  1. Little table update, now that it has it's proper order
  2. Milner is awful. I'd take a Rooney who can make something happen over a Milner who runs around more. In other news, Argentina didn't make my tip drip. Unless Germany turn it on tonight, France and Holland look the best from R1 by miles.
  3. You think they'll drop Casillas after that, its not like they're short of 'keepers?
  4. Steve @ Redline usually has a few quality options in stock. http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/160-redline-styling/
  5. I thought we played well, decent positive approach and the only thing we lack is composure in the final third. Top teams are totally comfortable stroking round in and around the oppo penalty area, before picking out a killer ball, we don't seem to be able to do this for some reason.
  6. I do a fantasy footy update for the work mini league every few days, thought I'd share some of the awful gags I'm planning for Monday's. So much for a sleepy tournament suffocated by humidity and drab scoreless games. It's been goal goals goals. Who amongst you saw the Dutch setting fire to the grass and lighting up the joint in the 5-1 mauling of Spain? Featuring a Blinding left wing performance by young Daley, not to mention Robin Van Persie's equaliser showing the Spanish the red light and the top quality Dutch head familiar to all Amsterdam regulars. Having missed Mexico v Cameroon I'm woefully short of match detail, but I don't think anyone was surprised to see the Mexicans take away a win from a spicy encounter. African fans shouldn't be too disappointed, with clear signs there will be brighter Cameroon diaz ahead. Elsewhere, red hot Chile peppered the Australia goal for 20 minutes before Cahill's movement cut Isla adrift in an ocean of space, sending Socceroos' fans leaping; some criminal defending means they're likely to continue tasting defeat, both Home & Away. As expected Colombia took a hard line in Group C, leaving the Greeks smashed, shattered and picking up the pieces. The Greeks will have to do feta in the next two games to avoid a grilling. Though it's hard to believe, all of this action was before the Group D day landing. Not content with a major upset on Friday, Uruguay were left shipwrecked in the rich coastal waters of Costa Rica... Luis Suarez looked starved of football on the bench, with nothing to get his teeth into as The Sky Blues were cannibalised by the opposition, who tabled a two goal serving in three second half minutes and a third course late on, as Urena took the p... Despite Honda driving Japan into an early lead, once again showing he's a kwik fit in their midfield and ably demonstrating the advantages of a regular service. Ultimately though Honda was left silenced and exhausted, as Les Elephants didn't forget (to score) with some poaching of their own, stampeding away with all three points in their trunk. Football fans all over were disappointed to see a Japanese squad not featuring pun regular Daisuke Matsui, who always got a good reception and never failed to work the channels. The England match was too emotionally difficult for this author to craft any gags, and only the selection of Raheem caused a rumble in the jungle. Roy Hodgson banked on Sterling, for which he deserves some credit and in return Sterling showed all the hallmarks of a top player, few fans will want to see him exchanged any time soon. I'm here all week, available for weddings, bat mitzvahs...
  7. I was just gazing longingly at this and browsing autotrader. Are the back seats useable?
  8. Looks sweet, very tempted by this myself. Nice job too by the looks of it.
  9. I love the shape of these, half classic half futuristic, fully timeless. Great motor
  10. I'm sure FIFA gave the word that anything less than a host win would probably lead to protests on the streets...
  11. ****! There's another bradders with a PM about fantasy football he probably wasn't expecting! It's not too late, only one game played! PM sent Sorry
  12. FFS, are the results not in on this yet????
  13. Like a drunk in a disco, last minute entry anyone?
  14. If it were me, I'd want it to fit and look absolutely spot on, so custom legs would probably be my choice - if the price isn't insane?
  15. There's a simple guide on here for door card removal, even I manage do it but you can mark the door card if patience isn't your strength (like me!)

    Nice job, not too dark. Looks well
  17. If you've tried the "easy" reset, then this one is trickier but might be worth it. http://www.350z-tech.com/wiki/index.php?title=TSB_04-089_Window_Regulator_Motor_Reset_Procedure
  18. I think we'll limp through the group and then get roundly beaten by the first decent team we come across. I'm going for Colombia as dark horses, I like their footballing style and commitment. As for England's problems, IMHO a lack of technical ability and movement off the ball are the major issues. We're still struggling from the ideas a few years ago that footballers should be over 6 foot tall and fast, worry about technique later. Fortunately, the new breed of players coming through look to be more proficient with their feet and it bodes well for the Euros and the next WC. I think we look much better when Stevie G and Flabby Frank aren't on the pitch. A centre forward who just poaches and takes one chance in three would be a huge gelp, I just don't know who that's going to be. Shearer was our last complete forward and Owen our last poacher. Since then it's been a dirge upfront, with Wayne too busy covering right back to spend all his time up top. I think it's a crime Defoe didn't get called up, he's the most natural finisher in the squad and I don't think a few months in North America will have diminished that. He's better than Wellbeck who seems to model his style of movement on a giraffe dropped out the bottom of a B52.
  19. Where does this kit rank on the OEM to race car scale? in terms of appropriateness to street/track.
  20. Not much, but I'd suggest you check in again after the group stages, for each knockout round (Round 2, Quarter Finals, Semi Finals) and make sure your team is made up from players from countries which have gone through to the next round. Transfer out anyone from any eliminated team. If they aren't in the tournament any more, they can't score points. Other than that, watch the points roll in and dish out some stick!
  21. Good work everyone, numbers creeping up. Let's see if we can't boost them further... If you're looking for Tasty Tipple to enjoy with the South American Summer Soccer Spectacular, look no further than Aguila - Colombia's top drop. I spent many months there researching just this topic, looking back I can't remember why I stayed so long...
  22. De nada. You know it's Portuguese in Brazil yeah? Just in case you're about to buy your phrase book
