Its going to be a long, long night. Actually weird being this nervous about politics ha, the pound took a massive hammering as soon as the Sunderland result was announced.

Leads down a very dark road that.

Isn't the £350m insignificant when you take into account the rebate, jobs, and the overall money that the EU brings the UK? Or at least that was what I thought the counter to that argument was.

C'mon mate that was bad - are you really suggesting that the UK isn't a democracy?

Also in fairness the monarchy is elected, we generally kick out Monarchs we don't like. Everyone knows that the Queen won't die until after Charles as quite frankly it is the will of the Great British public.

I am. I hate spending £350m a week on banana bending bureaucrats when that money could be spend on something useful like the NHS or Trident.

Hodgson being proper sour but I agree with him.

Nah both the old raids and weapons are still at Y1 level. Makes running Crota's End a piece of piss if you still need the Flawless Raider achievement. Only the one Y2 raid so far but there's one coming with the new expansion. I get everyones problems with the game and agree with most of them but I can't help but love it.

Atleast thats over after about 30 seconds, you have to put up with people pretending they know what they're talking about for 105 odd minutes

Got to have a rant here. Is there anything worse than the people who never really watch football suddenly talking like they know everything as soon as a international tournament starts, was in the pub earlier and my brother was talking utter bollocks most of the night about the England game (which he didn't watch)

Thinking about it, a lot of the attacking players for England are through the middle, and only Sterling - whose form has fallen off a cliff - is a natural wideman. So someone has to be shoehorned into that role. I thought Lallana was the obvious option, and he wasn't terrible, but his finishing was. Milner is too defensive now, Rooney, Vardy, Sturridge and Alli all look more comfortable in the middle, and Henderson and Wilshere feels like an experiment too far.

I don't know what the obvious fix is, really. Ordinarily I'd say its changing the formation, but the players look better suited to something like a 4-3-3.

He wasn't though? Russia played so deep that hardly anyone offered anything going forward, Rose and Walker were probably our best players. Lallana did a lot of dirty chasing and pressing work but should have come off at the end as he was tiring. We needed to do a lot more quick 1-2's etc as we was just trying to Man United our way in and Russia were happy to sit there.

Not the worst game though, although Sterling should just get sent home and not played again. Baffling why Roy didn't put Vardy or Sturridge on at 1-0.

Lallana wasn't bad.

Ah fair enough. I saw it on the Independent. Who are still claiming he was sent home =\.

Seen that yep, but also saw they're paying a bit less as otherwise more money goes to Pjanic himself if they pay the full clause. Think Roma end up with slightly more this way, something like that, but it doesn't matter really - it's way too low for a player of his quality.

It's a bit weird, all the journalists close to City are saying nothing's doing, nobody in Germany seems to be giving it much attention but there are still reports - and in actual newspapers too! - saying that it's on.

Sky reporting it too. Fjortoft has been hinting at it today.
