Nailing my colours to the mast

[maria]

Just curious, is that avatar your own pussy, because (in case you were wondering) that's not my cock.

Lol yes, that is my pussy... Oliver.

Chipotle again?

Lol no. That's real Mexican food according to rich Columbian kids.

Point raised from this is that we've all said things and changed our minds......its just that when you do nail your colours too early, too hard, people tend to throw it back in your face.

I stated back in November Id happily never see Dempsey or Siggy in the shirt again. Total backtrack on that one for me, both proving their worth and stepping up.

I'll be more than happy to see either of them play - when their standard of play justifies it. A couple of goals and improving general play suggests that Sigurdsson is worth a place - but Dempsey? Nah - beyond his 2 goals against Manure he has done nothing to suggest that he's worth playing. Since he has vacated that space he operates in, Bale has had space to operate and thrive in. Dempsey has continued to be a major disappointment and will have to improve immeasurably to justify a starting place. Mind you, the same goes for Adebayor, who has been dreadful.

How did this thread turn into Ratty the rapist?

Also, Ramsingh. Lager or car.. not both. Be responsible... or something.

His 8 assists or his other 6 goals.

I think Dempsey has improved ten fold but to be fair, that didnt take much more than actually kicking the ball at least once during the game....but no, I think his link up play and touch was starting to look alot better.

Siggy looks like a different player, and the confidence from a standing ovation last night wont do him any harm. Good to see him taking on players, scoring goals and having a go.

Oh. A Yank player gets dissed, and a Yank suddenly wants to bring the thread back on topic! Amazing scenes!

I fucking wish I owned a sombrero. When I went to Ciudad Juarez as a child all I wanted was this pretty blue and silver sombrero... I don't remember a whole lot from that trip but THAT FUCKING SOMBRERO...

God, I can be such a stereotype.

I have a fucking awful pic of me in one, I was uber wasted pulling a face and looking particularly fat that day lol

I would keep being a graphic designer, but not where I currently work.

yeah whatever - what about his all round pants performances, how he couldn'd hit a cows arse with a banjo - or the fact that he has been responsible for more attacks breaking down than the German machine guns during WW1?

It wasn't a criticism, it was a light hearted observation.

As for your observation that there was no organisation under Redknapps management, then I can only put that down to a lack of understanding of the game.

On the basis that if you couldn't see it, then you don't understand it.

You're right. Clearly, I have no understanding of the game.

For that matter, maybe Bale doesn't either:

Bale enjoying AVB style
Bale also paid tribute to Spurs manager Andre Villas-Boas for adding a new dimension to his game since succeeding Harry Redknapp at White Hart Lane.
"Harry was more, 'Go out there and play how you feel and express yourself'," Bale said. "With Andre, there's a certain shape and a style we play. I think Harry was more free and let you do what you want. Andre does that too, but there's a lot more tactical work.
"I think it's something that's good to learn. We've done well this year and I think that's down to our defending as well as attacking."

Are you housebound or something?

Actually, I was at work when I posted that. At home right now, and headed back to work in a few minutes.
