You can only make your judgement based on what you see them do though can't you. He looks to be one of the best players in this league by some distance at the moment. He scores and creates a lot of goals, passes well, seems decent with both feet.

For what we'd pay for McGeady we could probably get Dorrans from WBA

No player is ever going to be sacked if he has a market value, especially by penny-pinching Mike Ashley.

You'd fucking hope so after a broken jaw. It's not like he's had open heart surgery

Jose for me. For the first time in a long while I genuinely like and rate a lot of players in our squad so it was a tough one.

For those who haven't seen this already. http://blog.guerrillacomm.com/2010/03/heineken-soccer-love.html

That's because their sports are so fucking tedious that they've got nothing better to do. I can't stand most of our lot. Bunch of professional shit-talkers and Fergie bummers (yes Andy Gray, i'm talking about you). The worst has to be Andy Townsend. What a total cuntstain!

To be fair, for the size of town, and the number of actual supporters, Scunny always have a good away following. Any chance to get away from Scunthorpe is grabbed with both hands

Looks like Keiran is stirring my porridge - I shagged her last week

Yeah but rules are for gays

Shame really, for a while he looked like the answer to our left-side problems

I guess it's a toss-up between Joe Cole and Stewart Downing for my squad then.

Aye, pure waste of a squad place that like. I'd just take the one. How often do keepers get injured? I reckon it's daft taking 3, especially when Rooney can play there if need be

23 man squad. My pick would be: Rob Green Joe Hart Ashley Cole/Stephen Warnock if Cole's not fit Leighton Baines Wes Brown Mich Richards John Terry Rio Upson Lescott Carrick Gerrard Lampard Barry Joe Cole Stewart Downing James Milner Wright Philips Aaron Lennon Carlton Cole Peter Crouch Wayne Rooney Jermain Defoe

are our lot playing in plimsoles or something? I don't see the Egyptians slipping over all the time.

Sadly, with the standard of refereeing in this country, that's pretty unlikely.

It is broke but only since they introduced that wanky 'interfering with play' rule. No fucker knows what's going on, not even the referees. They should just revert back to the old system - if you're offside, you're offside. Whistle blows, freekick, everybody's happy.

why was he allowed to go because he's a cunt!

Ashley's a cunt who is, for a large part, responsible for our current predicament. However, I do believe that his financial strategy for the club ie. making it as close to self-sufficient as possible is absolutely spot-on. I don't think any of us will be able to forgive and forget the fucking shambolic way in which Ashley orchestrated our downfall but I don't think anyone can deny that if we return to the Premier League we will be in a much better position than when we left it. Ok, we might spend a couple of season struggling in the bottom half of the table but we'd been doing that for a while anyway. It's far too easy to bury your head in the sand as a fan and ignore the club's spiralling debt but it doesn't take a genius to work out that we were seriously in the shit. Relegation hasn't helped that but it has enabled us all to reign in our expectations and for the club to go someway to sorting itself out. The Premier League has had a reality check in the past couple of seasons and I think the days of gung-ho spending are gone (except for the likes of Man City). We might even see some clubs go out of existence as a direct result of spending beyond their means. Thankfully it looks like we won't be one of them.

sorry, but if he thinks that a majority of the team is good enough in the premiership over the summer, he'll deserve the sack What the fuck else is he supposed to say? "If we go up we'll have to ship out half the team because they're championship standard cloggers. We'll be looking to bring in some genuine permier league quality players if/when we go up because we know the likes of Best, Nolan, Butt, Smith and Ameobi won't be able to hack the pace." I imagine that'd do wonders for moral and team spirit.

When we signed him I thought he was more of a Beckford type player - direct, pacy, tricky, however it seems he's more of a physical, hold up, back to goal type of striker which we already have in the form of Carroll, Ranger and, to a lesser extent, Ameobi. I'd give him a go alongside Lovenkrands to see what he can do, rather than playing him with Carroll all the time.

Candygram for Mungo! Candygram for Mungo!

Dean Windass is a retard! Anyone see him on live score centre on skysportsnews last saturday, he made Merson sound like a genius. He was great crack when we thumped Darlo' pre-season and his retardation just makes him that whole bit funnier. You just have to laugh at the chap. It definitely makes the show more entertaining but with him and Merson on the show it's like day release from special school. I'd sooner watch either of them than that scottish prick with the earring.

Fucking pitiful performance although I thought Van Armpit, Fitz Hall and Colo had decent games. One thing about us that consistently irritates the fuck out of me is why none of our players shout 'man on'. Surely we haven't, by coincidence, managed to cobble together a group of players who have never heard 'man on'. The number of times our midfielders get robbed of possession while playing with their clackers is fucking infuriating - yes Danny Guthrie, i'm mostly talking about you. SORT IT OUT!!
