  1. Who in sweet Jesus are these morons who think its OK to have a go at Olympic athletes through social media to the point they are forced to delete their twitter account.......scum who should feel the full weight of the law thrown at them.
  2. The one who lies on the tea tray and shoots down track, the one in first position, the one who just possibly might get us another medal so yes the one in the Skeleton. Mind you I know have a brilliant idea for an olympic sport, curling in sumo suits.....could go viral.
  3. Bad Grandpa but that was more to do with the fact I realised about 5 minutes in that I had paid £15.00 for me and the other half to watch that crap. Jonny Knoxville would have been crying if I had seen him when I was coming out of the cinema..............................
  4. Can we wrap Lizzie Arnold in cotton wool overnight as we need her tomorrow to come up with the goods. Curling is becoming addictive, I am going to polish the hall floor tonight and get the iron out..........................
  5. I will need someone to phone the Mrs and pretend to be a PPI claims company while I switch back over.
  6. Well it looks like the gales have moved my sky dish and has turned watching the bbc2 coverage into some sort of weird stop motion with added digital interference which has meant my wife has switched over to Sense and Sensibility on Sky Movies which amazingly is not suffering from the same issues......bugger.
  7. What colour tarmac do they use round your area Risso
  8. Watched a bit of the BBC coverage last night and they had Katie Summerhayes and her family on. These athletes who take a huge gamble that sport is what they want to do and will base their life around achieving their goals should always be admired no matter how successful or otherwise they end up being, but last night made me think what would I do as a parent if my son or daughter came and said they wanted to do skiing or snowboarding. The nearest centre would either be Gloucester or Tamworth and neither are a million miles away but then presumably going once a week wouldnt hack it so immediately you are looking at costs which you wouldnt have budgeted for. My son is 14 so you would have to factor in homework etc as you would still want them to have that as a priority. The parents you would assume have to make sacrifices both financial and socially so that their children get to have a good go at it. As a parent I have to admire them for that.
  9. Watched the ladies curling this morning and I am puzzled. The last end the GB ladies could have dropped the stone in scored 2 point and drawn the game (although I think they play an extra end) but instead went for massive blast that meant the moved one of Canada stones to the winning position so we lost by 3 points.............................
  10. Lack of Mullet was a dead giveaway....
  11. Ski Jumping now that is a sport for the fearless or Lemmings....
  12. Skiing at speed, up on rails, and then over huge ramps, doing jumps/twists/turns in the air, having to prevent your feet from being too far apart on landing whilst sometimes skiing backwards. Why not!? Its Skiing on a snow boarding course, skiing backwards just looks wrong and we didn't get a medal in it. The GB ladies Curling team are very attractive and I get the feeling that Eve Muirhead could be very hard to please in the bedroom which strikes me as a challenge........
  13. Walking Dead......sorry but thought it was poor.
  14. Once you have done your event do you get the opportunity to catch any of the other sports live or are you just left to do your own thing in the olympic village?
  15. Captain Philips, very good film. You do wonder though how some Somalians with metal ladder can manage to capture a cargo ship. Tom Hanks plays his part superbly. Bad Grandpa, 10 minutes of good stuff mixed in with an hour and twenty minutes of crap.
  16. As soon as the first bit of snow sticks around we will all be out trying to snowboard on whatever we can get our hands on, I am making a the prediction that Jenny will be responsible for a glut of people filling up A&E during the rest of February with Snowboard related injuries.......
  17. Thats a question we all ask ourselves at 5 to 5 almost every Saturday
  18. Ladies Curling Team had a tough start which hasnt gone to plan. Lets hope they can pick themselves up and go again...
  19. Well until then enjoy being the Golden Girl for Team GB
  20. How did Peter Withe get on as a manager?
  21. Just remind me how many of the following managers have achieved back to back promotions. Wenger Mourinho Ferguson Benetiz Martinez
  22. Ian Holloway Phil Brown Neil Warnock All winners too then and so presumably all good candidates for managing AVFC.
  23. Some managers are born winners, Big Ron won cups at the Villa when we were underdogs, Fergie won the league last season with a similar team to the one that Moyes cannot get top 5. Lambert if he was a winner would have beat Bradford over two legs and brought the trophy back to VP. Lambert is not a winner and no amount of time or backing will change that.
