Spot on Andy. You can actually see it in the way the footy team play. Rio Ferdinand - "I'm a cultured footballing centre back. Must get good write up in the Sun about my cultured footballing style. Must get plaudits.....wooops I've passed straight to their stiker" Stevie G - "I'm the energentic heartbeat of the team. Must take the game by the scuff of the neck and get the headlines. Must run and SHOOT....oh that one hit the advertising hoardings again". hmmmmmm... hoardings eh....

Lampard is a far better all-round player than Gerrard.

I mean, I bought into the common view of Lampard - overhyped, overrated etc. Until I'd actually seen him play a few times, and you really appreciate just how bloody good he is.
Gerrard looks less effective in real life than On The Telly.

Sorry to hijack but since someone else did it with that gay middle class lawn game, here goes:
If I had a frozen pizza earlier, but only ate half of it, and now I want to reheat the other half, and initially it went in at 220 degrees for 12 minutes but obviously now it's not fozen any more, what temperature do I put it in at and for how long?

Blue nose thinks Liverpool player is shite shocker.......  |

It's pizza. Cook it until it's the right level of cripsiness on the bottom, brownness on top and hotness within. Put the oven on hot.
Omni, are you on drugs, with those comments about fat Frank?

I was hoping not to have to go and poke it every couple minutes, but thanks for your assistance.

I'd guess 6-8 minutes in a pre-warmed oven. But poke it before taking it out.

No Andy I was genuinely suprised the first time I saw him live since he became a megastar (i.e. Frank Lampard rather than Frank Lampard Jnr). Really good. And then he was really good the next time. And the next. Top quality player.
Lucky - I don't think Gerrard is sh!te. I just think he gives less overall over the full game than Lampard. You could argue that his 97th minute, 456 yard screamers and / or influence over refs and / or comical diving to win vital set pieces make up for it, but still, I'd rather have Fat Frank in my team.

Cooked pizza is much nicer cold than re-heated anyway.
