Thanks John, I'll get it off Ted next week. Great goal by the way - Xabi would have been proud of that.

Cracker game tonight by the way.

Lads, me and Paul forgot to pick up the yellow champions league ball after the game. Can who ever took it home keep hold of it til next thursday - Ta.

Can't believe people think Jamie gets his place in the team just because he 'gives his all'. For me Jamie is still up there with the best centre backs in Europe. Ferguson and Wenger would have Jamie in their teams week in week out - no question. When Jamie is allowed to concentrate on his own game then he reigns supreme, it's only when he has people around him who he can't trust that the odd mistake creeps in and 99% of the time it's because he's anticipating somebody else making a fuck up. Until we have two young centre backs of Hyppia/Carras standard then for the immediate future it's Jamie plus A.N. Other (preferably Agger - when fit). No sentimentality, just my point of view, as like many I believe a centre back should be on our shopping list this summer unless Kenny thinks that Kelly can make the step up this season.

1) Dave U 2) Pierre 3) BDD 4) Dunce 5) Ged 6) ted (thinking he is Bane like a right geek) 7) hendy 8] Ted's Ste 9) Grazy 10) Algeo 11) John G 12) Nige 13) Ian Pretty sure Alex is playin tomorrow too - said he was back from Ireland today.

Where do you start with this twat. Through no fault of his own he ended up with a Liverpool shirt on his back. Like a number of other 'free' transfers he should never ever, fucking ever, been allowed that honour. From the first moment I saw him the only reasonable conclusion you could possibly draw was - what the fuck? At least some poor players can look like a footballer but he just looked like an American who was tossed a football for the first time in his life. If he'd have picked the ball up and took a bite it wouldn't have been any odder than watching the cunt with a ball at his feet. Please go, no fuss or letter of appreciation to the fans, just go quietly and gently shut the door.

I was convinced that it was uneven sides and that we only had seven but when I spoke to Ian last night he told me it was even sides and that we just got a big tin of whoop ass opened on us. Can only remember touching the ball about 5 times and one of them was a volley from six yards out that ended up six yards over the bar. Got dizzy watching them play one-two's around us all night, the only bright spot was listening to Paul slag himself off every time he misplaced a pass - boss.

No disrespect to the American kid who's obviously had a cracker today but those youtube clips didn't do academy footy in the states any favours. The Thursday night lads would work it up them, no worries. In fact Dave would have a field day up front against some of that defending. On a brighter note some of the academy talent coming through looks ace and for the first time in ages, it looks as though there is cause for genuine optimism - mainly because Frank & Kenny have opened doors and the civil war that fucked the karma up has ended.

Thats a great idea, but how about taking it one stage further and inventing a system were tubes attach to your testes and send the warm piss around your back and chest like a cental heating system. On a night out in the winter you could save your whizz until you left the bar. Imagine walking out the pub doors into the icey cold night and then hey presto, your as warm as toast. Surprised this hasn't already been invented for people climbing Everest and stuff.

Until we introduce summer footy for under 14's downwards the average British player will be technically inferior to southern europeans. How can you possibly play one touch footy and improve your technique when it's freezin cold, windy as fuck and raining sideways? All the best footy I can remember as a kid, was on the park in the summer - whether just messin round with the ball or asking other gangs of lads for a match. You had the opportunity to play on decent grass and try any flick or trick you wanted because you didn't have to worry about the ball getting blown off your toe or losing the feeling in your feet. The likes of Barnsey & Gascoigne had a god given talent that could never be coached or for that matter coached out of them. Regardless of any weather conditions they could do more with a tangerine at their feet than the majority of their peers put together. But my main point relates to the average British player who on balance has limited technical ability. Of course coaching plays a part but where do you start with that one when dildo's like Stuart Pearce get jobs? I know we used to produce loads of talented footballers in years gone by and have no idea why all of a sudden the average British player is so shit, but in order to improve standards I think summer footy would start the ball rolling.

Flying Pig has a fear of his golf ball landing on grass so quite reasonably he picks it up off the fairway and places it on top of a tee. He also manages to change white balls into yellow ones when they go into the trees. One more thing, he's never gone out of bounds once in his life, even though you witness the ball go 70 yards to the left and over the mobile phone mast. My main fear is loosing to the cheating bastard so I generally always say "a par" when he asks me what my score was for the hole.

Regardless of whether she gets the role or not, who gives a fuck? She made a decision to work for that rag and consequently is a cunt.

Yeah, agree with Funkster that Grazy was MOM - thought he swept up at the back and looked after the middle of the pitch all night. Couldn't believe Dave claimed that goal. I would have expected it from a blue - outrageous!

I think the money being talked about for Downing is too much but if he's one of Kenny's top targets and the owners are prepared to stump up the cash then sound. If it all turns to shit then at least there wont be any excuses. I remember before we signed Barnes in the summer of '87 that lots of people weren't keen but if there is one man to place our trust in then surely it's Kenny. I'm not trying to put Downing into Barnes' category by the way but Kenny knows what's required.

Requiem for a Dream 9/10 Watched it on DVD last weekend and still hasn't lost any of its super charged emotional grit over time - hits you straight in the ollies, right from the off. Great film and great music. Boss.
