    Do you have to register for that poolball thing or just stumble onto the felt?

  • Let's actually bring it against LA and not give them too much respect like we always seem to do. I want to at least make a game out of it and score once, that's all I want.

    The last time Becks played here we had a streaker. Which of you is going to continue this tradition?

    I totally thought that too.

    When he's about to take a free kick with his hands on his hips I can't help but think of Captain Morgan Spiced Rum.

    Can't wait for Robson to finally play in front of his home fans. Have this feeling he is going to have a great game. Seems the guy who is up for it.

    Since he is playing in front of the home crowd for the first time, I think I will wear my Dundee United away kit (it's white) for the game.

    Why are so many people up on Harvey right now? He is playing better, agreed, but Rochat has been our solid LB.

    People are praising Harvey because in the past he has not been as highly rated as he should have been. More people are now noticing that he is better than they thought he was.

    That is NOT the same thing as rating him above Rochat at LB. I don't recall reading comments by anyone who thinks that.

    Agreed. What it means however is that we have some depth at that position. i.e. I'm no longer worried (much) if Rochat has to sit out.

    That is all fair ball.

    Rochat seems to be our first choice cover at DM and CB........but we are so much stronger at the back with him at LB.

  • just went onto ticketmaster to see where we are on tickets remaining. Looks like there's only singles available in the 300 section.

    wonder if theyve removed all the lower tarps?

    PDJ, I agree that we are stronger with Rochat at LB. I'm of the opinion that we should be changing like for like, because a switch disrupts two positions rather than one. I'd sub in Carlyle at CB if De Merit or Bonjour is injured, but that doesn't appear to be Rennie's opinion. Last year Soehn and or Thordarson (mabye both, I forget) put Rochat at CB too rather than play a natural CB there. They're the pros, I'm the armchair fan.

    Of course, I'd be rotating Carlyle, Harvey, and Klazura in once in a while, to (a) develop them; (b) rest the older legs; and (c) keep everyone sharp and committed to training, with the knowledge that they could be playing that week. It's great to say "we're going to reward guys who work hardest in training", but at some point will people who never get a game be expected to drop their compete level during practice? Or think privately the things that Long Tan expressed privately? I would think so. Maybe there's just too much "youth coach" in me, and that causes me to favour letting everyone get some playing time. Cheers.

    Posh is a slapper

    She likes it in the ass

    and when she's bagging Beckham

    she dreams of Martin Nash

    **Though we don't do this sort of thing anymore I understand. :-)) :-)) :-))

    Though we could make it PC

    Posh enjoys rough sex

    She prefers anal intercourse

    and when she has relations with David

    She dreams of Hassli's horse.

  • I say we go with the amendedTwisted Sister we used for Mexico women for Beckham:

    You're not gonna make it! No! You're not gonna make it You're not gonna make it to London No, no, no no no no!

    Could change it to "You didn't make it" for "not gonna" as well.

    Since Kenny Miller is unlikely in the 18, i wonder if he will be outside on the concourse before the match.

    The second one might offend people who are into bestiality. And as we've seen with the pedo chant, we wouldn't want to offend any sexual predators.

    Just a reminder that if you are caught throwing anything on the field, Including Streamers, you face expulsion from the match. So don't be an idiot.

    Security sometimes gives people trouble when they're bringing in liquid, so my suggestion is to bring empty bags and piss in them at the stadium, then throw them.

    It's funny, I was just wondering whether I wanted to call Josh Saunders a pedophile or an alcoholic pedophile.

    Well, why don't we break out the tractor chant? For those of u who don't know, it goes like this:

    Posh is a slag That's ok, it doesn't really matter Cause every guy at bc place Has rode her like a tractor Oh-hey, oh-ha, oh-hey, oh-ha...
