Better remember this one when he signs for us again after we finish mid table in a few years!

I smiled and had a quiet (but still out loud) laugh at this, well done.

If he came in and bagged 15 goals from midfield and got a number of assists too, only to go back to Madrid, would you really complain that he took a space that Hesketh (same sort of position) wouldnt have been as effective in?! (Plus Hesketh could also go out on loan himself)

and i'll just leave this here: http://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2015/jun/07/youtube-texas-police-officer-pool-party-arrests A Texas police officer has been suspended after video posted online showed him breaking up a pool party in an extremely aggressive manner, including drawing his gun. On Friday, units from the McKinney police department were called to the party, at Craig Ranch North Community Pool in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, over reports of a fight. Police said the incident involved “multiple juveniles at the location, who do not live in the area or have permission to be there, refusing to leave”. On Sunday, McKinney police chief Greg Conley spoke to reporters about what followed. “Several concerns about the conduct of one of the officers at the scene have been raised,” local ABC affiliate WFAA8 reported him as saying. “The McKinney police department is committed to treating all persons fairly under the law. We are committed to preserving the peace and safety of our community for all our citizens.” Conley did not name the officer in question, who was not named when his suspension was announced. According to WFAA8, Conley added: “A 14-year-old female was temporarily detained by one of the officers. She was ultimately released to her parents.” Video posted to YouTube on Saturday shows one officer sprinting past the camera, falling and losing his flashlight, then running again. Teenagers are seen returning the flashlight to another officer, who responds politely, before the first officer returns and shouts: “On the ground! I told you to stay! Get your asses on the ground. I told you to stay!” The officer is then seen forcing a number of teenagers to lie on a grass verge and a sidewalk and telling others to “get your ass out of here”. Some teenagers are handcuffed. Advertisement One teenager can be heard saying: “Sir, we just came from a birthday party, please.” Another says: “Officer, I can’t find my bag.” The officer replies: “I don’t care, sit down.” The officer is then shown talking to teenagers on the ground. “Don’t make me run round here with 30 kinds of ****ing gear on in the sun,” he says, “because you want to screw around out here.” He then forces a group of bystanders to leave. One, a girl, does not comply and the officer wrestles her to the ground. When other teenagers surround him to remonstrate, he draws his gun. Two other officers move to restrain him, and the officer re-holsters the weapon. He then slams the girl back to the ground, shouting: “On your face!” As the officer appears to sit on the girl to keep her subdued, hectoring her all the while, a voice, possibly that of the person filming the incident, says the officer pulled a gun on the girl. “No I didn’t,” he says, pointing at the camera. “Now get your butts outta here.” The officer is later shown in close-up, lecturing two boys who are sitting on the ground. “You just did what everybody else did,” he says, “and what everybody else did was illegal. You did it and you got caught. Now you’re sitting here paying for it. “I asked y’all to sit,” he adds, “you didn’t and you became a part of the mob. You could’ve been the guys that were doing right and you weren’t, so now you’re sitting here in trouble.” The officer in question is white; most of the teenagers on the video are African American. A number of white men in civilian clothes are also shown. The poster of the YouTube video, named on the site as Brandon Brooks, wrote: “A fight between a mom and a girl broke out and when the cops showed up everyone ran, including the people who didn’t do anything. So the cops just started putting everyone on the ground and in handcuffs for no reason. This kind of force is uncalled for especially on children and innocent bystanders.” As press interest in the video increased the mayor of McKinney, Brian Loughmiller, issued a statement. He said: “Having seen the YouTube video, I am disturbed and concerned by the incident and actions depicted in the video. “Our expectation as a city council is that our police department and other departments will act professionally and with appropriate restraint relative to the situation they are faced with.”

I can agree with the Martin Cranie bit, met him and Lloyd James and both were some of the biggest w@nkers i've met, full ofthemselves because they were at saints academy. On the other hand, Bale and Walcott who i met on a handful of occasions at my college when they were around 16 years old were nice lads. And to Bales credit I bumped into him a couple of years later still recognized me which was nice at the time! Other celeb's... I spoke to Dale Winton on the phone with my job a year or so ago, really nice guy to talk to... as soon as i picked up the phone and heard his voice my initial thought was "this guy sounds like dale winton" then found out it was very clearly him a minute later.

Rule 1?

Anything anyone can recall from that world cup that seemed dodgy? I was only about 13 at the time so can only really remember how wierd ronaldinhios goal against seaman was for us!

Italy? (Osvaldo, Balotelli, Borini have had call ups in the past. I remember Osvaldo's being surprising at the time with us.)

Wow thought villa would give us a tough game with how sherwood rejuvinated them of late. Couldnt have been more delightfully wrong!

I think people are reading too much into the wallpaper thing, but hey its all speculation!

Guess we'll see pretty soon in any case!

Basically Daniel Levy and Poch's thinking in a nutshell.

Rob green if QPR go down? He's been pretty decent despite the handicap of having QPR's defence in front of him & made the best save ive seen at SMS. He would be decent for a year.

If only we signed a left wing back called Marx or Stalin it would be complete!

I dont see why people have to be bellends over 2 or 3 accounts, a lot of people find it easy enough to be a spazcock on just the one account.

I was knackered/hungover but keeping up with this game online... I fell asleep with it still at 1-1 not because the game was pants but i was just out of it. Anyway I woke up a couple of hours later, after the game had finished not realising that i slept through most of it. I was very dissapointed and surprised after watching MOTD and saw them grab a winner!

Wouldnt have thought dubai phil had multiple log ons, most people on here with multiple usernames do it for shyte "bantz" and I wouldnt have put him into that category of poster.

One of the most worrying people to not be sectioned i've seen on here.

I can't understand half of what you type, I've tried but it really makes my head hurt. I don't think it's a nationality type language barrier though (for example, I can understand Hamilton perfectly well.) I think it's maybe more of an IQ related language barrier. Did you ever sniff or drink white-spirit as a kid? Just out of curiosity.

Clynes looked pretty average to poor in the england games he's played in so far. So bad walkers looked slightly better so perhaps United may look at him instead (please)

shall i book that taxi?

That's what I did, thought it was unreasonably busy going onto the northam from town, realised I had 20 minutes till the next train and got on that. saved loads of time

In saying all this its very odd Bertrand has been ignored but also that Cresswell from West Ham has also been overlooked in favour of Rose, a far better player than him in my opinion! (Cresswell is english right!?)

So if Kelvin plays against Everton, he will become our oldest ever player. (Behind Grobbelar by 12 days currently)
