hear hear Loz.

and chip butties

The Scallies had plenty of chances, I watched the whole game last night - it was worth 90 minutes just to see the end! They just screwed up in front of goal. End of.

their site is hilarious, the spelling atrocious. They are certainly not happy bunnies tonight

a joyful day, JFH with a great goal.

Alex for me too

only highlight of the game was Riley getting knocked down.

just had what I think is a brilliant idea, why not play the Carling Cup games abroad, no home advantage for either team, they could cherry pick the round to play abroad, and no one would really care!

how the hell do they work out who deserves the extra points for playing these extra games?? And more games is ridiculous. and, if your home game against another club is the one to be played abroad, do the fans get the cost of that ticket back in their season ticket. What about losing home advantage? Can you imagine a season like this, in the League Cup final, FA cup quarters and semis, CL next rounds or semis, 3rd or 1st in the League, African Nations, qualifiers for WC or European Champs and then a quick trip to LA to play a league game? Fricking crazy.

hmm what do you think, he's going as Keegan's No.2 big compensation package to Leeds.

no complaints.

call me a skeptic but I always think these draws are fixed just a leetle bit! I think the top 4 clubs will be kept away from each other. think the draw is at noon tomorrow

Bluebeard and Loz, you both have great music tastes. I went to see It's a Beautiful Day in September here in Florida. Actually it was billed as the music of It's a Beautiful Day as David LaFlame is still in litigatioin over the band's name. They were a band I wished I had been able to see in the late 60s and whilst this time around Patti Santos and the original Linda Laflame are gone to that great music world in the sky, just sitting outside in the pouring rain listening to White Bird and Hot Summer's Day etc was fricking fantastic, LaFlame still amazing on violin. At the same gig was Big Brother and the Holding Co without JJ, QMS and lastly Jefferson Starship without Grace. A blast from the past nonetheless. If I could stretch Brian's decade a bit I would probably go 66-76 so I could have all the bands and favourite albums with me.

70s for me, plenty of 60s bands still making fine music such as the Dead, Airplane, CSN and of course Y, Joni, Traffic, Zep, and then the 70s bands coming through, Dire Straights, punk, plenty of good stuff.

add Pete Doherty to this

I have the misfortune of having to watch Fox Soccer (bleh) or ESPN. I hate the American expressions for our game. Extra time = overtime wings = sidelines offence and deeeeeefence - yuk they have no idea who the players are they always called penalties, penalty kicks if we are winning 1 nil they say 1 oh a nil nil draw is oh oh and tied and they put the teams round the wrong way so if we are at home we are listed as second on their TV schedules and sometimes on TV depending on who has filmed the game

a caller to Talksh*t said, 'ok he's had enough time already, he needs to go'.

just beat ya to it with the announcement

is Talksh*te having us on??? apparently it's true

the Telegraph reported that Ramos thought the game was evenly matched. Apparently this was translated as a load of twaddle by the DT!!
