The Pigeon Detectives debut album is rather brilliant.

Agreed - Just listened to it and it is rather good, as is the White Stripes' new album - Icky Thump.

As he only played half of the season you can understand why he isn't.

In half a season he did more than half of those names in a full season.

The full table is here along with various slagging in comment section

THE PROFESSOR’S ‘TOP 10 BUYS’

1 Dimitar Berbatov (Spurs, £10.9m)

2 Benni McCarthy (Blackburn, £2.5m)

3 Javier Mascherano (Liverpool)

4 Obafemi Martins (Newcastle, £9m)

5 Michael Ballack (Chelsea, free)

6 Idan Tal (Bolton, free)

7 Carlos Tevez (West Ham)

8 Andreas Isaksson (Man City, £2m)

9 Tomas Rosicky (Arsenal, £6.8m)

10 Dirk Kuyt (Liverpool, £9m

Surely Samba should be in that list.

What a cracking start to tonights Darts....Taylor getting a nine dart finish.

Barneveld has just beaten Taylor 11 - 4.

Semis.

Van der Voort V Osbourne and Barneveld V Lloyd.

I think it will be a Osbourne - Barneveld final, with Barneveld retaining his title.

It's hardly important. No one cares who wins this tournament, it's nice if you do, but nothing more. I can understand people not liking it, but it seems the right decision. If he wants to play for England then he has a good chance of getting in the side next year, a couple of extra weeks of rest might just help him to feel that little bit fresher and might make the difference.

I do....I have money on England to win it!!

Don't for get that Debyshire is still playing in the tournement.

What a cracking start to tonights Darts....Taylor getting a nine dart finish.

Anybody watching the UK Open on Sky, nice to see the pub players getting the chance to play the pro's, pick of the 5th round draw is Part vs Barney.

Yep, Had my money on Manley to win the competition e/w. Shame he drew Taylor in the last round. I think that Adrian Lewis is looking pretty sharp as well. Had a small punt on him to win.

My mate who is a rabbit at the FA ( bit bigger than a mole..), reckons we are to play Sheffield United away in the first game of next season!

is this a sneak insight that Sheff United will be re-instated to the Premier League?

Unless you are part of the team, yes there is a fixtures team, at the FA.

For example the FA Cup draws have already been made for the early rounds and are released on a "for eyes only" basis to enable leagues to plan fixtures.

Yes but will anyone truley know who Blackburn Rovers are playing in the first game of the new season?

My mate who is a rabbit at the FA ( bit bigger than a mole..), reckons we are to play Sheffield United away in the first game of next season!

Well thats Sheff United away out of the window. I dont think one of these 'my mate works for the FA and they say we are playing x first' has ever come true!! Truth is unless you are extremely high up in the FA you will not know who we play first....and even the chief exec probably wont know until a couple of days before.

England rare 7/2 with Hills to win the under-21 tounement.

There are only eight teams in it. I fancy a flutter.

Downing and Dyer FFS.....neither of them useless #@?!'s are fit to lace Bentley's boots.

The decision to sign Nonda makes good sense in the light of the Sun's story this morning.

Sorry if I have missed something but have we signed him?

Nice to see Taylor saying 'Get well soon to Robbie Savage'.

just been announced bents was man of the match,

got a good applause for it as well.

fully deserved as well.

Hope fully McLaren will pick him tomorrow.

I think we should have a look at Vincenzo Montella. I think that Roma would be willing to sell and he may favour a move to the Prem.

IMO he is past it and we should be aiming higher - think he showed that at Fulham.

Ha Ha Ha just noticed this thread. Very funny.

Book of jokes required by Yorkblues.

Lot of fuss about nothing on here. The players are just hired guns who move around regularly for more lucre. Why do we keep getting so emotional? Has everyone forgot that by rights we should really be commenting on the impending departure of Gudjonnsen or Mido as Benny was only 3rd choice to replace Bellamy!

Make a good few million out of him and replace him with someone who will score as many next season and who we can make even more money out of next summer. Only rem to cut the management in on the rewards too! It might not be what we really want but it certainly does represent superb business acumen!

You make it sound easy 'make a good few million out of him and replace him with someone who will score as many next season'. I really cannot see us bringing in anyone who will score as many as Benni did this season. Hughes has done brilliantly the last two seasons with both Bellamy and McCarthy however I really cannot see him doing it for a third time.

Jesus, I'm going to have to take a week's holiday when this comes out.

Yeah it looks pretty good.

Any idea of a release date. Could find anything on the site.

I still feel that if Grabbi's goal, against Manure had stood (and it should have) he'd have been a legend at Ewood despite his subsequent displays.

Didn't he also smash one against the bar from about 6 yards out in the same game?

Ha Ha Lucash..... wanted wham to win as I didn't want spurs to get the points.

I wonder whether he watched his ex teammates beat Bolton today and move three points away from a European place?

Have a good one mate. You will be quoting your own posts next.

I don't think it's text language! Isn't there a filter which either translates this to human, or stops Jordan posting when he's had too many??
