*Fume* Just watched Football Matters on saltana, good presenters, holloway, good show until WHAM they let Graham Poll talk on refereeing matters.... Basically I've ranted on fb already, so won't bore you too much, but Poll LOVED the challenge that resulted in Fabs injury, saying essentially that it was a good old hard challenge and not even a free-kick. Completely missing the contentious issue of "intent", given the circumstances there was no footballing benefit for Alonso smashing the ball as hard as he could towards the sideline from some 10yds away, the point is he saw the opportunity to put a hurting on an opponent and proceeded to do so. Now I'm no goon-lover, FAR from it, but when Adebayor is red-carded for being clumsy whilst trying to keep posession, yet Alonso is unpunished for being malicious whilst not caring about posession, well clearly something is awry....
Had my birthday over the weekend and my wife threw me a fantastic party. Lots of friends and family were on hand. Of all the wonderful gifts I received, 2 stand out. A bottle of Johnnie Walker Gold label and a bottle of Dalmore single malt. The party continues Christmas, as we fly to Vegas with some friends for a long weekend. Good times!
happy birthday! hope you see some cool shows and win a lot of money (and remember to give me a share of your earnings--it's the socialist way)
merry christmas mr.Skizzlington and anybody else sad enough to be on bigsoccer forums on christmas day!
Damn I'm full of good food! Gotta love Christmas no matter what - even if it means playing kids monopoly with your 6 year old cousin for over an hour! Feeling the credit crunch on this side of the world, my family didn't exactly splash out on gifts. IE, I got the December issue of FourFourTwo magazine for Christmas!
And I'ma double post because you're all feeling festive, and I can blame it on the recent gremlins of the forum anyways... It's taken me how many months to notice this....BUT Pompey don't play in red socks anymore!!
Yeah, Harry Redknapp had paid for them out of his own pocket, so he took them all out the kit bag when he left...true story!
Happy Christmas or w/e else you celebrate! Time to start getting back in shape haha going out tomorrow to get a pair of running shoes and nike+ ipod thingy for my touch.
Well I'm a day late to the party so erm.... HAPPY BOXING DAY EVERYONE! Just ordered myself some Pine SL's as a little gift. They were a steal for $160.
I hope everyone had a good christmas! I was away with my family so didn't get a chance to say it on the day! appleCORR
I haven't even ventured near any sales! I know that the bullring in Birmingham would be absolutely rammed! plus, half the sales were going on before Christmas this year! Its stupid! Not as stupid as Stoke going on about Ricardo Fullers bitch slap on his own team mate. They are proper bumming him right now! appleCORR
Can i just say Jermaine Pennant ..... Real Madrid? WHAT? hahaha! He doesnt even play regular football for Liverpool. Whats all that about?! appleCORR
