  1. As has already been said, Zouma is the type of centre back you just want to get rid of the ball as soon as he gets it. Hopefully that third goal might teach him a lesson. What the fuck was their mascot by the way? It was like some kind of cross between a rabbit and a dinosaur.
  2. I would have no problem with the competition if it wasn't for these u21 teams. It's an insult to have to play them. Is there still that daft rule where Football League teams have to play a certain number of players that played in their last league match? Absolute bollocks.
  3. Ticket site slow as fuck. Lesson learned for the Sunderland game, buy well in advance.
  4. How is Zimbabwe doing now he's gone? Genuine question, I have no idea. Is it the typical power vacuum situation?
  5. The beer at the Unibol is hit and miss, but to be fair the beer token system in the west lower works well. But they are a right gormless bunch behind the bar at times. Just have one person on the till, and two people constant pouring the pints. Hardly rocket science. In north lower a couple of years back, one lad asked me if grolsch was a lager or cider!
  6. The four group winners in each league* enter a mini competition, the winner of each of them 4 mini competitions qualify for the Euros. *unless they have already qualified for the tournament through the standard qualifying route, then their playoff place gets handed down to the 2nd placed team in their Nations League group.
  7. He reminds me of Joey Barton how he tries to sound intelligent and articulate in his interviews, but is actually numb as fuck. Clearly hasn't the first idea about the situation at Bolton. Here's a tip Steven, if you don't know enough about a topic to give an informed opinion, then shut the fuck up. The colossal bell end.
  8. I don't mind watching women's football, but so many goals seem to be the result of individual errors rather than great play. This USA - Thailand game is going to reach double figures easily.
  9. Ask your supplier if they are installing old SMETS1 or the newer SMETS2 meters. If they are installing SMETS1, don't bother, it will revert back to a "dumb" meter if you switch providers. If they are installing the newer meters, I'd do it. Most will still be installing the older meters.
  10. Orri Freyr Oskarsson. Goal machine.
  11. Chris Eagles last minute winner against Blackburn was superb. Not exactly a great goal, just the fact it was pretty much the last kick of the game and against that lot. The place went mental. The best has to be Okocha's second free kick against Villa though.
  12. There was a competitor on the Invictus Games that won a couple of golds who had been badly injured in Afghanistan. I think he lost a leg. I happen to share the same name. A woman who was a complete stranger contacted me on Facebook, saying my story had been a huge inspiration to her, in the sense that if I could fight my way through what I'd been through and become an athlete, she can make it through all the stuff in her life, such as the breakdown of her marriage and the death of her parents. And all sorts of other personal stuff that she'd had to cope with over the last five years. Sounded lime she'd really been through it. Quite difficult to put together a reply which was sympathetic, yet at the same time went along the lines of "sorry love, wrong person". I always seem to get quite a few random friend requests after the Invictus Games.
  13. Mentioned it on here before, but people ending sentences (spoken and written) with the word "right", therefore turning a statement of fact into a question. Heard a lot of people recently saying "I know, right?". Absolute bollocks.
  14. Absolute nailed on penalty. Clear boot to the back of the leg.
  15. Read this yesterday with my one year old son playing on the carpet in front of me. Whilst it's great to think back to those days, it's a shame he will probably never see anything even close to what we were lucky enough to see.
  16. Shite these lot at the back. Rooney will definitely score. Without a doubt. Worth a dabble at 13/5.
  17. Running rings round these yanks. Should be at least one up by now. Probably end up a draw now I've said that.
  18. 1-0. Dull game until Hobbs bags right at the end.
  19. I've always wondered with average speed cameras on motorways, do you get the 10% leniency?
  20. Only saw the second half. Thought we looked decent, quite an open game. No chance we'll top the group, but as long as we don't get relegated I'll be happy.
  21. Used it for the first time tonight for the game. Crap picture at first. Then decided to switch the VPN off and the picture was perfect. Happy with Necro. So far.
  22. I've had a mate recommend Necro to me, and I'm thinking of taking up the 3 day trial this weekend to get the England game. Just need to sort the VPN now. Tunnel Bear allows you 500mb a month for free. How much of that is likely to get gobbled up by a full match? Is 500mb likely to be enough? Can anyone recommend any other decrnt (ideally cheap) VPNs?
  23. Been speaking to a few rovers fans tonight who gladly admit they were lucky. They pretty much did to us what we did to Derby last week. They had few chances, took one, then defended well. Fuck it, it happens. We were definitely unlucky today. But I've seen enough to be think we're good enough to stay up.
  24. Buckley's best game in a long time, worked his arse off. As did they all. Outstanding.
