  1. Sunday night please out of the two. Enjoy knowing the weekend's other scores before our match
  2. I went to the same school as his daughter and him many years earlier. She was a few years below me though and one day when I went back to the school as my brother had won a couple of awards at prize giving, lo and behold the guest speaker was Tony Fernandes. He gave a speech for about 20 minutes or so and it was the most insightful, well constructed, impressive and actually very funny speech I had ever heard. This is why I find it hard to believe that he runs the club in quite the way that he does and flogs twitter so much. I can assure you he's no mug having bought Air Asia for £500,000 by selling his only asset at the time, his house, and turning it into a global leader. But despite all this some of his behaviour is fairly puzzling.
  3. The language is called Catalan, treacle
  4. I am the resurrection - the stone roses
  5. I didn't use a map so lets say you can't do that either. If you think you'd give it a good shot then by all means try but when you get to about 10 left it is tormenting
  6. Give this a go. A mate and me just tried to name all 92 league clubs. I got 87. If you try it let us know how you get on. No prior research allowed and strict 30 minute window.
  7. Pretty embarrassing that that's on the BBC website. Makes us look like a right noddy club.
  8. Still too early in the season to be pouring over the results of these games. If Reading play say, Tottenham then of course you know who you want to win. But there's far too long left in this season to spunk or crap yourselves over a result in these games right now. The simple formula is 12 points available if you add up for each team. 2 draws and 8 are lost, 2 wins and 6 are lost. Looking solely at points injection then 2 draws is the only justifiably 'best' result for us tonight in my opinion.
  9. I agree with hypo. Thousands of people suffer from depression in the UK and not all of them kill themselves. Put another way he is a murderer of a father of two kids. Suicide is the ultimate act of cowardice in my opinion.
  10. You're incredibly stubborn considering you're arguing with those who have actually seen a paused split screen of the moment the ball was passed and it can be seen that he is onside. The camera angle wasn't from the half way line it was perhaps 5 yards out of check with Rodriguez's line. Once and for all, HE WAS ONSIDE.
  11. No. Struggling to care about this season. Would rather go on a long-term journey with NA than a series of short term appointments.
  12. Yea I agree with the majority, Fox had a good game tonight. Has been very poor at times this season but credit where its due and he did earn it tonight. One of the few better performances from our team.
  13. Don't talk ****. Would have been outrage around the football media as well as the majority of our support if that had happened.
  14. Why doesn't Lallana make more of that? A clear penalty... Never going to get given that away from home if you don't appeal
  15. Why oh why have those substitutions been made at a time when we are putting on consistent pressure. Leave it as it is! If it ain't broke don't fix it!
  16. Is this really happening? In what world is this funny? Am I being really slow and missing the joke or is everyone actually having a riot about some make-believe story of an arbitrary object going missing?
  17. Like I've always sort of respected the bloke, granted its a football forum that he's making himself out to be a legend on but he's put enough effort into his internet persona to sort of deserve it. However, that was the least funny piece of sh!t comedy I have ever wasted my time reading. Genuinely, that was f*cking dreadful.
  18. So does that mean that no team has ever conceded more than us at this stage of the season in the Prem now?
  19. Hate to say it, but why hasn't our exciting, fast new signing that loves to run at defenders done anything like that?
  20. 2012/13 season defensive cock up number 14 was that? Embarrassing...
  21. ****ing bored of this. This season will be ****. Can't wait to be back in a league where I enjoy supporting my football team.
  22. I find news like this so disappointing. I'm not old enough to harp back to 'the good old days' but have always enjoyed the authenticity of what is at its roots a working class game. All this **** about replacing programmes with digital versions (if that's what it is) just completely takes the soul out of football. It's not supposed to be a well-refined, efficient day out. Stopping by the programme seller on the way in is part of the experience. This digital, social-media obsessed age is really starting to leave me more and more bewildered by society these days. And I'm only 21.
  23. I dunno mate, I reckon we're better off starting with 11 then maybe take one off if things are going well
  24. Fair to say if you offered Burnley their player back and we got our money back, the majority of our fans would take that now.
  25. What's the story with our new Japanese CB? Is he injured?
