Yeah, I guess. just a thought: Will there be any screwed-up nut-cases who decide that 'Na'vi' is too close to 'Nazi'? In this day and age of PC, it may happen. But regardless, a good film. I wanna be Jake Sully. I'm not ashamed to admit I fancy the sexy, 10ft-tall, blue, long-legged fit lass. I forget her name *drool*

What a freak. If I could do that.....ermm....I'd keep doing it haha. Urban running with that dude must be AWESOME!

By slightly dodgy, I only mean that it had me thinking of the smurfs throughout. It actually is very good. Maybe not the 'best' per se, but definately a quality film and, as I pointed out, some very important take-home messages about the real world. You find yourself on the side of the Na'vi. I genuinely felt ashamed of humans when I came out the cinema hahaha

Saw Avatar with the missus on New Year's Day.....WOW. Terrific piece of cinema. Despite a SLIGHTLY dodgy storyline (while still being very good), it sent home an important message regarding our future (War, Global Warming etc etc). A very good film indeed and the 3D visuals make it simply AMAZING. Even the CGI feels real; like watching it as if the Na'vi and Pandora were REALLY filmed. I'm going to stick my neck out and say it is by far the best film I have seen. Titanic (James Cameron's previous work) is a VERY close second. But second nonetheless. I think Avatar is THAT good. On a side note, I'm glad to see Joel Moore (Norm Spellman) get a serious break after a fantastic comedy performance in 'Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story.' A terrific actor imo. Commendation also goes to Sam Worthington (Jake Sully). Another fine performance from a new actor.

If that's the case, I'll do my best, but don't expect too much. Not much use up front. Hell, when I do play, I'm a goalie!

Short was one of my fave players. Strong, hard, and looked like he could take several beatings and still walk away without a bruise hahaha. He's english too!!! But I always remember the day of Matty Derbyshire's debut under Souness. Didn't Short get sent off for sending a Fulham player flying about 20 yards with a single push? I would place Short in my all-time defence (of players I've seen play). While I've been a STH for 5 years and attended at least 5 games in each of my 6 years of support before that, I'd say that wasn't too hard a choice....

While Craig Short's team were on a winter break, he visited Ewood Park for the Liverpool game. Later that night, he went to Westholme's Peter Pan production, where I spoke to him (his missus ran the production and my gf's sister was in it). he said that he one day hopes to coach at one of his former clubs. I told him he'd be more than welcome back here.

The gf's choice of film next week: Xmas Carol. Mine: Harry brown. Who's gunna win that? her no doubt, but anybody know if Harry Brown is any good? I'm told it's Sir Michael Caine's greatest performance since the Italian Job! Hope that ain't an overstatement. I'd hate to be disappointed by a man I consider to be one of the most fascinating in the world. He's on for my fantasy dinner party for sure hahaha!

swap him for tuncay, otherwise, KEEP HIM!!! There is only Tuncay (realistically, imo) who we can replace benni with who has a similar (maybe better?) threat and keeps us from paying an astounding price.

A straight swap of Benni for Tuncay would do me fine. As much as I admire Benni's talent, Tuncay also has that talent, is a bit taller, a bit younger AND....he's turkish!!!

I personally don't think strikers will be a problem after January; all depending on the emergence of Kalinic and he now looks ready. I think the CM should be sorted so we can create the chances for Benni/Kalinic/Roberts (give him enough and he will put ONE away). Even Hoilett and Diouf may get a try up front. I think we'll be reet, provided we sort the midfield.

DITTO!!! I reckon Kalinic and McCarthy could be an awesome strikeforce!! I base that on no knowledge whatsoever, so does somebody want to fill in the gaps there? We could still play dunny behond them!

Can't complain about the squad 'chipping in' with a couple though!

The crisps would only entice Dunny. We'd need a pie or burger to also entice Benni! THEN we'd have a race!! It'd make a Aston Martin look like a snail!

For holiday reading, I take in Sportsmen's autobiographies (even a few wrestlers too) and any of James Patterson's works. THOROUGHLY entertaining!!

Love it -

I'm slap-bang in the middle of the lower tier BBE (sometimes have my flag with me). I TRY to chant, but it takes forever for ANYTHING to get going. We have miserable sods sat around us. I have mentioned the bloke behind me who told me to sit down and STFU, have I not?

A true legend has passed away. Sir Bobby Robson was a gentleman of the world, not just in football. May God rest his soul. x
