Inquiring minds and rumbling tums want to know...

we must have missed the invite corny
what time are you expecting us ?

I will be making soup, Caldo Gallego, a Galician white bean and pork stew, with help from TS, who knows about these things, and a Black Bean soup for the vegetarians..

@Dicki, special guests only

well yeah.. duh .... my question still stands

or has corny got a lady friend coming round ?

So it's Everton that has the history then? Continuous years at the top of the football pyramid is what matters....

Continuous years in the top flight is Arsenal, Everton have the greatest number of years.

Sounds like Corny has a number of lady friends coming round.

Yep, 1 season in Div 2 in 1930, came straight back up

Last time in 1951, came straight back up

I'll have a shave and put on a nice dress?

Sounds nice btw. I'll probably have cheese on toast without the cheese.

You know how I said I'd be at the effra for Sunday's match, well like Pisti I lied.
I am unavailable due to prior cooking commitments.
I apologise unreservedly for the inconvenience my actions may have caused...

We AVBelieve.

plastic plastic. was even thinking of getting back in to the big smoke early enough to catch this one. skoota and me might well get down there still.

Reading positive comments from Julien Draxler about a possible summer transfer to Arsenal.

Likely cash plus Podolski. Would be an awesome signing

tenderoni, isn't draxler another creative winger/midfielder? Aren't you overstocked in that area?

can't hear draxler's name without thinking of

So I'm in this game where each week you have to pick a winning team in the Prem, If your pick wins you go through to the next round, lose or draw you are out. In the next round you have to pick a winner again but you cannot pick any team you have picked in any previous round. 80 odd started and I'm down to the last 3. We have all picked the same teams so far so no one has an advantage.

The reason I tell you this is because the prize is £650.

blah blah blah

I have picked Hull, the other 2 have picked NUFC.

Betfair exchange has the decimal odd for a win as...

Hull - 1.86
Newcastle - 1.81

Convert to probability is 0.54 vs 0.55 (rounded) so...

Hull win/NUFC lose is 0.24
Hull lose/NUFC win is 0.25

a win/win or lose/lose is a roll over. I calculate one or the other to happen to be 0.5.

Could lay this off but, fuck it, I want it all! slight underdog though.

Ive been hearing the same about him coming to Chelsea.

Although if that happens Mata is off then.

Either way, looking forward to having him in the premier league next year

interesting insight into the mindset/methods of martinez and rodgers in the run up to the merseyside derby, from a swansea player whose played for them both..

Sid Lowe on Mauricio Pochettino

http://www.theguardian.com/football/blog/2013/nov/22/mauricio-pochettino-southampton-espanyol

"Tell me how you train and I'll tell you how you play is a Spanish phrase," Flores says. "Well, Pochettino the player and Pochettino the manager took that to heart." His players talk about "hierarchy", "intensity", "effort", "seriousness" and "discipline";

This is worth watching (for the neutral) for the commentary on the first goal

Everton 2-3 Liverpool 16 April 2001 - YouTube

oh my..

heskey and deadly in the same sentence

there's also the bit you probably blocked out... that was his 21st goal that season.

Fittest Doris in boro.
