Guus

I have a pain in the back of my leg when I run, I'm pretty sure that it's not my hamstring as its not painful when I extend, just when I make certain movements.

I stretch for about 10 mins before and after, but I can't seem to make it go away.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

A man charges into a bank wearing a balaclava and wielding a handgun, he

shouts 'This is a raid - everyone get on the floor!!' and proceeds to

empty the cash drawers. As he runs towards the door with the loot, a brave customer yanks off

his balaclava, the robber immediately shoots the customer in the head and shouts 'Did anybody else here see my face?'

The robber notices another customer peering from behind a counter and goes over and shoots him in the head also. 'Did anybody else see my

face?' he shouts again, waving his gun around.

There is silence for a few seconds before an Aussie male voice is heard from a distant corner .

Jockeys at the Plumpton meeting will today wear black armbands in memory of Jacko who rode more three year olds than anyone in living memory

I've said it before but i won't mind, i hope he goes early in the summer so it doesn't drag on. We need a different player than barry to partner petrov and i think that will help us alot. We need someone whose alot better going forward and i believe we will be able to bring in someone very decent to fill the void left by barry.

I've got an even better idea. Keep Barry, our England regular and best player and replace Petrov with a class box to box midfielder

Barry cna then do his England role for Villa and we'd be better straight away

This whole Petrov is suddenly a class act thing is most amusing. He's 5 times the player he was previously for us, yet still has no massive impact on the side apart from his crab like sideways passing. He offers no assists, he doesn't get involved in set pieces, he doesn't score, he doesn't have any pace etc etc

He does a great job playing short 5 yard balls and running around a lot

BRILLIANT!

The top 4 will all come knocking on O'Neill's door for him this summer i'm sure

IMHO every team needs a player similar to this in the Keane, Makalele, Viera mould.

I'm not saying that Stan is at their level, but what I am saying is that he does a lot of the dirty work, tackling, ball retention, organisation, stuff that largely goes unnoticed and largely unappreciated.

I think he has had a good season and therefore think that I would rather let go of Barry and get someone with the same attacking flair but with pace.

Stretching: there is a school of thought that says you should always stretch AFTER running, but never BEFORE, as stretching un-warmed-up muscles and tendons is likely to do more harm than good.

Some say 10-15 mins warmup then stretching.

However along with the recommended warm down and stretch out, it turns even the smallest run into a long winded effort!

Totally agree. And my laziness/impatience always comes back to bite me. Had my first run for three weeks on Tuesday. Achilles still dodgy, so just did a steady five miler (45 mins or so). Not too much reaction so I'll go out again this evening. Next race is on May 4th, I'm running out of time.

May the 4th be with you in that race.

Cruel BOF, cruel.

Probably I say old bean, I think we've seen this somewhere before! but what the heck......

General.

I have just looked at your Wiki entry, and my head is spinning whilst reading how many important posts have held during your career in the Marines and now during your 'retirement'.

Thanks for the time you spend to listen and respond to us, and forgive us sometimes for going overboard with our critisims. We are lucky to have you aboard.

Thanks General.

Hi General.

Are there any plans to install seats similar to the ones in the ManU, Arsenal, Chelsea dug outs?

I noticed during the ManU vs Chelsea game that there are 2 sponsors on the seats, and seeing that the TV cameras love MON at the moment, we could probably get a fair price for the rights.

General.

Regarding Season Ticket price increases, I WILL be renewing.

Thank you for making this season an exciting one.

I prefer MOTD2.

I also prefer Lee Dixon and Gavin Peacock to the MOTD1 pundits.

MOTD1 IMO is getting a bit tired.

Yes.

How about translating the Official Site into other languages?

Apologies if this has already been suggested.

6. The entire stadium stairs and seating area were steam cleaned this past summer...entirely. We moved tons of dirt and filth over a several week period. If you think it is bad now, then you should have seen it before. I am sad that you think it looks bad because we invested a great deal of money cleaning the entire stadium.

On the contrary general, I have been to the last 2 reserve matches and the stadium looks immaculately clean.

It looks like it's had a trip to see the Taxidermist!

Panda's are for girls! :winkold:

I rarely take any notice of the lyrics because they are written so they rhyme, rather than make sense.
