Got all 50
Took me 44 mins
The hardest one was the man holding the lantern

Bolton won't be able to control the African blitz up front 4-1 Rovers
-
1-0 Rovers
Danger players for Krakow (from the polish cleaner of my building, no pun intended)
Dudka and Brozek

Rooney and Gerrard aside, what other players in this 'host' would French supporters crave over their own pretty useful performers?
Maybe Carragher or Terry if Thuram was injured? Probably a better option the Squillaci, Boumsong or Mexes.
Coupet, Sagnol, Gallas, Thuram, Abidal, Viera, Makelele, Malouda, Ribery, Henry
I think you would put Gerrard in for Viera or Makelele but Rooney wouldn't fit into my attacking three. I think Malouda and Ribery are on par at least with Rooney and Henry is still the second best player in the world.

I have got a problem with him leaving us for another premiership club. If he decides to go, I would pack his bags to go to Barca instead of Liverpool.

I don't know if anyone has mentioned this movie yet, but saw Crank the other night. Excellent movie, original enough storyline, fast paced action, kept my attention the whole way through.

Given that most of the current French team aren't actually French, it's probably only a matter of time ... ...
Hello pot, meet Kettle
As long as they have the passport who cares

The calls for Beckham's recall are laughable. Whilst he is still a good footballer he is past it at international level. All he can do is cross it.
The amount of times Beckham has pulled something out of the bag to get England through should be enough. He may not be as consistent anymore but class in situations like this comes through.
1 cross, 1 freekick, 1 long pass could have been enough to score and put England back on the front foot. No player has stepped up yet
-
Tugay, Shearer, Berg, Sutton, Duff and Dunn
And in that order, all so different yet when they were/are in top form a pleasure to watch

If Kuyt is out for saturday it just means that Crouch comes in. I'd prefer Kuyt to play instead of Crouch, he's probably a bit easier for Oijer to play against, he knows all about him from matches in the Dutch league.
Hell no, Kuyt and Xabi have been Liverpools only shining lights so far this term. As long as the the midfeild does it's job Ooijer isn't going to need worry about Crouch and his overhead kicks.
-
I'm not certain about Liverpool being his next destination. A certain Mr Neeskins, now employed at Barca, made a special trip to see this game.
That is obviously a massive move for Lucas, I would much rather see him go there instead of Liverpool.
Where would he play though? There is no room anywhere on the backline they currently have.

I didn't rate Taxi Driver that much. I suppose for it's day it dealt with drugs, violence, kiddy porn so it was probably a very powerful image to those not used to seeing it everyday on the news.
If it didn't have the DeNiro scene then I don't think it would have sat up there for so long.
Also I thought that Gangs of New York was excellent.
-
Good game, the Bulgarians were very impressive. Both those Petrov boys were outstanding.
I thought Ooijer was quite good and Van Persie is fast becoming an absolute class act

Did you tell his dad, that the fans who help to pay his wages are lucky if the get a £1000 a month to live on.
Yeh mate I got right in his face nose to nose and said his son was a grub who should thank god everyday for letting him play in the blue and white halves.
As Bentley was born 27th August 2004 he could have played, so he must have been dropped by Peter Taylor.
I can excuse him for spitting the dummy then, kick the ball David, kick the ball, good lad :ph34r:

Trooper and I were lucky enough to speak to Neill's parents before the game (well Trooper wouldn't leave them alone ) and his Dad said that Rovers offer of an improved contract was only 1000 pound extra a week.
Of course I said to him "Tell him to bloody re-sign" and he said "He is too old to listen to anything I say anymore"
Apparently they are getting some stuff signed for us, I was going to give MH a call and get him to fax the contract over and I would have slipped it in between the jerseys and the flag.

Basel and Nancy are not going to be the greatest TV box office draws so I guess JW will just be happy to qualify from the Group stages without any red ink.
I don't know about that, Basel have the highest average attendance in Switzerland so I think it would be safe to say there TV numbers would do quite well. I think Nancy are the Rovers equivalent for size and supporter base in Ligue 1 so you never know.

managed to spend a lot of cash and get Rovers relegated (although in fairness he was in charge when we got back into the prem)
-
You might as well add Kevin Davies for players that were crap but then left and made good.
Another way is Sutton and Duff who were very good but left and did bugger all at Chelsea
-
I wanted to see him back before he went to Brum, if he adds some authority and experience to the defensive line and can add something in attack from the back I am all for it.
I think Villa is his destination though, surprisingly with all the extra cash they have flowing
-
Helen Mirren's performance is incredible.
No need for the sleeping pills afterwards then

Well I was just as disappointed with England as I was when Sven was in charge . Very little movement off the ball , no drive by either Gerard or the invisible Lampard going forward - that was left to Hargreaves who is supposed to be the holding midfielder . Nothing down the flanks until Lennon came on . Terrible passing and retention of the ball . English football is becoming the most slowest and predictable in the world .
McClaren spoke about us becoming a fast passing and movement outfit . Nothing to suggest that yet I'm afraid .
Not that I particulary care, but it is frustrating to see team with so much talent play such direct football. England have all the skills required to play posession football playing it on the ground but they just don't. Too much emphasis on speed and accurate long passing.
If they slowed down a touch, played a proper holding midfeilder role instead of a defensive one that sits in front of the back four and played the ball along the ground they would be much mroe entertaining and would probably pillage the rest.
As soon as the opposition sees McLaren on the bench and Crouch up front they know exactly what game is going to be played. Teams that sit back and soak up the pressure realise England will run out of creative options sooner or later, become frustrated and then there is a chance of mistake.

You've signed a gem
We also have some other excellent players looking for a new challenge that you might be interested in paying too much for

Or how about this for an anology if it helps...
Rovers are the guy who works hard, saves up, goes out for a few good beers every Saturday with his mates, has a holiday every year with the Mrs, before retiring early to his Villa in Spain to play golf for the next ten years, mortgage paid and with no debts and regrets...maybe a nice litte pot left over for the kids when he croaks it.
Problem being is that we are still along way from reaching retirement age and it is a matter of perception if that is actually a good life to lead. Me personally I would rather leave the Villa alone and just buy Spain
