Paul Don

'Hello and welcome to the John Barnes Soccer Night, with me, John Barnes'. By no means the worst, but certainly the most wooden.

Frank Burnside and Ted Roach - when 'The Bill' was all about catching fucking criminals and none of this community policing malarkey. 'He fell down the stairs 'guv, over and over again'. I also think that Eastenders has never been the same since Lofty left.

Stallone was on Jonathan Ross and apparently there are something like 263 deaths in the new film, an average of one every 25 seconds. First Blood only had one or two didn't it?

Iceland - Pies, Pizza and all the Ice Cream you can eat you fat twat.

I agree with Paul, the casting for Band of Brothers was outstanding. There really is no end to the number of amazing stories to come out of that war.

Let's just hope we don't have to call on ours.......

Remember 1965? No me neither but that ref was bent as fuck. Revenge I hope. I remember in 2005 when we had a similarly shocking domestic season thinking that we would do well in the Champions' League, although never thought we'd go on and win it. I'm afraid the sense of optimism isn't there this year. Would love it to happen again though. But it wouldn't have the same sense of utter elation; we'd have still failed in our objective for the season. Suffice to say, we will still finish fourth.

Babel has the raw qualities of an outstanding player but can't be expected to deliver every week, especially in the current climate surrounding the club. He shouldn't have gone off yesterday though. He'll prove to be one of the plius points of this utterly depressing season so far. Let him play the full 90 against Inter.

What a crying shame. This has once again demonstrated the complete ineptitude and 'out-of-touch-with-the-common-supporter' ness of the FA. For once, Sepp Blatter manages not to talk out of his ring.

Indeed, it's not all it's cracked up to be as I've found. Just as well I found a lovely girl down here or I'd be back in Liverpool like a shot. That house is like a giant mausoleum, absolutely massive but with, IMO, absolutely no taste. Space for 28 Rolls Royces? The previous owner only fucking stayed at the house twice in 15 years!

This perhaps. BBC NEWS | UK | England | London | Luxury mansion is sold for £50m And with £1 million change to boot.

'Did I say Death Camp, I meant Happy Camp!'

Yeah, perhaps should have narrowed it down a bit. Work near Temple, so somewhere fairly central. Covent Garden sounds like a plan.

Any recommendations for decent boozer to watch the game in? Walkabout bar at Temple has been mentioned but it will be manic. Any Red-friendly, red brick, street corner, spit and sawdust type places? No trendy wine bars please. Cheers.

Still there, Easton is the pitchside PA.

Phil Easton - George's understudy and former Radio City sports anchor, I think.

To those fortunate enough to be there, make those of us holed up in the extremities of the country and the planet green with envy as you raise the roof from first minute to last. I want people to know tomorrow morning, just by the look on my face, that I am a Liverpudlian. Make sure it's because of victory, not defeat.

I was at Epcot Centre in Florida the other week and the British 'zone' had a sports shop with loads of the 1989-90 Candy tops in the window. It was a random sight in amongst all the Disney crap.

Don't know him personally but I'm sure I've heard forumite Dirk mention that he has one of those babies.

I'm moving to London next week and have told anyone here in Liverpool that if I come back with anything resembling a London twang they may punch me. I like the softly spoken Geordie accent, not the full blown Spuggie style though.

Someone should slip George Sephton a few quid to tell everyone in the ground that if they partake in such generic bullshit they will be forcibly ejected and rogered by the police horses outside. OK, maybe not.

Outstanding. I'll take ten!

We'll be alright. Just going through a bad patch which we will come out of. Get behind them and show them that no matter what we'll support them. Anyone talking up campaigns like this in my general direction will get short shrift and possibly even a bunch of fives.

The thread title summarises him better than I ever could.

Get to fuck, he's not trying to be a super fan. Or do you actually like being surrounded by generic numpties who haven't got a clue about supporting Liverpool? Mancs for me.
