He had an iPhone plus so actually he was blocking my line on sight by sticking his fat mess in my face.

So take that back.

Also it's fun.

 

[kharma45]

Good start to the morning, everyone is getting an iPhone at work, either the 6 or 6 Plus.

Usually iPhone's were just for managers and above and all we got was a crappy Nokia dumbphone. Think I'll get the 6 Plus.

“Bobby had to come off, [he] started to get cramp,” Redknapp said. “The little boy Vargas looked a bit tired at times, he’s had a baby and looks like he hasn’t quite got the spring in his step he had a few weeks ago, so I end up sticking Niko Kranjcar up there on his own when Charlie got sent off. Niko gets hold of the ball – he can play up there at a pinch but he’s not a striker. You’ve got to have four or five strikers in the Premier League.”

Harry is so primed for January

Also, Bony is too good for Swans.

They're rolling them out across the central CS deps too. MacBook Air's as work laptops also.

Dat tax payers money.

 

[FlutterPuffs]

we're experts at dead things. Our whole league is basically a graveyard of has-beens, almost-beens, half-beens, never-beens and Evra.


and 1986 :lol oh you poor lil Farhat :lol

And yet you have two of the top midfielders in the world.

Just sell them to us already.

We'll give you Herrera.

And Fellaini.

We get either ThinkPad X1 Carbon's or the big fat ThinkPad's, the T440. Plenty of people would love Mac's but we've so much software built for Windows it's not really feasible at present.

I thought goverment would've been the same too, with lots of legacy software that'll only work on Windows.

 

[Slizz]

Just getting home from a night of joy after working 6 out of 7 days this week. Probably going to wake up an hour before kickoff tomorrow. Should be good. Praise Wilson.

Wenger close

Ramsey world class

It's going to be a big problem, they just haven't thought it through like most things!

We can pick that Lenovothingymajig too. Will pick that if I get the choice.

Both Apple and Lenovo have picked up two big clients then!

Villa are now above Everton. The Europa League really is a curse.

Kovacic: ‘We’re not a great team’

'we're not a team worthy of the first three places.'

 

[KidJr]

Hi Guys, what I miss? I was in Marrakech for the past week, really cool place once you get past the aggressive borderline confrontational townsfolk in the main markets. Weather was better than England but not quite as hot as I was hoping but nice enough. A good experience but wouldnt be in a rush to go back. Almost totaled my quad bike thinking I was stunt man when on a desert trek, gf thought it was pretty funny as she didnt see the accident but just saw me running after a manless quad bike. Still sore.

I saw Aguero's goal last Wednesday that looked fantastic. I walked into the bar where I was staying on Saturday and was delightfully surprised to see football on, saw Arseanl where down 3-2 and walked out.

I still want to give Wenger more time but he's really trying my patience. Chambers getting sent off I'm assuming really fucked us up?

Messi's second goal yday seemed unbelievably good. Havent seen it proper though (just snippets on twitter).

Pre-Alpha or not, the Uncharted reveal was a disappointment for me, havent watched hi res footage as yet but what happened to that initial trailer man. I'm sure it'll get better but was just a bit taken a back by the feeling of... is this it? Gameplay looks fun though.

How was masterchef for anyone who caught it?

The ThinkPad's are hardy enough laptops, I dread to think how a Mac would respond to various drinks being spilled over them.

Look at this, Usho. Send Paulinho to Inter and liberate Kovacic.

 

[Zabojnik]

Caceres, our best defender, has been out for 2 months now. It is a minor injury, they said. He'll be back after two weeks at most, they said. Same goes for Barzagli.

Marotta pls.

Nah. Gotta capitalise on Southampton's injuries and the results from Saturday.

We're going to draw Arsenal again.

 

[Vivalaraza]

No way m8. Have to win when your rivals slip up. Saints are weakened too.

Even so, too many United fans are happy to "take draws" in these toughish games now. Not good enough - team has to be good enough to get the result. This week and next.

[Vivalaraza]

Who?

Christ I'm out of it at the moment.

Angel Gomes. 14 year old Brazilian-cum-Manc- foetus.

His pops played for Salford City back in the 90's or some shit.

He's got the samba skills and salfordian scally all in one. Magic.

Attempt to make them seem important.

Small club syndrome.

 

[LabouredSubterfuge]

I wonder what their excuse will be when they still can't produce any youth talent of note?
