That is what you call sod's law.

Impressive luck that!
Popped across to me old stamping ground, The Saints Web, to look up a Golden Post. But I got myself distracted by the main forum for 5 minutes. That Daily Fail/Martin Samuels article that -DTLW posted earlier was met with much more agreement and enthusiasm than here [none]. There are some on TSW that really don't like NC at all. What's the matter with them..? Do they find ambition and success a problem or would they prefer Saints to stay titchy and mediocre..? I would suggest they go and support Eastleigh, but perhaps the Spitfires have become a little too ambitious as well.
Excuuuse me, even I wouldn't want to be associated with posting that article.
So now England have called up Jack Rodwell after 1 good game, after being injured all season. Yet again calling up an undeserving player from a big club, when the likes of Cork have had much better seasons. FFS!
TOMW19 .
I did read the rest of that daily Fail thread , good sensible responses to the poison , here's one .
RE: Mr Cortese: Four years ago a Mr Liebherr, advised by a Mr Cortese, purchased a bankrupt League One football club which was within days of extinction. "We will be a Premiership Club in five years" Oh how the press chuckled whilst thinking of the pages of newsprint ahead and ordering another Gin and Tonic. "Hold the front page" I hear the cry in May 2013. Headline: " Club owner, Ms Katharine Liebherr and CEO, Mr Cortese have done exactly what it says on the tin. A broken club has been purchased, owner has NOT asset stripped, is in the Premiership (Within four years, incidentally), made a profit WITHOUT selling players (Chamberlaine wanted to leave, he was not voluntarily sold), upset the the football world by sacking a good manager and replacing him with an even better manager. And, the biggest sin of all, not fawned to the media by giving out transfer targets until the deal was done. Martin Luther King had a dream, Ms Liebherr and Mr Cortese et al have a reality.

Many congratulations (and condolences at the same time!) on reading the whole of that crap.
I wish !
No it wasn't , but several replies telling the " Journo " where he is wrong VERY wrong !
Just got round to watching that Di Canio presser in full. Brilliant.
He does also have to deal with it behind the scenes though, the big stick only works so long.

[nsfw]Right you are. Emilia never disappoints. Also Melisandre's not looking too bad.
That was one of those episodes that just seemed to end too soon. Can't wait another week.

[nsfw]Most of them end too soon. They could all be feature film length and it'd still not be enough.
Joffrey was great this episode, as was Cersei. I love it when the Lannisters go full ****.[/nsfw]
[nsfw]Someone is going to die soon. It's getting more and more tense and we have two episodes left. Also I'm really scared that something is going to go wrong for Arya - everything seems to be going too easy for her right now. Though I'm glad she's coming round to Sandor because he's not a bad guy really. Also I think it was nice to have a bit of a break from the Jaime/Brienne storyline, which has been great but was getting a bit stale towards the end of the last episode; and also the Bran storyline which has pretty much always been stale.[/nsfw]
[nsfw]Nah she'll be fine, she's had a tough enough time since she left King's Landing, she deserves a break. She has just had her "friend" smuggled away by a mysterious foreign woman and been kidnapped by one of the people she hates the most, even if he's not that bad.
I was more grateful for the Theon break. I really want to know who the torturer is, but the scenes were getting too much. And yeah hopefully they just forget about Bran forever.
Good to see Whitewalkers getting back into it, but I didn't notice Samwell pick the knife back up, so he's boned. Also I'm liking Daario Naharis.[/nsfw]
