I can't see what's changed this half? The dominance of possession is remarkable. Real haven't got a look in. Did Pep just blast them at HT and demand higher tempo and better feet? Amazing turnaround. Ronaldo switching to Abidal ain't gonna work!

Pinto is finished. An old man who's reactions are dead. Benzema's header would have gone in at the near post. Zero anticipation happening in Pinto's heid.

Puyol never loses. What a guy. Pepe the cheat exposed. Agree re Ronaldo had a good first half and best on pitch. Just not "amazing".

He shot from a tight angle. It should have been stopped by Pinto's left foot. He closed down well in the corner once, made a strong run that came to nothing but can't see whatever he's done as deserving of superlatives this game so far. He's a fantastic player. No doubt. Just don't see any individual standing out that much tonight. It's the formation and strategy that's fantastic. Like two lines of five and superb throttling of Barca's many creative output potential.

Never seen Iniesta look so bad these 40 minutes (other than the sublime trap out of the air early doors). Messi rubbish so far too. So these two will inevitably combine and make magic now.

Mourinho is a genius. This reminds of 10 man Inter when they held Barca. The straight line of five at the back supported by secondary workers in front whenever they don't have possession. Barca have so much quality they are capable of producing magic but Jose is genius whatever happens. Ronaldo left is exposing Dani Alves' defensive frailty. Poor reactions by Pinto for the goal. Slow.

Trump's golf course may never be viable. The golf course will probably not generate enough money to cover it's operating costs let alone the start-up. What Trump doesn't know is the weather on the "Great doons of Scatland", or whatever the fuck he's named them. There is no way they will get five full months of decent enough weather let alone sell all the green fees in that window of opportunity. He needs to build the hooses and get them selt if he's going to wash his face. Everything else is a distraction from his real purpose which is, unsurprisingly, making money. That Debra Storr is a disgusting creature but on the clubhouse design she is absolutely correct. It is an abhorrence and it does indeed remind of the Victorian lunatic asylum, presumably from whence she came. The Donald eh. The original. No idea how Scatland operated without him.

Jesus, it was a £5 fine back in the day for pissing in a doorway in the Upperkirkgate but I agree, fine them a token amount and we'll all move on.

Money can buy you a gold-digger but when it's obvious that he's too thick to earn anything like a survivable wage after the career that provided the above-average income, the gold-digging bitch reckons it's time to check out and take the house and as much dough as she can. Some might feel sorry for the man, fleeced by the cow, but surely it's the man's utter stupidity and inadequacy that results in him losing half his wealth to a woman who was always going to use him? It was his radar that was bust, an instinctius defunctum that cost him but it wasn't like he was left with fuck all. With a smidgeon of intelligence and some hard work and application, he might have seen the score, built a new career and found success by finding the real meaning of happiness. Do we feel sorry for Gazza too? They had it all but were too up themselves to appreciate it, too divorced from the real world and too stupid to think that it would never end. Cunts like this are no different to any other stupid misguided fuck that walks the planet, other than the big houses and the flash cars. Depression, alcoholism, drug addiction or whatever they end up with are symptoms of their weaknesses and fundamental personality disorders, personalities that aren't improved by material wealth and public adulation.

I reckon earning over half a mill a year qualifies as excellence in his field. When someone pays you more than 20 times the annual average, that's excellence. Good post. Definitions are key here. How do we define the "fragile mentality" that you refer to? I reckon this is way harder to capture. Where there are grey areas, this is fertile ground for corporate shysters and con-men. The explosion of prozac and other uppers brings billions to the pharmaceutical industry yet the symptoms, causes and effects are largely undefined. "I'm depressed" as an excuse to get off work doesn't wash with me. If you're mentally not strong enough to contribute, you're not strong enough to live. The gene pool would be greatly nourished by eliminating nanny who's in charge of the state. It's a cop out for the losers and the weak.

Nice contribution. No attempt to engage. Just pish basically. Who the fuck are you? Flattered as I am that you are able to comment on both my mental state and my posting history, I've never encountered anything you've ever said previously. You must be a particularly boring bastard. On topic... "Depression" being a "chemical imbalance"? Get te fuck. It's an industry nowadays that's become very profitable for many. Weegies I can understand empathising with this shite. Jerry excepted. The sickie/invalidity claim frequency marks their lack of integrity. I saw a dog with three legs going up Scolty Hill the day. This whippet-like creature might have had a reason to be depressed but no, it gone on with it, living and loving life to the full, sans the back right and tongue oot, panting and slavering with glee. Svetlana in the Soprano's I might understand feeling a bit sorry for herself, especially when that bitch Janice hid her prosthetic but no, she's gets up, dusts herself down, has sex with a gangster, enjoys the odd glass of vodka and retains a wicked old sense of humour. My own mental health defects that mark me as a raging sociopath are nothing to do with "depression". That's a cop out. I'm the real deal.

I didn't see the Freddie Flintoff show last week because I didn't choose to. Did I miss anything? The advert on TV just now is tremendous. The loser turning to dust in his shoes. There was no doctors lines for depression in my day. As Jerry Sadowitz correctly said in the Music Hall last year, Britain's gone gay. Sportsman gets paid a fortune then goes into a black hole. Boo fucking hoo.

He is such a disgrace to humanity, an arselicker who loves the process of licking irrespective of the size, quality, taste and smell of the arse. Kelvin is just a wanker.

When you've been shot at for weeks on end and seen your mates get killed, tortured and desecrated, then we'll listen to your moral highbrow lecture on how to behave with dead enemies. Until then, talk of only what you know to prevent you making a wholehearted idiot of yourself. Sink to their level? Holy fuck.

Morally wrong? No it's not... or... says who? Anyway, they're dead so where's the cruelty? There are no rules in war. Pissing on dead people who wanted you dead is so passe.

I'm for independence simply on the premise that it's easier to manage a smaller organisation than a larger one. And not so easy for corrupt politicians to get away with it. Especially how thick we Scots are. We can't even steal cleverly. Then the fun will start. Fifers v. Dundeh. The roch of Glesga byraway v. the pseudo wannabes in Embra. Newton Mearns v Eaglesham. Cardenden v. Lochgelly. Border toun v. border toun. NE v. a cunt Sutherland v Caithness Central belt v the rest and all done with an underlying shitey Labour-voting pack mentality, a nation of lazy bastards. Aye it'll be fun until it settles sown, if indeed it ever does but as Ewan said in trainspotting, better than getting fucked by effete guffy cunts like Blair and Boris amd Milliband and all the rest of those disgusting fucks in West Minister, as the tcheuchie said on the news.

Yes it was. The courage and the confidence is what I admire the most. On the Yang side, those fucking hat brims. Am I the only one who thinks Rickie Fowler's choice of headwear is twattish?

Now this would be an interesting coupling... and particularly topical.

In terms of prioritising (which for some weird as fuck reason is a word that the spellchecker on here is nae too fond of), I wouldn't be too upset if this military-spoused gash doesn't get the opportunity to make a contribution to my substantial appetite-relieving any time soon. Don't get me wrong, I'm not gay. I just don't reckon these pieces of meat will be exceptional, certainly not worth a chase. Too much good pussy around to bother with the meat who married meat.

You're going to fit in just swell, real swell. Can I just ask, have you ever supported a Scottish team, or any team? Also, what country are you from/did you grow up in?

Having seen it again and again on SSN just now, it was an even better strike than I first thought. It would have taken an excellent save to prevent it. Charlie Mulgrew's free kick on the other hand was a goal MOSTLY because of the keeper fuck up. Pernis was only slightly culpable towards Kari's shot going in.

So just because you say there was absolutely zero fault from the keeper, that's how it is? And your qualifications are that you've played 300 plus games in that position? So no-one else is allowed to contribute to the debatable point on which you and I fundamentally disagree? Any keeper would be embarrassed by getting beat from there. Your point where you said "usually" was a give-away. Anticipation of everything is what marks a good keeper. Much as it was an awesome strike, is it ok by you if I attribute a quarter of the reason for the goal to Pernis? Am I allowed to have this opinion? As a newbie, how do you feel about the assertion that AFC fans are particularly negative? I'm still waiting for a response from that insulter of Aberdeen fans. You're not his alter ego are you?

I totally agree with 2, 3, 5 & 6. We disagree on the main point however. I give a 20 to 30% contributory negligence factor to Pernis.

I'm not seeking to take any shine off. I have zero precedence in this regard. Your insult towards Aberdeen fans generally is noted. So you deny any keeper culpability?
