Went to FC København - FC Nordsjælland last night, which ended 4-1.

My thoughts on the game:

A. FCK are a very, very good team, FCN could really only threaten them from set pieces.
B. Parken is a very nice stadium.
C. The match day experience at Parken pretty much covers every single bad thing about modern football, from the overenthusiastic PA announcer to the mascot and the cheerleaders. It felt much more like attending a commercial event than a sporting event and it really reminded me of why I don't attend hockey games in Sweden any more.

I asked a 25-year old out and I'm 19. Is this a good or bad thing?

Did she say yes?

Anyway, if you asked her out you probably like her and it's not like she's some old dinosaur, so who gives a fuck? Enjoy yourself!

He's 21 and has played an amazing 2 games in the Chilean top division. It is highly unlikely that he'll ever become much more than a mediocre player in Chile, much less earn a move to Europe.

I don't think it'd be too far fetched to assume that she may have been given some form of disciplinary action by her employer, perhaps even having been at risk of losing her job/licence.

New car can play mp3's right off a USB drive \o/

Going to come in handy tomorrow when I drive to Copenhagen.

Had no idea some dinny nurse/receptionist had given info about Kate Middleton over the phone to someone she thought was the Queen and now the womens gone and killed herself. Without meaning to sound harsh she cant have been the sharpest tool in the box could she, actually thought the Queen and Prince Charles were on the phone to her

EDIT: Turns out it was the Nurse who had been put on the phone after the receptionist took the call.

I don't see the humour.

I've come to the realisation that I am a worse (and much slower) writer in Swedish than I am in English.

Yeah, I should just let you continue your stupid, yet incredibly predictable conspiracy theories unopposed.

It's absolutely hilarious to read all the utterly moronic things that gets said by otherwise completely sensible English people whenever Blatter or Platini come up in a conversation. The ludicrous persecution complex you people have is just pure comedy.

Platini's already given France the whole tournament in 2016 despite them having hosted major tournaments recently.

1998 is hardly recent. May as well say England shouldn't have been in considered for the World Cup because you had Euro 96.

Like I said when this was discussed previously, this doesn't have to be a bad idea at all, everything just depends on how UEFA choose to organise it. If they do everything right this could end up being a glorious, continent-wide celebration of European football.

Chris Brown had a concert in Dublin on Monday night, and his departing words were: ''Dublin is my favorite part of the U.K'' .... We've been independent of Britain since we declared a republic in 1949, hence REPUBLIC of Ireland.. Really annoys the majority of Irish people when others refer us to as part the U.K. A few weeks ago, one of the Irish shows interviewed a few Americans in New York, and a few idiots thought our population was anything from 400,000 to 60 million. What do they teach them in America?

Geography isn't a prioritised subject in the American school system and isn't taught to anywhere near the same degree like it is in Western Europe largely because most Americans have absolutely no use for it. They have Canada to the North and Mexico to the south and those are the only foreign countries your typical midwestern American need to know anything about.

Made use of the HBO on-demand service we got a couple of days ago and watched 12 Monkeys for the first time in ages.

Spectacular film, both Terry Gilliam's directing and Brad Pitt's acting are excellent.

Only been watching intermittently but Santon looked really good during the first half. First time I've had a chance to see him play since he left Italy.

Can't really compare English fees with German ones though. The financial situations in the two leagues couldn't possibly be further apart.

The Premier League and the Bundesliga are pretty much the complete antitheses of each other as far as the financial side of things go.

Like I said, his contract is running out and he/they don't want a new one. It pretty much mirrors the Kagawa situation.

It makes sense that Dortmund would let him go, his contract is up after next season and he wants a significant raise so they'll likely be looking to cash in on him while they can.

Doesn't really seem likely that he'd be a United target though, unless one of Welbeck or Hernandez are on the way out.

Finished xmas shopping for my girlfriend, mum and dad. Just need to get my sister something.

This reminds me that I need to buy Christmas gifts for all my annoying nephews and nieces, I'm only getting like £25 this month though and I am fucking skint already.

Celebrating Christmas with your adult siblings is awful.

How much did you watch anyway?

Either way, I think there are plenty of enjoyable performances in this series. Guys like Rothstein and Capone are tremendous.
