whats to stop it being used as a way to stop teams counter attacking? like the current 'injured' thing that players do to get their opposition to kick it out of play?

you limit it to one a game

if your appeal is successful, youve still got one. if you waste it and 2 minutes later youre turned down a blatant penalty, tough shit

Spot on...or maybe like tennis when they get two a set, teams could get 1 or 2 per half

nah, multiples opens it up to potential abuse. 1 per game unless youre right

.... do you think heskey is world class then?

No, but then again I've not called Lennon world class either, so what's your point?

your point is you put so much weight in the opinion of other managers in lennon, yet plenty of former managers (including one in common with those in your lennon list) think hes fantastic

hes clearly not

im just highlighting that just because "insert name here" says someone is good, it doesnt mean they are

By now as in any spurs player of obvious class who performs consistently for more than 18 months and aren't made of glass would be gone 'by now'

So you don't rate Lennon. However, Capello rates him, Redknapp rates him, Jol rates him and every manager he's ever played for has rated him.

So I'll trust their (and my) judgement over your assessment "abilities", because it seems you wouldn't know obvious class if it bit you on the arse.

powerful ftw

If I hit a man I know it would probably be out of fear or self defence, if so I can justify that in my mind. But if I hit a woman it would most almost certainly be for my own twisted pleasure 'you've pushed me, take that'. That moment of pleasure would quickly turn to guilt.

so youre saying you cant possibly hit a woman out of self defence, that its just someone taking pleasure out of it?

thats kinda **** up tbh

amazingly, this was just posted on another board i use - comic timing is alive and well

What is so different about women that they don't deserve the same retaliation as a man who did the same?

Ummm...

Men are naturally stronger then women and you could really hurt a woman with a single blow. A man should never hit a lady no matter what.

All a man needs to do is walk away, or use reasonable force to stop a lady from abusing them again if that is the situation… not throw a punch.

if a woman came at me with a knife, intending to use it on me, id have no problem with really hurting her with a punch

same as if a 12 year old child did the same

in self defence yes, no problem

finlandia and coke zero

not the most masculine combo ever

id keep it

the trick would be just to use it as spending money. let your wages hit the bank and dont touch him, any time you need to buy something just take a note or 2 out of the big bag o cash. that way when the free money is all gone, you're gonna feel like youve just made another shitload coz of all the cash you saved by not touching your income

Cheeses. Where's the box that says 6, and what's wrong with you people?

With the right kind (ok, miraculous kind) of luck:

Emile Heskey

Gabby

Stewart Downing

Ashley Young

James Milner

Stephen Warnock

Could all go, even Luke Young, who would go if 1st choice I bet.

If all seven made it, you can bet we'd have finished in the top 4

just the one id imagine, if heskey is still at villa by then

So is it better just to piss your pants then ?

ive always wondered that

say youre absolutely gagging for a piss, like literally cannot hold it, and theres a copper there, could you get done for pissing yourself in front of him?

do you walk into pubs and sing songs that you pretend to have written whilst pretending to be a secret agent and making accurate "predictions" about the war

cant say enough for walking, ive lost 5 stone coz of it

alternate running as far as you can one day with doing a 10 mile walk the next day as fast as you can, thatll increase your lung capacity and make you fitter while not putting the same demands on your body in terms of impact

im gonna go to my physio next month when im back in ireland and see what he thinks

raelly dont wanna **** it up again though, so if he greenlights ill take it very very slowly

nah i physically cant

i broke 2 metatarsals years back, the hospital told me i was fine, and i proceeded to walk around for 18 months on the foot. the bones fused a bit, healed wrong, and started growing up out of my instep, so i had to have the foot broken, the bones seperated, the excess bone chissled off, and the whole thing reset - so basically my whole right foot is brittle as ****

cheers

as i say though id much prefer to be able to run, but i had a couple of pretty bad foot injuries so it most likely would stand up to the extra impact of running

im losing too much weight though, thats the downside of the longer walks

im walking 27km a day now, which would be so much less time consuming if i could run

:shock:

Do you mean 27km a week?

no, a day

*edit*

only 27km 5 days a week, the 6th day is just 9km and saturday is my day off

every time i see this thread it makes me bitter

im walking 27km a day now, which would be so much less time consuming if i could run

splitting it over 3 9km sessions which take about 70 minutes a pop

from jan onwards youre looking at more regular injuries and suspensions though, so he'd definitely get more gametime than at spurs

i wouldnt even consider holding onto him past the summer if we got him on loan, unless he was absolutely shit hot for us. but for the few months it could work a charm to have an experienced alternative

if we could get pav on a 6 month loan and ship out heskey i think itd be an improvement. the chap can get on the end of things when given the chance

wouldnt go straight out and buy the chap though

martin tyler just now: "steven sidwell... and hes [emphasis on] gingerly getting back to his feet there"

i chuckled

no Salifou is pure dog shite..

salifou doesnt take up a place on the pitch or bench most weeks though
