Also £5m is small change to Ashley. Bit like me having £2000 spare and quibbling over a fiver.

7 games, NO wins, NO hope Keegan on the brink http://www.newsoftheworld.co.uk/0203_keegan.shtml

Sorry like.

Kevin Keegan? What did Keegan do wrong like? Picked Barton, Smith and Duff. Who should have played instead of Barton? (Butt was the weaker of the two today for a start) He wasn't like. I'm no fan of Nicky Butt but apart from those two admittedly super passes for Owen (Butt put one in too), Barton was diabolical. Looks totally incapable of keeping possession whenever he gets it. Butt was dreadful man, particularly in the first half. Never with 5 yards of the man with the ball, unless it was one of our players in our half. Said it earlier on, he's playing the "anonymous Jenas" role in our midfield. Doesn't cut anything out Oh I agree he's absolute shit, but so is Barton. Have you seen that X-Files where the Navajo Indians bring Mulder back from the dead? I'm going to go round Emre's with that DVD and see what I can do.

Not by mine and I was there. At least Owen missed a few chances. Smith's not even had a chance yet this entire season where I've thought "he should have scored there." That's how bad he is. Should have scored that header iyam. Touché.

Hope its not a financial problem of yours that going to be helped with a pay out from the bookies Don't worry, my betting history is not a successful one. I put £35 on Boro to win the UEFA Cup just so they wouldn't. If we get beat off Brum, Fulham or Reading, I'll quite happily whack my life savings on us to stop the rot.

I've just put a tenner on us to go down. Problem solved lads.

It was close but I agree, I would have even if he'd scored from his own half.

Just been looking at the fixtures of the clubs around us. I think we'll have to make a concerted effort to be that shite to go down. I know, I know.

Love how 2 on 1 it's Enrique's fault. Bloody foreigners.

In five games time, we should really be above them. I know, I know.

f*** off nicking my team. f*** off pointing out my cock up. Yeah....well....I think Damien Duff is cool. Right, outside now!

f*** off nicking my team. Fuck off pointing out my cock up.

At least Boro are only a point above us. 5 of their next 6 are Villa, Arsenal, Chelsea, Man Utd and Spurs too. Pity the other one is Derby like.

Fuck off nicking my team.

Harper, Beye, Capaca, Faye, Enrique, Milner, Geremi, Emre, N'Zogbia, Martins, Viduka.

He can't do anything when a striker is breaking through into that much space and all Bentley has to do is pick his spot with 60 yard to aim for.

Good. Some daft fucker might still buy the useless arsehole.

Surprised at the heavy voting for Harper over Given. I voted for Harper though.

This is pretty funny, but not half as funny as the defence the bloke got in this thread. i don't have a problem if people stick up for our players, even if i don't rate them, but it IS funny when they're so obviously shite. it's like the people who thought Ramage was mint when he first broke through, even tho he was struggling badly from game one. If I was really into "I told you so" I bet it would be a laugh to see who poured scorn on the people who knew Alan Smith was absolute wank when we signed him.

I was a critic of Shearer when he was getting on, but comparing him to Smith...
