Rose Byrne from Xmen and Insedious is more my kind of women.

We're talking about looks not what they're like in the bed. Dalglish daughter is pretty but not my cup of tea, she looks like she'd make a good wife.

Yep, she's hot too. You'll probably like Gemma Arterton as well then?

No, we're talking about what you would want from a woman. Do you want the one that looks nice or one that gives you the most in bed?

BTW I didn't add my 1m bonus from last week because I sent my tactics Saturday morning to Olly and did the same this week.

You're an example of how all manager's should behave The bonus should only be for those that send tactics and vote before the deadline.

I had to Google her Didnt know her name but she stars in prince of Persia. She is a beautiful women.

Has to be the one that gives you most in bed but she can't look like a dogs backside.

I remember relutantly agreeing to watch Tamara Drew on Sky the other month, completely unaware of how much I was about to enjoy watching...

Did you know, the only place a human can legitimately tickle themselves is on the roof of the mouth?

I am not embarrassed to say I tried it

I'm not ticklish though.

You should try it, it is true. You can't then scratch it when it tickles too much though because you'll start bleeding probably.

I did indeed tickle myself!

Strange looks coming my way now

I heard that before but I used to use my tounge instead of my fingers.

Without this becoming a iPhone v Android debate, what should I do?
 
I cracked the screen on my newish iPhone 3GS and the company I bought it from are going to refund it in full.
 
So I have a decision to make.
 
1) Get another 3GS
I can use my work SIM in it, so I pay c£160 for the phone, but nothing monthly.
However, as it's the work package, I do not get data and cannot send picture messages. I can only go online when I have a wireless connection
 
2) Get an iPhone 5S
I will have to pay c£50 for the phone and £46 per month, so over whatever term of deal, quite a bit more
But I get data on 4G and all the perks of a normal personal contract.
And I get a much better phone
 
 
I am not considering switching back to Android just because all my stuff is on iCloud and with other Apple products, it's just easier.

PS, I can't get an iPhone 4 or 5 and stick my work SIM in it, coz it's the wrong size and the company won't ask for a different SIM for me.

It really depends on how much of the phone you'll use personally, I doubt you use Facebook, Twitter, whatsapp much. At work you'll be using the work computer at home you'll have laptop/tablet and WiFi. Is it worth paying 46 pound a month if most of the time you'll have another device to use or WiFi wherever you are. 

You can get a sim cutter from eBay or Amazon to cut the size of a normal sim card to fit in the new phones.

Haha realised after I posted. Had to be Marky who picked it up 

Can I get an opinion? Considering accepting my lawyers offers for Schneiderlin and Ward Prowse, and signing a new DM (Thiago Motta or Felipe Melo). Is that a substantial improvement?

I use it a lot personally and would use the 3G/4g a lot. I use whatsapp plus sky go, paddy power and few others a lot.

Basically I would get a lot of use from the data I reckon

Afro, if you're buying a phone outright, you want www.smartfonestore.com

As for cutting a simcard, you can do that with a pair of scissors, that's not a problem. If it was me, I'd buy the iPhone 3/4 outright and go from there.

I'd say not. Hero has such a hard on for Schneiderlin that neither Motta nor Melo can make up for.

Oh btw this weekend might be a good idea for someone else to put tactics up, I got a wedding saturday (where I intend to get horrendously drunk) and Norwich play on the Sunday, so I ain't getting them up till Sunday evening at the very earliest

Just going through listening to the v2 football podcasts, some cracking stuff there

If any of you like wrestling as well you can listen to my dulcet tones on the wrestling podcast.

What if the tactics deadline was changed by 4 hours to 8pm Friday?

Oooooohhhhh good suggestion!

Rather concerned by Nando's tactics for Januzaj:

'My motto has always been if your good enough your old enough'

Sure Jimmy Saville went by that motto too.

How much data month will you get? 4G data goes very quick and watching youtube videos or sky go will take a lot. If you do use as much as you say it might be worth it but I do think 46 quid is a lot, I pay 32 pound a month get unlimited data, 5000 texts and 2000 minutes.

10gb of data, unlimited calls and texts.

Although I probably won't go for 4g tbh. Just exploring options

If you can get similar data for 3g I' go with that, it'll be cheaper, you're getting one of the best phones around it'll be a massive difference from the outdated 3gs.

I'm at work

Difficult to get anywhere near that data allowance without the cost of the phone shooting up or the monthly payment being higher.

The original deal was EE. On Orange by itself, for the same price you can get 3G pay £10 more for the phone and have only 5gb of data.

On t mobile, you pay a £1 a month more, you do get unlimited data, but the phone is a tenner more.

voting done took 40 minutes.

That's down 20 minutes on last week Viva. Must do better

3G is more then good enough at the moment, unless you're uploading downloading massive files you're better of sticking with 3G.

From my experince T-Mobile has the best reception/signal and for unlimited data that is good. I'd ring up and see if you can get a better deal on the phone as they sometimes have deals that are not online. You never know if you don't try and twist their arms.

Three are offering 4G for free when it becomes available (i.e. at no extra cost)
£15 per month for unlimited data, 300 mins, 3000 texts.

Admittedly their signal isn't the best, it has been fine for me most of the time but it's the cheapest deal of anything.

Votes in on time

Morning all!

Gutted Everton threw that clean sheet away, lost me so many fantasy points

Mourinho needs a character transplant

Votes to me by kunch as always chaps.

Delayed by half an hour because the door didn't close on a train. Can't they install a manual override for stupid things like that to be eradicated?

I thought voting deadline was midnight, not kunchtime?

I once got stuck in a long tunnel on the DLR, because it was packed so tightly that someone leant on a door and it opened. Tripped the system, we got stuck. Doors wouldn't open. Pregnant woman started getting panic attacks. A tube drivers strike was about to start. Not a great 1 and 1/2 hours!

Ross Barkley was stunning last night.

The "deadline" is midnight but as always there are stragglers and I'm inclined to let them get votes to me before I start tallying up scores.

Every time I use the kettle at work my hand smells like onions afterwards. Someone must be smothering the handle with onions.

As Olly often can't get tactics up, and because you usually can't do results until lunchtime, why don't we just make the voting deadline midday on Tuesday, rather than midnight?

Barkley was brilliant last night, and when Deulofeu came on, we must and dribbled past the Newcastle defence like they weren't there 3 or 4 times.

Oh, and thanks for letting us have Lukaku

Our grill at home smells of onions. Which is weird, as we haven't had any in our house for at least 3 years. Maybe there is a phantom Frenchman stalking us both?

Thank God for smileys, I could not have expressed my feelings without them.

Maybe if we give Graham Carr a call Newcastle will sign him and we can be onion free.

It's Joe Kinnear we need to grab, let's pretend we're Kevin Keegan and Terry McDermott, I bet we can convince him.

I'm on a gambling hot streak now. 3 wins in a row.

Sure, it's only a net profit of £13.75 but it's better than a kick in the groin.
