Can't see Carroll being convinced. Surely he feels English and that's that.

Keegler got himself a regular spot being a pundit, then? Glad I don't have ESPN...

I'm not falling into the Barton trap again. The guy's just a waste of everyone's time.

I guess technically you could depending on the attacker's involvement/positioning... having just seen the goal though there isn't a single offside at any point. Don't know what the messing about with the linesman in the aftermath was all about.

Vieira completes the Man City move then... rather strange signing really. Plus I hate Vieira with a passion, shame that he's back in the Prem.

We do need to get that Yellow and black combo going again, it really works well. Funny how high Puma are putting the badges, they keep getting higher and higher, they'll be on the shoulder soon.

The people also simply just don't really seem to want it. Certainly not at a cost of the national leagues.

The idea of watching European style football with European type refereeing all the time is not something I would look forward to. I remember this same debate coming every so often as long ago as I can remember and I am glad to see it is no further forward at all. The current CL format is a good compromise.

Unless it's substantially more money, no. Definitely not.

I find some of Macca's comments a little ridiculous. Is the right answer surely.

Haven't been to many games, but it is my pride that I was there for both the Peperami planes and the Bowyer Dyer fight ...

It was?

Shola and Crynaldo.

Will never believe that was intentional. Good improvisation though. From that list I'd say Rooney's volley.

Indeed he did. Developed really quickly with us, remember his first goal took a while to come but after that he couldn't stop scoring in 02-03. For me he edges out Dyer in our decade XI because he played more often and more consistently well.

Yeah that's great Joey. We'd be better off having a delusional schizophrenic that was at least half decent rather than Barton.

Nah. Sutton was class, but Shearer was in machine mode with Blackburn. Les was a similar type of player to Sutton but a better version.

Thankfully you had to quote the whole thing though

We could have easily won the home game vs Sporting 1 or 3 nil as well. I remember a Milner chance late on where it looked he couldn't miss. What a week that was, 1-4 to ManU in Cardiff too just a few days later.

Don't think so at all. It was mainly media hype because of what happened with Gullit. I'm sure Sir Bobby and Shearer were level with each other, which showed in their relationship after that. This would apply to the Bellamy quote too, just got himself worked up and looking for someone to blame.

I guess if it's Puma so be it. Some points that I really hope for however: - Enough with the centred badge please. - Enough with a patch on the back. - Enough with the huge patch around Northern Rock (if they renew, or with whatever the next sponsor is) - Use Red lettering/numbering, why not?

exactly we're stuck!

That's probably the only really debatable position for the first XI... Woodgate's partner. I guess that they were part season wonders works against those two.

1) BEST TOON DEFENDER FROM THE LAST DECADE Well, Woodgate I guess 2) BEST MIDFIELDER Tough, one... Rob Lee was on his last legs in this decade, maybe Robert or Speed, but I would got with SOLANO. 3) BEST STRIKER Shearer, obviously. Rought start to the decade for him, but he was back with a vengeance. 4) BEST OVERALL PLAYER Yeah, Shearer here too surely, he reinvented himself well. 5) BEST MANAGER Easiest question of the whole thing, the one and only SIR BOBBY 6) MOST DISAPPOINTING PLAYER Owen maybe, he had his moments, but in hindsight it was all such a waste of everyone's time. 7) WE SHOULD HAVE SIGNED... 8) WE SHOULD NEVER HAVE LET GO... BELLAMY. He was the best player at the club the season he left. 9) BEST HOME GAME 4-3 vs ManU H (01-02) ? 10) BEST AWAY / NEUTRAL GAME 3-1 vs Arsenal A (01-02) 11) WORST GAME 0-1 vs Partizan H (03-04) 12) BEST GOAL SCORED Bellamy vs Feyenoord 13) WORST GOAL CONCEDED There have been too many pathetic ones... 15) BEST HAIRCUT Scott Parker 16) WORST HAIRCUT Jonas 17) BEST LOOKING PLAYER Speedo? 18) UGLIEST PLAYER Marcelino 19) DIRTIEST PLAYER Joey Barton obviously 20) BEST STARTING XI OF THE DECADE Given Beye - Woodgate - Saylor - Bernard Solano - Speed - Jenas - Robert Shearer - Bellamy 21) PREDICTIONS FOR THE NEXT 10 YEARS - MORE /LESS / EQUALLY SUCCESSFUL Tricky, in a way it will be VERY difficult to be more successful given the highs achieved by Bobby's team. The highs have been, the lows low. Just hope for things to cheer and feel proud about. 22) IF YOU COULD CHANGE ONE THING FROM THE LAST DECADE Maybe Bobby's sacking, although I agreed with it.
