xpost Before his imprisonment, I was presenting a radio show on which Rob Shepherd was a guest.
In a commercial break he turned to me and said: "I'm worried my son's gay. I've been trying to get him to come to York Hall to watch the fights, but he doesn't want to."
"How old is he, Rob?"
"He's eight."
"I don't think not liking boxing at eight is a sign of homosexuality, Rob."

This must be the most interesting game of the season so far? And I'm including Dortmund v Real in that.

what exactly is going on with lambert and bent?
― mizzell, Tuesday, 27 November 2012 20:16 (thirteen years ago)
we look alright, pretty chilled out, much less of a bombscare
sunderland are such garbage though
didnt expect this side at all after saturday's old boys reunion, it's p much what hughes would have put out. flooding the midfield makes sense i guess (cattermole off too) but cisse's too isolated and mackie's wasted deeper not harrying anyone

hate to be the one to break it to you but... keogh's scored four, unlucky noodles

can't remember who it was, but someone got all indignant when i suggested that Sunderland was about Adam Johnson's level. I may have overestimated him
― Number None, Tuesday, 27 November 2012 21:14 (thirteen years ago)
johnson is a good player, not good enough to start for city but certainly for sunderland
― Nilmar Honorato da Silva, Tuesday, 27 November 2012 21:16 (thirteen years ago)
sunderland are just completely dysfunctional
johnson by far the worst player on the pitch tonight

but maybe not this Sunderland xpost

Is 'Invest In Africa' because Sunderland couldn't find a proper sponsor? I hope Burkina Faso isn't spending 20% of GDP on funding this.

pretty sure it's just to troll steve bruce for spending £13m on asamoah gyan

'nother Honduran heading to England: http://www.mlssoccer.com/news/article/2012/11/26/sportings-espinoza-seems-set-winter-switch-wigan
Good player, though a tad card-prone.
― dansplaining (dan m), Tuesday, 27 November 2012 21:43 (thirteen years ago)
Also, is Wigan just the default club for Hondurans these days? Seems like they've had several.
wigan seems to be the only club in england who bothers to do much scouting in south/ central america. tottenham had a honduran striker on trial a couple of years ago but he ended up somewhere in spain.
