"Honesty, you've gotte see this c**t's trainers." "They that bad, aye?"

Sorry 2 offend u m8. If you actually know the album you'll have realized that the 3 favourite Pixies songs I posted are all from Trompe Le Monde, so I have to ask why is it hard to believe that it's my favourite of their releases? Because you don't personally like it? Odd behaviour. Surfer Rosa has 3 or 4 of Pixies best songs, but it also has a lot filler. The 2nd half of the album is ordinary. Tony's Theme, Oh My Golly and I'm Amazed are all nothing songs that don't do anything for me. I think the Pixies were at their best when they went with a more sombre, melancholy type of song, and Trompe Le Monde showcases Pixies best songs of that nature IMO. Head On, Letter To Memphis, Bird Dreams of the Olympus Mons, Motorway To Roswell are all brilliant songs of this nature on Trompe Le Monde. I think it's a terrific album. Every song from Head On down to Najavo Way are all great tracks that never get skipped if they come on in shuffle, other than Lovely Day which I don't really like.

I don't think you understand technology, m8. Phones these days auto-lock after a period of in-activity. That's just peachy for most things, but when you're in the middle of a phonecall, it's a pain in the hoop. Pls educate urselgf. #uptodate #violasattheready

Having a shocker here tbphwy. Or maybe I'm just thick?

I managed to edit it before you hit submit = a win for me. edit: it's a testament to P&B that I knew somebody was going to make that shite joke within 3 seconds of my spotting the error. And viola, less than a minute later there it is.

When you're talking/about to talk on the phone, and you have to move the device from your ear to look at the screen and up the volume, see if it's ringing, enter a digit etc and the thing is fucking locked. And then you have to spend 5 seconds unlocking it, and you miss whatever happens on the other end. Does my fucking tits in.

Gylfi Siggurdson was on loan at Shewsbury Town from Reading when he was 19. What an odd comparison.

How many Friday night games will we end up having this season? 5, 6? I don't personally mind them for selfish reasons, but a bit of common sense would be nice every now and then. Who is going to be enticed by the thought of spending the last free Friday night before Christmas freezing their baws off for 2 hours at a football game? Be lucky to break 1.5k.

Not really. More the other way round. p.s Fools Gold extended version is an excellent song. The rest of their catalogue is mince.

Did you make this thread wearing your Stone Island jacket on the way to an #awaydays game with the #boys?

I bought a pair of leather black and white Gazelles online 2 or 3, and they didn't last long tbh.

Most of them are also ugly as f**k. Why everyone is so in-love with pugs I will never understand. Hideous wee b*****ds. Mon the cats.

Well done to the Scottish Davis Cup team. Going to be funny if Andy and Jamie win the final. I doubt either of them(especially Andy) will ever elect to play Davis Cup ever again tbh. They'd be having Ward/Evans/Edmund and Inglot playing every rubber. Euro/Africa zone II awaits.

No he isn't. Murray's beaten him before 100%.

In 2005. When he was 20/21. We're talking about his form from 2008ish-2011ish when he got his illness. How fucking out of touch are you with football?

You would say that the 6th or 7th best striker in the world was world class, so why not the 6th or 7th best defensive midfielder?

Darren Fletcher was from 2009 - injury every bit as good as Essien, De Jong, Mascherano etc. If you're making a top 10 of defensive midfielders from that period, then he'd be in it everytime. As I said on the first page, go and watch the 2 legs of the 2010 Champions League QF between Man Utd and Milan and try and tell me Darren Fletcher wasn't an outstanding footballer.

A poke or 10p crisps.

In what possible way are Netherlands, Portugal, Sweden and Belgium similar sized countries to Scotland?

2010 he was at his best. Voted by his fellow players into the PFA team of the year ahead of Gerrard, Scholes, Mascherano, Ballack and Lampard(who scored 22 league goals)

Go and watch the two legs of the 2010 Champions League QF between Man Utd and Milan and watch Darren Fletcher's performance in those games. He was without question one of the best defensive midfielders in the world at around that period. One of the top 10 in his position. Does that make him world-class?
