Did you go to Hillsbro today Jasper ?I'm not asking to crow - just to talk about the game
Indeed. It was pretty bad and the referee and linesmen were utterly useless.
I thought the ref was poor on Saturday - but probably for different reasons to you. By the linesmen being weak do you mean the decisions against you in the last 10 minutes ?Hard to see from our seats TBH.
I think Arteta should be given a chance. It's all very well getting on your high horse about not blurring the lines on nationality but that horse bolted a long long time ago.
Virtually every other national side includes nationalised players so why not England?

England's main problem is having no decent strikers other than Rooney on a world level. We'd be better off playing 1 forward supported by 2 wingers and actually passing the ball to them.
Have we no pride? There aren't many jobs around that stipulate being English, and quite right too. But playing for England ought to be one of them. Otherwise what's the point?
I know it's poking the bear with a sharp stick but I'll be cheering for the Young boys tonight

And "naturalized", not "nationalised".)
I wouldn't fuck with the ref if he's Brazillian

Reports that the holding company is collapsing under it's debts but then they put a £9m offer in for N'zogbia.
Great goal by Inzaghi last night
