Funnily enough Sunderland has one of the highest computer literacy rates of any city in England. Probably to do with all the bloody call centres...

Awww. *hugs* I was just joshing old chap. Expected a response about how we've only got computers here because we stole them or something.

I remember when Liverpool was 'the' place for call centres, then they just went away.

Welcome back Kermit :D!! Ironic that City dip for the most part while you're gone. Stick around mate :p

i like you more than wilbury

I bet he's gutted.

<3 Can't believe Rodgers beat out O'Neill for Jan though.

I wasn't actually referring to you in that part Fady.

Oh! My bad, in that case I see what you mean. Due to our team's dullness as of late, I take it you are not expecting much from Sunday against a United with potentially Rooney, Nani, and Young back?

Plenty of youngsters, we just don't give any of them a chance.

Bertrand, McEachran, Chalobah, Piazon, Lukaku, Bamford...the list goes on and on, never played a part at all this season outside of a few minutes. (Except for Lukaku who didn't get to impress much).

I personally am not concern with winning anything this season but I am not about to lose faith in AVB so quickly his Chelsea in preseason and earlier this season was looking pretty good so I am gonna continue support him and see what he make of the squad come next season.

Fair point, though I wonder why they constantly dip in their performances after that great start and the beautiful period they had at early December. Makes you feel like the guy doesn't know much about consistency. You don't feel any sense of progression so far.


Hahah, what an epic pic!!

I've saved that resurrection picture. It will come in handy and should go in the OP of OT6.

Oh and OT6, I can't think of a name yet.
 
Started out extremely bad. We were completely shit in the first 15 minutes, how Nürnberg hasn't scored there, I don't know. Got better since the 25th minute and Lewandowski or Großkreutz should have scored :/

Sucks about Bender. I don't think it's too bad that Leitner is playing now though. We lack creativity without Kagawa and Kuba in god mode and with Götze missing. If we continue to play like in the last 20 minutes we should be able to score one.

Hmm. Who's going to get the England captaincy now.

It's got to be a regular. Meh. It's tough call. I'd like to see someone like Barry or Milner or even Joe Hart to be honest.

I am not biased.

Hart isn't a bad shout, Scott Parker too if he gets playing in the starting line-up.

Bar that looking at the England squad there isn't much else to choose from if Rio doesn't want it.

Wouldn't trust Rooney as a captain of England yet.

Wenger better not fucking rest Van Persie this weekend. This is an ultimate must win game and Henry and Park are not potent enough. He can rest Ramsey though, as he is clearly tired. Cant wait until Gibbs is back so we can rest Kos and Per as well since they have played a lot of games.

But rest RVP this weekend = hell fucking NO.

I'd say Hart. Barry and Milner wouldn't be guaranteed regulars. Hart is, he seems responsible and has some qualities of a leader. Also I think he is very likeable and would be a popular captain.

Rooney should never be captain. Ever.

Apparently Terry asked one of his friends in the England camp (I'm guessing Superlamps) to ask one of the black players in the squad if there's a problem. The reply way "F***ing right there's a problem" :lol.

Edit - Gerrard should definitely be skipper going into the Euro's btw. Hart after that. Or Carroll.

What? It's almost too obvious.

Tonight we have Nuremberg V Dortmund.

Tomorrow we have the first ever free to air Premier League game on English TV - City Vs Fulham.

Then we have AC Milan Vs Napoli on Sunday!
When you put it like that...it's absolutely insane that the top level of the nations top sport has never been aired for free. Not even one measly match. It's ridiculous.

Kagawa is a boss. Can't wait for United to add him to our collection of, not quite what we need, players.

Yup. Ridiculous. And what takes the piss a bit more is like how no international cricket is shown anymore etc.

Sky have done so much for sports broadcasting. But they have also ruined it for the masses.
 
One of those dirty wins. The only time we looked really good were those 3 minutes after halftime, after that it went worse again. So happy for Lucas :)

If DAT LEITNER PASS was intended to go there. Mad respect brah!

I'd say so, he plays such passes every now and then.

Kagawa is really good...

He wasn't even playing that good today, you should have seen him last week.

So in answer to my question....no

Only kidding the ac game may be worth a watch

Espn has had free weekends before I'm sure of it, did setanta not as well?

Remember when sky had some games you had to pay for?

I have the white one :D. Japan of Nakamura, Nakata, Takahara, Nakazawa, and Kawaguchi was magical.

Kawa was a boss in pes6!! Such a great keeper. But i always liked the fact that konami over-powered the japanese national team a little :D kawa saving the balls, and then one or two nakamura freekicks in the offense. Awwe yea!

Whoever gets paid by Sky probably doesn't care that people can't watch it for free on BBC or whatever. It's all about the money.
