^ it is hysterical sometimes, but some eps just didn't work.
Hmm, but how does one watch that? It's an ongoing series and I can't speak Portuguese
Yeah, it was all absurd and wasn't giving a fuck and then it got sugar coated all of a sudden. Also Will Ferrell's parts were horrible in ep3. Fuck Will Ferrell btw.

You can download it from TPB... but yeah it looks like you can only get spanish subtitles :/

What the hell?!
Go watch GoT now! It's better than sex (but not football).
In American Football there is a penalty called "offsides" probably why.
So you've already seen the bathtub / plate episode. These particularly scenes were so good.

That was Noble's role for much of last season, and if Sam persists with a 3-man midfield I'd expect Noble to stay in that role this season - I'd guess that Diame has been brought in as a better attacking option to Collison, who showed a return to form in the latter half of last season, but could definitely struggle back in the Premiership. Besides, it'd be pretty foolish to squander a player with such obvious flair.
So far, our starting eleven will probably look like;
Code:
Jaaskelainen
O'Brien - Tomkins - Reid - Potts
Nolan - Noble - Diame
Vaz Te
Cole - MaynardAlthough we really need a proper left back - Danny Potts is too inexperienced, while Demel, who is right sided, has filled in there but hasn't entirely impressed so far. Also, I'd expect us to go for another striker - I'm not sure if Maynard will cut it, while if we keep Baldock he'll probably go out on loan, as a full season in the championship would do him good and he didn't get much opportunity to play last season.
I´m loving Breaking Bad and Justified, they sit right up there with Person of Interest and Game of Thrones.
Actually, i´m enjoying Justified the most, it´s refreshing and fun to see all the crazy shit that goes on in the south.
This gets my vote.
You've made a fair few good signings now, top half could be a proper realistic target next year right?
Ah, happy to be proved wrong. Can't see you going down next year, Allardyce has something about him the bastard.
Did Maynard score much after his move?
It's so much better the way they left it. Such a Kenny Powers thing to do.

Not really, he got 2 goals in 14 games for us, 8 in 26 at Bristol - he always seemed like he was at odds with the style of football Sam wanted us to play, and he probably would have been much more comfortable in a traditional 4-4-2 set-up, which is part of the reason I'd expect us to go in for another striker.
And yeah, I'm strangely confidant - not so much in that the football we'll be playing will always be attacking minded and entertaining, but rather in that I think Sam has what it takes to keep us up and bring some much needed stability. And either way, I'm just damn excited for us to be back in the Premiership this season
Yeah, we've done well so far. 2 players with Premier League experience and England caps, and 2 younger lads with plenty to prove. All on free transfers. We are pretty much sorted defensivly now so im excited to see who we sign going forward.
I still expect a tough season. Seeing the fixtures on Monday reminded me how tough this league is. There's no easy games. Id be satisfied with consolidation in all honesty, but were a decent side so with form, some more shrewd signings and some luck we could do more.
fuck the mls and go to qatar/saudi arabia/ect for that arab moneyz.
Shut up!
I want Del Piero to play in MLS, I would even go to renew my visa just to see him play.Someone here keeps doing that...fucking assholes.
Take about five. Fold them over until it's equivalent to one or thereabouts.
Shut up!
arab money >>>> MLS. much more "competitive" p(l)ay.
wtf...you're an illegal immigrant from mexico elsk??
andale..
shit in a plastic bag. I did that few times in my life when I couldn't reach a toilet....awww yeahh..
Went to Zakynthos, had to shit in bags for two weeks. It was truly awful. Plumbing in that place was terrible.

What a waste. Take three squares and fold them in half. After use fold in half and wipe again.
Oh man, that sounds NASTTTTTY

You're supposed to fold them inwards on the second go obviously. Toilet paper efficient lifestyle fuck yeah. Wouldn't try this with cheapass grey recycled single-layer tp though.

Hey, you're going too? Nice, I'm going to be there. Where are you sitting? Think Torres will play after the Euros? I'm super excited, we're going to be seeing some great players regardless.
I remember this poor kid at school doing something similar.
He actually had a song for it, which he sang in the school bogs, which we found hilarious at the time.
Feel a bit bad for laughing now, like.
Actually had a problem with my plumbing a few weeks back, had to open my sewage transfer boxes in my yard and unblock it with an 12m iron girder, literally shity work detail during the weekend lol.
But i love these little construction projects, comes with working in the field, get my hands dirty
They were excellent, the tub scene specifically. Was so tense when he realised about the plate too.
Wait, there are people here who don't fold toilet roll inwards to maximise usage? What's wrong with some people, do you just wipe and throw? That's just hemorrhaging paper.

Have you seen Chelsea play live yet? I'm seeing Villa in Chicago next month and I'm beyond excited. I also ordered this year's shirt for myself and my girlfriend, so I share your financial pain.

Muntari out for injury for the next 5/6 months.
I don't know what to say. We haven't even started next season ffs, we already have a key player (oh god, our midfield is crap if Muntari is that important to us) unavailable until Christmas.
The funny thing about this is that I actually got injured last sunday while playing football. I may need to change team.

Good lads, should be class to see your teams with a new manager. I'm excited for the first game under Rodgers. I was at Kenny's first game at Anfield, which was coincidentally a Merseyside derby and it was fucking class; even more so because we didn't lose to Everton which, after life under Hodgson, seemed like a miracle.
About to have one of my favourite teas from the chippy: egg fried rice with a portion of curry sauce poured over it. Fucking heaven.
