David Icke - Son of God

He probably will. Brucey likes him and if Wigan go down they'll not be able to keep him. He's vastly overrated by the Mackems though, if they think he's going to be the final piece in the jigsaw they'll be disappointed. There's a reason he's spent most of his career playing for teams who have finished in the bottom half of the Premier League - he's incapable of stringing together a run of decent performances and he's got an ego bigger than Nolan's arse. He'll have the odd game where he's unplayable and then he'll disappear for the next half a dozen or so. The reaction on here when David Craig said we'd made an eleventh hour bid for him should tell you all you need to know.

The fight for the number one jersey needs to be between Krul and Forster. Harps just isn't agile enough to play at this level for another year. There have been quite a few instances where he was slow getting down and it's cost us points (Sturridge's goal at St James' for example). That's not something that's going to get any better.

On that note I fancy us fielding the following team next season: Krul Alves - Nesta (circa 2001) - Coloccini - Enrique HBA - Nolan - Tiote - Robben Messi Ranger

Still better than fucking Parker

I've seen him a few times this season and while he's been better than the shite around him he's never been "phenomenal" as Oscar said. He's the midfielder of choice for daft twats who believe that Barca would struggle with the physicality of the English game and that the Premier League is the best in the world. Old fashioned player from the south and consequently he's bummed by the London media. We're a whole ten places ahead of them but Scott Parker wouldn't get into our strongest starting XI and I'd challenge anyone to say otherwise.

I got that. Sent the box office another email.

Ameobi - Keep. Best - Keep. Lovenkrands - Say thanks and send him on his way. Ranger - Keep but loan out. Bring in two new strikers too.

Bit much. I think we're one centre back away from having a very strong back line though.

He's so far up Fergie's hoop I'm not surprised he came across as a twat.

If they want to make the League Cup more interesting they should just exclude the teams who have qualified for Europe. It'll reduce fixture congestion, give us a new winner every year and stop Arsenal/Man United reserves from romping it.

Even Coloccini is horrified.

Is that Ranger doing the press ups? If so what the fuck has he done to his hair?

I love Kuqi

It's all subjective I suppose, but whenever I see anyone quiz journalists about their sources I cringe. It's not reasonable for her to demand who told him what so he can act as petty and dismissive as he pleases.

She's acting the fuckwit to be fair. Journos will never reveal their sources because if they do the chances are they'll lose it. He's well within his rights to refuse to answer the question.

Colin Warris is claiming Routledge isn't coming back and we've secured his replacement on a Bosman.

They are supposed to be close to signing Taiwo on a free, can't see both going. TalkSport do just make shit up so I don't expect it to be true.

TalkSport saying AC Milan are close to an £11 million deal for him now I know it's £4 million less but if he had to go I'd take that one. Nee chance I want to see him pulling on the dippers strip next season.

Aye, it's not as if Enrique has made me think he wants to be here next season.

I'm of the same opinion.

Andy Cole has too. http://www.bbc.co.uk/wear/content/images/2007/12/22/78624950_207x352.jpg

Didn't they do something similar with Keane? They gave him a new deal and he left a few months later.

Seba Abreu is a bastard for this. Did it in the World Cup quarters to win it and did it playing for Botafogo after he'd missed the first by doing it and double bluffed the keeper. Big balls to do that like. indeed. Imagine in our run-in now, and ameobi suddenly decides to chip one, and ofcourse misses. Keep banging em shola. See Oba Martins for shit penalty reference...cunt. Taking penalties with his weaker foot just for the lulz
