I think a neutral venue will mean Fulham will revert to type and defend for their lives, much like Rangers did when they reached the final a couple of years ago. They're a pretty easy team to keep quiet, for all their neat and tidy players, a bit of pace usually sees them flustered. Of course my prediction was made without knowing who their opponents would be, and though I don't follow the Spanish game at all, I'll go with 2-0 Madrid. Dignified defeat, Roy gets knighted, Clint Dempsey replaces Jonathan Ross on BBC 1, Bobby Zamora becomes England captain, Nick Clegg makes al-Fayed Chancellor, etc, etc.

^Probably owed a few million by Portsmouth. A few months ago I told someone that Fulham would do exactly what Middlesboro did a few years ago in the UEFA Cup; battle to the final and then get thumped by a much more classy opponent. Of course it helps that I like Roy Hodgsen a hell of a lot more than Steve McClaren, but hmm, still not sure. Being a petty man I've never subscribed to the idea of cheering for other English teams in European competitions. Regardless, Roy is a scholar and a gentleman.

French Movies
I am a self-proclaimed ignorant supporter of French films. I'm drawn by the big names so I usually end up only seeing mainstream award winners/rom-com fluff.

I forget too sometimes, though in truth I was quite immersed around the period he signed. 1998/9 was the first year I shared a season ticket with my brother, and as it worked out I ended up seeing his last game for Middlesboro (3-1 home win), his home debut for us (Wimbledon 2-0) and his second home game, in which he missed a penalty but scored the match winner (Derby 1-0). That pretty much sums it up, against the lesser teams he could score delightful goals with the outside of his foot and run games without breaking much of a sweat, but against everyone else he'd go missing. Amazingly we have some idiot supporters who seem to think we're worse off under O'Neill than we were back then. That being said, this was a fine goal.

In any other part of the field no one would have blinked at such a clumsy lunge being called a foul, in fact Blues should be thanking their lucky stars that he wasn't sent off. Alas, you can't reason with neanderthals. Anyway I hope they enjoy 9th while it lasts, they're still going to finish twenty points behind us. THE GAP IS CLOSING OH NO hur hur hur hur- Football

The fact that Matt LeBlanc was looking decidedly puffy and middle-aged certainly didn't help the basic premise, which was daft/terrible/fundamentally ludicrous to the character's personality.- Bands/artists you've been into lately
You might say Someone's Missing has something missing! hur hur hur No, I see what you mean. Still, definitely a highlight on an album full of them. Also, if anyone can locate me a copy of that Siberian Breaks 12" that isn't twenty quid then you'd be a hero for life!- Football

Siberian Breaks 12" I desire this product greatly!- Rosie Huntington-Whiteley
Hahahahahahahahaha. Oh well.- Bands/artists you've been into lately
I think this is much more deliberately scatter shot than the first album, which was just a bit top heavy. Glad you're sweet on Siberian Breaks, as centrepieces go its pretty great. Also lovely to see such lavish homages to Peter Gabriel era Genesis.- Football
