I'll take your David Luiz and raise you a:

The Forum?

Here are some "rules" for the duration of the World Cup (please add your own...): 1. Avatar must be team related 2. When referring to your team, you must refer to them as "we" / "you" 3. Belgium is the BEST team in the world and Fellaini has the BEST hair in the world (even better than Charlie Mulgrew). In fact, Fellaini is the most know hair footballer in the world.

Unless the Lemon Tree has changed dramatically since I put on gigs there a few years ago, I'd say it's more than a little more expensive than the others! It's a great venue in my view, but you need to pull a really big crowd to break even and to get a good atmosphere in the place because it's so big! 300+ really for the place to be "busy" - I only managed that once! What would be cool, but much more work (and probably costly / lots of red tape to get through / etc) would be in a public space like Union Terrace Gardens or something. But you would need to factor in getting the Cooncil on board, getting a stage, hiring all the audio equipment / backline, portaloos, security, and all that jazz. I'm sure there are lots of other things too. What's going on down at Amadeus these days...? It's probably crumbling so not a viable option. Beach ballroom? Probably not viable because it's probably like a magnified version of Lemon Tree in terms of size, cost, etc. Those Live @ the Beach gigs seem to have died a death. Sorry - that's probably not much help. I've typed it now though, so I'll leave it.

Haha - awesome idea. What's the name of this app??? Next target - sub 3 hour HM on Sunday.

Wow - that's a cool / weird gimmick that I ain't heard of. It's quite a good idea in some ways - although, can you abandon it at any time you want? I.e. what if you break your leg or something...? You can't exactly smash your running targets if you're on crutches for 8 weeks.

Holland's already gone.

Right, I wasn't aware I could change it...

If that's true - that's got to be the best ever reason for putting in a transfer request. I'd shake his hand every day of the year if it meant he'd sign for Aberdeen...

Chris, I'm sure it will be within your powers to do this... The winner of this tournament gets to have their status (or whatever it's called - the bit where it says "Active Member" for me) changed to World Cup Winner for 4 years, right?

Why the hell not?

Let's all pick a team to "support" - first come first serve... (only one person can have that team for the purposes of this thread). Murr = Italy Paranoid Android = Argentina Gladstone = Belgium

Looks like I may not need to come out of retirement for the Dons after all: http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/27481751 Where do we think Cole will go? He's surely still good enough to compete at a high level - hopefully he doesn't piss off to Qatar or something.

Aye - what Chris said - that's a huge difference. Well ran! Negative split of any sort is good going but a full minute is good - probably shows you have a faster 10k in you (on current fitness) if you could push on that much in the second half.

Same for me Chris. First 5k - 20:08, second 5k 19:56. In fact, that's 22 seconds from 5k PB! I should definitely have a quicker 5k in me.

Aye - that's pretty swift walking!! What's that about 14 minutes per mile or so?

You said your revised target was 62/63 minutes didn't you? Pretty much bang on with 63:20 - gotta be happy with that! Sounding good dude. Remember to keep doing what you're doing and build up gradually - don't just decide that because you're feeling good you're going to go and run 10k in one go. Try adding one km at a time for example. How often are you running 5k? If you're doing it a few times a week, perhaps just try adding 1km to one of the runs. Do that for a few weeks, then add another 1km, do that for a few weeks and so on. It won't be long before you can run 10km without stopping. And if you do it gradually, you'll be picking up the distance and staying at 10min/miles and that's a 1 hour 10k. Ace!

Well done Scorge. The most important thing is finishing in one piece. Lots of positives to be taken from that. Running strong and injury free being the main ones. Did Moose walk it in the end? I don't know Moose's actual name so can't stalk his time.
