The 'couldn't think where else to put this' and decided it didn't merit a new thread thread

You could....

Nah, too lazy.

Zaza has scored five goals in six games for Valencia and Calleri has scored two in six for Las Palmas

Crikey.........

At the moment we also cant seem to get a proven Quality Striker in position to score.

Does our Manager know how to use Strikers is maybe a question to answer.

I just counted, and eight teams in the League have scored more goals than us. It's best not to compare the "goals against" columns. I do think that there is a certain breed of striker that does really well in Mediterranean clubs that doesn't always shine in England. West Ham just seem to have a knack for selecting them.

Easy mistake. I often mistake the Thames for the Med.

Referring to Prince Harry flying helicopters, an actual MP had this to say:

"Somebody else will tell me whether or not that's true but I've been told that's an absolute fact that somebody sits beside him and drives the helicopters for him."

Frankly, (imo) in the same class of stupid as:

His record is insane.... And he got another 2 in his 400th game...

Cristiano Ronaldo plays his 400th game for Real Madrid tonight:
Games: 399
Goals: 409
Assists: 112

baracks_a_hammer

Nearly four times as many goals as assists? Proves what a selfish so and so he is. Give me Carlton Cole any day of the week

I love reading the Flat Earth conspiracy theories.

I particularly like the idea that NASA has guards at the edges to stop people falling off.

I haven't heard of people coming back from the edge to tell that tale, so what do they do with them afterwards?

Brainwash them?

Intern them in prison camps?

Kill them (but then, why wouldn't they just let them fall off the edge?)

Part of me thinks they haven't thought this through thoroughly.

MrsGrey

NASA has guards at the edges to stop people falling off?? ;lol

I have got to read some of these... how do they explain day and night? And do they think all the other planets are flat too, or just earth?

And how do they account for the footage taken from space by, for example, the ISS ;hmm

;run

And what did they do before NASA?

Ah yes, Knights Templar ;wahoo

I work in Shipping, we send containers all ROUND the world.

Not once have I had a customer complain that their Shipment fell off the earth...

I will check with my claims department... Maybe Lloyds of London have a policy for this...

The Circumfence* takes care of it, of course ;thumbsup

I see Carlton Cole is coming to Crystal Palace in time to score against us.

Well we've joined in with them so we want some of it.

FlorinRaduclious

On a similar note, I detest these new sleeve sponsors. Ruins the look of the kit, and I detest the asymmetry. Clubs are receiving more income then ever with the latest huge TV deal, did they really need this extra income stream? Total greed. If you can't tell, I'll have you know I'm fuming about it.

An "unfortunate error" in subtitling led to Newcastle United being labelled "black and white scum" during the BBC's Match of the Day 2 programme.

Need to get the glitch in that software sorted!

Glitch? What glitch? I'd say that was on purpose ;whistle

What do you think it is that Arthur knows that he doesn't want you to find out ;hmm

Was thinking again on Saturday that a major problem with our pitch is that the grass is too long.
I am sure that the reason players hit passes poorly and often cannot run properly with the ball is that it seems to stick and not move with pace.
I have thought this for ages but maybe it’s just me.
Even though the pitch is watered heavily each half there seems to be no zip off the grass.
