    " Dad why has Mum chucked you out again ".........................is never an easy one

    I simply meant you would of thought a player of Vidic,s standing and experience would of been prepared for the fact Robben was going to be going past Evra a lot..................and he wasnt prepared at all.

    Im no tactical genius but i think sometimes we can delve too far into tactics......the reality is you are not going to stop one of the worlds great sides like Bayern Munich coming at you......but what you can do is defend correctly.......United did the hard work and got the goal without conceding first.....surely the first thing they had to do was then immediately get organised defensively knowing that Bayern now had to put it on them full force.....yet i thought Vidic was awful for a few of them goals he looked physically and mentally slow to react...............Im not sure you can blame Moye

    Totally agree.......all this bollocks you hear and see about supposedly tough hard men who can bash anyone up and aint scared of nobody......................and then you see a skinny little wretch like Geldoff who has more about him than most ........any man who has the guts and moral fibre to bring up kids alone deserves all the praise he gets,his own kids let alone someone elses as Geldoff has.............i cant stand him for what he started with all that Band Aid caper.......but as a man,credit where its due.

    I think next season will be the make or break for Moyes i cant see a club with the class of Utd binning a manager that quick......first season he,ll be given a break but if theres not big steps forward in the second season the clubs just too big to be patient.

    Working away from home is a young mans thing if you ask me,later on in life you dont have the carefree attitude and courage to take a chance like you do as a youngster......i spent a year travelling round America in my 20,s i had the time of my life.....ok getting punched in the face for a living isnt much fun but the experience of meeting different people through working away is much better than meeting different people travelling as a tourist as you compare similar lives giving you ideas to come back with......The hardworking hero attitude some folk have is complete nonsense not everyone ha

    Such a silly naive comment to make..............what is happy ?......material things ?...................money buys you nice things and puts you in a nice position........but without family/friendships/relationships you dont have happiness................. Its one of the oldest sayings in the book ... " The best things in life are free "

    Only 32..........come on Taz i thought you was a birdman No well in mate .... says a lot about the conditions you provide i suppose ......i,ll be happy with 2 never mind 32 !!

    Thats great news.....have faith in the upbringing you gave her mate shes obviously got the brains of her mother ... combined with the survival skills of her father she should do just fine .....as has been said with todays communications Japan is not as far away as it used to be,it might just as well be Scotland you still wouldnt be able to just trot along and protect her.................but i can understand your apprehension. A pal of mines son has got a job at Sony designing computer games he go,s out to Japan in a few months.....different worries with a boy id imagine but us being all

    Call me old fashioned but when it comes to a death im of the opinion that if you got nothing good to say then say nothing.......... Barely heard of the girl myself but any young life lost is a tragedy regardless of the situation.

    Went to a tribute today at my old club Repton,this time last year saw the first post match boxing fatality in the Uk this century......Michael Norgrove was a nice lad from a nice family who came into the sport late on and showed good promise winning the novice London aba,s before turning pro.........went into his 6th fight unbeaten but the fight was stopped in the last round and Mike was taken to hospital with a bleed on the brain and tragically died 9 days later...........while i appreciate nobody on here has likely ever heard of him it doesnt hurt to do a good deed now and then so if anyone

    Thats because the biggest thing in a Scottish football fans season is watching England............not like they have anything to talk about in their own game is it.

    If your on about what i think your on about i stopped going years ago......too many posers and wannabes puffing their chests out

    Like Sam Allardyce, you've got to be happy with where he's got you on a near non existant budget? Y.I.S Leeview He made the 2 biggest signings in the clubs history............one has spent 90% of his time injured the other has spent 90% of his time on the subs bench.........happy with the position yes but we,ve finished mid table plenty of times before playing much better football with much less money.......so swings and roundabouts i guess.

    Thats the spirit .......it go,s against the spirit of the race to have a " must earn " attitude if your not betting on the gee gee,s regularly. Tell that to the bookies.. that "must earn".. im happy taking their money ... easy lol Nah not for me.......if i HAD to make money from betting i wouldnt bet !..............in for a penny in for a pound is my attitude

    I always thought the very first season Arsenal didnt qualify for Champions League that would be Wengers time to go.......be ironic if they finish 5th but win their first trophy for years and he stays i wonder how that would sit with their fans. Liverpool brought some blinding support today,thought they was lucky to take all 3 points but id love to see them go on and win it now....going to be some game next week v City.

    More the merrier if you ask me....i can count the chaps i know in the bird fraternity on my thumbs so depending where you are in the country jjm your welcome to what you like of the excess i breed......if i manage to breed anything that is

    As a pure boxing fan the York Hall is hard to beat for atmosphere.......as a fighter its near impossible to beat for atmosphere......but for casual fans and the football crowd who just want a sing song and a knees up its probably not the best venue as it only holds less than 1500 people..........the atmosphere is within the place itself,even the walk up the steps outside gets your pulse racing................part of the atmosphere as a fighter is that you are trying to live up to whats gone before you,within a mile of York Hall is at least 3 top pro gyms and 3 top amateur gyms so the area brea

    Obviously there still is a dress code at the dinner shows but even at York Hall you wouldnt dream of turning up in t shirt and jeans i dont remember there being doorman as such it was just generally accepted that you turned up respectful.....Shoreditch Town Hall,Royal Albert Hall the old Wembley Arena i dont ever remember people turning up in vests and trackie bottoms....................maybe its a sign of the times we live in eh !

    e/w bets on long odds always worth a go at the national been a fair few 33-1 and 66-1 placed over the years ... What i mean is the majority of folk who bet on the national are not everyday punters earning off gambling...............so why try to be clever just pick a name and commit to it......thats the bet !
  25. gnasher16
    Never understood why people who have a punt on the national have each way bets.................just go for it commit to having a punt if your not an everyday gambler.
