If that's the excuse that they are giving then how can any of those utterly fucking useless cunts ever officiate another match. They've let someone get broken in half and did fuck all.

Fuck off with the fucking FA - we've had two fucking players crocked in the past couple of years and of both occaisions the FA have bottled the big decision with the same fucking cunt of an excuse.

Simpson Williamson combo by the time England have played The way this season has gone we'll end up with a back four of Simpson Williamson Perch Santon after the international fixtures.

Congratulations to the lad, but the way things are going this season I won't be happy until he's back home in one piece.

May be a Giggs but some interesting quotes in these articles. http://writemark.blogspot.co.uk/2011/05/is-dave-whelan-right-when-he-accuses.html http://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/sport/8169234.Dave_Whelan__My_life_story__part_one/

Nah, I'm not greedy. I'd be happy with the current bottom three.

Yep - Martinez on Sky. 'He's just enthusiastic on his full debut' we're his words. Fucking arsehole. Is he a dirty player? From that tackle I'd go with yes.

It smacks of more than inconsistency when it's your team that is on the sharp end of most of the major decisions though.

Fat cunt Quinn on SSN has mentioned that we've had two players injured and mcmanaman is causing us problems with no mention of the bastard being involved in smashing another player's leg. This is going to be the bog standard from the pundits and there will be no further investigation into the shit ref.

I thouhgt the celebration was more from the Church of Ketsbaia to be honest. Temuri be His name.

A 2-1 defeat vs Arsenal in '86. Went with two of my school mates (one of them a Mackem) and stood in the Gallowgate.

The bounce that we've had from the new players is finished. Back to the regular shit.

We'll be lucky if they don't cancel the showing of our match as a show of respect in their hour of mourning.

Along with any records of his time here.

Gone for 4 - not likely but not out of the woods yet. Two wins should do it now in all reality. Three wins would guarantee it.

Great debut. Hostile atmosphere, hostile opposition and hostile officials and came through relatively unscathed.

Pretty much. Once they stopped falling over though, they caused us a hell of a load more problems than the previous 160 minutes of football.

As much as I don't want to be another team that turns up and makes up the numbers, the last six months have left us in a position where we are having to protect our position in this league right now rather than go on a cup run. It's not just the Southampton game, but any further progression in this competition will have an effect on fixtures following UEFA games. Another relegation will be disastrous to the club at this point and unfortunately we have to look at the long term.

Could have scored a penalty tonight and it would have been called offside. Awful, awful officials.

Excellent, excellent news.

Has deservedly been criticised for his performances this season, so should be given the praise he deserves for today's match. Excellent first45 but did fade in the 2nd.Chased down a couple of 'lost causes' and turned them to our advantage and scored a great opener.

I'd have to go for 9/10 - as soon as Ba was scoring goals and the clause was back he wasn't going to stick around when the big offer came in so no blame can be apportioned there. Remy could have been completed quicker to not give Dirty Harry a sniff, but as soon as they offered insane money he wasn't coming here. That may have worked in our favour though as it gave us a bit of a kick up the arse to sign Sissoko now and not wait around until the summer and risk another club coming in between now and then. We've managed to plug some holes in the first team and strengthen two of our weakest areas so have to be pleased with that. Hopefully the owner will see what a clusterfuck this season has been and a) we can stay up and b) keep most of the current squad together, then the summer can be used to strengthen our forward line and bring in three or four more squad players.

Feels a bit weird to be on transfer deadline day and not be anticipating the usual disapointment. Any players in would be nice, like an extra striker or a decent winger, and any potential outgoings of Xisco and Simpson won't really be missed.

Just can't understand what he's trying to achieve. Bringing on Shola for Perch - was that supposed to push Villa back a bit as he was going to be a another player up front (but every other manager and player in the league know he's a bit shit so not to worry about him) or has he suddenly realised that he's actually played out of position for the past decade and is actually the perfect defensive midfield player to bring on when you're hanging on by your fingernails. Then to bring on Anita for Sissoko - the player that should have been brought on a substitution earlier. And to top it off, Gouffran for a centre half to play as DM - surely that's the time when you bring on The Plank if you're going to play the other member of Pardew's love in.

That turn on the left in the first half was worth him being on the field by itself. Trickery from a Newcastle player that isn't Ben Arfa
