thats a worry. done mine and carried on to finish an assault course, then couldn't walk unaided for a few weeks and it's still a weak spot. hope it's just hurting with no real damage.

as was carl serrant, whats your point ? Two seasons of watching Raylor and Santon, it was nice to see a natural LB, and a good one at that. And you knew exactly what i meant. Watch your letterbox the hard bit for me was deciding between serrant, wayne quinn or jason drysdale God, didn't Dalglish sign about four LB's serrant was keegans, that was after keegan (as player) tipped john ryan for england.

no one think he was at fault for their first one on one ? ball broke in the box and their player was with marveaux/anita (?) and colo just seemed to run towards it then leave it ?

same was said last season, if not more so.

well, thats one hell of a standard he's set for himself.

just watched the elbow on mapou early on again. i reckon chris waddle needs to see it again, "accidental" my arse.

If anything he should be starting ahead of Coloccini at the moment, not Taylor imo. true, but you aren't allowed to say it.

that was the krul of last season, lets hope he's back for good.

except we haven't done that today.

and i'm sure we'll play him as soon as he's ready. Maybe, maybe not. When he came back from France he went straight in to our team against Spurs without any real 'full training' with the rest of our squad, more or less. Therefore i think he's had quite a lot of training over there this time as well. Will he start? dunno about that, time will tell. my guess is he's being monitored, in august they thought he was ready, maybe not so now, different injuries, different recoveries and perhaps they are worried after his last comeback.

and i'm sure we'll play him as soon as he's ready.

so he's been out for best part of two and a half months. he's just returned to full training this week but looking good for it and some are complaining that he isn't being thrown straight in ? strange place this at times.

it was known as the olympic legacy, they were in the original bid and was one of the main reasons london won the bid in the first place.

wrong again, labour had plans for post games, which would've cost but they'd have seen them through, the tories have none because they don't actually give a shit as it doesn't affect them (thats their credo, theres plenty of evidence)

just a few things to threow into the mix, stiflers financial breakdown doesn't include monies spent by visitors and participants who wouldn't have been here otherwise (balanced off naturally against those that stayed away because of it). it was affordable, the proof being that people did afford it when they didn't need to, they chose to, it's not like it's a utility. it's all very clever to now say "we should've spent the money elsewhere" now, at the time of the bidding, the award and till very recently the games were looking good to make a profit. as for the white elephant part, that is as much down to the economy, tory government and the way britain works as the sensible thibg would have been for the olympic stadium to be the national stadium for rugby and football, athletics etc but not, we can't do it like that, instead we have to have 3 huge stadia massively overpriced and underused. why ? because there is a lack of intergration at all levels of british bureaucracy.

How is that good news ? a council getting involved in circumventing planning laws to the benefit of a particular company.

Why not start him against Southampton if fit? He came back against Spurs at home after missing most of preseason and still looked like our fittest player on the pitch. just the standard thing of not starting players who've been out for months.

i think anita would get more of a game if pardew wasn't so wary of the full backs getting caught out, as santon was a few times tonight. i still see him as a possibility of a middle three with sissoko and cabaye but only when both anita and sissoko have the strength to really get through a premier league game. What I don't understand is Anita has more than enough pace to recover better than the Mad Destroyer pace maybe but not the nouse. i feel that tiote is trying to impress and is trying too hard. tiote of old was the perfect coverer, not so sure now.

neither of the two above.

he is at the minute but i don't think it's his natural game. he wants to be the all doing centre mid who can go wherever he's wanted/needed, problem is the prem is a faster, harder league than where he's come from so he's looking knackered an hour onwards, only appearing when he has the ball from then on (no problem with this, he'll know this, the staff will know this and next season, like anita, it will be rectified)

i like how that right hand side sounds, got a rhythym to it like a shepherd counting.
