Was hoping it was Ba at first

Great play by all involved, Jonas, Papiss and especially Benny.

Fearing another tedious and horrible game to watch on our part. Especially given our recent results against the Baggies.

I'm guessing you mean 'sad'?

Huh, ironic that word should be mistyped when he knows so much about it.

His favourites against his least favourites... We might indeed see a rare appearance for the 3!

His very own "Luv it if we beat them" moment?

Yeah. He was certainly very pleased with himself too.

Probably mainly because we're being starved at the moment and they seem to do well against the bigger teams.

2005 - Battered Olympiakos 4-0 at home.  Dyer playing up top with Shearer.  Thought we really could go on and win the Waffa that night.  Also our 100th game in a European competition.

Already... Was at that game. Lovely finish by Dyer. 7-1

How good would it be to beat these at home? Please let it happen!

Would gladly take a Norwich like borefest 1-0 this time!

Likely be exactly the same, yeah

Should have made some special edition bottles with his face and signature on them! Would definitely have got one of those

... like when they made these:

No, certainly. Was confirming what you were saying earlier

Despite the result, everyone seemed pretty deflated at the end.

There was a touch he had not too long before he came off where he stumbled over his feet and the ball. Looked knackered.

Thought he did well overall. Gradually got less and less involved as were incapable of getting the ball down anywhere other than our back line. Needs to stop with the several touches inside our own box though! Maybe he's just that starved for action on the ball!

Full on Perchinho mode today. Got more and more comfortable as the game went on. Probably the only player trying to play positive passes as well as winning the ball back on several occasions.

There seems to be a real intent on playing as little football as possible and most of it facing our own goal. Barely any urgency from anyone right from the start, hardly no one ever ran with the ball. As if we are constantly delighted to be getting throw ins or goal kicks because it will allow us to spend a good 30 seconds to take them.

Big relief to get the win but saved by a moment of magic just like against Villa, although to be fair Cissé could have scored any of his chances. Disappointing that it also shows how much of the second half revival against Sunderland was probably down to them losing a man rather than our own creativity.

Was glad to see the change in having Jonas at the back and Cabaye wide. At least it showed Pards was willing to try something different in order to maybe revitalise our game. In the end Perch was probably our best player, which says a lot. Tragic football

NUFC are a shambles sometimes. The Muamba support on the electronic boards said 'your' instead of 'you're'

 

Along the lines of 'Your in our thoughts'.

Horrendous that. Hope someone got a slap and/or lost their job.

"Nahhh, no way I look like that, no way. Nah" http://i43.tinypic.com/2ijqgxl.png

Their next international team camp should be interesting. What a cunt.

Another internal implosion on the cards. Oh what a shame.

He's been awful all season, it's March and he's just started away at Arsenal in place of a striker that's scored 2 in his first 4 games. Pardew's fucking insane.

He's the anti Ben Arfa. Pardew will grab any excuse to start him.

Cemented himself in the first XI, hopefully. I love seeing him play.

Well at least for another two starts. Then bench time. That's the pattern 

He was better than in his game against Villa today which seemed to garner quite a bit of praise.

We're just relying on luck to not lose this sort of game.

Still losing by the odd goal against a flying Arsenal team isn't that bad. Big test coming up on Sunday. Need to win and play convincingly.

6 league starts

What a silly stat.

Edit: just the 2 league goals as a starter.
