  1. Brilliant backheel, Zenit 2-1: Sergei Semak v Benfica | Football goal videos, highlights & clips - 101GG Zenit's second. Robinho with Milan's third.
  2. Barca up 2-1 at Leverkeusen after 78 minutes. But they do look vulnerable at the back. Should get interesting in the later stages. Hell, this round could get interesting if Leverkeusen take their chances. And if the officials let them play the GD game.
  3. Watched "Z" last night. French movie about a 1960s Greek political assasination. Very good movie. "The Three Colours": a loose trilogy based on the French "liberty, equality, fraternity". "The Bicycle Thief". An examination of post-war Italian socioeconomics. "Swept Away By A...." Another Italian movie, a comedy about class warfare and the relationship between the sexes.
  4. Burt Bacharach wrote quite a few. bj thomas - raindrop keep falling on my head - YouTube Willie Dixon wrote a lot of blues classics. Willie Nelson wrote quite a few country classics for others before starting to record on his own. Patsy Cline - Crazy - YouTube
  5. For me, the moment the FA kangaroo court decision came down FSG should have had a plan in place for what they would do. If they decided not to appeal, they had to release a comprehensive statement, draw a line under the entire matter, and make that clear to FA, press, players and management. That decision established the "truth". Even if it's not the truth. And everything that happened after than point would be viewed in terms of that "truth". So any defense offered would be seen as defending racism, any action taken would be seen as racially motivated. Even if it wasn't. They had to be fully prepared for a negative decision, and they didn't seem to have any sort of plan in place. And yes, I realize hind-sight is 20-20. But going forward, FSG has to have people in place who are prepared to deal with these things, quickly and aggressively.
  6. Great goal by Fletcher-Christian-St.John-Smith for Wolves. Nice build-up excellent turn and shot. Against WBA and the run of play to make it 1-1 at the half.
  7. I'm starting to understand what it means to be an LFC supporter: I went to work to get my mind off the football. As for the Scum and Ferguson and the press and the FA and the rest of them, they can all go fuck themselves. They wanted Luis, and by extension, LFC to kneel down. That's what they've wanted all along. Fuck 'em. But I do agree we shouldn't have taken the muddled middle road. Either accept the kangaroo court's decision and let it drop entirely, or fight it as far as as possible.
  8. Ladies and gentlemen, I now direct your attention to ring number 3.... Papers now reporting that Pearce allegedly racially abused Ince in 1994.
  9. Some of it is actually funny, but I couldn't resist.
  10. It's disappointing. Few things more compelling in sport than when they hit the mountains, and the pelleton starts to drop away. And it would be just as compelling if none of them doped. But they've always doped, and I'm sure they always will. Maybe they should take away all the money Contador made during the past 18 months? And fine him an equal amount if he wants to come back? I don't know. I guess it's a question of whether or not the drama out-weighs the disappointment.
  11. Chelsea have been shite from the start. And a man down since Webb came on. No surprise, really.
  12. Webb finally starting to come into the match with an endless stream of free kicks for the Scum.
  13. Was thinking the same thing. Look like a pick-up squad for a testimonial. Mata has it figured out though. Just loft it in high on De Gea and hope.
  14. I'd recommend "The Stand" by Steven King. A similar theme to "Swan Song". And "The Road" by Cormac McCarthy. Not supernatural in any sense, but it's a great book. Two ends of the "post-apocalypse road-trip" spectrum.
