Strange considering it's not built around him.

If anything he's being more disciplined and playing a team role more than ever before. That's why we're seeing him play well imo.

Ive think I've enjoyed this competition more than usual, probably cos there wasn't any fan fare with this one.

We just turned up and see what happens.

Like you said, I think theyve exceeded expectations really, even if they haven't been the best team we've ever had.

Hopefully we can go on longer.

I Didn't mean actually built around him, but he is the main man

for the life of me I dont know what is wrong with this?

Well it would be a complicated technology, you may need microchips and lazers and all sorts, and if its not technology it WOULD destroy the flow.

But if they can pretend to put a man on the moon....

Perhaps it's destiny or some shyt, perhaps my dad is simply retarded but I guess I have a team to root for in the knockout stages even though I voted for Germany in the poll. Been mad conflicted this tournament.

a bunch of circus clowns. and to think people like the times started charging for website access with more to follow should take a lead from the evening standard and start giving that trash away.


and you had this a couple days ago

One of the reasons that The Daily Mail website is very successful is that they're very efficient. They get stories out quickly, and they get stories out often. It's an excellent business plan that allows them to rack up hits like they're going out of fashion.

And indeed, what could be more efficient than simply copying and pasting a story from a rival newspaper!?

The following appeared on The Daily Mirror's site late on Saturday evening, and in their paper on Sunday, written by Simon Bird:

'Everton are trailing Croatia striker Mario Mandzukic - and could land him for a bargain £7million. The Croatia hitman, one of the stars of Euro 2012 so far with his three goals in two games, could be paired with team mate Nikica Jelavic at Goodison Park.

'Mandzukic is on the radar of other Premier League sides too, because he is available at a "fair" price from his German club, Wolfsburg. The 26-year-old was signed by Wolfsburg's then-coach Steve McClaren - a friend of Everton boss David Moyes' No2 Steve Round - for £6million and has two years left on his contract.

And here's what appeared on The Mail site at 17.46 on Sunday:

'Everton are trailing Croatia striker Mario Mandzukic - and could land him for a bargain £7million. The Croatia hitman, one of the stars of Euro 2012 so far with his three goals in two games, could be paired with team mate Nikica Jelavic at Goodison Park.

Still, at least they didn't claim an EXCLUSIVE, eh?

They need to be sent to the Dean for plagiarism

 

[mastermind]

what makes that amazing is how none of those papers ever credit each other. They just jack an article and give no credit to the source.

I remember when the Rooney to City story was broken by the Daily Mirror and went live. Within an hour, every paper ran with the "Rooney is going to City" story without giving Daily Mirror any credit.
