  1. I didnt mind the "slashing scene". I thought it was a good way to show that everyone, especially those who couldn't/didn't before, were able to kill and survive and so as a group in the whole they got so much stronger for the experience. Seeing a glimpse of the likes of an angry slashing Eugene hammered that home I felt...

    I still however was not able to "believe" that could have done what they did with the amount of walkers but hey ho, Im watching a zombie apocalypse programme, so not believing something now and then is something one should deal with..............

    Where have all the Irish gone? 

     

    Could blame the dirty French or the second rate officiating, but it all comes down to not being good enough in execution in the end. 1 try in 160 minutes of rugby? Awful stuff. Getting beat by that French side is nearly embarrassing.

    The Ireland Italy game is a pretty intriguing prospect IMO. The Italians with no points seems wrong at this juncture

  3. Shame about the Arsenal result. I hope Leicester don't respond poorly to this and drop off. 

    Twas interesting seeing Sturidge, Couthino and Firminio playing with each other for the first time, even if it was Villa....

    I was just about to post I don't remember seeing that annoying turd in Star Wars but I googled it and I don't know he was the ballbot.

    Yeah him and Bill Hader did it. Ever se Bill Hader do his Star Wars impressions? They are very good

     

     

  5. From what I saw (and irrespective of his shit shooting) way too many times was I cursing Benteke for allowing the play to break down around him when in possession. Too often he was not able to find the support player(s) and it was not as if the movement into space of that support was not happening. He needs to get his head checked and Klopp needs to give him a kick in the arse and tell him to keep moving off the ball

  6. Fair balls to the Hammers taking their goals well. More than can be said about LFC

    That Benteke fella is utter dog at the moment! Watching LFC try to score is so infuriating these days. Fingers crossed Sturridge and Origi can stay free of injury now and show what they can do

    Many say that you have to get past series 1 of Parks and Rec before it really starts to get worth watching, don't know if I noticed that myself, but I binge watched the lot.

     

    I found you had to give the characters a chance to warm to them fully and really appreciate them and as season one was so short its about right that everyone starts to really "get it" and love it by season 2.

    I would believe if everyone who says it doesn't get going until season 2 watched season one back they would appreciate it a lot more than they did the first time around as they know the characters now.

    Knope is a gem, but Swanson is still my favourite character on the show btw

    Teixeira to China.  The league seems to have taken another step in terms of the players it is attracting.  They seem to be getting the players at an earlier age, as opposed to talking the retirement approach of the MLS.

    Teams breaking the Super League transfer record 3 times in 10 days and clubs willing to pay double what clubs in Europe feel is value is ominous. Is it sustainable? I have no idea, but right now a hell of a lot of more heads are going to be turned toward the cash sloshing about there.......and their transfer deadline is not until the end of Feb so there may be more to come from China

    Didn't know it was with Duke Garwood though?

    Well according to Garwood himself he will be joining him. I get the impression it will be as a support act but they will obviously do some stuff together during the headline.

     Those 4th down conversions at the end showed what the Patriots are really capable of other when the chips are down.

    They were special. Had me freaking out watching the game. It was unbelieveable. That Brady/Gronk connections is magic when working

    No its not. 

    I mean in general really. I can see with my own eyes why Utd are doing poorly. They are playing shit. Thats simple to understand.

     

     I just mean in the context of the big named manager and the big pockets resulting in fuck-all is pretty amazing stuff. Logic dictates that some improvement would happen getting in a big time experienced manager who has won at the highest level and allowing him to throw about tons of cash.

    His record against the top teams is good.

    Butters no parsnips if ye aint beating the "lesser" teams too. I just find it amazing that after getting the "big name" and after spending so so much money (like it's really a stupid amount of money he has spent!) that at this point in the current season, compared to this point in the dark days of the Moyes season, Moyes' Utd had a better record/points tally and overall Moyes' Utd win % is better than LvG's overall win %. Its pretty perplexing stuff TBF. 

  13. LVG has spent a lot of mulla to have a worse record than Moyes as Utd manager. Why are Utd not being as cut throat? Because they are embarrassed they fell for a big name? Or is it because they are waiting for a certain moment in the season when they can get rid and it would cost them less then now, say when its mathematically impossible for Utd to qualify for the CL?
