Tiote v Lucas should be tasty.

7.6 and arrange a pre-season friendly

Manchester Uniteds position there is a perfect example of why sorting by "net sold" means nothing. You can sell all the players in the world for as much cash as you can get for them and if you're spending on bodies coming in, the net amount doesn't mean anything. Sorting by Purchased Gross is better, imo, for determining ambition and/or selling club status. Not that 13th is all that great, but that does factor in a relegation year where we only spent 1.5m on players (according to this site) (although interestingly on two players who've come good in Simpson and Williamson).

that planet of the apes looking motherfucker. I hate/love him.

I'd be surprised if he was. Daglish was "caught on camera", Rooney ran up to the camera to yell. Just not comparable imo. enjoyed his telling off of the sky interviewer about it too http://link.brightcove.com/services/player/bcpid761333525001?bckey=AQ~~,AAAAAAnV5Z0~,xyoxShbYDLGSh2yu4XruBQh1N8XmHpc9&bctid=908290044001

There's no corollary to a card to wave about when you want a foul and play continues. To me that's the distinction. "appealing" for a foul is more out of exasperation. asking for a card is like being greedy, since you've already got a free kick out of it. re: the scholes thing - dressing up the situation in emotional language and action phrases doesn't mean anything. your post could have read "it was .. a ... tackle. I personally think ... players should ... react by asking for the ultimate penalty to be paid." And it's wrong.

Who sided with Pissi?

http://i55.tinypic.com/ic4xlv.jpg slow mo wink, stolen from another forum.

problem is he trolls his side too. mancini screaming for him to kill time, he hits a shot halfway in their half that goes 30 yards over the goal. completely mental.

Well done De Jong.

Is there not the distinct possibility Bramble is better than you give him credit for but not world class? Shades of grey man.

how in the name of the Almighty's ballsack are we on 69 yellows already jesus christ, fuck you james perch* * - am aware Tiote is on more but they're bullshit

Ha ha! http://i.imgur.com/BwG3T.gif

Needed his brain . he finds his way into space and makes himself available when we play teams that press high like villa did. No one else seemed to want to or figure out how.

Everyone and everything sucked today.

Good for them. We were shit.

GET INNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!! Taylor off

He's got the heart of a lion though! Best RB in the team as well ahahahahahahahaha

:colo: :colo:

Colo as DM, finally.

In their final 6 games Sunderland will play against just one team in the top half and against 4 teams in the bottom 6 After today, half of our remaining fixtures are against top six teams. * I think we're safe, but I'd say we've got the harder road to travel when it comes to putting further daylight between ourselves and the bottom. * - "remaining games" observations based off legally published list of already occurred fixtures. Any resemblance to an actual fixture list is entirely coincidental. You could look at Sunderlands situation completely differently though. They're playing absolute dogshit, and they have to face 6 sides who are all fighting for their lives. I thought about that angle, but regardless of any teams form I'm guessing they'd still rather have 3 games against desperate west brom, wigan and wolves sides than manu, chelsea and liverpool.

as an expert on body language I can tell that this means he's staying

5-1 to us.

can tell it's going to be a shit day when Phil Neville is scoring on you.
