Apparently Yann M’Vila is headed to Inter. Remember he was a proper talent at one point. Would be interesting to see if he could re-ignite his career in Italy.

About time too, that XP antique.

The drive that got fried was only a year old. Seagate are dicks too, so claiming the warranty would cost almost as much as buying a brand new drive.

It did prompt me to finally upgrade to Windows 7 though.

A buy-back clause doesn't mean the player has to agree to a contract. If Vela genuinely doesn't want to go back he can just tell them to fuck off.

Nope, the rule is that no football can be broadcast on UK TV between 2:45 and 5:15 on a Saturday. Hence why Sky Sports missed the first 15 mins of a Classico last season

Sky should do what Swedish TV does to go around advertising restrictions and technically broadcast from a different nation.

No, I mean it wasn't supposed to be rape. It doesn't happen in the books, and the director is on record saying that it wasn't intended as such.

Yes, for the viewer it very clearly was, but for the purposes of the story the 'rape' never happened. It was just consensual sex between two parties and therefore will have no impact on the story.

That's a pretty big fuck-up from the director if true.

Aye, some of the restrictions bugged me too. I wanted five at the back with Beckenbauer behind Maldini and Baresi, when that didn't work my desire to keep a moderately realistic formation kept me from picking Zidane over Dunga.

Maradona doesn't have enough votes. Not only is he the greatest ever but from a strictly World Cup standpoint, he more or less won one all by himself.

And seriously, I'm the only one to vote for Cruyff?

The 58,270 capacity San Nicola stadium in Bari is reportedly sold out for the first time today for the play-off semi-final between Bari and Latina, 24 years after it was built.

Neither the 3rd place match of the 1990 World Cup nor the 1991 European Cup final managed that feat.
