Right lads I'll get the petition registered! We have to fight this decision for the good of the country. Get me the Home Secretary on the phone !

I'm amazed nothing's happening....his contract doesn't run out until summer 2009. Can't just keep paying him til then surely?

Was called "The World's Biggest Mass Suicide" made by a guy called Stanley Nelson. I'd seen stuff on it before but this had so much footage and sound recording from the actual day, from the shootings at the plane right up to Jones urging them on to kill the children. Holy shit, in the name of religion?!? Wonder what goes on in any of the survivors heads, how do you get over that? Many were still defending Jones on some level, saying what a great man he was. Jeez. Need to watch it again to process it a bit further. Not just yet though.

My little (er, he's 42 now ) brother used to be able to do it in 30 seconds max. You couldn't see his hands move , was in national competitions and all sorts the little geek . I, however, have no clue.

It's just that you obviously have such a natural talent for it Bill . Think sharing it around is the way to go though personally...choosing the most suitable for each game. Dodge could do Liverpool for example .

He has now.

Difficulty is the lack of knowledge on an international basis that Everton is in Liverpool. People know of the city of Liverpool and of Everton FC but frequently don't realise the geography. Similar thing applied to Wimbledon where I used to live....everyone around the world has heard of Wimbledon and of London but they don't have any idea that Wimbledon is in London. It's wrong though I agree to push the red football clubs association without mention of Everton. Mentioned elsewhere Alexei Sayle suggesting you're only a "true scouser" if you're born within the sound of Anfield. It's crap and needs addressing, but it won'y be.

But we have a game in hand jacko. If we win the next two then even if they win at Fulham they're four points behind with Newcastle at home followed by trips to Reading (tricky) and Arsenal. We have Reading at home followed by tougher games at City and home to Pompey. Still expect us to be clear going into Sunderland, Fulham and Wham. No problem .

These next two games could define our season...league-wise. If we were to pick up six points (big ask) we'd then have clear space below us, with the probable exception of Liverpool. We'd be odds-on for fifth place and in a position to push on for fourth (with the African lads back) without having to worry too much about looking over our shoulders all the time. Four points from the two would be a bloody good performance also, would mean ten from twelve without Yak, Joey and Pienaar, we couldn't have hoped for more than that.

At least three non-Premier League sides assured of a place in the last eight... Bristol Rovers v Southampton Cardiff City v Wolves Sheffield United v Middlesbrough Liverpool v Barnsley Manchester United v Arsenal Preston v Portsmouth Coventry City v West Brom Chelsea v Huddersfield Town ...possibly more. Can see Sheffield United beating 'Boro and Preston will have a shot against Pompey.

Yobo and Yak for sure because their (potentially) last game is tomorrow. South Africa don't play til Thursday so not a lot of chance of Pienaar being back in time....the one time we could actually do with a Sunday kick-off we don't get it <_< . The "good" thing is that SA are out barring a miracle and I can see Ivory Coast letting Mali get the draw they need to qualify which would put Nigeria out. IC would be delighted to see them gone because they're a much bigger threat in terms of winning the tournament than Mali.

Members only pulling a few lurkers out of cyberspace eh? Many memories of Brighton, used to go there a lot in my youth . Welcome!

There's no sensible explanation jacko, try to ignore him.

Cracking piece Bill....nicely done.

And Jigsaw's on it (LINK). Can't believe he's thirty-nine ! Good luck to him.

Woodgate and King is potentially a top level pairing, whether either/both play on Wednesday is another matter (is Woodgate fit?). Even if they do it'll take them a while to settle in....I hope .

Just watched a documentary about Jim Jones and the Jonestown massacre. Very disturbing.

Where does that information come from? You can't post it as fact without backing it up.

If we're talking location only, money no object fantasy land I'd go... Goodison Loop Stanley Park (not groundshare...Liverpool can find somewhere else ) Kirkby

That is painful, happened to me once . My mother has a loose shoulder, drops out all the time and has done for forty plus years. She just puts it back in and carries on as if nothing has happened .

I didn't know we could before .

Is it a significant upgrade Louis? Can you send a large electronic charge to Dodge's (or once-a-blue's) keyboard for example. Not enough to kill them of course but ECT is still used in many areas of the mental health services. Might be therapeutic for them .

You need to take it up with Joe Cole. Go register on a Chelsea site, I'm sure you'd be very welcome .

It is . You been adding an optional extra or two Louis?

Wind up.
