    Yes, only the Americans and Canadians spell it without the 'u'.

    They're not organised until they have a clear hierarchy and do shit much worse than shoplifting or muggings or drive-by's. Until that point they'll be small time thugs like the Bloods/Crips in the US.
  3. capriccioso
    They're just street thugs. They're not organised at all.

    'Mikel is shit' makes all the rest of it pointless. We could wring any concession we wanted from a club like Man United in exchange for the services of Mikel.

    Let's just move to that province that Roman used to govern and rename ourselves as CSKA Abramograd.
  6. capriccioso
    Agreed, that stadium looked magnificent. I'll not have us playing in some shitbowl at Wormwood Scrubs or whatever.

    They've basically just swept the arse out from under the CPO then. Emasculated their say in the clubs affairs.
  8. capriccioso
    Can you tell us anything more? This is the first I've heard of it.

    Their credibility doesn't really matter. The Yardie's aren't no mark street thugs, they're international, and they're organised.

    London is famous for its Yardies. http://www.thisislocallondon.co.uk/news/topstories/884066.yardie_killer_twice_deported_before_triple_murder/ http://jamaica-gleaner.com/gleaner/20020225/lead/lead2.html http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/1999/jul/18/ukguns.theobserver

    Yardies.

    @Kezza, You're doing it wrong.
  13. capriccioso
    Yeah, Mikel has to play as a midfielder ahead of Oscar. I think we should go like this: Leaving Oscar on the bench to come on for Lampard/Hazard whenever they tire. 15 starts and 15 appearances from the bench would be reasonable for Oscar, unless he outperforms Lampard or Hazard. Oh yeah and whatever you say about Sir Alex, he wasn't the man who spunked 97 million on Mutu, Shevchenko and Torres.

    A chant is unnecessary at this point, he hasn't even done anything for the club yet. Let him play really well for a few weeks and then we can stretch our creative juices.

    It's hardly baseless speculation. Technical Directors/Directors of Football are supposed to be responsible for transfers. Unless we're paying this guy to do nothing, I remain convinced that every single signing since summer 2011 has been done exclusively by Mad Mike. Typically a manager gets little say when working under a TD/DoF, all they do is tell their superior what position they want strengthened. It is then up to the TD to decide which player fits that bill, and they can ignore the managers request if they feel like it. Of course all of the above still is speculation, but it's not entirely baseless, given on knowledge known from how continental sides operate with their TD's.

    Are United really going to spunk 30 million on a winger, when they already have quality out wide, instead of plugging an enormous hole in midfield?

    This is the greatest account of any war I have ever read. The guys at uncyclopedia should write a book http://uncyclopedia...._I_(video_game) 'The Zimmermann PM' :D

    I'm Catholic as well But I think in some cases abortion should be permitted, like rape. I don't want to see abortions happening just because the condom tore.

    Everything comes to an end. I think the USA/Western civilisation will fall from grace, to be replaced by the BRIC countries. They too will go downhill in a century or so and will be replaced by someone else.
  20. capriccioso
    No, but the war in Iraq is definitely not kosher. Saddam might have been an idiot but he never had WMD's.
  21. capriccioso
    That's all well and good but we have a population of 22 million and we're a democracy. We're not going to beat too many countries by ourselves.

    I think it will be a war of proxy for the next few decades, just like how the Cold War turned out. The US will get their allies to fight China's allies. But the financial systems aren't that integrated. China owns a lot of the debt that the US owes, but the US can say fuck you anytime to the Chinese and just stop buying their products and not repaying the loans. China can do the same, stop giving the USA it's products and force them to pay back the loans. Neither side are that far in that breaking away would mean economic ruin.
  23. capriccioso
    I do think you'll be in trouble against the Chinese if it's just the USA against China. You need allies to match China's industrial potential. Other than that the USA should be just fine against anyone it chooses to fight. Except Vietnam/any jungle type terrain that's very unsuited to war. Or Afghanistan.
  24. capriccioso
    Thats what happens when you're an unchecked world power for 20 years. China's rise at least means US politicians can't act like dickheads anymore, they have to think twice before deciding to intervene militarily offshore.
  25. capriccioso
    But are the British people capable of out-manufacturing China or the USA? Steel= war won. http://www.amazon.com/Freedoms-Forge-American-Business-Produced/dp/1400069645
