take the Bank job and build some income here - rushing off to the UK and piling up debts is no joke. Unless he has an alternative means of funding the program apart from working in the UK, it would be a bad move to go for the school option. Take the job, re-examine your options after a a year or so.

Good talk.

Akolawole:
Who will you pick? Mikel or Carrick?

Carrick one million times over!

It's even insulting comparing them. It's like comparing sleep
with death.

Have you guys heard Rio will captain England against
France?

Fabio Capello shows us once again that no one's shirt or
position is guarantees.

That is the type of "jolt" English players need so they can
come out of their comfort zones.

EDIT: Oops! I posted it twice.

somze:
Chelsea is breathing down your necks and he is shaking uncomfortably.

Yes, Chelase is a threat at the moment considering the fact
that we still have to go to the bridge.

That is why I said Grant has tried.

somze:
Meanwhile,
The only thing that would bring balance to the EPL and Referee neutrality is the resignation of SAF.
The sooner he does that the better for us.

The god is really making you uncomfortable.

He is such a force that even though he is not liked at Soho
square or by any journalist (apart from Geoff Shreeves), he cough
and sneezes blow everyone away.

He is god!

ituen:
too bad akin

you just met your nemesis

I still got 2 spare forms

YOu and Mukina can come get them free of charge

Forms for what? To join Chelsea?

No thanks, I don't support small clubs.

Akolawole:
Maybe you are just reading this thread Akin.

Yes. I started coming here recently. I dumped the Arsenal
thread as soon as I saw that Chelsea were our biggest
threat.

I did not reckon with Chelsea at the begining of the season.

But now, I even have nighmares about them. I was praying
Arsenal would beat them.

I know criticising Jose is a NO GO AREA at the bridge. But not
for us outside the bridge. Even when he makes errors and
talks gibberish, it is regarded as gold.

What you'all don't realize is that Roman has done Jose a
big favour. Sending him away when the ovation was quite
high.

How I wish he had left him so he could taste what "trophyless
seasons" mean.

You all have been unfair to Grant. It gets worse when you
insist that he's not been treated worse.

The chants of "You don't know what you're doing" when
he was making those substutions was an absolute disgrace.

Grant has done a good job since he took over.

Wake up guys. . . You really need to.

somze:
Even at 4 penalties, it means the guys only scored 13 genuine goals, meanwhile the goal against Wigan was a rebound from his missed penalty so lets make that 12 goals in the season.

Na wah o! Since I've been watching football, I've never heard
a thing like this.

Genuine goal. . .

@ 4 Play,

Please take a look at the last part my post again.

Now, all managers make blunders. There is no question about that. The point
is the gloss over it when it comes to Jose and a thorough expository when it
comes to grant is grotesquely unfair.

@ somze,

Please read and understand my analysis before you reply. There
is no prize for who replies first.

Sir Alex has been in countless similar situations where he turned
it around so we can fall back on that experience. That is why the
rules are different for him. He is god.

I went back 3 seasons to show you it's been happening a long time
ago and not just when the problems started this season.

@ somze,

What do you mean no one said it? Do you monitor what millions
of Chelsea fans say worldwide? Come on.

Yes! Chelsea were a sinking ship!

Were they on the upward or on the downward slide when Jose
left? If you say they were on the upward then there is no point
of talking about it any longer.

How can you compare trophy cabinets between a three year and
an eight month spell?

I'm begining to sense what Jackal calls "plastic fans" here.

@ Akolawole,

You said only a fool would have thought Jose wouldnt have turned it
around.

If that is a fact, then I agree that I'm a big fool because I never for
one thought he would turn it around. We cannot assume that he
surely would have.

If Grant started the season and recorded the same statistics, you would
have sid only a fool can think that Chelse would be in that position if
Jose was in charge.

See?

Yes! Our season was a rot at the start as well. We must always call
a spade a spade. We don't mince words at OT. We blast Fergie at OT
very much when he gets his tactics wrong. I've never heard a Chelsea
fan blast Jose.

The number of times Jose has blundered with tactics? Because of time,
lets talk about a couple.

Necastle Vs Chelsea (FA Cup)

Jose puts out a ludicrous 4-1-2-1-2 formation against a 4 man pacy and
physical midfield of Dyer, Jenas, Butt and Robert.

At half time, he tries his magic wand by making three substitutions running
the risk of ending the match so early with less than 11 men in case of injuries
which was what happened.

Basic managerial blunder.

Barcelona Vs Chelsea (ECL)

Chelsea needed a tactical switch to get back into the game and Jose perfoms
some magic.

Throws John Terry to lead the line.

Now, all managers make blunders. There is no question about that. The point
is the gloss over it when it comes to Jose and a thorough expository when it
comes to grant is grotesquely unfair.

Jose is a charmer. He has charmed and blind folded most Chelsea
fans.

Someone said Grant should win something before he can forgive
him.

Forgive him for what!

He deserves praise for steadying a sinking ship Jose left behind. I
ruled Chelsea out of the race after Chelsea's loss at Villa park now I
fear them like hell.

If Jose was in charge yesterday, you all would have sang to high
heavens what a magician he was.

Yesterday, Chelsea fans were singing "You don't know what you're
doing" when he was making those changes. That's obscene in my
reckoning. Your manager doesn't desrve that.

Granted Ramos outwitted him at Wembley but how many times have
we seen Jose outwitted? Countless times.

But his charm masks everything.

My point: Jose was a fantastic manager for Chelsea. The trophy cabinet
speaks for him but we must recognize that Grant has done very very
well as well.

Like Chacal said, stop the mood swing and stop acting like a jilted boyfriend.

Pasuma Wonder hands down.

@ somze,

If my statement came across to you as an insult, then I
take full responsibility. I APOLOGIZE.

Adddressing you as a lad is not derogatory in my reckoning.

It's like saying "that chap". Dictionary.net defines lad as A
companion; a comrade; a mate/friend.

Chacal:
I laugh when people tell me Arsenal still have to go to OT and play Man Utd.
What is to say Arsenal won't get walloped 4-0 again in April? We are talking about Fort Knox here not bloody Emirates stadium.

I mentioned weeks ago that Chelsea is our main threat to
the title and not Arsenal. They atill are.

I really wanted Arsenal to win so they could kill off Chelsea's
challenge because Arsenal's season had been over a long time
ago.

I talked about Wenger not reinforcing and Arsenal fans won't
agree. A team comes fourth in the premiership, loses Henry
and all they came up with were light weight replacements.

United won the title and went for Hargo, Tevez, Anderson and
Nani. What do we expect other than this?

It's not worth it talking about Arsenal. Let's go worry about
Chelsea.

@ Chacal,

I'm sure the lad was on about the move that led to the
corner kick. I was already getting irritated but I just
couldn't watch him mess the thread up with nonsense.

bumpy john:
Bank jobs in Nigeria is just something to keep boys going(reigning thing), I tell you prospects is dull, even the bankers will tell you this.

They will tell you that because they don't know what is
on the other side.

@ poster,

Tell your friend to take that job today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

somze:
If I had claimed your 2nd goal was a fraction offside

No chance.

Arbeloa kept Ronaldo onside the moment Tevez chested the
ball.

somze:
Akinalabi
Do you know the rules of offside?

Absolutely. I'm not a football newbie.

I insist 2 players were offside leading to Chelsea's equalizer.

presido1:
Somze
But believe me all those faults are from the refs.
To curb, FA should start placing Fine of the Refs or banning them for some games as was when ref gave chelski penalty
at Ansfield last year. Or did you not see that one?

I wonder o.

The ref on that day, Rob Stiyles had just finished work on
Abramovich's driveway before that game.

somze:
Do we only get to see this rule enforced against opposition at Old Trafford? Let the FA explain it.

Like Pompey Vs Man Utd at Old Trafford?

Come on son. . . You aint got no point.

somze:
The FA should come out clear and explain themselves except this is a rule for Man Utd or one against just Chelsea.

With 2 players offside during the build up to Chelsea's
equalizer, I don't think you should be talking.

Javier deserved to be sent off. He showed dissent not
once, but twice.

He was not involved in the Torres booking. He ran 25 yards
to contest the decision. Steve Bennet waved him off and he
stayed put.

I've seen that result in a booking more than a thousand times.

Thank goodness United had scored before the incident. You
would have said the match would have ended goaless.

somze:
It's getting sad the way Refs blatantly support the Red team at Old Trafford.

Last season it was dubious penalty decisions for Utd and none against opposition, except when Spurs were four (4) goals down and it was ten minutes or so left on the clock. This season it's sending off players in a grand slam match. First Chelsea, now Pool, both very dubious decisions.

I wonder when the FA would actually be bold enough to probe the club and its relationship with officials. Or maybe the FA is part of the whole game plan.

Sad! Sad! Sad!

There they go again. . .

No more doubts as to where the title is heading.

@ outlaws,

I have been using clickbank since 2005 and I can vouch
for its useability. For your digital products, go for clickbank!

For your physical products, go for 1shoppingcart.com

I thought I was the one thinking along that line.

We had a grand slam Sunday last season as well if
I remember well.

The odds of this happening naturally 2 years in a row
must be 1,000/1 (I don become bookmaker )

Talking about this grand slam Sunday thingy. . .

How come we keep having them if the fixtures are
not arranged.

Am I missing something here?

don jasi:
this is a very daft thread!!!!

Very Very Daft!

If there is no penalty offence, I guess the referee should
just pick the ball and put it on the spot.

@ outlaws,

You are in the US right?

Then go for clickbank. They are the best in thw world when
it comes to selling ebooks.

Another advantage of clickbank is that people can pay you
with their paypal account without you needing to have one.

Their affiliate network is top notch as well. If you know how
to go about it, leveraging the netowork can make you cold,
hard cash.

Using paypal is alright only that they don't protect ebooks
sellers when there are chargebacks.

You can take a look at 2checkout as well and even 1shopping
cart and many others.

My advice? Use clickbank.

Ibime:
I have looked at this Agbonlahor and asked myself - what would this guy have if he had no speed? He wouldn't even be able to get into my Saturday team, much less earn a living from football. He should thank his lucky stars he was born with such pace.

Very biased and unfair analysis.

If you take away the stongest point of a player from him, how
do you expect him to remain the same.

It's like saying these. . .

Take Nistelrooy's positioning away from him

Take Makelele's man marking from him

Take Beckam's crosses away from him

Take David Jame's shot stopping abilities away from him

Take Fab4's passing range away from him

Come on son. His pace is his asset and he uses it to his
advantage.

The boy is a talent.

Tell him to take the job, TODAY!!!

Chacal:
Ferguson knew what he was doing when he splashed 12 mil on Ronaldo. . . . It was a shrewd buy.

Absolutely!

And he was experienced enough not to allow the the
"noise" from the press about the imagined row between
him and Rooney during the world cup degenerate to
making him leave Old Trafford.

And of course he knew what he was doing when he handed
him the sacred No7 jersey.

Again, he knew what he was doing when he made him the
stand in skipper last night.

Fergie always knows what he is doing. He is a god!
