Anyone remember the cheat on the N64 version of FIFA where you can play "big head mode"
That's what Assou-Ekotto is reminding me of now. Put your hair band on man ffs.

I'd say he's looking for current players. Glen Johnson would have nailed down that position in his day.

My hair hasn't being cut in a year so looks like crabman.

Your not alone, I have no interest in horses or betting on them. Probably because I never win in the bookies, went Punchestown once by the end of the day I wasn't allowed bet on the same horse as any my friends , they all came home up money I went home down over a 100 .

Much of muchness as they say. I don't see the difference, except the horses have to jump over ****.

The horse races are long and boring and too many horses.

The dogs are quick and exciting and there's only six of them.

Wouldn't say I hate horse racing now, don't really hate any sport as such. Each to their own it goes without saying, it's just not my cup of tea and the same could be said for the dogs as well. Goes for watching or betting. Attended Punchestown a few times myself as it's only down the road from me, was alright day out. Rather bet and make money consistently in other sports than some silly long shot horse, like so many I know hope to achieve.

Not to mention the fact that nearly every race is rigged now. Especially in Ireland.

Worked in bookies for summer job for couple of years and crazy some of the things that went on

You can back horses to lose on exchanges now makes it a nightmare if you're not in the know.

Boxing betting has been most kind to me past year as Golf was year before.

That's true, but not from a fighters point of view. It's the judging where things get nasty.

You avoid those fights then of course.

Went to the dogs once and found it really boring. Throwing money on a random dog I know nothing about while drinking overpriced piss.

I think I like the dogs coz I've won money on them by just picking a dog by its name or guessing on their form. There's only six so you've a better chance. I've always walked away from the dogs either even or up.

He was actually a decent footballer, just rarely used that part of his game.

But handy enough in possession.

A random dog I know nothing about has a better chance of winning than the random horse I know even less about.

I got some tips from old lads in tweed caps at the dogs. Can't go wrong there...

Your drunken ramblings have gone too far with this.

No love for horse racing either. Seems to be a sport that isn't enjoyed without gambling. I'll place the odd bet on football if I see something with good odds, but that's about it.

If you're the person telling the wrestlers who wins he/she must be making a ball of money.

Ha, I wish!

Rock's odds have drifted in big time, opened at like 9/1 if I'm not mistaken a good while ago. Now down to 4/1 generally.

I only realised few days ago that Paul Bearer died last month. I thought he was older then 58. He looked about that age when I was watching it in the 90's.

Man who gave me few sleepless nights as a kid along with Undertaker.

Yeah I want something shocking and talk worthy to happen.

I probably would have went with Kane/Danielson though....especially if Ziggler ends up cashing in.

Part of me was thinking he might win, especially if he is hanging around til the next PPV.

But I reckon his odds shortening is just down to people sticking a few quid on and not knowing the storylines.
