As poor as Shola is, the mackems won't want him playing tomorrow. He's scored against them a few times and he will be up for it. Hopefully.

Exactly. Smith setting foot on the park should be the absolute last resort. He'll get booked within 15 mins would be my bet of the day.

Only one candidate for the mascot. Little arsehole.

Given the lack of options in midfield I'd start with Ameobi and Best up front. They'll put themselves about in their own way and would need to be watched. Let's have a fucking go at them and see what happens. Pump the balls in to them and pick up the scraps.

Guthrie made one mistake which lead to a goal and he clearly kicked the ground which could happen to any player at any time. It could but Guthrie has been dreadful every time I've seen him this season. The games have passed him by and he's looked really poor. Rather throw Gosling in there tbh. That's how much faith I have in Guthrie. I have even less faith in Smith.

I'd rather have cancer as aids.

Going there without Tiote and Carroll makes it tough. They're good at home and they've beaten better teams than us this season at their gaff. I reckon we'll be relying on set-pieces to notch and can't see us keeping them out. Prove me wrong lads. 2-0.

Bothroyd's fucking shit. Don't think Carroll will go this window, probably next. Isn't football wank sometimes?

Aye, lets see..probably warming the bench at Birmingham. It'll be interesting to see where he ends up after his contract ends. If he's pricing himself out a of a move now his wage demands are only going to go north once he knows the new club won't have to fork out a transfer fee in the summer. The fucker will end up at Wigan if he's not careful.

WITH HIS COCK WHILE LISTENING TO IT ON THE RADIO, THE FUCKING SHIT SHITHOUSE.

Keep it tight for the first 20 mins and we've got a canny chance of taking something from the game. Concede early and we're fucked tbh.

Him being fit is another body in front of Smith in the CM queue. Whether he plays on Sunday or not, that's got to be a good thing.

If he wants to be somewhere else then it's fair enough. Let's see where he ends up. Not exactly the end of the world but would have been a good addition to the squad at the price he's going for.

He'll start if he's anywhere close to 100%. I think he'd be prepared to make the injury worse if it meant having 90 mins at the mackems. (Not saying this is the right thing to do btw)

Sent to them from heaven, Geordie bastards, we're their world...

The music played before, during or after a derby means absolutely nothing. It's not even an issue.

They'll all feature at some point because he needs his best players on the park if they're even close to being fit. Adrenaline will get them through the 90.

He'll start.

Fucking Nazi admin.

They'll beat Everton next week. Cahill missing is huge.

A lot can happen between now and the weekend. Wouldn't surprise me if we got Larsson and the mackems signed one or two who all play in the derby. It's a huge game for both sides and their fans. It's the one that really matters.

ITV man. Should have been banned from covering the sport years ago.

What an abortion of a thread (and the deleted shite) this is man.

You are canny aggressive when you've had a drink or two like.

its written by oliver so probably not 'have appointed'....it's happened = facts? What the f*** is he up to? And is this an official role, ie we're employing him? I doubt he's doing it for free? Something's not right. I am a cynical c*** though. Presume Dave means as in will he be directly employed by the club or just do some contract work finding players etc. Either way...
