    World Cup 2010

    yea the latest version i've seen has milner on the right and JC on the left. personally i would have had A. johnson on the right but oh well also i bet sven is regretting having settled for that draw with portugal now. nothing less than he deserves. boring bastard.

    World Cup 2010

    i think the point is not that he's an incredible player but rather his inclusion in the team would probably mean that gerrard was no longer playing out of position, and furthermore that the formation would be altered to 4 4 1 1 / 4 2 2 1 1 /whatever you call it. re: rooney on his own up front...

    World Cup 2010

    Apart from the blatant handball the worst decision was the 3 minutes additional time. The ruckus at the end lasted more than 3 minutes + there were 4 substitutes in normal time + Elano's injury and various other incidents where players went down writhing around in agony.The correct amount would...

    World Cup 2010

    yea. and regarding the hypothetical: a defender deflecting/touching the ball doesn't render the player onside, but rather an attacking player not touching the ball does. i'd like to think we're going to see brazil's defence giving something of a test tonight, especially if drog starts. has the...

    World Cup 2010

    one of the worst games of football i have watched. honestly embarrassed to be an english football supporter today. i agree the whole team underperformed but there are some serious issues with the formation/strategy as well. Both rooney and heskey were coming incredibly deep to recover the...

    dos santos was all over the middle of the park - absolutely immense. like to see him fit back into the spurs team next year.

    World Cup 2010

    zonal marking is amazing. very crudely: i think spain are too one-dimensional to go all the way. that zonal marking analysis got it pretty spot on with how narrow they were. a team with two disciplined banks of four is going to continually frustrate them. teams with serious counter-attacking...

    UK GENERAL ELECTION THURSDAY MAY 6th 2010

    it was done for one of those completely vacuous newsnight closing features. the guy said it was a 'challenge' writing a pro-conservative song so whilst not strictly tongue in cheek, it wasn't serious either.

    being that it originated from an error can we really say there is an idea behind it?

    Pointless But It Does My Head In

    haha that's tragic. continuing the existentialist theme - i'm sure somehow or other starting your own memorial is the ultimate expression of living in bad faith. if sartre were alive today he'd probably have to write a new edition of being and nothingness just to include this example :D

    Goldsmiths: But Is It Art?

    Did anyone catch this on bbc4 yesterday? The bloke getting vexed about his conch shells was funny for a brief moment then I started feeling sorry for him. Same goes for the Scottish guy who was openly, and quite painfully, labouring to fit into (what was presented at least as) the goldsmiths...

    World Cup 2010

    Someone's gotta support North Korea - IIRC only the highlights of games that they win are getting broadcast back in NK. So much like a lot of other stuff going on in the world, if you're north korean the world cup might as well not even be happening. edit -back on topic: En-ger-lund, obviously...

    shacklewell arms is quality. will say one thing tho and that's the bar area is way too brightly lit, especially if you're stepping out the backroom ambience into it
