I'm not being that harsh on him, I want him to get a job. I want to see how he does without Adebayor and Eriksen. He certainly won't be able to play the deranged 442 he played with us, I'm curious to see whether he can build a team that can defend.

Pulis may not get the wba job over Sherwood as Pulis carries a lot of demands where he goes. Maybe wba not interested in Pulis' demands? I'm hopeful of Sherwood getting the wba job as he done a good enough job at Spurs to deserve a decent go at another club.

I don't think enough has been said about El Shaarawy destroying Madrid. The Future is back.
A friendly...

@JamesPearceEcho: Rodgers: "There won't be much if any transfer activity from us during the January transfer window." #LFC
@JamesPearceEcho: Rodgers on Sturridge: "He will be back here to finalise rehab in early Jan. He should be back playing mid to late Jan."
The dream is dead. At least we won't be spending £23m on Berahino.

Why fix what isn't broke, or indeed what is broke but you don't want to accept.
- dark times
- glides over the surface
- 'derby' when two teams vaguely near each other play
- Robbie Savage
- Jeff Stelling on Sky. YES SKY, complaining about there not being enough 3'clock kick offs in the FA Cup. Nearly died laughing
- every lower league #shit team is attended by four people and is 22 cave man booting it into the stratosphere and back. Only prem games are propa
- probably dark times again
- my club is bigger than your club. Yawn.
bonus round
- football clubs are a business and nothing more
- who really cares if a football player is gay or not.
- he is really good on FIFA/FM
Reason I rag on Sherwood is he is the perfect example of all that is wrong with management trajectories in this dear nation of ours. Instead of choosing from up and coming managers who have cut their teeth actually fucking managing other clubs, prem clubs seems to decide on a ever decreasing pool of british managers like Sherwood who get shunted into a job from picking up bibs or coaching the U12s. Like Warnock/Alan Irvine will be in the running for the next Prem job over Howe or Rowett and the like.

The FA yet again proving that they are a joke by banning poor pubeless Jonjo Shelvey and letting scum like Sterling off. They supposedly brought in a rule for incidents like these so players can still be banned for violent conduct even if the officials seen it. It just goes to show that there is no consistency at all with these retrospective bans and the worst thing is that no one is surprised. You got Fellaini elbowing everyone and spitting on Aguero. No bans. Wilshere trying to headbutt him. No ban. Charlie Adam trying to break everyone's ankles. No ban. Certain types of player seem to just get away with it.

As if Alan Irvine will ever manage in the premier league again. More likely that we find out who Pepe Mel was.
That's why he irritates me. In terms of managing senior players he's got as much experience as Alan Irvine.
He needs to work his way up the ladder like everyone else. His lack of experience with transfers, man-management, media duties, it's all obvious and will hinder him in the PL.
Same reason that people saying Giggs should get it is mental, innit. I mean, assistant manager at a club like United is a big job, and an important one (you only have to hear Fergie talk about McClaren or Queiroz to know that), but it isn't management.
I think Neville will have no qualms with dropping into a lower league to manage (or conversely, he takes the England job after Hodgson!), but I can't see it with Giggs. He's likely our next manager.

Media training is easy. Either send your assistant or storm out every time.

Rumours about Huddlestone to Palace. Would he really leave Hull already?
And:
"Incoming Crystal Palace manager Alan Pardew is keen on Swansea midfielder Jonjo Shelvey."
Not sure that I'm keen on Shelvey. One nutcase at a time please Palace. Let Pardiola settle first.

I haven't played any of those. I plan on playing your number one though, fear not.
I'm not a cultured gamer.

I'm enjoying my time with Dragon Age Inquisition far more than I thought I would.
Have they commented on this? I suppose you could say Raheem's was provoked, they were at it all night, still no excuse though.
Top 5 Brentonisms:
1.Ive always said that you can live without water for many days, but you cant live for a second without hope.
2.We play with 11 men, other teams play with 10 men and a goalkeeper.
3."Look at Tottenham. If you spend more than £100million, you expect to be challenging for the league."
4. The problem with being a manager is its like trying to build an aircraft while it is flying.
5. Joe Allen is one of the most courageous players Ive seen."
That is... incredible.
Spectacular. Both of you's.
were you born in 99?
I was a strange kid to be honest. My dad has been doing some buying and selling of games for over 10 years now. So I've always had access to all consoles up till current gen. I used to play on the SNES for some time as a kid. DKC 2 is my favourite game. I also spend some time on the PS1 with the Crash Bandicoot games, which I also consider amongst my favourite. Then on the PS2 I probably only played Jak & Daxter + Ratchet & Clank. Even though I had a NGC and PS2 in my room I hardly ever used them. Instead I bought my own gameboy and saved up to buy games for that with my own money. Meanwhile all those games were just lying around like a free games library and I didn't really use it
I've been getting much more into console gaming since the 360. At that point I had a bunch of friends who also had a 360 so we could do online multiplayer. And that got me more into gaming.
My new year resolution is to get my new passport sorted so I don't get refused entry back to the UK like I nearly did in February. My annual trip to San Francisco is coming up and I don't want to be stranded in the US and live out the rest of my days as Barney Gumble in a foreign land.
and to get a new phone yes

Make sure you just wikipedia Gaming in 98. So many great games came out in that year.
SNES gaming might still be my favourite era. Just playing for fun. No trophies or patches, plus any problem was solved by a blow on a cartridge.
Neither do I.

How could you ban that face?
Raheezus is above the law.
I have to hope the quote about us not doing much in January is bullshit. We definitely need a striker and a keeper. Nice to get more solid info on Studge though, even if it was originally supposed to be early January iirc.
Until blowing didn't do the trick and your game was just broke :/
I've played some iconic games (I think). Spend a lot of time on Ghosts and Goblins on the NES. Also played Lost Vikings on the SNES. Golden Eye and Perfect Dark on the N64 were great. But I wasn't big on Zelda back then. I should have played that in my childhood. I also had the Mario All Stars casette with the classic Mario games on it. Which were amazing games to me. And Yoshi's Island on the SNES.
Quite a lot of Nintendo stuff actually. Up till I got to know Crash Bandicoot of course.
EDIT
Also Spyro <3
They say Pulis will have full control over transfers, but it's probably just PR speak and they'll remain with their model.
Not to mention they'd be barmy to abandon it when Pulis record on transfers is terrible.
Besides, they probably do all kinds of small things for the club that you never really hear about, from your basic footballing administration to managing youth and reserve teams.
What is it, out of morbid curiosity?
That's... not as dreadful as I thought.
What do you reckon the chances of some decent prices on a Wii U are tomorrow m8LADS?
I was going to go up Argos and get the Basic today but waiting another day for a potential deal's not gonna hurt.
Plus Boomerang have sent Sonic Lost World which will be here on Friday, decent timing. Pls don't be shit
