Liverpool sign an unproven striker who's barely touched a ball this season for 12 million.

Chelsea replace him with one of the leagues top scorers for almost 5m less.

Liverpool really are awful in the transfer market.

As much as I like winning, I feel bad for some of the teams we beat.

Queens Park for instance, the only amateur football side in a professional league in the world (As far as I know), being paid absolutely nothing, and they concede a 92 minute goal against Rangers in the biggest game they'll ever play, in front of a crowd 100 times the size they usually play in front of and on TV for probably the first time ever.

Would have been epic if they got the draw.

Graham Poll (and Mike Dean) probably know the offside rule tbf.

It was Ferguson who said it was Ba.


Graham Poll gave someone 3 yellow cards in a single game, I wouldn't assume anything.

I'll take both those bets.

The MLS season is over at this time of year, he'll be in London with his family for Christmas.

Do not give CV's to the same stores 2 days in a row.

Firstly, it will piss them off and secondly, it makes you look desperate and/or like you're applying for so many places you've accidentally applied for the same place twice without realizing, which looks bad on you.

Yeah, Evans is only in that position because he's marking Cisse, if he was onside he wouldn't be there. I'd have given that offside.

tbf the cost of stuff in Australia kinda negates the 'lots of money' thing.


To be fair the only things that are much more expensive in Australia than in Britain are rent/property, alcohol and clothes.

The rest isn't vastly different.

eg. A normal pub meal - steak and chips for example, is about 7/8 quid. Supermarkets aren't hugely more expensive either.

The below shows the price differences between London and Sydney, not a huge difference. 10% higher on average but the wage is 45% higher on average.

I can't see Chelsea signing Falcao while Torres is still there.

All it means is you'll have a 50m purchase earning 200k a week on the bench every week.

If they do sign another striker I can see it being someone cheaper, then replace Torres in the summer when they have their new manager in.

City's average attendance is 47k.

That not a made up figure, that's a fact. Just because some of them don't go to the games doesn't mean the demand isn't there.

Wigan do a similar thing, that's the reason they have lots of empty seats.

Bullshit they have.

Anyone that thinks City regularly have 47k people are probably stupid enough to believe that we had over 70k turn up against Cluj when the Stadium was half empty, after all, that was the official attendance.

City will need a 60k seater stadium seater eventually, but until that demand is there it makes absolutely no sense to do anything more than make plans. Otherwise its just wasting money.


Do you think City care how many people turn up?

If 47k people buy tickets, they get money whether they turn up or not.

So if 60k people want to buy tickets you may as well expand the stadium to allow it, even if they're not all to go.

Quite clearly the demand is there.

What if they waited until he turned 24? Which will more than likely be deadline day


His contract runs out when he's 23 though. If Chelsea offer him a new one and he turns it down they're due compensation regardless of when he moves iirc.

Sturridge is under 24, so Chelsea would be due compensation.

Which would be about 10m since they've ended up paying city about 6m for him now.

Because until the point where they actually need a bigger stadium they're just paying to have more empty blue seats. Would kill whats left of the atmosphere, drive down ticket prices and, for all you know, the demand would never actually materialise. From a business point of view it's a stupid idea, and if City are committed to being run sensibly from now on (as they claim they are) then they need to start taking decisions from that point of view.


They've had an average attendance of 47k for a few years now, that's near enough the full stadium.

Why wait for the demand to hit then have to wait 2 years until you plan and construct the expansions?

If you know demands coming you may as well start now.

Far Cry 2 was shit.

I've not yet came up against a Lion or Shark yet in FC3. I'm scared.

I did come across a bear. He ate a full round of AK47, then me.
