Theres an awesome pic of kris boyd giving montero the business after a shoving match around the 80th minute

The scot was fired up

 

[n_huffhines]

It works, gets the crowd into it, but even if you don't like it, I feel it's more than made up for by singing Elvis in the 80th minute of every game

What do they sing? It's Now or Never?

What do they sing? It's Now or Never?

Can't help falling in love

We sing you are my sunshine at the 75th and can't help falling in love at the 80th

Our old mascot, timber Jim, had a young daughter that died some years back in a car wreck and those were her two favorite songs so that's why we sing them every game

The big sign the fans made:

Kris boyd putting lady montero in his place the first time he tried to start ****:

Saw this on Tiger Droppings and didn't see it posted here but rumor going around that Drogba might sign with Barcelona on a free transfer tomorrow...

 

[volball625]

Sport said that the club was not aware of Drogba coming to the city and deny any interest in signing the player.

Drogba is still a serviceable player, but I see him having a tough time getting on the field with all the talent on that squad.

Really has no place in the squad. Center forward is all Messi and he doesn't really take many days off.

I thought he was going to take a fat payday in china or something... There might also be a handful of mls clubs that could throw four or five mil at him :whistling:

Would love to see Drogba and kaka coming state side.

 

[milohimself]

I think there is a real good chance of kaka taking henry's designated spot in new york after the next world cup

 

[tvolsfan]

I'm sure that's how most of the English have felt for the last half century.

We're getting better. England isn't.

 

[Stupified]

I don't understand how either. A population of 50 million in a football hotbed.... England should be better than a perennial quarterfinals loser. Bad youth development or just bad coaching?

Just realized FSC is finally in HD in Atlanta for Comcast subscribers. Rejoice!

Aw, I like the retro feel of watching non HD FSC on a 52" Plasma. Lol

 

[volball625]

It's horrible. Mind blowing that they are just getting it to Atlanta. I don't think they have it anywhere in Tennessee yet.

I thought Comcast offered all the stuff everywhere at the same time... Fschd has been here at least a year

 

[volball625]

For some reason, they have been slowly releasing it to cities since they agreed with Fox Soccer last summer.

Bale signs four year deal with spurs :dance:

 

[Stupified]

Awesome! He'll be a legend at the club. Maybe that will help them keep Modric?

Maybe... Word is Madrid may offer Sahin and about $45million cash for him.

What it does is give me hope about the manager search

 

[Stupified]

That's not a terrible deal for either team. What would the Spurs do with $45 mil? I'm kind of a Bale fanboy so I'm glad he's being a TFL (or HFL).

You take that if you are tottenham.

 

[milohimself]

You take that if you are tottenham.

No doubt spurs would come out on top in terms of value, but are there any am's out there of similar quality that can be had?

 

[volball625]

You're not going to replace his quality but Sahin is really good and you have all that money to address other places in the squad
