forwards they'd still be on the **** boat...."

I don't want him. Here is my reasoning:

I used to like it when we sang 'Martin, give us a wave! Martin, Martin, give us a wave!'

I like the fact that we had the option to chant this to Gerard and Alex... but Paul is a one syllable name and for that reason, we should go for Brendan Rodgers.

It just makes sense.

How about 'Lambert, give us a wave.........'

He looked at bit like nasri.
