Regardless of who wins which game lump your dough on United for the title by 5 points or more.  Easy money.

Well if he can't tell the difference between one tenner under the table and another over the table we can do without him! ;)

QuoteThis is getting interesting. What I seen of it today, Boro murdered the Goons, and should've won by more!!

Just like when united ended their last unbeaten run, Arsenal could go into free fall now, and without Thierry merce-Henry to steady the ship, could well slip out of sight.   I have looked into the future and foresee a thrashing at the Emirates on the hoizon.  Behold.

Quote"these events are pretty rare, given the size of the US and its population"

You only hear about the shootings over here when they involve white kids/people getting killed.   Wen it happens in black or hispanic neighbourhoods this stuff barely goes national never mind international.

Stay in The Flying Pig.  Basic, clean & lots & lots of craic!  You'll laugh your bollix off at the state of some of the drug dabblers! About £30 a night.

QuoteStrong rumours of Ronaldinho to the Bridge in the transfer window

Brilliant news for United.  Keep the Chelsea retirement home for passed-it prima-donnas going and Roman' billions will soon be pissed  away cockney-style.  Fork out 50M for Cafu & Inzaghi while you're at it!   :P

If the NICS refused to employ anyone who hadn't managed to hold down a job for at least 2 years in the private sector then it would be a more productive organisation by miles.

I made the mistake of employing a girl who was bright but had worked in the NICS for 3 years before joining us. From about day 2, there were complaints about being asked to work 5 mins extra to finish something etc. and after about the 5th complaint about "how we did things in the CS" I told her to go back to it if she didn't want to do proper work.  Next day she sent in a sick line for stress........

I would employ 50 McDonalds workers before I'd have another CS sponger on the payroll.  They are nothing more than dole-ites in office jobs.

US games (NTSC) don't play on European (PAL) PS2s and vice versa.  I am not sure whether Oz is NTSC or PAL but check any game box to see as it will be printed clearly on it.   Japanese games (JAP) seem to play fine on European PS2s tho.

QuoteThat might be a useful comparison if they were competing with Sunderland or Derby in Europe. How much do you think Shaktar Donetsk earn from the Ukrainian domestic game?

No but they are competing with Liverpool who earn about £40M a year domestically yet who Celtic have beaten at Anfield to put them out of Europe.  Liverpool played in the UEFA cup final in 02 and went on to win the CL in 05.   The only thing that stopped Celtic from building on their UEFA cup run was lack of revenue.

btw: Shakhtar have spent £50M in the past two seasons on players.  They have plenty of dodgy oil money.
