    Ok, from this post I have learnt I need to stop playing so many Video Games, and spend more time on Movies, I haven’t even heard of half of these and I used to be quite a Movie-Buff :(

    You’ve gone a little quiet haven’t you. Been over a month and nothing interesting has happened. Where is your prediction/build up to the big clash this weekend.

  6. 6 NokkonWud20 Mar 2008

    It’s coming, it’s coming.
    I’ve been working on 3D Stuff :p. I keep meaning to post some stuff, I’ll get on to it.

    I know Karl’s real predictions for ‘Grand Slam Sunday.’ After saying “I’m really worried about tomorrow, REALLY can’t see us getting a result” the night before Man Utd THUMPED Arsenal I can see him being on edge still. “Liverpool are due a result” so he’ll predict a cagey 1-0 UTD’s way.
    As for Arsenal Chelsea. He doesn’t ‘rate’ either at the moment so he’ll probs go for a 0-0 or a 1-0 scraped Arsenal win. :P

  8. 8 NokkonWud20 Mar 2008

    Oi, stop remembering the things I say. I’m a joner so I never pick us to beat the big teams. I think Liverpool will win 2-0.
    I don’t rate Chelsea that highly, but they get the job done. Arsenal are good, but have no strength in depth.

    UPDATE YOUR SITE!!!

    Just a few things.

    1)REPLY TO TEXTS
    2)RE: “stop remembering the things I say.” here is a quote for you:
    “People will see how overrated Torres is when he signs for Liverpool, I don’t rate him at all. i’d be suprised if he got 10 goals this season”
    3)I’ve started up my other portfolio site and am gauging interest over at maffew.com to see if it gets enough visitors to keep it up. Statistics say YES, number of comments say NO!
