    Sideboard ?

    Not personally my cup of tea and I’d imagine values won’t be that good.....it’s just very workmanlike if that makes sense. I always thing something like that needs a very, very big and light room to sit in or it will just dominate and over power the space. Sid on here is your man anyway ?
  2. @THE STIFFMEISTER You should genuinely pop up a couple of paragraphs of the book you wrote in Afghan brother
  3. Don’t worry, he has been upset ever since he got mate redundant as Barry Chuckles stunt double !
  4. “Kevin Phillips the lurcher dead on the passenger seat......” lol ? Gold !
  5. Don’t worry about it mate, folks can call it what they like but the fact is ALL of England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales is the British Isles, always has been and always will be.........geographically speaking of course ?

    That’s a fair shout in the context you are talking about mate ? However what I don’t think anyone can infer is that his ability is enhanced by drugs, they just don’t make a drug that can give that type of talent......that’s just a lifetime with a gift and a ball at your feet that is.

    Are you referring to his treatment for being small ?......Barcelona offered to pay for all that as part of the deal to take him and his dad to Spain. My cousin had the same treatment and she is a housewife with 3 kids and as far as I know, can’t kick a ball for shit ! Lol

    With a mobile phone he was ! Lol

  10. I think you have to take another factor into account and that is sport is a way into college for most black people in the USA.....it’s what they can do and indeed they do it very well. They have remained closer to chimps physically than Europeans or Asians, they are genetically predisposed to be stronger etc seeing as they are on the cusp of being classed as full human beings. Couple that with 5 years of the best sporting facilities and athletic programmes money can buy and you will see results. Anyone here who has ever had a full physical confrontation with an African will tell

    You will now be excluded from the conversation for mentioning Joe Bolton......go and sit in the corner you silly boy ! ?

    In actual fact, I’d say Christiano Ronaldo would be more prized as an older player by clubs than Messi. At this stage of CR career it wouldn’t even be about what he did on the pitch, he is worth a hundred grand a week just to show young players how to live, eat, train and mindset.......Paulo DiCanio did exactly that for young Frank, Joe and Rio when he came to our little club. These things have value in sport

    Frank won’t want Messi, he is building something and I can see his idea. He wants players at the start of their career, not the end. Messi has PSG written all over him, they are the European equivalent of LA Galaxy. Step inside the PSG shop on the Champs Elise and that tells you exactly what that club is all about......and at this stage of his career Messi fits that model perfectly imho

    Again, amazing but I don’t think you can compare. Pele was the best in the world but again, he was playing against players who’s warm up was Sausage, Egg, Chips and a pint of Guinness before training or a game. Obviously for me Bobby Moore is special but I’m under no illusions he would have been good enough to play in the French World Cup winning side of 98.....they had everything, what they were eating, training, physical robustness, talent, ability and aggression. Imho that era was the culmination of everything that had gone before it and has yet to be bettered. And in fa

    Exactly mate, that’s what I’m talking about......there have been such fundamental changes to football and what referees will stand in Messi’s era that you can’t measure him against other players. The rule changes were a double edged sword in my opinion because they were designed with more of a pure technical style of play in mind which is good but they took a lot of the blood and guts out of the game......when you can be as good as Henry or Ronaldo and make you brain and feet work whilst at the same time trying to avoid getting smashed with a 90mph tackle by Jaap Stam then you really are

    Ronaldo did it consistently in 3 countries and at international level as well. Holland Spain Italy World cup (twice!)

    What everyone has to remember is that C Ronaldo and Messi have been allowed to play under a different system of rules specifically introduced to encourage just that. THE Ronaldo did more and he did it having absolute chunks taken out of him week in, week out as did every player of his generation. To illustrate what I mean I’m going to make a big statement that I’m sure plenty of people will say is bollocks but I genuinely believe it, if Raheem Sterling had been playing in 98 he wouldn’t have got in an Arsenal, Manchester United, Inter Milan or Juventus side.....he may have been on th

    I think what anyone has to do is respect Christiano Ronaldo, that is shear hard work and determination.....he made himself the player he is. Messi, well, you can’t coach that.....it’s a god given gift. The Messi’s of this world can’t be created, they are born imho

    Subjective is right mate. I think Lionel Messi is the greatest player of his generation in that position, absolutely 100% .......but the greatest ever ? I was lucky enough to be a young bloke watching football in what I consider To be a golden age of football and players.....obviously the first that springs to mind is Ronaldo (check his list of honours, it’s breathtaking !!) Then in no particular order: Zidane Henry Batistuta Scholes Beckham Bergkamp Zanetti Maldini Rivaldo Stam Kluivert Gazza Del Piero I c
  20. That’s amazing mate, a decent reward for all the graft you put in.
  21. Bit disappointed to see young Ken not in full kit and sporting the casual look ! May have to put him on a charge !

    Max’s idea of confronting foreign nationals is giving them 10 baht in a bar so he can do them in the arse ! Lol lol
