Transfer Window

Dr Hellwig PhD — Fri, 02 Jan 2009 12:07:48 GMT

The transfer window has re-opened with a resounding clunk and all the major movers and shakers are looking to improve their squads.

Another key factor though is just who you can get rid of in the window. Which three players from your team's squad would you liked to see canned?

I'll go first for Rangers

1. Charlie Adam - Why he was given the nod against Celtic I'll never know, the play continually went down his channel despite his inability to control or pass the ball. Pity that ...

Cliques?

disco stu — Mon, 05 Jan 2009 14:50:41 GMT

Do we really need to go back to having ciques on here?

Which wrestler would you most like to see in WWE?

PeteRoe — Sun, 04 Jan 2009 12:45:36 GMT

Been watching a bit of CHIKARA and thought Claudio Castignolli (sp?) would be a perfect addition to the WWE.

I understand he was actually there but never debuted and in turn his gimmick has been given to DJ Gabriel in ECW.

Who would you guys like to see in WWE?

Batista out for 6-8 months

Dr Hellwig PhD — Tue, 23 Dec 2008 13:53:25 GMT

Pwinsider.com wrote:Last week's main event angle, where Randy Orton kicked Batista in the head, was an angle to write Batista off of the show for a long period of time. Batista was having hamstring issues on the recent European tour, and those issues got much worse when he returned to the US. The plan is for Batista to have surgery soon, which could see him miss anywhere from 6-8 months. WWE is planning for a return no earlier than June, but possibly as late as August.

Batista has a history ...

Fans of premiership teams should watch the Swansea V Cardiff game tonight and make notes on how to support a team. The game itself should be a humdinger!

That Gazza documentary

ShowStealer — Tue, 06 Jan 2009 12:46:40 GMT

PeteRoe wrote:The Gazza documentary was a tad depressing

I hate seeing Gazza like that.

I want Rangers to get him in and around the lads at training and get him him involved. Having Walter and Ally around him will do him wonders I feel.

I found the documentary very disappointing. Gazza was hardly spoke to the camera and when he did it wasn't about his problem, I know the documentary was about living with gazza, but surely he should of been featured more. Instead we had a very ...

Premiership Predictions game

brother of destruction — Tue, 16 Sep 2008 02:23:51 GMT

This was a great game a few years running & seeing as how I'm the defending champion this year (on the basis I was leading before the crash), thought I'd get the ball rolling.

If anyone else wants to run it, feel free to shout, but lets at least get some peeps signed up & then we can see about a scoring system.

I suggest we leave signups open for a week or two, to give word a chance to spread.

Gears of War 2, Story Discussions Spoilers

Mtank325 — Sun, 04 Jan 2009 05:51:46 GMT

Considering how more well-thought out the storyline is in this iteration and some major plot twists being revealed, what was your opinion of the story in GOW2?

I was actually quite involved with it; I liked Dom's determination to locate his wife, how they handled Tai, and more purpose the Locust seemed to show. However after Dom located his wife, things seemed to get kind of sloppy.

First, I was fine with how Dom handled his wife's situation, but as I listened and read more and more ...

Multimedia you've recently purchased.

'Dub — Tue, 07 Oct 2008 08:14:55 GMT

I thought I'd resurrect this classic from the old board. Another Big Dave original I believe - what a legend.

In case you missed this one, it's fairly self-explanatory. Just post recent purchases of books, DVDs, CDs, games and so on. Hopefully discussions well then ensue.

Anyway, I'll get it going. I've recently bought:

Angus & Julia Stone - Chocolates & Cigarettes (EP)

Tamara Schlesinger - From Home to Home (CD)

Heroes Season 3 (Spoilers)

So who watched the season premiere last night? I very disappointed to say the least. What the hell is with all the ridiculous plot turns this season?

Spit it out, you like "gay" songs!

Shaunj4 — Thu, 16 Oct 2008 21:42:57 GMT

Not gay as in what IOV was thinking but cheesy and corny stuff.

Favorite Scary Game/Moment

Mtank325 — Sun, 19 Oct 2008 05:07:25 GMT

With it being Halloween this month, what has been your favorite/memorable scariest moment and game?

Resident Evil is my favorite and the sharks always scared the living hell out of me. First initially when you're looking for the button to drain the tank and the huge son of a bitch bangs right up against the glass, then when you think he's dead after you've drained it and as you walk past him and he chomps down on you. Got such a frickin' jump from that.

I'm surprised at what little ...

Woolworths Goes Into Administration

About time. Awful shop that always insisted on hiring monkeys. Wouldn't worry too much about the spotty teenagers losing their jobs - Greggs, JJB Sports, McDonald's, Burger King, Argos and TK Maxx are still around.

New phone@:{

Hector_Nicols_Accordian — Sun, 05 Oct 2008 22:53:40 GMT

Hello

I am due a new phone and I reckon I will go back to Sony Ericsson.

Anyway, does anyone have any experience of the w980 or the c902? they are the 2 favourites at the moment i am looking at.

Either that or pay 50 quid for a Nokia 95.

What do people think?

Do you understand?

Draw for the first round tomorrow lunch time and Stevenage are quite lucky to even be in it.We drew 2-2 with Ryman league side Horsham this afternoon, dreadful performance from us.First half we didn't start off too bad and even went in front via a nice finish by Mitchell Cole.But about a minute after we scored we just fell to pieces, Luke Oliver just gave the ball to Sigere who only had the keeper to beat, we were 2-1 down just before half time after more dithering by the defence.

Ebay Selling. 1st time advice

brother of destruction — Mon, 05 Jan 2009 00:01:46 GMT

Decided I need a clear out of a load of stuff. Mainly books that I'm not going to read again, but they're in good nick, so am reluctant to junk.

I've got a 23 rating, with 100% feedback, but have never sold anything. I know plenty of peeps on here have, so can anyone share some advice about how to go about it, what it will cost me, whether I'm likely to be able to shift stuff without having sold anything before etc.

Vickie Guerrero Nude Pic Storyline

PeteRoe — Sun, 04 Jan 2009 20:47:56 GMT

The Great Khali outbid Chavo Guerrero at the last minute to get the pics! What a stupid but fantastic storyline.

What's the moral of the story?

brother of destruction — Sun, 04 Jan 2009 23:56:30 GMT

This is a story about a Fly, a Fish, a Bear, a Hunter, a Mouse and a Cat.

There is a moral to this story......

In the dead of summer a fly was resting among leaves beside a stream. The hot, dry fly said to no one in particular, 'Gosh....if I go down three inches, I will feel the mist from the water and I will be refreshed.'

There was a fish in the water thinking, 'Gosh...if that fly goes down three inches, I can eat him.'

There was a bear on the shore thinking, 'Gosh...if ...

Anyways, I've just got G1 Jockey for the Wii, I'm using that console most at the moment and getting a few interesting games. Quite hard to master at the moment but I'm sure I'll get the hang of it.

Onto you guys.

Euthanasia

JK — Thu, 11 Dec 2008 10:13:16 GMT

A lot of coverage in the news about this, with people travelling to Switzerland for assisted suicide because their lives have become unbearable. This is apparently only now an issue because it's being shown on TV.

In what will almost certainly be a vain attempt to stir up and intelligent debate, how does everyone feel about euthanasia? Personally I'm for it. We do it to animals when they become unable to live a happy life, so why not do the same to humans who actually have the power to ...

Travel suggestions for Europe

The Phenom — Thu, 27 Nov 2008 23:55:53 GMT

Now I am looking for holiday suggestions.

I am being permanently stationed in Germany right after Christmas. I'll be arriving on December 30th. I have never been anywhere in Europe. So what places should I go to, and what places should I avoid?

I'll be there for roughly 3-4 years, with a year or two stint in Iraq/Afghanistan in there. Then I'll more than likely come back for another 3-4 years if I enjoy Europe.

Six degrees of separation

JK — Sat, 27 Dec 2008 12:26:51 GMT

I'm curious (and this could be a good bit of fun). Which celebrities could we, as smashers, get hold of?

For example, if I wanted to talk to the Beddingfields (Daniel and the woman whose name escapes me) I would talk to my friend Soph, who would talk to her mother who is good friends with their manager... and so on.

So... if I wanted to talk to... say... Billie Piper could any smashers help me do that?

NB This is purely hypothetical, I have no intention of stalking Billie Piper ...
