Preston boss.

All the "best" players that have left thus far wanted to leave. Why can't people realise that? Clubs who want to go places don't sell their best players whether they want to go or not. They keep them, go forwards and make them want to stay. Can't see Gareth Barry braying at the Villa door again this summer.

Looks promising in those highlights, that first touch for his second goal is lush. Involved in four of the five goals too. Had a little chuckle at his front post run for Nile's goal - exactly what Kinnear was moaning about but I'd love to know when Shola last made a run to the near post like that.

.com's report sounds promising. Really hope he gets his chance soon. At Premiership level, it's about confidence more than anything half the time - look at the difference in Jo on Saturday after that lovely opener.

Classic NUFC that'll be, nearly gets a hat trick and crocks himself.

Shit.

Man Utd's clean sheet record is nothing short of astonishing.

Spurs, Blackburn and probably Pompey.

Reminds me of when .com described Oba's home debut as something like "one of the most woeful performances ever to grace the number nine shirt".

That's absolutely ridiculous.

When Beckham did that it was the right thing to do. Still can't believe the stupid fuss made over that.

Fair enough; Ameobi to bundle in from being 10 yards offside? I wish I could laugh about that incident I sit next to an Everton fan at work, love winding him up about that.

I'd snap up Crouch if they go down.

Windass, man of the match, some class saves.

They let him listen to the match with a weak heart and high blood pressure? Fucking hell, those last twenty minutes nearly killed me off, never mind him. Glad he's ok and glad the lads did the business for him.

So was Boro's. Our form has been shit but those two are in freefall. They both still have the new manager card to play though. It really does feel like a tactical battle at the bottom at the moment - when to sack the boss to get the best boost?

More wank keeping btw. Crisp packet hands. [/Dave]

Yay!

What a strike Kuyt. EDIT: but abysmal goalkeeping again.

SSN: LA Galaxy reject £6.7m bid from AC Milan for Beckham.

he makes up for it with his 'sweeper keeper' superpowers Still tickles me that.

Reina 'better than Given' my arse.

For Christ's sake...

I love the Fernando Torres song btw. Perfect football song.

Twat Aye I spotted that as well.
