  1. Really good documentary/ film about it. The two escobars it's called. Highly recommended.
  2. Probably. They'll get him cheaper than the 6 million they offered in the summer. For all the game was done when he came on he didn't do himself any favours. Gave the ball away constantly. Which is a trait of his when not playing regularly. Needs to move from Everton as he isn't suited to their style and will never be a regular again. Being the last sub to come on in a capital one cup match kinda confirms he won't be.
  3. http://www.goodtoknow.co.uk/recipes/472632/Hairy-Bikers--steak-and-ale-pie Made this a couple of times over the last few weeks. Proper magic! It always tastes better home cooked but strangely is never very economical with the core ingredients costing more than one you get out the butchers. I love cooking though so it's worth the extra expense for the experience and the added flavour. Anyways the recipe is a piece of pish to follow. I'd recommend giving it a bash.
  4. Yeah a centre half, who had probably been one of, if not the best player, in the 18 months prior to that game cost us it.
  5. We ain't pish mate. We were naive and were in a tough group. If all we had to do was finish above Bosnia, who finished 4 points behind Wales we would've strolled it. We have been extremely unlucky. Coupled with a disgraceful performance against Georgia away. We are a better side than either of those teams on the park tonight but fair play to them, particularly Ireland who know their limitations but show tremendous application in every game. Unlike us.
  6. Good luck to Ireland. Bosnia have been utterly inept this evening. When they have attacked Ireland have looked decent. Game over. That penalty decision though.... ?
  7. Yeah that is a fair point mate. But it has changed the complection of the game and bosnia's game plan completely I would suggest?
  8. Fair play to Niall Quinn. Berating the pen decision, harshest he has ever seen. Nae point in asking blinkers paddy bonner I suppose. Always seems a top guy does big Niall and knows his football. Incidentally will Bosnia be given 5 million euros to shut up if they go out. That was as big an injustice as Henry's handball.
  9. Irrespective of who you favour to win, that is an utter disgrace from the refereeing team to give that pen. Has to be the softest pen I have ever seen for a handball. He is a yard or two away. Hands down by his side. The type of decision that suggests an utter lack of understanding of the game by the ref.
  10. The banning of the burka in France. So so very sad. Why can't we live alongside each other in harmony. It's just so senseless. I had been talking about how fecked up our world was earlier tonight. This compounds it.
  11. Watching the Norway vs Hungary game. Great goal to give Hungary the lead. Actually a decent game. Must've be a really tough day for many of the Hungarian players so their level of effort and performance is to be admired. Hope they see it out. Oh and Johansen isn't just pish for Celtic
  12. The last two days on way in and out of work I've listened to the Graeme souness one. Good. The Davie moyes one. Good. And the Harry redknapp one. Very good. Tempted to go to the fundraising q and a.
  13. Hahaha good yin! I'm sorry that sir Alex Ferguson and I have a differing opinion than you on a guy that we both rate highly. The United job can be written off. Terrible time to go to the club and he was sacked despite having a better record than van gaal after the same amount of games and with more than 200m less spent. Wasn't given the time or support by the United board who appointed him to please ferguson. His time in San Sebastián was poor, as has been highlighted in the other thread, his heart wasn't in it clearly. I think he will do exceptionally well at the right club. It won't be long until we find out as he is rated highly in England. Far too early for I told you sos. If he flops the next one then I might agree with you
  14. Nonsense mate. His achievement has to be taken in context. He did it all with a negative net spend at a time when his competitors were all spending massively, hundreds of millions. To have Everton, who he took from a club fighting relegation under several managers, finish regularly in the top 7 and as high as 4 place in the league with that negative net spend was an incredible achievement. His record at Preston was equally as impressive if not even more so. He has had a bad few months at one club, socidad. His record with man Utd is almost identical to van gaal's with 200m less spent.
  15. Chelsea Bayern Valencia draw no bet Roma draw no bet 5/1
  16. He was a standout in a poor side. His movement and strength caused everton's defence so many problems. Worked excellently as a second striker to Defoe. Would be interesting to see him with a partner for us. A great link up player. Still our best by a mile.
  17. Wallace has been a vastly underrated player for a number of years now. If he stayed at Celtic he would've had a good number of caps. Probably too late for him now for us, particularly with Robertson now on the scene. Good player.

    Actually no, I was right! they were level on points going into Monday's games. So Slovakia did have to match ukraine's result.
