  1. A whole lot of wrong and racism on this thread. Big tar brushes everywhere.
  2. Dave, I agree that the top players do aim for honours etc. However, when you look at where Barry is at now, with only a few years left of his professional career and suddenly ManCity offers him £5 million more a year; I cannot see many mortals who will turn down that kind of money. Footballers are people too. You can call it what you want, greedy etc, but most of us if not all know that we have to look out for Number One. Is it inexcuseable, unforgiveable, bastardly? I don't think so. He is just looking out for himself and I think we would all do the same.
  3. I don't think that is correct at all. A footballer knows that once his professional career is over, he's never going to earn that kind of money again. The mentality to milk his talent for all it is worth (whether honours or money) is ever present. And please don't tell me that Barry is not moved by a pay increment of 40K to 130K a week. That's a 300+% pay rise. From under £2 million to close to £7 million a year just wages. Lets be realistic here. Except for billionaires, anyone who says that £5 million a year is nothing is flat out lying.
  4. I don't understand why a footballer leaving the club for higher wages is known as a 'mercenery', 'greedy' etc. Fucking hell most if not all of us on here would change companies if the next job in the same capacity paid 100% more (in Barry's case its even more). Just because he earns way more than most of us is not the way to look at it as his reference point is different. Hypocrites.
  5. Fuck Arsene Wenger, him and his bunch are nailed on to capitulate.
  6. I don't understand, after all that, why pop Si? WHY? What happened to your lust for polish crisps?
  7. Here are some funny Star Wars posters to tide you through Thursday before the weekend cometh. Sauce from: Disney Star Wars Weekend Posters are Awesome! (13 Total) - My Modern Metropolis
  8. I must say that your signature is pretty apt. Congrats Capt.!
  9. Haha our friends in the UK are gonna wake up in a couple of hours to the graffiti that is Drunk Leeson.
  10. I used pdf995 (its free of course) recently and found that it was alright. Not sure of others but I've tried some horrible converters (can't remember the names).
  11. Not really. I think of wrassling.
  12. If we had no rules where would we be? FRANCE!
  13. What is the amateur driver's speed relative to the pro? Also if you're gonna do it live, you'll never have information about how long the safety car is going to be out there do you? Thus you'll have a cut off point for the safety car as well, i.e. if safety car expected to be out for > x no. of laps then change, else no change.
  14. Yea, there are legit ones, my ex-housemate works in a marketing research company. What they do is that although its, say £1 per survey, you might have to complete 30 or 50 before they pay you a lump sum of £30 or £50.
  15. I agree, wouldn't follow anyone as it'll be 'the worst part of facebook'. However, I would follow TLW if there was one. I would be able to keep in touch with say a game reaction or the issue of a new TLW magazine if I didn't have that much time to trawl through the *F. For the record I am following Al Gore, Greenpeace and a handful of my closest friends.
  16. For those who have no idea about Hillsborough, please watch this, only a little under 10 mins, great little clip. JFT 96. BBC NEWS | Programmes | Newsnight | Hillsborough: "Justice for the 96" The first (out of 40) ambulance that got onto the pitch by disregarding the police. Leg.
