    I'm doing research right now for my honours script. Have to have it done by April. It'll be the only script I write this year. Feature though. Anyone else?

    I've just cum.

    Can't stand this. Was quite impressed with the demo and bought it yesterday. It's really awful. I totally agreed with everything Wor Horse said. It's just no fun. Every game plays exactly the same way. Every team is exactly as good as every other team so far and I've played about ten matches as Liverpool in a season and loads of exhibition games across varying difficulty levels. There shouldn't be any difficulty level in any football game that makes Charlton absolutely unbeatable no matter what team you are. Legendary should make the game more realistic. Isn't that what FIFA is trying to be? Isn't that how it's setting its stall out? There is no level where beating Barca is near impossible, but beating other teams isn't. It's either, Barca and everyone else is too easy or Barca and everyone else is just beatable or Barca and everyone else is unplayable. It's sanitised nonsense dressed up in frilly skills with baubles hanging off, but it's not fun to play. Every game is, by and large, exactly the fucking same game.

    There is a huge difference between the top and bottom estimates of the numbers at Thermopylae. But even just taking the bottom estimates, it's still an incredible achievement to hold them off for so long. On the Greek side you have a total of about 7000 men, including Thespians, Lacedemonians, Arcadians etc. On the Persian side you have at least 70,000 and possibly as much as 300,000. That is still an overwhelming difference. Themistocles achievements were obviously great as well. Not only at Salamis, but he fought in the Battle of Marathon. He also convinced Athens it needed to pour shed loads of money into its navy which would ultimately see them through. But the man, by all historical accounts, was a bit of a cunt. He was an arrogant, ambitious arsehole who played the people of his own country against each other when it suited him. He turned his back on Greece and spent the last ten years of his life serving the Persian King. For that, I don't think he can be considered ahead of Leonidas. Also Leonidas was one of the only Spartan kings to ever train at the Agoge, where Spartan boys earnt their citizenship. The fact that he was chosen to lead the combined Greek forces was in itself a tribute to his military leadership. If anything they can be considered equal. One man gave his life for the protection of Greece. The other achieved more but never made a sacrifice so great.

    My shout is King Leonidas I of Sparta. The man had massive bronze balls that he used to hold back a ridiculously huge army, knowing he was going to die doing it, to give the rest of Greece time to rally together. Because of what he and his soldiers did, the Persians did not take over all of Greece before ideas like Democracy had the chance to exist. The Persian empire was massive. If they'd taken Greece, the rest of Europe was most likely next. Imaging how different the world would be today if Western culture had been obliterated in it's infancy. I can't think of anyone else who has done something that has had such a profound effect of the rest of history.

    Mother Teresa was a fucking whore for the Catholic Church. In all the time she was accepting donations she never once built a hospital with the money. She never once offered any kind of medical aid to the dying people who came to her for help. She spent it all building fucking convents and spreading the good old word of Catholicism to every corner of the globe and giving people "Catholic deaths". It's utterly sick. The people who came to her whorehouse in Calcutta were left to die. I've heard of women like the one you talk about who went there to help and watched people, who could easily have been saved with even basic medical treatment, die in front of them. Women who told her that these people weren't beyond help and were told not to interfere with God's Will. She took hundreds of millions of dollars from the likes Charles Keating and the Duvaliers of Haiti. Money that was PROVEN to have been stolen from the poor. Did she ever give a penny of it back when she was presented with that fact? Did she fuck. There aren't words that could describe the hatred I have for this woman. She was a fundamentalist, mass-murdering, cunt. That's what a fucking saint is in the Catholic church. Makes me sick.

    Regarding Heliocentrism, you're confusing Da Vinci with Nicolaus Copernicus, who wasn't even the first to point out that the Earth orbits the Sun. He was just the first one that was widely listened to in Western culture. Also, there was nothing dangerous about studying cadavers. It wasn't illegal to dissect the bodies of criminals in Renaissance Florence. I generally agree with the rest of what you say. He was a fucking legend.

    Doppelmonger: One who reproduces and distributes the work of another without authorization and for monetary profit. Derived from a combination of the Doppel [German double] and the word Monger [Middle English mongere, from Old English mangere, from Latin mango, dealer in slaves, probably of Greek origin.] Synonyms: pirate, bootlegger I thought everyone knew that.

    Let that be an end to it, fuckwits.

    Bad use of the hypothetical there. It definitely will go scarlet from fucking my hand.

    I'd fuck her until my cock was a nerveless stump with blood and puss dripping from it. I'd be in horrendous pain, but I wouldn't be able to stop. Crying, wailing in pain. But I'd keep going.

    It's almost certainly a man. Sad to say, but I don't think there's a woman on the planet that would like this. Internet wumming is the realm of men. More men are pathetic, lifeless, lonely, thick cunts than women. Women have tits and a fanny. They need never be lonely.

    As much as I agree about Christina Hendricks (I would give just about anything for a night with that woman) she isn't a ginger. She regularly dyes her hair and has done so since she was a teen. She is a natural blonde. EDIT: And Barney_Rubble have a fucking look at yourself. This thread was gold until you started posting munters.

    I saw this thread title from the forum index page and knew it would be a simon thread.

    I think Charlie Adam got a couple of knocks last season and tbh I never even noticed. So it's a slightly bigger problem.

    All that is being reported is that he is out of the match on Tuesday because of this injury. There is nothing yet to say he wont be fit for the weekend. And if he isn't, we've got a cracking little player who played plenty of games for Sunderland at CM in Henderson who can play there in his place.

    Exactly! What the fuck? World Cup Semi-finalists. Copa America winners. No shirts anywhere!

    What an absolute uber cunt of a shit cunt arsehole referee. I swear to god the man should be given his P45 before he gets to the refs changing room. That was an utterly shocking display from him, not just in the penalty decisions but all day. He was a useless shitbag of a fucking waster cunt. We probably wouldn't have qualified anyway, but to be robbed of the chance like that is out-fucking-rageous.
  20. Steve Holt
    Referee cunt.
  21. Steve Holt
    Diving fucking cunt.

    I don't think I've ever seen something as ridiculously stupid and funny as this in my life. What the fuck were the BBC thinking? BBC Sport - Football Forum - MOTD3 Here's a review of this car-crash from Surreal Football as well. Match of the Day 3

    Meireles wanted out. I don't want anyone who wants out.

    I didn't take it badly man. You can see from how they conduct themselves that all they care about is what is happening now. There is no attempt to set up for the future, because as far as Abramovich is concerned he'll always have the money to spend. But people thinking the likes of Chelsea and City will be near impossible to keep up with don't need to worry about money. We'll have plenty and it wont be nearly as important as how the club is set up and who is running it. I believe we're very nearly set up for years to come with only a signing or two (first team) needed each year. We'll see if I'm right or wrong during the course of this season.
