Just had a pigeon commit suicide on my office window. Scared the shit out of me and has left a rather fetching bloody smear as it slid down to the ground like Wile E. Coyote.

    People who think that Johnny Cash was the only good country artist. People who couldn't name any other country artist. People who think country music is all shit. People who use the term "country and western".   Conrad Twitty - and sorry Moonman - but its all gash. EDIT - and now I've seen Hogso has written Dolly Parton. She's a **** good songwriter I'll give her that.

Can you do that then?! EDIT Yes of course you can - wood in furnace - carcoal - burn that.

    Me too. Usually find shit loads of it.... 9/10 dont even need to dig, but yesterday... nothing. Nada.

2 hours spent on a new game on my Nexus 7 last night. Not one single solirary stinking piece of coal. No one. FFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

Personally thought it was good what you expect from Top Gear really - a couple of knob jokes, a pre-arranged "race," some shit car technology "news" - if you tune in week on week expecting something ground breaking or different you WILL be disappointed. Just embrace it for what it is. Its hugely popular and gets flogged all round the world for £m's. It ain't going to change.

So in an attempt to build bridges he exposes WBA to an investigation for signing him without permission? **** hell.

Mrs E did and got about £600 from her credit card. I've never had PPI so never had to claim. Try and haggle the fee down - Mrs E paid 25% of her "winnings" to the company - I took umbridge it can't be that hard to do it yourself EDIT - What Coda said.

    Bent is a goal scorer pure and simple, our team with Young, Milner and Downing would have been perfect for him loads of options and a decent supply line. Milner's work rate alone would compensate for Darren's laziness. He hasn't gotten any worse as a player, but the way we play now compared to then highlights his flaws when put next to a player like Benteke. He's got to go - not because he's terrible but because he doesn't belong here anymore.

Welcome Yacouba.

    that we may be the verge of signing someone from France and a centre back

Yup another bumming. The Toffees to win by 3 clear goals.

Why the **** do we need Kenwyne Jones? Seriously? If that happens I will be calling for Lambert to go. We need a midfield. We already have one beast of a striker in Benteke. Why buy an older less good one?

That could just mean us flogging Darren Bent. Don't mean shit.

^^ That, but replace raisins with cardamon pods.

Mourinho will bury the hatchet with Uncle Roman and be back at the Bridge in the summer. New contracts for Fat Frank and Honest John with a record breaking offer for Ronaldo to come back to England.

I always try to give the manager the benefit of the doubt - even McLeish. Lambert cocked up last night. As soon as Weimann and Gabby came on we were a different team, thats fine, people make mistakes. The worry from me was the fact he didn't recognise it afterwards. To say there was nothing wrong with the system it just "wasn't happening" is bonkers. Improvements are needed and fast. Can he deliever the 7 wins we need? I doubt it should we sack him - no.

Android Chrome (Nexus 7 and SGS3) Microsoft IE 2003 Cookies eaten and the cache clear.

Time for my prediction of a bumming. A good old fashioned prison style arse rape. Newcastle to win by 3 clear goals.

Neither side makes much effort to understand the other tbh.

I thought the point of rooting was to remove bloatware and play with "pure" android. If you've already got a Nexus phone whats the point in rooting?

Really interesting piece on 5Live last night about Jose and his methods as part of a wider psychology and psychometric testing discussion in football. He gives his players a dossier and a DVD on their direct opponent before every game with an overview of what they expect that player to do eg. "loses fitness in 65th minute onwards" "more likely to play the long ball if 1-0 down" Whatever the value you place on this stuff - as a player if you see what was written happening infront of you - the confidence that must bring you is immeasurable. The other interesting point was the first day of preseason training traditionally at Chelsea was a 10mile run. Jose's first day he gives all the players a ball and they do ball work up until lunch. Lunch comes and goes and again they are doing work with the ball - no fitness or running stuff. Terry then asked Jose what was going on because they hadn't done any running. Jose said "I would not ask a concert pianist to run round his piano before a performance. You are footballers. We work with the ball." Easy to see how they won the title two years running really isn't it? (Plus a shit load of Roubles obviously)

61 with 2mins 43 left on the clock.

No he just did it 5 years after the team won the European Cup instead. FFS - revisionism at its finest.

Anyone else noticed images/media/other stuff not being shown on the forum? You get the post but a blank space - no error icon or message. When its quoted you just get a the blank space too. Tried it at home and at work and on mobile but the same result?
