Congrats to Ak again for this thread which seems to be getting more and more visitors and more popular - partly due to 606 deliberately turning people off
 
I just cleaned a big, big carpet for less than half a crown - now let's see who can follow that one -:)
 
Where is Norway today - was the excitement of last night too much for him and despite Norwegian alcohol prices he celebrated too much?
 
Wow Leo you you have been busy on here today!
Yorkie How much longer are you in India?
Sandy glad your better?
Frenchie get that shed ready so you can house more lucky bordeaux!
Hello to Theo and BBW
and a belated coffee would be nice Ak;)
Hope I havent missed anyone out!
 
I go off and do some work, come back and find I've missed out on the <bubbly> 1000 <bubbly> prize :emoticon-0120-doh:

Never mind, the way Lenny is going I'm sure 2000 will be coming round soon :wink:

Thanks Norway, much better now but does mean I'm back at work :(. I was enjoying mattress time (well as much as a sick person can)!!!
 
I feel like i've just entered the twilight zone. This is all a bit different and new compared to 606, old technophobe like me.
 
welcome hockdude...i'm a newbie too, takes some getting used to but there are definite advantages over 606...though it's a little weird to start with!

*waving at Norway*...um...;)
 
This is from the Mboro boss

A supporter got the ball rolling by asking; 'Have you ever considered swapping Joe Bennett and Andrew Taylor over down the left?'

Mogga: 'No, not really. Joe Bennett has all the attributes needed to be a top modern-day left-back. If he doesn't go on to play Premier League football with Middlesbrough then I have absolutely no doubts that he will go on to play there with one of the top clubs in the country. I know how many scouts come to our matches and I know who they are coming down to watch. I make sure I know who they're coming to watch. Believe me, they're impressed by Joe Bennett. Stuart Pearce spoke very highly of him after the Portsmouth game on Saturday. I've tried swapping them(Bennett and Taylor) over in training and it doesn't really work. Andrew isn't mobile enough to play left-back, if we play him there then we need to play a player in front of him who will offer him some protection defensively, much like Stewart Downing did when he was here. Downing was very talented on the ball, of course, but we all know he did a good job for the team and offered the team protection. Joe isn't intelligent enough on the football pitch yet to play left-wing. He's better coming from left-back, over-lapping with the winger, where he can get himself into a position to beat a man or put a cross in. Andrew is better in midfield because he allows Joe to get forward, and he is experienced enough to know how to use the ball and the space. Joe Bennett is one I want to keep, of course, but if someone comes in with big money then we have to think about it. His wages aren't a problem for us but he is a player I can see a club paying 6, 7, 8, 9m for in the future.'
I beg to differ and I think MM would too!!
 
The other nest is very quiet - I think the BBC removing it from the club site has made it more difficult to access - the Dark Nest seems to be thriving :)
