We've ground out a few wins this season but haven't really twatted anyone yet. We played really well and were really comfortable against Blackburn by all accounts but we've not really punished a team. Yet.... I'll take any sort of win obviously but someone's going to get it soon. Could well be tomorrow.

Fucking hell.

Vaguely remember that. So no official apology from LFC then?

Genuine questions: Did the families of the 39 murdered Juventus fans of Heysel in '85 ever get an apology from Liverpool FC? Did any of the Liverpool fans ever face criminal charges for causing the deaths of the Juventus fans? Just wondering like.

Wonder how many of the 20 PL clubs would beat Genk?

Sure the actual pitch got levelled out a few years back. The buildings show a slope but I'm sure the pitch is level.

Can't see that much of a problem with it tbh. I know he's still very young but they've obviously seen enough in him to take a chance. MK Dons are £2m up on the deal, the lad gets to train with Chelsea and have a really good chance at developing as a player.

You forgot Scotland.

hurray

Could well miss all 3 group games. If we qualify. Well done chap, nice one.

You sure on that? Straight red wasn't it? Automatic 3.

Violent conduct. 3 games.

The studs were on the top of his foot rather than the ankle, I guess well find out soon enough when they have the x-ray results. Gulp.

Dense.

Gut reaction is that if they sent him back out for the second half to try to run if off then it's not that bad. Bad sprain/twist maybe but if it was serious then they would have subbed him at HT.

Let the kneejerk injury sweepstakes begin.... Metatarsal. 3 months.

No reason for Terry to drop back 4 yards deeper than anyone else. Both of them switched off. Poor stuff.

Any of wor lot playing? Just seen the Cabaye thread. nnnggghh.

Still find it hard to give a shit what happens to him tbh. It all equals out eventually.

Bet the cunt could get into a locked Ford Focus within a minute though.

Absolutely delighted with the start we've made and I must admit I'm a bit surprised too. We've played really well in patches and the injection of a few pacey players has meant we've now got a Plan B and can play on the break, although I don't like it when we sit back and try to soak it up away from home. 15 points from 21 is superb no matter how you get them and Pardew deserves a lot of praise for beating the dross. The bigger tests are still to come and we need to avoid injuries in key positions as the cover we have simply is not adequate. That must be addressed in January with a couple of players being brought in to add a bit of depth. No reason whatsoever why we shouldn't aim for 60 points as others have mentioned and if we can continue to beat the dross then we'll finish 7th. There will be ups and downs from now til May but we need to just keep on winning the winnable games and we'll not drop out of the top 10.

£190 season tickets for U18's. Tenner a game and it keeps the young fans interested.

Just a quick point regarding this 'tough start' that Bruce is whinging about. Using last season's league ladder placings: Chelsea 2 Liverpool 6 WBA 11 Us 12 Stoke 13 Norwich 22 Swansea 23 Total = 89 placings. 4 at home and 3 away. Points gained = 6. Our supposedly 'easy' start using the same criteria: Arsenal 4 Fulham 8 Villa 9 Sunderland 10 Blackburn 15 Wolves 17 QPR 21 Total = 84 placings. 3 at home and 4 away. Points gained 15. Not exactly fool-proof but if he thinks he's hard done because of the nasty fixture computer then it's fucking spin. He's had an easier start, on paper, than us yet has still managed to fuck things up big time. He's a conman who's twisting things to keep his job.

That good? Not seen much of him at all tbh.

You're one of the better mag posters on there like, at least you add something and not just on the wind-up like at least 3 other posters from this forum. I normally am tbf. Compared to Sewelly, Sima and Alexthegreat you're a half decent poster. You are Masterclass on there aren't you? No. You are close though. Fair play. I have edited it like.
