Personaly, I've always prefered the long range missiles/volleys to the dribble practice ones.

like that's gonna make a difference to them! Yes and no... I mean sure they may have an almost unlimited pot of money, but paying over £30m for a player who turns out to be (relatively speaking) shite will not bode well with fans/people at the club.

Quite the contrary in my opinion! An instinctive volley from 40yards(?) means quick feet placement/adjustement, and then hitting the ball with as much power as possible yet still being able to apply the dip. Had Taylor scored Essien's goal and Essien scored a volley like Taylor's there wouldnt even be a debate. Anyway this is evidently splitting opinions, so not much point arguing much more.

Keep him playing for it then it that's what making him perform like he is tongue.gif .. but give it to him the end

oh yeap, NUFC are a great side to put you back in your stride. We sure helped Kuyt get into the swing of things.

Having lived in Pompey for almost 18 months, I can understand why people wouldnt be looking forward to the trip there. The home parts of the ground are okay I guess, but that away stand is simply a hole.

6 points would be a very good return from those seven games.

Don't agree with that at all actually.

"you're" ... sorry

Hell no, it wasn't. Taylor's goal was pure luck, Essiens shot was simply brilliant. Taylor's goal for GotM.

And the old argument against that ... the "you don't understand, he acts like that to attract all the attention on to him blabla" is tiresome too. No, he's just simply a twat.

Meh, he's just an attention whore who loves to be proved right.

For a second I thought he was never going to make it back from his "hummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm" of reflection over the question though.

Aye good on him. Ferguson's bullcrap emotional blackmail at the beginning of the week about Ronaldo's dive was sickening.

On the radio they said the first goal was definitely onside. It was level at worst, definitely not "offside" in the literal interpretation. Just seen some highlights... and Martins' first goal is 100% onside. Easy decision.

6 goals in two visits to Ewood... shamon

aye... hopefully this isn't the end of the string he's been pulling on, and there's more and more to come... huge 3 points today.

Fair enough... I'm actually more inclined to believing this than what Roeder or NUFC would have to say about the incident

why all the fucking secrecy, he could tell us what the comments were regarding, instead of feeding us that.

yearrr... what was that all about?!

Strange indeed then... because the timing of the whistle (it went just after Sib had taken it round the keeper) suggested offside.

There was something so Boumsongesque about that second goal, it was almost poetic.

not only movement, Martins needs to be hitting the target on a MUCH more regular basis.

Also was nice to see the team peak twice in the game... first and second half. Instead of playing well then disappearing completely after the break.

exactly, in a way I'm glad it didn't count AND that we still won, kinda makes it fair with regards to the penalty Shocking decision though.
