    My exams start on Thursday and I have yet to open a book. Who the fuck thought it was a good idea to have them straight after Christmas/New Year? Do it before Christmas and be done with. :mad:

    Ugh, no. I used to love post-Xmas exams. Plenty of time to prepare :P

    Never to be trusted, how much would you have won if they Arsenal had won?

    Also darts final, Taylor v Van Gerwan, on right now.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 42,605 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lord TSC


    Not much. €2 if Arsenal had won. €3 if Walcott had scored.

    Not a big gambler :P Still, would have kept me going for a few weeks with the way I bet :P

    Liverpool sign Daniel Sturridge to prove that a fool and his money are soon parted. Another player who has no brain but an ego and a total waste of money.

    I am sure I will be proved wrong, but I can't think of many reserves at big clubs being sold to another big club and actually being any use.

    I can think of first teamers but not reserves. Any suggestions?

    also whats up with the weather, its january and in double digits (plus) - seems odd.

    Few reliables on twitter saying £12m. Oh Lawdy.

    Off the top of my head:

    Sturridge (City to Chelsea)
    Silvestre (Utd to Arsenal)
    Benayoun (Liverpool to Chelsea to Arsenal)

    all been misses. Can't remember that many hits alright tbh.

    was he a reserve though? I really meant in England. Italian clubs have a history of mental transfers.

    How about Darron Gibson? Done pretty well for himself at Everton.

    I'm surprised they went for him because he wants to play as a striker doesn't he and says he doesn't like playing out wide. Suarez is far better than him for the position up top.

    Benayoun did very well with Arsenal. Would have loved to keep him but he wanted to be playing more and cant blame him. Hasnt happened though.

    Really? They should of been able to beat them comfortably without Mata even Liverpool hammered them handily.
    Loving Charlie Brooker's 2012 Wipe on BBC at the minute.

    Saw it last night. One bit drags, mainly cause the source material ain't funny, but otherwise a brilliant show.

    Can't wait till the new series starts in a few weeks...

    QPR coped with chelsea pretty comfortably all game, so alarm bells should have been ringing at half time. And everyone knows Mata is by far chelsea's best player. Everything goes through him really. Completely different team without him.

    Surely Hazard and Oscar should stand up they spent 60m on them. I haven't seen them play a lot this season but the way people banged on about Hazard beforehand I was expecting more from him. Mata is undoubtably their best player but Qpr were VERY bad last weekend at home to us, it could of been 5 at half time.

    London, what a helluvatown! Can't wait to get back, didnt do half as much as i wanted but loved every minute of it.

    The definition of desperation must be looking for "Transfer News" on twitter. But I always do it even in January :o

    Meant to say earlier congrats to the guys getting married & hope you`ll all have more luck than this guy.....
