We had exactly 50 points at the half way mark.

The fact they had all those banners was a little surreal too. Some obviously put a lot of thought and preparation into it. As said it was all so gratuitous. Wankers.

It's over at Getty, watermarked of course. edit: http://www.gettyimages.com/detail/1252109/Getty-Images-Sport

That would be brilliant. We could poach Darren Bent off them and all

Confirmed: http://www.soccerbase.com/results3.sd?gameid=242347 No way was he captain though with Beardsley and Lee out there too.

Think he definitely played. Don't know about him being captain though... a little early in his Newcastle career for that.

Yes. Obviously doesn't matter how but it will probably be underwhelmingly so.

Arjen Robben's in with a good chance now at Bayern. Won leagues with Chelsea and Madrid.

Most certainly.

Already quit ESPN has he?

This sounds like an unbearably petty match to be watching.

Just seen Rooney's goals... lol at his second. Who was that idiot Hull player just lying in the six yard box? Unless he's faited, dead, or has a broken legs (he finished the game of course) there is no excuse for just lying there motionless. What a twat. Playing everyone onside and just getting in the way of his keeper.

Rooney quadruplet... of own goals!

Just want a win, we don't seem to really do thrashings unfortunately, no matter how fired up the players supposedly are.

At least that's something, really pleased for Carroll.

Rooney, awesome

Don't really mind or care losing, but I don't really want the scoreline saying "capitulation" which it is starting to look like.

Some clubs have chants with the same tune, it's certainly not a new one. For example was sung during the Manchester derby game this week... made me do a double (ear) take.

Yawn. How shockingly unexpected!

Can't beat Andy Gray and Tyler. They are the best and compliment each other well.

Love that little magpie on the back, nice touch Otherwise about the font, we'd never see any puma fonts anyway unless we played in Europe next season...

I think it's in league and when he's started.

It could be immense. But because of all the pettiness, the cheating, the unpunished cheating (coughUEFAcough) it's frustrating crap so often.

Yeah, I don't particularly want the skin tight kits either really

Also, what will be the deal with the official store? Didn't Adidas pay some part to have it set up in the first place?
