Deffo!

Call me an old git but Jimmy Greaves was God! The greatest goalscorer this country has ever seen. 44 goals in 57 caps. That's some strike rate. As to your question as to whether to play Owen or not. Yup! Stick him in there.

The Daily Mirror ran the story weeks and weeks ago but didn't feel the need to sensationalise it by putting it on their front page. The nurses have a very tough job to do and deserve a massive pay rise in my opinion. Funny though how it's the three riches clubs in the country if not the world with some of the highest wages going to their players that have been such skinflints though.

I think you speak for all Arsenal fans there, both on Cashley C??l and Thierry Henry. You'll get the same sentiments, and you're probably right about TH14's private life in his decision to go to Barca, but it has definitely had an enormously positive effect on the younger players that have been coming through in the last couple of years. I've got nothing but respect for Arsene Wenger in the way he nurtures young talent. Just look at Fabregas. 20 years old and he's some player already. Bloody hell! What am I doing waxing lyrical about the Gooners? And me a life long Spurs fan too. By the way I'm not far behind you at 49.

Am I the only person in East Dulwich still with only five channels? I've been thinking of upgrading for a long time but don't watch enough TV. This thread has certainly put me off Virgin Media and I'm not sure I want to deal with the Devil (Murdoch). What to do? Oh! and get well soon Shambles.

Dang it! Can't do either Piers but a good shout and must do so soon.

Yeah! At last another Faces fan. Hooray to that. Plenty more where that came from. Three Button Hand Me Down

Navy blue and white. Anyway big hugs. God! what a bunch softies. Gotta be better than Tottenham's chocolate brown away kit last season. That really was shit!

You're right. Reading it again. It's very poetic. Send her a love poem Azul and the legover situation should change quicker than you thought.

Damn! I don't have an MP3 player or a beer belly although I'm working on the latter.

Exactly! And it did impact on performances at first but I think the team as a whole are right behind Martin Jol, you could see that in the goal celebration at the end of the four-all draw against Aston Villa and the performance we put on against Liverpool last weekend. Having said that I think spending 16 million quid on Darren Bent has so far been a waste of money. He's a long way off justifying his price tag. Anyway Thierry Who? You certainly haven't been missing him have you?

The new P J Harvey album (White Chalk) has hardly been off my sound system since it came out a couple of weeks ago. Completely different from what she has done before and I have all her stuff. Other listening pleasures over the past week or so have included:- Augustus Pablo Lee "Scratch" Perry The Heptones The Faces Ronnie Lane Primal Scream David Holmes M.I.A Bat For Lashes Martha Wainwright Any Winehouse

1,431 since March...I really should be writing that novel that I always said I would, either that or get a more interesting job.

I don't mind a bit of banter between our supporters but I thought you came on a bit too strong as a first poster. You're right about our board, bunch of idiots. Jol is indeed the best manager we've had in a very long time and hopefully we'll stick with him, better even than you're own George Graham but then I think it was just a plant. Mind you he did win us the Worthless Cup so he wasn't all bad.

I have a well tuned sense of humour Atila with one L. Just quit the aggressive and childish stance and maybe we can talk about football like proper grown ups. Anyway, six games unbeaten since the Arsenal game, admittedly four draws and only two wins but we are slowly improving. As for England on Saturday Lampard's got to earn his place back in the side. Gareth Barry has played really well and looks a perfect foil for Gerrard in midfield and should keep his place. Should be a pushover against Estonia but I'm a bit more worried about the Russia game especially with that artificial pitch. Surely that's some sort of unfair advantage they have there.

Atila, (there's two Ls in Atilla) you may or may not have noticed that there are quite a few other Arsenal fans on this thread who have not felt the need to resort to the kind of silly and pathetic little playground taunts that you've managed to lower yourself to with the minimum of ease and yet you say you've supported the Arse since '68. How come you show such signs of immaturity? Or are you as I suspect just another blockhead? We try to respect each other on here without feeling to the need to insult each other. Either behave yourself or f**k off. Also, European Cup Winners Cup as you've correctly pointed out yourself is now defunct. So that's two defunct Cups you've won and f**k all else. We've won two UEFA Cups as well as the the old European Cup Winners Cup. Just thought I'd point that out seeing as your such a stickler for facts.

Ungrateful cow! Dump her mate, she's not worth it.

Good joke and a very good point ClaireinSE22.(tu)

Michael, I think there is a difference between being old and feeling old or acting your age as some might put it. The powers of recovery might not be what they were but we can still out drink and out drug most of these young whippersnappers if we so desire and that's down to experience. I might be getting older but I refuse to grow up. Denial as has been mentioned is probably a good idea too. 50 is the new 30 by the way. Always keep your sense of humour because if you don't you might as well roll over dead. Sorry to hear about the diabetes but as others have pointed out it's containable. Chin up!

Good shout! Haven't heard them in years. Hippie or not Asset, I saw Little Feat back in the 70s and they were fooking dead cool n' funky and Lowell George played some neat slide.

Yeah! What Keef said. (Also, Spurs have won three European tropies) Arsenal...um..Fairs Cup '68? the year you started supporting them.

I have enjoyed some of Radiohead's stuff in a small way in the past but on the whole I find them boring, dull, tedious miserablists. I tired of them years ago. I blame them for other boring, dull, tedious miserablist shite like Coldplay. Bastards! Music for bed wetting students as someone else once said.

You can get a CD version of this on Amazon.co.uk. I may well get a copy myself as I don't have it. I got Pick-A-dub years ago though which is great.

Crystal Palace is another one too. Ooooooh! Aaaaaah! Not big on fireworks myself but I guess kids like 'em.
