Oooooh yes, definitely has Heavy Metal vibes...

This one makes me laugh because a long while back when we were up in the loft moving stuff about my youngest daughter who was in her teens back then found some of my old 45's and thought they were black CD's and she asked me what they were for...

@nudge@Bluewolf

Real Madrid literally built their success from the influence of a fascist dictator. Juventus built their success by 'winning the lottery' when the Agnelli family bought them in the 1920's. It all starts somewhere.

Better a decent story told in Heavy Metal Magazine...

Sounds like the perfect title for a campy 70s TV show

The Space Sirens of Andromeda...

New idea for a book

Space Sirens suckering weary travellers ships in no doubt until they reach the point of no return.. Might explain why we have not been visited yet..

This is proper creepy... sounds like it came straight from the horror 'Event Horizon' Science. - 9GAG

Come to think of it haven't chelsea won 5 times since 2001? Unless I'm missing something big here what the fuck kind for football fan are you?

I completely agree with you regarding the monopoly clubs at the top have and the difficulty in breaking that. I’ve also said before Chelsea and City are a symptom, not the root cause of the Premier League’s problem with money. But it doesn’t change the fact that these are sides that have built their success in a time where they have been handed money. There is so much more to football than just the present, and clubs like Bayern, Barce, Juve, Liverpool have been a force long before the introduction of the oil club. You just cannot buy that history and the feeling of what a big club is. Arsenal have been big for decades, even if they’ve had a poor couple of decades, they’re still a footballing institution in this country. And when they next win a league title they will go back to being a dominant footballing institution. City and Chelsea don’t have that.

So like Australia on a smaller scale.

Sorry to hear that buddy, I love animals and any animal that passes away under any circumstances makes me sad as I believe animals should have the same respect as human beings.

Sorry to hear that mate... it's always gutting to lose a family pet..

Sorry to hear that mate

None of that matters and you know it. The only thing that matters is marketing, and Chelsea are more marketed and currently more famous than Arsenal. Trust me from an international angle on this one mate, I’ve been everywhere man and I’ll tell you Chelsea gets waaay more attention. I get your angle as a Pom and looking at the landscape of Lundin but we can’t pretend it is the ‘English’ league when it is an International league based in England and Wales. You know I don’t buy into the ‘earned it’ nonsense, so for me personally I don’t know why you’d bring it up. If we were talking in 1962, I might agree with you. Right time, right place, during the rapid monetisation of the sport. The players and staff still had to work to win it,

That's your age talking. You grew up when Arsenal were a force, a cool club with superstar players and a superstar manager. Ask the Gen Zer and they'd say Arsenal are a rung below, nestled next to Tottenham, closer to West Ham than Chelsea, Liverpool, United, and City.

There is always the European Super league On a serious note, it's sad to see any club die, whoever they are. Hopefully that doesn't happen. But this must worry Chelsea. Even with a new owner, you don't know if that owner is suitable. Roman was one of the better ones, love him or loathe him.

This has been an absolutely ridiculous season for us as fans, even if we only end up having won just the one trophy. 3 cup finals in one season is ridiculous. And we’re still in the title race this late in the season while being in 3 cup finals. What an absolute fucking ride, I am often wondering if I am in a coma and this is all just some strange fantasy my brain has created. Klopp’s a fucking legend, we are lucky as fuck to have him.

Spit it out mate...

It's with a heavy heart that after only four years of having her, the gammy eyed fluffy fool known as Lola was put to sleep last week. She wasn't even 8 years old. She was not looking right at the beginning of April as her breathing did not look right at all. Took her to the vets and after checking her over, they said she had loose teeth and booked an op for her. A couple of weeks later, we took her to the vet again (different location) as she was still not looking right (despite painkillers). Was told the same thing that it was toothache. Last Thursday, we felt her stomach and it was pretty hard (as well as her breathing still not being right). Went to the vets and requested a full scan, but was told to expect the worst. The worst happened. We were told she had intestinal cancer that spread throughout her entire body. Our options were to either keep her drugged up at the vets and delay the inevitable, or put her to sleep. I don't think the chosen option needs further explanation. We went to the vets the following morning to say our goodbyes and that was that. It was the first time I ever saw any of my dogs put to sleep and I'd rather not do that again. My other dog has lost a companion for the second time now and is currently lost without her.
