  1. Not really Pete.. I enjoyed the book but it's aimed at teens and the author is intent on having a girl love-torn between two characters, at times it's a bit much but the story and the thought process behind the character's actions is enjoyable but the film falls short, it's Battle Royale with a 12a rating.

    Thanks Louis. I haven't read the books so shouldn't be that much of a let down for me. I'll give it a try next week.

  2. Agree on the Shaky camera, sometimes it was a bit too much! The bit at the start of the games where they chose the weapons was disappointing, I couldn't work out, who died, how many died and how...it all happened too quick and felt like it was bruched over.

     

    Again, it was entertaining enough, I just feel it wasn't what people had hoped.

    Is it worth watching if you have already seen Battle Royale? Sounds like The Condemned for girls.

  3. I think I need to stay away from this thread for a while in case I grind people's gears. I wear my hood up even when its sunny so that I look good, I actually like Robbie Savage and I fully understand Twitter and use it daily. I apologise now for the offence cause to you all, kill me now!

  4. Zoo's Question of the Day Round 26:

    Name Glasgow Celtic's Top 5 all time goalscorers;

     

    1 - Jimmy McGrory (468) (correctly answered by Dalziel Kane).

    2 - Bobby Lennox (273) (correctly answered by Dalziel Kane).

    3 -

    4 -

    5 -

    Sutton

     

    Guess the 3 Polish are Lucas, Lukas, and Lukasz

  5. Lerner is a villa fan supposidely (long before he bought them). Overall though he's a business man - he put a lot in and yes it was wasted but he's now recouped most of that.

     

    It's all if's and but's about what Moyes could have done with that backing but overall I'd rather be us than them. If we ever get taken over then we need sustainability - we need the stadium... be it redevelopment or from scratch. Villa have just about survived the investment/cut backs but they have a more 'profitable' infastructure - we don't and I'd fear a 'villa scenario' ruining our great club.

    He could have invested towards a better stadium for us, as we have better players. £50 mil would have helped us secure the King's Dock stadium, then we would turnover a profit to then improve the squad. Overall we would have been a better investment.

  6. Looking at the list Pete put up there, im not sure he would have done.....

    I'd left off Warnock and Heskey which would have been very Moyes like signings. *Football Manager mode activated* Them 2 plus SWP(he's gash though, so eventually fobbed off for Elia) Van Bommel, Valencia, Rodgella, Dzecko, Gonzalez, Defour and of course Mountinho! As well as millions wasted on the media hyped English kids like Delph.

    Howard

    Neville Jags Lescott Baines

    Van Bommel

    Arteta Moutinho Gonzalez Valencia

    Dzecko

    Bench: Hart, Hibbert(Naughton in reserves), Distin, Defour, Osman, Elia, Rodgella

    No Pienaar, Heitinga, Fellaini or Jelavic. Are starting 11 is not to far away from this quality, just need some wingers. The bench is were we lack most, not many game changes in reserve... unless you count the one in the reserves *cough* Barkley.

    Back to the real world, in all seriousness think we would have benefitted more from the stability of not having to sell rather than being able to buy.
