:sick: oh its like that is it....never let love get in the way of sport i say.....but i guess i can see the attraction http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Arsene-Wenger.jpg
-
I think your just making them up off the top of your head now ...........mind you i think id be doing the same if Millwall dropped a clanger so....fair play
-
Its the biggest most popular sport in the world mate !....If the worlds top players only played for their local side Didier Drogba would currently be playing for some little village with no water on the Ivory Coast !....Ronaldo would have played for ...Madeira United England has the greatest league in world football,so common sense tells you its going to attract some of the worlds top footballers.....do you have any understanding of competetive sport at all ?
-
I took that in the way i think he meant it.....Chelsea are simply a succesful side in todays times,that dont make them a big club as we know..... He is Spanish after all i doubt the lingo is easy to explain things ....you just got to read between the lines sometimes.
-
Without wishing to be nosey or impolite sir.....how does somebody from the Isle of Man end up supporting Arsenal with all the great clubs nearer home ?
-
If you live in Liverpool then Liverpool is your local club ...or should you go and watch sunday league football because the premier league is going through a spell of foreign imports ! If you was into greyhound racing would you go and watch the top hounds at the top local track or would you go watch 2 labradors racing round the local park ?....If your into football you want to watch it played at the highest level. My team West Ham are certainly not the best but ive been to see reserve games/youth team games plenty of times....id rather do that than go and watch Leyton Orient who are also l
-
I think its because the FA dont want all whats go,s with the traditions of an England v Scotland fixture as regards crowds etc.......they would rather we played a bunch of meaningless friendlies against Belarus and other little known Russian villages than play meaningful traditional matches like the good old days. Id love a return to the home internationals but i dont think these top knobs at the FA have much about them when it comes to competetive traditional fixtures its much easier to sell out Wembley to Bosnians/Ukranians etc......and they dont have as far to travel to Wembley as the Scot

Thats fine each to their own......i dont like knitting,thats boring to me,so i dont enter into conversations about knitting,and i dont slag knitting off as i know some folk find it great.....each to their own......what people who dont like football get out of entering into discussions about football i dont know Besides which.....the proofs in the pudding its the most popular activity in world sport.....so its you whos different not us who love it. I do support a team of local lads.....as folk from Manchester do,as folk from Liverpool Glasgow or any other area do.....or should we choose
-
Heavyweight ....blimey thats pushing it a bit....light heavy possibly but heavy is a step too far in my opinion.....i know he,s a rangey guy and could probably hold the weight on but for a fighter who relies on his speed and reflexes like Silva does to be carrying excess weight takes away his most dangerous asset.....yes im sure he could cope through sheer technique.....but will he be able to carry his punch and power up with him.....i have my doubts he could do that at light heavy let alone full blown heavyweight......but thats what keeps sport interesting i guess.....i just dont think he s

20 it is then Stan.....ive had a few similar bets recently....strange thing to be hoping to skint myself What we would do for him back here now.....one of my all time sporting hero,s Mr.Moore.
-
What the fucks that all about ....pair of melts ! These people who try to slag off THE most popular activity known to living man,i believe only do it to be " different "....pricks !
-
I can never refuse a bet ...for money or just for sport ?.....cant believe im betting against my Hammers but i promise myself to always bet with the head instead of the heart and my head just cant see us staying up.....and neither would yours if you saw us play every week ......so your on. Your right about Dalglish its refreshing to see these days.
-
yep fair point i spose Still think Dalglish is getting a lot of the praise from tactical decisions that are most probably not his own though......but yes cant argue with your point.
-
Desperate people do Desperate things.
-
Its all well and good Liverpool moaning about Chelsea nicking Torres......but im starting to think Liverpool gained more than they lost in getting Steve Clark.......or wait,is it all down to Dalgish
-
You say that but its only in todays times with advances of knowledge in sports nutrition/cutting weight etc that its even been possible.....back even only 10 years ago it was very rare for a fighter to return to a lower weight class.... Test himself the mans a world champion he didnt get there by not being tested its just the nature of competetive sport that occasionally somebody will come along who appears superior........but that rarely lasts......very few fighters ever retire undefeated or even on top.....Silva will be no different his time will come but why should he go up in weight to
-
Absolutely diabolical.....even though we were never a great side we always played football the right way.....now we,ve just resorted to whacking long balls up and hoping for the best....Birmingham were poor but we was awful.....Definately going down.
-
The idea is to fight at your lightest possible weight not your heaviest.....he would be mad to move up,the only reason a fighter should move up is if he is struggling to make weight and he,s not......you only want him to move up to see him pushed harder and possibly lose but thats just the way sport works sometimes a fighter dominates the era he is in which is all Silva is doing. Belfort was too hesitant but thats what a good counter puncher will do is make you warey of letting punches go through fear of being tagged........whats Randy Couture doing these days couldnt he cut a leg off and get

Ive known quite a few decent travelling boys over the years.....wouldnt say i respected them but certainly had no reason to disrespect them....ive found most of them who give their word will stand on and not let you down when the going gets tough......id certainly have more faith and more in common with a traveller than i would with a paki,muslim or some of the other shit we have to contend with on this island of ours. And seen a few tidy looking treacles who look quite inviting till they open their mouth .....maybe ive just been lucky but ive never had any bother with them
-
As regards ability id say your right and he might be a valuable asset......but my bet is it could come down to passion and who wants it most,the will to stay up etc.......and im not sure Robbie Keane has ever really been passionate about any of the clubs he,s claimed to have supported since childhood
-
Tevez saved us a few years ago,plain luck saved us last year.......you can only ride your luck so long sooner or later you have to rely on your football team to stay up ....and ours just hasnt been good enough.....im prepared for the worst so anything else is a bonus.....tomorrows a massive game against Birmingham.
-
My pal is a regular at the Emirates he reckons your lot are crying out for 2 central defenders,says the majority of goals Arsenal concede are from high balls straight down the middle.....could do with Adams and O leary back ! If Wenger was just a football manager instead of a manager/accountant/financial advisor/stadium planner etc i think Arsenal could have the beating of all of them over a season. No i,ll always be devoted to my Hammers mate ....even when i bleed theres a little bit of blue in with the claret

Ive been going to the Greek islands for many years,was in Kos around 95 they had posters on the walls about the little lad Ben.........then when i went again around 03/04 they still had some up.........so although its little comfort of course its good to know they still remember which doesnt surprise me,your right what you say about the Greek culture but i also believe an incident like this wouldnt be forgotten there as in my experience most greeks have good morals and strong beliefs and would find this an embarassment to their culture and way of life etc.....if im not wrong Ben was taken from
-
Its like they say.....the clubs that survive relegation will be the ones that beat the clubs around them not the top 6.....i still think it will be the 3 W,s that go down....Wolves Wigan and West Ham.....just shows though anyone can beat anyone in this league,great advert for the premiership.
-
After that win against Everton during the week i had a sneaky bet on Arsenal for the title....got 15/8.....yous have only got Man U and Liverpool to come the rest look easy,which today did on paper so who knows !....Utd have still got to play Chelsea twice,Liverpool Man City so plenty of points to drop if Arsenal can steadily beat the smaller clubs i think they have a great chance this year...... Think im becoming a closet Gooner
