Youtube Zero Punctuation review removed, here's an alternate url http://www.escapistmagazine.com/articles/view/editorials/zer%20opunctuation/1394-Zero-Punctuation-bioshock

Yeah, I was struggling a bit for the last midfielder, I was thinking Barry, Barton or N'Zogbia, although Barton and the Zog have yet to show fully what they can do this season when they get a good run in the team in their favoured position.

Kate McCann is being named as an "arguido" by Portugese police. This is being generally translated as "suspect" in the news but it's not quite that simple - It's a legal classification and both police and the person being interviewed often request the status because it gives them certain legal rights - It gives the arguido the right to silence and a lawyer and it gives the police the right to ask a much wider range of questions. So "suspect" doesn't automatically translate as "We think you might have done it" because there are other reasons for setting that status. However, friends of Kate McCann say the plod are suggesting to her that they found traces of Madeleine's blood in their hire car and she fear's she's going to be charged over her death. http://news.sky.com/skynews/article/0,,70131-1283158,00.html Completely unsubstantiated, but a friend-of-a-friend in Portugal says the papers there are saying today that police believe the couple (both doctors) drugged the kids so they could go for a meal and overdid it with Maddie - the evidence being the blood traces in the car and a needle found during investigations.

Let's try and salvage something from this thread. What do you think would be the best 11 of players from outside the top 4? I'd probably go for something like Given Richards Lescott Woodgate Bale Bentley Arteta Cahill Barton Berbatov Anelka

Anyone posted this awesome video review yet? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5IBkT0Oi97E&mode=related&search= Playing through on PC and it's the most spot on review I've seen

20,000 e-petition votes not worth the paper they aren't written on. I hope we get up to 40,000!

Cracking singer, although I'm a bit annoyed at the fella for popping his clogs now seeing as how he's cost me 2 pints cos 2 of my mates have them in their death pool.

Zero tolerance policing isn't about coming down harder on major crimes like GBH and Murder. It's the idea of throwing the book at people who commit minor crimes in the hope that reducing that will have a knock on effect on more serious crimes.

Will having officers tied up doing all the paperwork, interviews, arrests, giving evidence etc for some kid they found with a little bit of weed or some guy who double parked rather than being out there in a visible presence on the street really make neurotic mothers cancel their order for stab-proof vests?

Had to resurrect this thread for this

Signed Marseille captain Habib Beye and Abdoulaye Faye from Bolton So long Solano - Thanks for the memories, again

Really? Do you have a cite for these daily anti-britain protests?

I don't claim anything. I follow do however follow my hometown club when I could quite easily have been a plastic scouse or plastic manc.

Noooo - last night saw the return of "Monty the Magpie". We've had ten years without the stupid bugger. One of my favourite halftime entertainments at away games is ripping the piss out of the sweaty oik in the lion suit, now I'd be a hypocrit. Edit: LOL, he's put the pics of his first day on the job on his myspace

Can't British Prime Ministers also stay in office for an unlimited number of terms?

I remember picking videos to rent when there were two sections in the store, one for VHS and one for Betamax Haha, exactly the same. I guess in 7 or eight years 6 formers will be sending around lists saying "OMG, Tellytubbies! Remember Raven? Lol!"

Doesn't matter, thanks to Dubya using the armed forces as his personal errand boys America has neither the resources or manpower to start a war with Iran even if it's needed. Mahmoud Arnydinnerjacket knows this as well, which is why he's become more and more bolder at thumbing his nose at the west since Operation Total Waste Of Time began.

Jesus Christ, you think that makes you feel old - wait until you start seeing people writing lists of "back in the day" of 2000-2010 when they were kids and talking about how old it makes them feel. I was 9 when the Simpsons started and only rich kids with Squarials got to see it.

I remember years ago finding it funny that Southampton had two very apt injuries at the same time, Peter Crouch out with a twisted knee and Michael Poke out with a broken finger.

Dyer's completely crocked again, stretched off with his leg fixed to one of those board things.

From speaking to people who were at the game it wasn't a majority, but I'm not going to try and defend it at all. There's a poll on a toon board asking if it was acceptable and thankfully a majority say no there as well. Some people have still been making excuses though such as that the chants have been going around for ages and stem from when he was featured in Private Eye as a look-a-like for richard reid the shoe bomber (ie that it wasn't because he was muslim or arab but just because of how he looked ), that he was giving them the V signs before they started the chants and that Boro and other clubs had previously chanted "shoe bomber" songs at him in the past. None of which are any kind of excuse in the slightest for the kind of behaviour exhibited. I have noticed recently there are more little drunken charva idiots on away trips who's main focus is making a dick of themselves and antagonising opposition fans, dunno if that's just us or reflective of a sea change in general.

If a Newcastle player did that I'd want to forget about it, it's certainly not something I'd bring up as a career highlight when he retired. It certainly wasn't the behaviour of a "true professional" it did show his true colours though.

Guess he'll return to the entertainment circuit now

Yes, the greatest moment of his career was to cheat. It wasn't self sacrifice. I'm pretty sure if he'd pulled out of the challenge because he couldn't make it without cheating to deny us a goal, and then gone to score at the other end instead (the right way to do it) then you'd be lauding him for that as well. Glad his careers over, hope both his legs fall off. Flying in from behind no-where near the ball could have ended Lee's career as well, it was a totally reckless challenge.

If he's got nee injury why's he retiring? Have a dislike for the little frodo bastard, mostly stemming from his scythe of Rob Lee when he was straight through on goal, with not even a pretence of trying to get the ball, then turning and immediately walking off shrugging his shoulders and mouthing "I had to do it" robbing us of 3 points at Old Trafford.
