This is fucking awesome. Randomly happened across it by way of a Game of Thrones fanpage posting on Facebook. Best profile photo ever.

I am, can you imagine what is it like not getting a penalty in 4 months while your local rival gets really dubious calls, all in their favour, EVERY week? I'm not saying they should gift penalties to us, just decent refereeing and giving us what is right.
This has been going on for months, i wouldn't even care if it happened once in a while.
I know we're doing really bad lately but if Milan manages to win with a balotelli bullshit penalty at the 94th minute, journalists/commentators are like "GRANDE MILAN" "SUPER BALO" "ALLEGRI IS A GENIUS", meanwhile we draw with some midtable team with them scoring an offside goal with handball and a pen not given for us, we are the worst team in existence
actually, they say this shit even when we win
.
Balotelli went from being the biggest piece of shit of all time, to a saint and the "Future of Italy".

Milan might get more penalties because of a different play style. If you get a lot inside the box, chances are someone will get knocked down and you'll get a pk.

Inter, on the other hand, just goes around there, losing by 3 against Spurs lol

That's the difference.

Don't even understand what Kyoufu's trying to say. Trying to imply its boring to manage Man Utd on FM and likewise supporting them in real life? It certainly isn't boring supporting them :lol. Just nice having a bigger profile than wee north east clubs

Before i depart into Hula land.

Anyone follow Le Tiss on twitter and love how blunt he is?


“@rkyson99: @mattletiss7 why do you think you weren't given a fair crack in the England team? #askmatt #pleaseanswermyquestion” Too lazy

“@chrisberry27: @mattletiss7 do you think you would have done so well with the speed and athleticism of the current game? #askmatt” Yes

“@BenjaminParke: @mattletiss7 #askmatt can you sum up your career in 1 word?” Fun

Kills me.

Trying to watch the World Baseball Classic. I'm glad Mexico's winning, but this takes so freaking long. :/ Isn't there a curling World Cup somewhere?

I doubt anyone truly believes Balo is the future of anything. He is an overrated, self centered, pos and mostly everyone knows it. He's just riding a wave of hype at the moment as he is scoring goals and is a big transfer. Just wait until the barren spell comes and it will.

As for the penalty complaint. Generally balances out over the season and Inter are still right in the hunt so you should be a bit more upbeat. I'd gve my arm for Arsenal to be only 1 point of the CL spots rather than bloody 7 points.

Italians do, or at least that's what the media wants us to think, even when he blatanly dives they try to find silly excuses.

Penalties are usually balanced out with everyone but them lol, last year they complained for months about "Muntari's goal", which was the most blatant one, probably forgetting they were taking advantage of dat bullshit "Ibrahimovic (pen.)" every week.

We are at just 4 points with 1 game to play, i don't see us going too far though, half the team is injured, the other half can't run for more than 2 minutes. Only way we could get 3rd place is that if Napoli and Lazio fuck up.

I got the first season of Breaking Bad. I know absolutely nothing besides part of a random episode I saw at a friend's house (and I don't remember what season or what happened) and the premise, and since I'm usually pretty lackadaisical about avoiding spoilers that's impressive for me!

Looking forward to it.

How bad are these injuries to your players? Because your fate is in your hands but you have some hideous fixtures coming up. Games against Juventus, Napoli and Lazio from what I saw.

And if Italians really think Balo is the future then they don't have much of a future because unless there is some major turnaround from him he will be nothing more than average at best.
