  1. Kelly's a better defender, I'd rather Johnson start he's at fault in the majority of goals they concede

    Bugger, hadn't read the question properly thought it was for the season. Guessing Fulham because Pog and Dempsey have got hattricks recently.

    Think I heard on the Fulham commentary that it is City then, United, Fulham.
  5. http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748704281204575002852055561406.htmlAmerican football has around 12 mins of actual play, proper football is about 78 mins
  6. I fear the worst, it takes them two hours to play on average 12 minutes of American football because of all the analysing. It would get very repetitive as well for people who watch more than a couple of games a year. Our commentators do a little bit, we even have replays of the better bits, but the American guy wants a full analysis with arrows, degrees, power velocity ect. rather than a sound bite which is more than enough. The vid you just put up is a perfect example even though its foreign commentary you could see that was special, and then a slow mo replay and thats enough. Americanising it would have a massive Boo-yeah! followed by 5 replays from different angles then a guide how to emulate it yerself, meanwhile we miss the football match in the back ground to the flashing lights. The American dream is they can do anything if they try hard enough and it shows in their sport preference, they go for stuff anyone can do BaseBall, Basket Ball, and Nascar. They don't like sports where natural ability plays a bigger factor like Football* and F1, as it challenges there ideals. *Phil Neville is an anomaly
  7. He ran himself to the floor on Saturday, makes sense for Straq to take over and do the same. Hopefully bring Jelavic on early in the second half
  8. There is not enough time between play to do it though, only way would to implement a break every 5 mins and explain it for 5 mins then carry on (oh and dont forget to add an extra advert or two). It's pretty obvious if a player is leaning back he's gonna more than likely sky it, they shouldnt need to get the mechanics explained to them. Their human being just like footballers, and god help us all if they don't know they affects of moving your leg
  9. Is he being satirical and just saying Americans are too stupid for football, and need to be spoon fed. Oh and shown f*cking replay after replay rather than actual game play
  10. There was no sign at all of a foul, nothing he could have seen to remotely think there had been a foul. Never seen a goal ruled out in similar fashion by any other refs either, so its hard to say it was a ref mistake either. He cheated us(along with the rest of Uefa). SSN replayed it for weeks which was torture
  11. What the hell does Walcott do i training, he does everything wrong. He must literally practive at being shit to make sure he gets absolutely everything wrong. Awful, awful player.

  15. A few more post a day and I think I could edge it
  16. A little bit. Think thats probably one of the most sampled tracks ever though. Think I heard the beginning in a Bowie song earlier on today (listened to Heroes, Low, and Young Americans today so got no idea what song I'm even on about ). I do remember Crash Dummies on the SNES having a level that sounded pretty similar to it though, and a hard level it was.
  17. I hope Coates(Cahill would be this kids nightmare), Carragher(past it), Adam, Henderson, Spearing, Gerard(past it), Suarez(lowest strike rate in the prem) all play. Non of these players are anywhere near good enough to be playing in a Merseyside derby and 'king Kenny deserves punishing(thanked by all Evertonians) for letting the side get so poor. Only fear is Bellamy, but cant see him starting 2 games in such a short space of time. Looking forward to see who the echo squeeze out the kopite side into a merseyside 11 at the end of the season.
  18. There before my time, so for me it's more bedroom rock
  19. Love Fragile , was how I discovered Soft Machine. Had found King Crimson before Yes, Youtube has been my music saviour if it werent for that site I'd think all music is poo
  20. Just about to say this as well. Didnt recognise the band at all, but the song sounded familiar and a great song it is. (Wiki'd them and remember them now because of the orgasm record)
