  1. Not sure I believe you. Maybe though. 50/50.
  2. The first World Cup this chap remembers is 2002. He doesn't remember France '98, or Euro "Football's coming home" '96, or USA '94, or Italia '90. I'm only a few years older than the lad, but he's just made me feel old. Thanks for that, Nathan.
  3. Macron site is offering it to me for $37, which is about GBP 23.
  4. Overall this essay is a very solid effort from a promising writer. The author advances the thesis not just that the the sun shall again rise tomorrow regardless of the result against Fulham, but that there are reasonable grounds for hope for better results in the future. In a credit to his mother, the author elucidates his thoughts articulately. One line in particular struck me as one of the best I've seen from the class in several months: The thesis continued to make points in a collected, convincing manner. Most importantly I was aware of the poetic significance of the increase in quality of prose at a time of increased hope for the club as a whole. I would venture to compare this post to the signing of Idrissa Gueye, and contrast it to the posts in the era of Grant Holt and Habib Beye. I concur with the author about the glimmer of hope on the horizon. I must however encourage the author to refrain from the unattributed references to Lennon (1971). Stop it, you bastard.
  5. See if you can get in touch with a union. Do you work in the retail end of things? HR departments must follow fair procedures. If you're brought in for something "informal" that ends up in suspension, then they're on dodgy ground straight away. This is a good thing for you. Talk to Citizens Advice and also see if you can talk to a relevant union, e.g. Unite. And most importantly, don't take all this personally. Shit happens. Regardless of how this ends up, we all make mistakes and go through ups and down. You're no different a man than you were last month, and you'll be no different next month. Chin up.
  6. "I love playing for this team. I get on with everyone." Please like me. I have lots of friends.
  7. Macron have the text printed upside down, the knobheads.
  8. What's one extra place in the league worth these days, £3m? Anyone who is convinced he wouldn't score enough wouldn't score enough goals over two seasons to earn us another few points needs their head checked imo.
  9. I personally think the chap is a scrote but under TS a year ago, Adebayor scored 15 times in 30 or so matches. That's as many as Andi Weimann scored in his five years at the club, and we sold him for £2 million. Adebayor for £5m on £50k a week, in today's market, would represent great value. That's about as much as we spent on Marlon Harewood for God's sake.

    Doesn't necessarily mean he's left though does it? Think he's still around. No announcement from the club afaik and was training with the squad at the end of last season. Can't imagine he has much of a future if we get Amavi in though.
  11. I was there for his debut. A pre-season friendly against Fiorentina on a lovely sunny afternoon. I think Heskey got the winner for us that day. I brought a girl who'd never been to a football match never mind not been to VP before. She asked why he got a big cheer when his name was announced. I explained that he had just signed for us. She moved to Scotland, and I moved to the US a year or two later. I've only seen her a handful of times since. Anyway, Fabian Delph is a prick.
  12. VT'ers really sink their jaws into puns when they get their chance, but the real problem is the choice of topic always leaves a sea of options. It's just wave after wave of puns all day long until we reach our quota. But at least at the fin we've all had a whale of time, but not before some mod has completely jumped the shark. Mods have a habit here of thinking things have gone off the scales.
  13. Boring fish puns by the boatload.
  14. Bit of a roll of the dice, that.
  15. Yesterday I noticed that Luna was not listed as a squad member on the official website. Joe Bennett's not on there either.
  16. Gone back to Spain. (Link) I'll never forget wondering what the hell you were doing in such space against Arsenal. Best of luck, Tony Moon.
  17. Joleon Lescott-Bon-LA-whore?
  18. Love the change of the crest in the away. Looks class.
  19. Sometimes sorry isn't good enough. I'll take that as a warming. (it's taken me about 7 minutes to think of that) Your brain just didn't turnip this morning.
  20. At least 15% of posts on this site are absolutely insane.
  21. http://www.the42.ie/footballers-haircuts-2177459-Jun2015/ Solid 8 out of 10.
  22. Well then she wouldn't get no love from me. I'd hang out of her passenger side.
