Zoo Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 Can't see how she would keep her 'chest' under control if she had to come sprinting onto the pitch if I'm honest. (not that I'd complain). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete0 Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 How doesn't this count as cheating? Nik Postinger @TouchlineDrama AVB admits to blood spinning at Tottenham—"It's a technique we have used since the beginning of the season. It isn't common but does happen" Blood-spinning: blood is taken, 'spun' in a centrifuge to increase the concentration of growth hormones, then injected back into the body. Blood-spinning's a controversial—but not illegal—treatment that some critics have labelled as borderline cheating. Used on Defoe all season.

Zoo Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 Isn't that the same as blood doping (which gets people banned from the Olympics?). It should be banned from football if it isn't already, I'm really surprised that it isn't illegal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It should be banned from football if it isn't already, I'm really surprised that it isn't illegal. Different from doping, but I don't know whether it's allowed in other sports. 'Blood spinning is not to be confused with blood doping, the technique used by Lance Armstrong, among others, to boost endurance during the Tour de France, which is illegal. Blood doping involves removing a half-litre of blood from the athlete a month before a race, waiting for the body to regenerate the lost red blood cells and re-infusing the initial blood 24 hours in advance to provide extra oxygen-carrying capacity.' http://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/news-and-comment/jeremy-laurance-blood-spinning--legal-but-controversial-8471887.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoo Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 Thanks for clearing that up. I'm still confused as to how its allowed though, I thought that the athletes in the league were supposed to play to the best of their abilities without using external sources, to me it sounds really fishy.

Fearthainn Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 Great stuff! They're only 5 points ahead now, but yeah probably a big ask. Will certainly enjoy MOTD tonight anyway!

Dalziel Kane Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 I wasn't even aware MOTD was even on, and it's always difficult watching than awful show, but have a TV at hand and haven't missed much, and will get to see our highlights against WBA, even if the miserable cunts only give us a few moments of coverage or put us on last as always I think I can tolerate a watch tonight of all things. Reading vs Chelsea is on now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pete0 Posted January 31, 2013 Report Share Posted January 31, 2013 Not a bad player, would have been happy to have him here.

pete0 Posted January 31, 2013 Report Share Posted January 31, 2013 Shocked at this considering it's his nice guy image that wins him votes over Ronaldo.

rubecula Posted January 31, 2013 Report Share Posted January 31, 2013 (edited) I have a lot of empathy for invisible illness. Folks think you are healthy because they can't see the problem. Mental illness is like this As is Diabetes, etc etc etc. I am an atheist but I mean it with feeling and it is the best phrase I can think of, when I say "God Bless Him" EDIT: I was late posting to this thread so if it doesn't make sense read back two pages.

Dalziel Kane Posted January 31, 2013 Report Share Posted January 31, 2013 (edited) Completely overrated player if ever there was one. What did he do ? Take a good free kick, or pass ? People have spoken him up in the same category of Cryuff or Beckenbauer or Platini. It's all about opinions for sure, but I can't see beyond Beckham was simply an exaggerated fucking hyperbole individual. I can't wait for the day he actually does retire and say 'that's enough', and it won't be long now. Just have to wait for one or two further, media attention, unnecessary and ill advised swansong appearances, before that's the fucking end of it all.

Matt Posted January 31, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2013 I thought I felt a pang of sympathy for QPR fans, think its genuine. They didnt choose to have that tosser in charge. The reason I call him a tosser? He hired Mark Hughes and Harry Redknapp. Then he gave them both crazy amounts of cash in transfer fees and wages, giving false hope to their fans because all of it was spent on inadequate/shite players. 12.5m for Samba on 100k p/w - what does that make Baines, or any of our back four (including Hibbert!) worth? Just confirmed Jenas as well?! I think I really do feel sorry for the QPR fans. Next Portsmouth I fear.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Redknapp is possibly the worst manager at keeping a big squad happy, they have 30 players over the age of 21, can see this ending in tears. Already slapped Hill in the face buying 2 centre-halfs after bigging up how vital he will be for the relegation scrap. Of the players who they have managed to get rid off only Dyer is a permanent move and they received no fee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoo Posted February 1, 2013 Report Share Posted February 1, 2013 Surely Fabio, Young, Derry, Ephraim, AJ, Bothroyd, and DJ Campbell should have been off loaded. Fabio is on loan from Manchester United so he was never going to be off-loaded. He's shit anyway though so I'm glad he's still knocking around there.
