Bilbao Baggins sounds a good one I reckon.

Nah, something witty.

Ouch burn

Typical that Real Ale, Bilbao Baggins and Barearselona are already used up.

Elevenerife?

Right, there was only one way to do it.

I picked a random Spanish municipality from Wikipedia:
L'Hospitalet de Llobregat

Then I put them into the city part of this http://www.teamnames.net/fantasy/random-team-name-generator

L'Hospitalet de Llobregat Secret Agents

Screw it, i'm going with Fake Zaragoza.

Getafeck Outtahere I might go with.

Now Then Now Then It's Jimmy Seville FC?

I will now spend the rest of this week coming up with an Italian team name

First thoughts (and I admit they are poor)

Who?dinese
Nippley

Those who haven't voted please do so

https://www.606v2.com/t35273-official-vote-should-we-reboot-with-immediate-effect

Or to follow the Jacamos theme, Pie-cenza

Inter My Mum?

Gran Torino
Atalanta Falcons
Genoa Nice Pub Around Here?
Parma Violets

Those are all I can really get, I'm no good with these things.

Like Inter Me Nan, I was hoping to steer clear of any names that suggest sexual relations with my immediate family members.

Sod - Genoa Nice Pub Around Here? I like it.

Inter Yernan doesn't imply you are a motherfornicator Hero

I think Sir Jimmy Seville FC is higher on my list this morning...

Afro, could go for Pisa as your Italian base, works better for puns!

I think it's best you leave the incest ones for Olly, who fortuitously also has Italy...

I think I might have Atalanta Falcons. Bergamo looks nice on Wikipedia.

i like Gran Tornio Sodhat

what about mine then?
ive picked the city as Wolfsburg
and at the mo have Wolfsburg Rising any other thoughts?

You Wanna Pisa Me?

We're Wolfsburg

I have voted. In a meeting at 10am so just PM me and keep me posted please. ZZZ

If it is looking increasingly likely that the league is going to be rebooted would people that wanted it to continue want to have a mini play off for titles etc?
Thinking a 4 way in the Premier League between Sod, me, Trebs and Marky, top seed v bottom etc as semis and then a final like Trebs play off idea?
Don't think TSJ would want to take part, that's why I didn't include him.

Morning

If we're rebooting then reboot it now I don't want a play off.

???? Mums South End

We'd do the reboot immediately, but still have a playoff going on for just for pride.

It's currently 8 to 5 (adjusting for Viva's misvote) in favour of reboot.

Although as said last night, there is no point rebooting until we have the 16th manager in, so we might as well carry as normal until then

nah we can find someone easily

But we need that person to be able to the draft, so they need to be ready straight away as soon as we reboot

we could ask Beer? or GSC?

I can't see Beer wishing to take part in honesty.

iPhone5 arrived and charging.

Hows the look compared to the 4?

The 4 is the nicest looking phone around I think

It's really really nice. Whilst I fully get why people rate the Galaxy etc they just dont have the sheer quality feel that an iPhone has.
I have just experienced that whole sweaty palmed addict feeling as I opened the box.

Hero a typical Apple Fan boy, just the other day he was saying how the S3 feels cheap and plastic and now he picks up the Iphone5. Apple lovers don't have their own opinion they just follow the crowd bunch of sheeps.

Bradford Bell3nds shall be my team name.

It's style over substance.

My dad would want the Galaxy because it is practical and better to use. My younger brother would want the iPhone because it looks more stylish and cooler

I don't get why people are sheep for picking it.
I clearly made my own choice upon the matter as I've chosen anything but an iPhone until now. The reason being is that I got an iPad free with work and it just made a lot more sense now that I already have a huge bank of songs on iTunes and a large number of apps to get the device that was compatible with them.

What are the biggest phone companies in the world in your opinion?

Apple
Nokia
Samsung
LG

Viva - you've quickly become like all the Android users. They have to diss Apple as they feel they need to justify having something other than an iPhone.

it's each to their own for me. I like Android for usability and I don't really care about having the coolest phone.

Published last month, Worldwide market share

Samsung 21.6%
Nokia 19.9%
Apple 6.9%

So if anyone is sheep, it's Samsung users

where are the championship lawyers for this week

anyone see Ronaldo's lovely open goal miss yesterday was hilarious

The reason why they are sheep is because they are blindy picking up a phone because of the hype without doing any research. Iphone come out with some ridiculous stuff and the fans lap it up but the funny thing is a lot of the features they brag about have been out on Android phones 8 months ago. Look at the Nexus it's almost a year old and I bet anything it could easily go toe to toe against the Iphone 5 and come out on top.

Now if you said that comment without saying "this Whilst I fully get why people rate the Galaxy etc they just dont have the sheer quality feel that an iPhone has." I would have said fair enough your comment is valid because thats the same reason I was going to get the Iphone4s. But this comment about the "sheer quality" is a joke because I've held and played with the 5 and it feels very light, plasticy like the S3. The comment buy you was a typical Fanboy comment.

Afro I don't need to diss the Iphone my phone does that by itself when I pull it out in the Apple shop on purpose to show these Fanboys. I think the Iphone is a fantastic phone and I love the build on the Iphone. Afro that does now show the head to head between Samsung Galaxy and the Iphone that shows all Samsung phones which obviously will give us the lead. It's not only about the sales of the phone, the Android is made specifically for people to customize it to their needs, if you look at my S3 and my friends you'll see how diffrent they are, the settings, the widgets, because everyone is diffrent Android don't want us to be sheeps they want us to be creative and think for ourselves. Now look at the Iphone except the apps every user will be exact the same as the other, so rigid, so confined, but Apple fanboys don't mind that they are happy to be told what to do because they don't think for themselves, brainwashed buying into the hype machine.

An for me it's not about coolest phone, it's about the best phone but my phone happens to be the best and the coolest. If I had to pick a phone except my own it would be the Nexus a phone that is one year old but still eats the Iphone 5 because Android are free flowing like Barca unlike the rigid Iphone of Chelsea under Mourinho.

I can do them lunchtime but ideally I was waiting till we know whether we stop or go on

Why are people so insecure about their phones and what they show about them?

All I use mine for is calling, texting, watching the odd NFL game, and reading the Guardian app. I might get a crappy phone next just so I can get a free Galaxy tab...

thanks soddy

That's my point Sod. Whenever a discussion is made about an iPhone, you always get the Android brigade piping up about Apple hype. There is definately some kind of insecurity that makes them need to say something.

if I had a pound for every time I had heard a Android user say the exact same stuff as Viva just has done I would be a lot richer. Yes Apple is hyped and there's a lot of sheepism, but the same is true about the S3. Samsung have done to town on it.

There is though like Afro said this constant need for some Android users to just have a go at people with iPhones like some zealot.
It's a phone, I'm very happy with my phone and it's my personal choice to spend my wage upon it. I do not force others to have the same phone but I'm happy to discuss with people who have the same phone about what they find useful with it.
It's becoming like the over bearing religious nut who can't quite understand why someone of a different religion doesn't follow them.
If I make a video of the Android green guy having the mick taken will suddenly embassies be stormed in protest?

Viva - you've quickly become like all the Android users. They have to diss Apple as they feel they need to justify having something other than an iPhone.

Android is just better. NO restrictions unlike Apple who just want to control everything.
I do agree with Afro its each to their own. Im happy having films, music, books and apps for free, I can 100% guarantee I spend less with my Android then the low usage iPhone user. Functionality and saving money is why I feel Android is better.

Leave the Android Prophet out of this.
