    It is a bit surprising that it is quiet as it seems to be the silly season for OCD Headpersons who insist on sending pupils home for wearing the wrong trousers or in skateland the wrong colour black shoes, pity they didn't concentrate on education rather than haute couture.

    I have just read two very conflicting stories being reported here in China. Both affecting Shanghai Shenhua. Firstly reports stating that Drogba and Anelka may have played their last game for the club amid rumours that the owners of the club are not in agreement over who should pay what for the daily running of this club that is far exceeding its income. The second rumour is that they are looking to bring in Ronaldo seeing as he has thrown his toys out of the pram in Spain.

    Attendances in China at Super League games average around 10,000 with a very poor standard of play. Ronaldo would soon be very bored of his game over here, games I have watched this season on TV have shown a very uninterested Anelka just going through the motions and putting in little effort. Drogba appears to be very frustrated at the standard of play and the officials when he fails to get a penalty every time he falls over.

    Apart from the fact that both Wales and France have won multiple grand slams, have played far better rugby and won more games.

    Yes it's so good! I'm starting to dislike Walt more and more though. Found it hilarious when he get Walt JR drunk and he was sick in the pool haha. Second best tv show ever behind The Wire

    I need to watch Breaking Bad, but I know how frustrating these mid-season breaks are so I'm going to wait until it's almost back on and then catch up. When I finished Game of Thrones season 2, I had the horrible realisation that I'd have to wait until April 2013 for the next one. I don't ever want to feel that way again. :(

    Well, if you say yourself that English rugby is similar to how I describe it's no wonder I have such a negative view of it to be fair. If England aren't running into people, they're hoofing the ball up the field and then the opposition get the ball and do the same thing. American Football also has a lot glamour about it which rugby does not.

    As for TV programmes, found out today that Glee doesn't return till January. How upsetting.

    What American football team do you follow, Lapras?

    You could join in on the AF forum. I need an ally as the only Buc's fan there. Tampa bay, all the way!

    I don't really follow one to be honest. Not sure who to support as I've never been to any of the cities represented (except for NY, but that was only for a short time) although I did support New England during the Super Bowl.

    Support the Mighty buc's then! They have a full size Pirate ship in their stadium. They fire the cannons every time there is a score.
