if you do the calculation on batemans post, but you need to do it on the 2nd place posters number

299/207 x 100 = 1.44

hence 44% more posts than the 2nd place

edit: no matter what the actual percentage is, the fact that we are doing calculations to figure it out is sadder than the amount of posts he has made

I do, stupidly -- I'm predicting Torres to bag a double against United this weekend.

I know I probably have more chance of Adriana Lima showing up at my place wearing nothing but a trench coat and stilettos, but if he's ever going to fire then this should be the game.

Fo sure. I'm no Suarez fan but I kind of understand the bin dippers' annoyance at the FA throwing the book at him while trying to sweep Terry under the carpet. ****ish in the extreme

Terry is a **** but the reason the FA haven't done anything previously is because of the court case. Does no one understand that?

I understand their argument and it's bullshit. When a cop is on a criminal charge they're suspended on full pay pending the result of the investigation / trial. The same approach is entirely appropriate in this case without prejudicing the trial in any way. By keeping him on it adversely affects the case more IMO by keeping it in the news. In addition you'll find the tension within the national team will be out of control.

He's not a cop though. Look I don't want him as captain of England, I don't even think he's the best centre back that we've got but the reasons the FA haven't acted was because of the court case. He isn't getting special treatment because he's John Terry (no one fucking likes him here) or because he plays for Chelsea. And Suarez wasn't banned for 8 games because he plays for Pool it was because he made a racist comment that was proved after a full review the likes of which Terry's comment will be subjected to in due course.

I know he's not a cop obviously but I'm using it as an example since IMO the parallel is there. This is a representative position and he shouldn't be filling it while this case is underway. I'm not suggesting he should be suspended by his club, that's a private matter between him and his employer but a representative position is different. I guess we'll have to agree to disagree

100% the right decision imo. Stripping him of the captaincy doesn't prejudice his trial and it doesn't preclude him from selection, it simply says that the FA believe he is innocent until proven otherwise but as a consequence of the charge he's facing they can't have him as their figurehead and spokesman for a major tournament, and all the media engagements that entails, until the case is resolved.

It's a ballsy move by the FA, especially considering they blindsided Capello making the decision, but it's for the better of the team. It would have been the elephant in the room every time he was interviewed as England captain all through the tournament and something drummed up by all the tabloids.

The big question is since Ferdinand is vice captain, will he take the armband? There's a real irony in that.

I'd guess that it will most likely be Gerrard, but given his injuries/form so far this season you wouldn't think he'd be guaranteed a place either. I wouldn't be surprised if Rooney got the nod to be honest.

It'll be interesting if Terry and Ferdinand are paired together. I foresee a disaster at the tournament as a result of this delayed trial

man it would be funny if rooney got the nod.

I would give it to gerrard, but i am not sure he will be first choice right now as he is working his way back into form.

I'd give it to gareth barry, or someone of reasonably normal personality

He should be dropped bateman. Not sure about your defence there. Walker at RB. Terry and Cahill in the middle doesn't inspire much confidence either.

Dawson if fit and with a run of games and then maybe Jones / Smalling. Time to build for the future, we won't win the Euro's so give the young blood some tournament experience.

yes i think england's problem has been all the lazy overpaid muppets like ashley cole who couldn't care less about the team. time to throw in some new players who will be proud to wear the shirt. that's why i put in sturridge and the ox on the wings because at least they have some hunger in them. i'd still keep terry though, he's still a quality defender imo and he always gives 100%

Bateman you spoke sense just then! Cept for the terry part. He's a calamity.

England pick players based on top 4 status. Take away Johnny foreigner that does all the hard work for them and they're left wanting. Euros know englands game and know how to get them red carded.

The first manager that picks an England team based in form and not status will be a ballsy mofo and fleet street will have his balls in a vice butting might pay off.

-----------------Hart.
A few stoke, villa defenders, rio
Ox, Adams and more mid table rabble. sturridge, shit even barton for a laugh.
Defoe, Caroll (lol), dyer (swans)

Bench: Rooney super sub, some midlands nutters
