Trains. I once got charged £120 for a train ride back from an away game at Watford a few years ago. Any permitted route my arse.

Come on, elaborate!

It's the Mail so I wouldn't pay much attention to it. That said, it's disgusting if the bit about Bridge being on £90kpw is at all true. Players like him and his two clubs (current and former) are ruining football. Not saying that article is true but if if it then we should report Manchester City to the FA.

What about all those players that cost £5m+? 5 of them last time I checked... Don't let that get in the way of your agenda though. Yeah, we are doing great. Thanks for looking at the league table. I didn't say we were doing well, did I? I said we've brought players in (forget net spend and all that for a monent) who aren't "bargain basement". I'm not bothered about any other teams. I stated that Mike Ashley deals in bargain basement. Was the signing of :colo: bargain basement?

Where do you sit at St James' Park? From your username I presume the Gallowgate? If so then surely you can't see it.

At FC Dordrecht.

Coach at NAC Breda!

Hopefully he will start on Monday night.

Mackem slag. Haven't even read it yet. Don't. Just don't. Damn.

Mackem slag. Haven't even read it yet. Edit: Have now, clueless bitch.

Scary that you believe we have the quality of Given waiting in the wings The FACTS would tend to back me up. Last season's records league records. HARPER Played 19 Points gained 26 Goals for 26 Goals against 23. Average goals conceded per game 1.21 - record extrapolated over full season - 52 points - i.e 10th in league. GIVEN Played 19 Points gained 17 Goals for 19 Goals against 42. Average goals conceded per game 2,21 - record extrapolated over full season - 34 points - i.e 19th in league (relegation) That's a neat thing you're doing comparing Given's worst ever season (due to injury,) to what's probably Harper's best. Not really. There is no other season where a reasonable comparison could be made, but 19 games each gives a chance to do so. Whatever damned lies and statistics may portray those figures are pretty stark. To imply a Premiership team would play someone not fit while a decent and fit keeper sat on the bench is crazy. If that was the case then Keegan really did have it in for us ! No, Given's fitness would have been tested to the limits before any game he played in. You're typing s****. Stats can be manipulated in many ways to show pretty much what you want them to say. Do you think the 15 goals Given conceded in 3 games against Man United x2 and Villa last season would not have been conceded had Harper been playing? Those stats don't take into account the quality of opposition amongst other things. Sure, stats can be manipulated but that is a whole season split 19 games each so read into it what you will. Get away - you mean I haven't taken into account the quality of the opposition - then please do it yourself but if you'll find over a season they probably both played against the better and poorer sides equally. If you read the post you'll see it's league games so we didn't play Man Utd THREE times in the stats.[b/] Harpers games would have had us 10th Givens would have had us relegated, that's not really manipulation and even allowing for variable things it's still a pretty stark contrast. What on earth are you on about? There are so many factors not taken into account here, you seem to think that we only field one player in every game, that being a 'keeper. I still haven't forgotten about your Scott Parker stats thread, greg. Aye.... When you've got an agenda you can make stats say whatever the f*** you want them to.
