Mr Brightside

Yeah, it's good, but it's a song I've heard so much that I find it hard to listen to anymore.

You'll note that a league is more than two or three teams.

That and Somebody told me are such a boss tracks.

Others, not so much.

I admit, the first album was catchy and had mindless fun to it, then after that they just become shit who thought they were hot shit.

You'll note that these two or three teams can thrash all teams in whatever league you deem better and top its table making it a "two or three teams" league.

You also need to note that those other teams you look at as "lesser" teams are thrashing other teams in EL on yearly bases.

Erghh, still trudging through Feast for Crows. Just want to get it over and done with so I can start DWD.

I really liked AFFC

 

[WJD]

I really liked AFFC

I'm enjoying Cersei/Jaime chapters but it doesn't feel like much is going on. Still not halfway, it's just very easy to put down and forget about at the moment.

I appreciated AFFC more after finishing ADWD. They complement each other well.

 

[The_Hitcher89]

Watching a Breaking Bad tribute video

I think I prefer it to The Wire.

 

[Arnie]

I want to re-read AFFC and ADWD.

Collapsed on my bed post-KFC watching the match.

 

[bobito]

2nd half of AFFC is much better then the 1st. That is probs half your problem

 

[KidA Seven]

Somebody pass the ball to Wilson ffs. This is probably the lowest amount of touches he's ever had in a game.

 

[WJD]

Aye, he's struggled. Think he needs to be more demanding out there; couple of times he could have been played in but for selfishness from his teammates - needs to start tearing some strips off.

Pereira has the frustrating knack of doing the hard things well and the simpler things... not so well.

This is pretty funny. The Shelvey description is certainly the best of the lot:

CM: JONJO SHELVEY
Shelvey's weirdness is perfectly typified by his performance against old club Liverpool this season. Before the match, he said he was going to treat it like any other game; keep his head down, not let the past get to him. By the end of it, he'd scored once (for Swansea), set up another two (for Liverpool) and then set up another (for Swansea). He spent most of the game panicking from box to box, like a spooked ostrich in a house of mirrors. His distribution veered between Zidane and Zombie Jesus. He has played terribly at points this season, yet has still managed to score one of its best goals.

He's a bizarre kind of player, an imposing yet erratic midfielder who for some reason wants to attack everyone and everything, like Yaya Toure with rabies. But at the same time he can appear stupidly delicate. He's capable of sublime skill and, during moments of obvious mental crisis – Shelvey is not very good at hiding these, at all – his teammates protect him like a haemophiliac prince. Plus he looks, in the words of a pal of mine, like "a friendly alien from Farscape".

Needless to say, he's a shoo-in for the VICE alternative team of the season. In fact, he's the fucking captain.

The Flani description is amazing.

A Pro Evo stalwart in a FIFA Street team.

 

[bjaelke]

I've done the simulation - feel free to place your bets.

 

[KidA Seven]

Horrible game for Wilson. Didn't get the ball and then to top it off gets injured.


Harrop in. He plays like Lawrence.

 

[Slizz]

Buttners description was the best.

 

[Walshy]

god damn what a miss.

 

[bjaelke]

Bijev ((

 

[ATF487]

Bijev cmon lad

 

[WJD]

We're 36 games into the season and I've only just found out N'Gog is at Swansea.

 

[Arnie]

Christ that's a miss that.

Wilson was fucking crap. No surprise there then.

Yep, quite good. Francois' cracked me up as well. It's a good read.

 

[KidA Seven]

Christ that's a miss that.

Wilson was fucking crap. No surprise there then.

Aye, disappeared all night.

Oh you're talking about James Wilson? I thought you were talking about that scrub benchwarmer tonight, Harry Wilson.

 

[Go_Ly_Dow]

odds on Hazard exiting Chelsea this summer?

 

[Arnie]

No I was talking about James Wilson. Manchester United's next great hope.

Not the 16 year old.

 

[Walshy]

No I was talking about James Wilson. Manchester United's next great hope.

Who has more international caps than Wilson will ever have.

 

[The_Hitcher89]

Tex looks like a cross between Xabi and Zac Efron

 

[The_Hitcher89]

Ben Amos is 24 years old :s

 

[Baconsaurus Rex]

What are you people even watching

 

[Walshy]

That goal was worthy of winning any game

 

[LabouredSubterfuge]

Great win.

Season continues to improve.

:')

 

[KidA Seven]

United beat Liverpool as expected.

 

[Wilbur]

Who has more international caps than Wilson will ever have.

And Ashley Young has more premier league medals than Steven Gerrard will ever have.

What's your point?

 

[KidA Seven]

What are you people even watching

U21 Semi final between United and Liverpool. Serious business.

 

[Vivalaraza]

:lol

Lollerpool u21's are rubbish

 

[LabouredSubterfuge]

Too obvious.

 

[Vivalaraza]

Too obvious.

I didn't even watch it.

Literally just got through the door.

But ours are not very good at all so if you've lost to them, at home, that's pretty grim.

We suffocated them with our shit football. United are an attacking black hole. Best defensive record in the u21s by far. Shit amount of goals scored.

 

[The_Joker]

Manuel Neuer has agreed an early contract extension, keeping him at the club until 30.06.2019!

the schickeria is thrilled!

 

[Sviatoslav]

They'll score more when Gahl sends Januzaj back there.

It would be pretty funny if we somehow retained this trophy.

I saw Lawrence got a new contract. He should have left, not gonna make it at United. Reckon he would have got a decent club. Now he's just gonna play for the reserves for a few months and stagnate again.

Shame Wilson got injured again. Probably no debut now

No we won't. We didn't score that much last season either. Our u21 coach Joyce is the master of defensive football.

 

[Elchele]

the schickeria is thrilled!

He says he wants to stay at the club forever. Can't wait for him to be the club president.

You ready for tomorrow?

 

[pulga]

Sergio Ramos is thrilled.

 

[LabouredSubterfuge]

So Tyson Gay's ban is back dated from the time of the test and is therefore able to compete from next month. Nice one.

 

[Sage00]

Dundee United have raised over £22k on a crowd fund to give the underprivileged free tickets to the Scottish Cup final. https://www.justgiving.com/cupfinalfund

Looks like all SPFL supporters are chipping in, even St Johnstone fans who they're playing against!

Just astonishing the generosity from people who genuinely care about the good of the game in Scotland. Just now I saw a donation come in from a St. Johnstone fan FFS.

I have never been much of a fan of Celtic or their support for that matter but the contributions they have made are stunning. almost humbling. Countless other teams contributing as well of course..

Just goes to show how, as a Club, as a support, we've transcended the game with what this represents.

A massive THANK YOU to those non-arabs in order. Just unreal.

(Note: The Arabs their nickname)

Also a massive fuck you to the Scottish FA who were charging £35 for kids tickets.

 

[Randdalf]

I want to re-read AFFC and ADWD.

Collapsed on my bed post-KFC watching the match.

You should try the combined reading order, when you read both books at the same time. I'm going to do it preparation for TWOW.

http://boiledleather.com/post/25902554148/a-new-reader-friendly-combined-reading-order-for-a

Also, AFFC is a really good book, just don't read it like ASOS. I found it boring the first time round because I was rushing through the chapters, but if you do it slowly and take in all the detail it comes to life: I missed so much stuff the first time around.
