Cheers for the answers fellas.
I'm definitely doing something wrong!
£10 a month gets me this:
Day off tomorrow so I'm definitely gonna have a scout around and switch.
Sky are shit anyway so would've ended up doing it sooner or later.
I'll give Virgin and BT a ring to see how their service is in my area

Mad Men fans, (I'll spoiler in case anybody hasn't watched season 5 yet)
Pete Campbell getting his bag rolled by Lane Pryce. Hilarious! Pete really does annoy me the wee knob.
damn I am jealous, I pay like 65$ a month for 20-30mb if I am lucky.
Who?
"I’m happy with those who have arrived, but there is still work to be done. /striker "
I hope Marotta is listening.
I'd love to be on your back, Arnie.
Am I doing it right Wilbury?

This past Euro it didn't seem he was as much a JT as usual, but personally, I find most people either underrate him or overrate him. He is still one of the best defensive midfielders playing right now, but I wouldn't necessarily say he is the absolute best. He is still young though, so he has time to improve.

definitely a level up from that crap in dortmund.
Transfer muppetry gwaning:
West Ham have bid 15m for Carroll.
Newcastle have bid 13m.
Who will win? YOU DECIDE.
In all reality, it will most likely be Newcastle.
1. Who the fuck wants to play for West Ham unless you want an STD (or have one and need fellow infected to relate to).
2. Newcastle like to offer cash up front (the whole fee usually) for purchases which is always tempting for clubs on the receiving end. Dunno if West Ham do that but see number 1.
3. See number 1 anyway.
/transfer muppetry
In all realism, Newcastle have said they are in no rush to complete any deal for him and I doubt Liverpool will sell for less than 15m anyway. There's still a good chance Carroll won't go anywhere until January at least, I think. Who knows how he would perform if given the first half of next season.

One of the journos said Newcastle's offer included LFC still paying 50% of his wages for the loan year.
Piss take of an offer really.

Yeah, not cool. 80k Carroll is on which he most certainly wouldn't get here if he does join permanently. Still, Carroll wants to go to Newcastle anyway so he'd probably be willing to take a cut.
It's a joke. Give us £15 million and you can have him, for me. In this current market we can buy a far better player for our system than Andy Carroll for £15 million.

Andy Carroll is on 80k a week? Woah, that was a big splurge from Liverpool. I thought he'd be on 50k or something similar. If that is true Liverpool will do well to get rid of him. I seriously think they're better off keeping him, hoping he can play a little bit like he did at the end of the season and then there should be enough interet for somebody to pay £10-£15m for him.
It seems like the decision has been made that he isn't part of the long term plan there anymore so it's just about maximising his appeal. Can't see anybody paying £15m for him right now.

It started out good but we kinda gave up on it during season 3. Canceled my season pass on DVR for this upcoming one.
So the Mirror are suggesting City will be the ones who ultimately sign Niang. I'm all for it. Will make FM wonderkid signing even easier!

If you believe everything you read in the papers. Or on twitter. We don't have that sort of cash to splash around on any one player, nor pay his ridiculous wages, and if we are in for Carroll it will probably be a loan at half wages or nothing, unless the Daves want to further dip into their personal fortunes.

Hah! That seems a little misguided in this instance since City haven't spent a dime on any transfers yet while Spurs have splashed the cash.
Apparently Mick McCarthy is set to become the Nottingham Forest manager. They were meant to have a friendly versus my hometown team (Orlando City) this week but their US tour was canceled due to the management change.
Kyoufu and co will be happy to hear that Vurnon Anita is apparently pressuring Ajax to sell him to Newcastle.
Might be a good move for him. Who knows what he caught during his binging at music festivals!
Ok ok ok ok I'll stop with the childish remarks.
In other news, I've finished work. Feels like it was only 2 hours that it was 8am. Damn this week will go so fast. Perfect as TDKR this Friday!
Friendly in 40 minutes. Feels good to watch club football again.
Barton won't play in lower leagues though.

The best thing for Barton is for him to go away, disappear off the Premier League radar, boss the Championship with a team like Wednesday, earn a load of fan support and help them get up to the Prem.

City snatching from our hands again? He was training with us for the last few days too.
I think they're trying to get in the Guinness book of records for causing the largest simultaneous emotional breakdown. It's starting to get to me now.

This was one of Suso's poorer performances. Looked really fatigued.
Well he should probably consider it. He's running out of Premier League clubs to take a chance on him. He's pretty much shit on his base level as it is as far as the Premier League is concerned. What with managing to find a club desperate enough and with more money than sense to take him on in the first place, and somehow managing to upset them at the end as well.
Yep, his well has surely run dry as far as the top flight is concerned. But if he wants to use a club to rebuild his career and reputation then he can fuck off and do it elsewhere. He'll fit in well at Elland Road.
noooo Niang

Thanks man, glad to have you on board
chelsea bought marko marin
I hope he doesn't suck man :[ He's only our second signing of the new season
No Cisse : [
I've heard we're interested but I guarantee you now there's no way we'd pay over £10 million for a player with a year to run on his contract. Mark my words, those ships have sailed.

Totally agree, as soon as a player makes demands like this it's time to go.
We need get rid of them soon though, replacements need to be bought and ingratiated into the squad in time.
