Has anyone read the latest issue of Time Magazine - the finest publication on the planet? They named Bono, Bill Gates & Melinda Gates as Time Magazine's Persons of the Year. They also named George Bush Snr & Bill Clinton as partnership of the year.
It's a fantastic read - best Time I've read...
I'm sure it's been mentioned, but I'm gutted that the Champions League final has been drawn at this stage yet again.
Chelsea Vs Barcelona. Best teams in Europe by quite a bit I reckon
Anyone seen the interviewer with Seb Carole on Seagulls World?? Am I the only one who found it hilarious? Took the interview 15 minutes to ask a question :lolol:
This excerpt came from a well known comedy. Name it, and then its your turn:
Woman: "You ignorant prick"
Man : "You watch that mouth of yours"
Woman "You stupid bastard"
According to the BBC, Collingwood is going to replace Strauss in the team for the Third test BBC Report .
It also mentions they may drop a spinner (probably Udal) and play a seamer. Personally I would be tempted to drop Udal for a batsman - Cook. Our batting has been weak and is only weaker...
I don't mean to be harsh, but everytime anyone remotely famous dies why does NSC have a "RIP" thread? People die every day, including relatives of my own family recently, and yet we're having love-fests about the death of people ranging from George Best to the guy from Karate Kid.
It dilutes...
As there are a few Albion fans in Australia at the moment, we thought we would organise an Albion piss-up at Pier 26 on Tuesday December 6th at 5.30pm.
Pier 26 is in Cockle Bay (Darling Harbour) and is our usual scene for carnage. All tourists welcome!
According to the BBC this is likely to be the team that plays Argentina. Given the players who can't get in the side or are injured like Campbell, Ashley Cole, Gary Neville, Joe Cole, SWP, Defoe etc I'm actually quite excited by this. Maybe we've been concentrating too much on the 4th choice...
I've just seen the highlights - was the game really that bad??!! They didn't show any saves of note and even showed a run-of-the-mill cross which Henderson caught easily. Bad miss by Hammond, but apart from that.....
Interesting piece on BBC website about the upcoming tour to Pakistan and who will be picked. The second spinner will be interesting. With Gareth Batty playing so badly, there's rumours 23 year old Monty Panesar might get the nod. Looks a good prospect, and it would be great to have someone...
We had Craig Foster, former Australian captain & Palace defender, at our end-of-season football dinner last night. I got to ask him a question from the audience:
me: How long did you play for Crystal Palace
CF: About 2 1/2 seasons
me: Has the stench worn off yet?
CF: stunned silence...
I was surprised by my own reaction to Englands defeat to N.Ireland today, and I put it down to being over here for so long. But I find myself not as passionate as I was about the Ashes even last week. I love sport, but I think it's because I've finally realised the woman I'm with is the woman...
They just showed in Australia a shot of Lee & Flintoff warming up TOGETHER this morning before today's test. Whatever happens - and I still think we will do enough to win the Ahses - the competition between Flintoff & Pieterson against Warne & Lee is the greatest we've all seen, and maybe we...
