Liverpool are only 2 points behind Chelsea now!! (albeit with one more game played, but still). Will make things interesting.

Seemed like a decent goal, "crashing one in-off the bar from 25 yards" says the BBC site 

Baros scored the winner on his debut.

 

Really?

actually, no he didnt. Scored the equaliser, Lyon drew 1-1 at home to Nice

BORDEAUX 0-1 LILLE

oh dear 

Well who would have thought it... actually having a run of matches in a team worked. Crazy!

wooohooo the Robins!!! \o/ what a comeback

The player we should be getting from Bordeaux, is MARC PLANUS. Great name, solid centre back... exactly what we need imo. It's weird that he hardly never gets mentioned in England, but I'm sure he'd do very well in England.

oh yeah had actually forgotten.

Duff?

also Tomasson has to fall into this category.

Well... I've seen him play quite a few times, and I'm not really a fan. He's somewhat of a morale player, sometimes will be good sometimes invisible. Has a good height on him and is decent in the air.

Might consider him on loan... but to be honest don't think he'd hack it here. Would get pushed around in this league, wouldnt like it, and would be crap

All three pretty expensive though, from what I can remember.

Normally hotels in Jesmond are your best bet, as they are cheap(er) yet still at walking distance from the city center. Some decent places along Osbourne Road (like Osbourne Hotel itself) or in the streets perpendicular to it.

Forgot to ask you for the photos in question on TT, Nobby. If you wouldnt mind?

"I played with him in England games and he definitely had the mentality of a Man United player"

Got to agree with that though. He would have fit right in.

Some pretty cool quotes there too.

Can't believe they're appealing for compensation for lost gate receipts though!

well...

Doesnt look as bad as we've seen though (Cisse etc...): Getty photos linkarage

Still unlucky for him... However would only laugh if this happened to certain other players in the league...

Dot cotten 

yeah....  what was that about?

"Accrigton Stanley have more strength in depth" 

RobertT?

I agree about straight dissent. Of course that should result in a booking (or worse)

But I've played so many games where the referee has had no sense of logic whatsoever to be able to interpret things. Refs like that are annoying... for no matter what reason they will reach into their pocket. You see it in Spain a lot, where you get matches ending with about 6 bookings on each side. Or like those second yellow cards we saw in the champions league a couple of years back for sarcastic clapping of the first yellow ... quite pathetic.

Not all doom and gloom then:

*sighs* Some people have no clue.

Oh really? Please tell how it is that I have no clue then.

Bump... i'd really like to know tbh.
