<Bigg>

You get an extra "g" aggain for that last post. The difference between me and you and <Teem> is that you and <Teem> make puns that actually have logic, gusting up to genius, behind them.

<Martinez> is no slouch either.

I knew what a <helpmate> was, but I didn't think of that until you reminded me. I still don't know what a <helpmeet> is, but I have a general idea. I think it's the politically correct term for the "paralympics," where various <differently abled> folks get to have an <olympic track meet> against each other, with <help> from <regularly abled> folks who ferry them around in electric carts and such.

I haven't actually seen a <helpmeet> but I saw highlights on youtube.

<Bigg> for example- your <helpmates are usually a problem>

Literally chess helpmates *are* problems, and husbands/wives are certainly problems as well.

If that's what a "helpmate" is.

The Code is an Aussie film set in the country's capital: http://playmakermedia.com.au/produc...

FIRST GOAL OF THE SEASON FOR <Moose Dembele> AND TOTTENHAM ARE UP AND RUNNING AGAIN!!!

whee I'm watching Saturday's fixture v Bournemouth right now-

We're number 2! We're number 2!

lol "Moose" Dembele and that's his real name too.

<Teem> Jinx! Your fine pun seems indeed to have helped a mate find his way to the forum.

<Doggimus> ta, I'd forgotten all aboot that.

<Doggimus> THE CODE is a TV show of two (2) seasons, as you know, but I just found out. I'll start watching episode 1 (one) tomorrow.

I just found out about the second season yesterday. Missed it when it was aired, it's been taken off the station's movie-on-demand archive, and hasn't been ordered by my library.

You here for a bit of a season now or you gonna disappear for spring training again? lol

Well spotted re my forum!

The thing is this... <Harold Lime> is soooooo popular on this site he's had to close down his forum due to the overload of interest ....it just got ALL too much for him.. I'm his agent <WIN WHAN SUOHN>

<Hozza> Well met! I won't be disappearing for spring training, since it's the most exiting part of the world footy schedule and I'll be staying current around 1-2 days behind the actual results.

For example I'm only a day behind now- about to watch the ManU-Chelsea fixture in a few minutes and I'm looking forward to it.

I doubt Spurs can catch Chelsea but I'm hoping Merino's extremely strange, and extremely boring, United squad can come up with an inspired performance.

QUESTION: is Merino's edition of ManU every bit as boring as Van Gall's?

I'm thinking it is. THEY HAVE SOME OF THE BEST PLAYERS ON THE PLANET AND NOT ONE OF THEM CAN BLOODY FINISH.

The only player who can finish on a regular basis is <Zlatan> and he's pushing 60 now.

<Pogba> cannot finish. I could show you twenty instances from the past month alone where all he's got to do is steer the ball into the net and he skies it.

Maybe he'll become a great player, but at the moment he's not even a reliable player.

Mikitarian is the only other beside <Zlatan> who plays with any energy or creative spark.

lol United.

FA CUP SEMIS next week and both fixtures look like they'll be corkers.

I can't wait= I wish we had Danny Rose and Victor Waynama and Erik Lamella fit for Chelsea next week but even then I have my doubts we could beat them.

Conte's got his heart set on a double and just think- if he'd inherited a squad that had finished in the top 3 last year he might even be looking at a treble.

Chelsea look monstrous, just monstrous, game in game out.

The Chelsea-Palace game was grand though- Did you know Palace now has every single African international on their squad? It sure looks like it lol.

Jose did ... oh you've not watched it yet ... I'll hold back on that then .. ! lol

Just to say Jose IS getting there ! Even tho his post match interviews are beyond parody now .. ! lol zzzzz !

Oh and coz I follow Daaaaarrrrbeh ... I know much more about the Championship than I do the prem ... just letting ya know like lol

I'll put a TOP TEN footy list Ooooop on ere shortly of all that's annoying me just now in the beautiful game ...

<Hozza> Yes quite right- What a game! I don't think I've ever seen a manager outplay another manager so massively.

<Merino> OWNED <Conte>, and on the pitch, <Herrera> OWNED <Hazard> lolol "man to man marking", and <Rashford> OWNED the Chelsea back three.

<United> pressed with such energy that <Chelsea> had no time on the ball, no time to establish a rhythm, let alone an attack.

That was also the most exciting game I've seen this year.

FOUR POINTS! <Spurs> only 4 points back of the title now.

I think it's really important that <Spurs> show they can play their game against <Chelsea> in the FA Cup Semi, the same way <Spurs> have been imposing themselves on all other opposition, and producing goals from such a wide variety of sources.

Even MOOSE DEMBELE scored, hammering one in with his great antlers. No goalie in the world could have stopped that.

I look forward to your TOP TEN footy list of annoying factors--- I'll add one of my own after I see yours.

If <Spurs> keep up their record breaking string of consecutive wins, <Chelsea> only has to lose one (1) more league game, and then draw another, for a <Spurs> title to become a mathematical possibility.

On you Spurs!

<Spurs Schedule>- looks a little tough to me:

1. <VAR>'s

We NEED this ... I'm just sick and tired of seeing officials getting it wrong .. The game is too fast for them now ... They need help .. Technology is there to be used ... use it.. .. The France v Spain game is an example
