Going to Cornwall so you'll notice the local economy improve as I drive through
The motorways end at Exeter, which should really tell you something.

I have not heard of "cackers", but I agree "grockles" is an excellent word, really needs to be said in a deep West-country drawl of someone who has drunk half a flagon of Scrumpy.

Hmmm yes. I have spent a lot of time in the New Forest recently, and have heard it used a great deal. My accent does not really do it justice.

"Money was tight when we moved to the Emirates but it's a lot freer now," said Lord Harris. "We could go into the market and probably buy any player in the world, apart from half a dozen who are unbuyable.

"We get a list of the players that Wenger wants. On the list is a centre forward, but I'm not going to tell you who he is.

"You've got to get the other team to want to sell him, but I think he wants to come. It basically comes down to whether the other team can find a superstar to replace him, because they don't have to sell."


Has to be Benzema right?

It's because it's the last part of the Country that people are desperate to get out of. From there on it's green and pleasant land and people are happy to take their time and admire the view.

Yeah I think so. I can't see any reason why either he or Real Madrid would want that transfer to happen, though. Pretty sure I've ranted about it before but Benzema gets strange treatment in the transfer rumour mill. He's been one of RM's best players for years but still constantly gets linked with moves to lesser clubs.

So Abou Diaby having a medical at West Brom. Don't think anyone can wish him anything but good luck. Had a wretched few years, hope he can get on the pitch and stay on it for the Baggies.

I thought the Highways Agency's planning department thought it'd be a waste of money as horse drawn carriages are banned from the network....


Joking, as if the HA would be concerned about saving money...

If Liverpool lose 5-1 at stoke on the opening day of the season they'll be able to claim they've improved from the end of last season.

Hopefully it's Reus.

Why the **** would you broadcast that though?

Can the season start already? If we don't lose anyone then I am so happy about how this summer has gone.

For some reason people always seem to get confused between money in the bank and what Arsenal's transfer budget is.

I swear there has been an Arsenal have a **** load of money to spend story every year for the last few years. You lot are so boring anyway, Bees are so much more exciting,

Yeah and you know what our net transfer spend is in the last two and a half years?

No idea but I know it has not increased much at all, just spent it all on one star player which is a good move at this stage. Said it for a while but you are really not far away now. Has Jon Toral been playing at all pre-season for you?
