What a delightful entrance! Welcome!

When we were originally linked with Juan Pablo Angel, even in a pre-YouTube age, there was an excellent goal of his for River Plate that did the rounds and pretty much single handily instigated the "£" sign protest posters we held aloft in protest over Doug's refusal to cough up the money to buy him.

Let's not forget that Schalke also beat Dortmund this weekend. AHHHHHHHH Thanks SS. I would have posted more of the Chinese guy looking sad but I think that'd have just been unpleasant spamming. Look, we played pretty well and so did they. On the day their wingers were much better than ours and if you take Rooney out of the mix, it was Park and Valencia that were their main men, with Berbatov assisting. We were quite tentative going forward but I felt it was actually our normally solid defense that let us down. Collins and Cuellar didn't have good games at all, while Dunne was very unfortunate to make a mistake, seemingly redeem himself, only to then have Michael Owen standing there to score the easy goal. Obviously the decision to not send off Vidic was lunacy, especially as Dowd was throwing around the cards minutes later, mostly at our expense. I'm very, very sad about this but there's still a lot to play for this season! As Bon Jovi taught us all, keep the faith!

I remember seeing Cana and thinking "who the heck?" Then I saw the armband and I was all "zwah?" Then he got sent off. True story. I only recall Cattermole because when he was at Boro he "famously" cried when he received a booking against us in a 0-4 defeat.
I still don't feel like I have a sense of Steve Bruce as a manager. To put it even more simply, what is the "Steve Bruce brand of football"? When we played Sunderland earlier in the season the central midfielders just seemed to hoof shots from 35 yards, over and over and over again, all of which ended in the car park or thereabouts. All that money you seemed to spend in the summer, were they "his" signings? Inquiring minds must know!
Why is the advert not on YouTube yet? I've only seen the last one and a half seconds of it!
We had two bad results over Christmas - one a fairly comprehensive whoopin' by Arsenal, the other a very unfortunate stoppage time defeat to Liverpool. Aside from that, I'm not really sure what inferior form you speak of, old friend. I mean, we dropped two points home against West Ham last month but apart from that; home draws against Arsenal and Man Utd, a point at Spurs, plus a good win at Fulham and then yesterday's win. All whilst still chugging along in the cups. Solid and unspectacular for sure, but hardly comparable to last season's sad decline. At least...so far!
No problem! I actually attended the game, my third of the season (others being 5-1 Bolton, 2-0 at Fulham - that's a 100% record!). Bizarre game and despite showing a bit of craft, Burnley must be nailed on for relegation given their away form. I imagine Sunderland will be okay, though it is a hideous run of form that they're on. Wolves, Wigan or Bolton for the final relegation spot, I'd say.
A CBS comedy? Please God no. After ten thousand abject episodes of Smallville, plus Street Fighter: The Legend of Randy Sanchez, why must my loyalty be pushed even further?
Its an experimental Bulgarian student film from 1932, I'm sure you'll do fine!
Next time I'm up its going to be a real head scratcher. SS has raised the stakes!
The Night of the Hunter? No idea.
That is...correct!
Have a great Monday!
RocknRolla?
This thread has less momentum than Chester City! OH GOD. So much to discuss, where to begin? Tony Mowbray's leaky Celtic defense? Notts County's ownership problems? Portsmouth possibly going into administration? Aston Villa's manly draw at Crystal Palace?! The sacrilege that was the referee in Bayern's victory over Borussia Dortmund? Oh okay, okay,
