Got no interest in hearing what he has to say.

The only thing that is important is that the squad is improved, if the squd is visibly improved by the end of this window i would be more happier if we'd spent £5k then i would if we'd spent £15m becasue that way it would prove the effectiveness and value of this set up and system. And if changes were unsuccessful I'd give Ashley much more credit for committing money to it than not. Good players are good players, if they fail when they come here it has nothing to do with there transfer fee. the only picture that people should be considering is how much the squad is improved. The fact that a £10m failure would be more accpetable than a £10k failure says alot about you're way of thinking. I didnt relaise you were from the NE5 school of thinking. Expenisve players = good players Cheap players = s*** players. thats effectively what you;re saying. Presumably in your world, Man Utd and Chelsea winning everything is in no way linked to the amount of money they spend. man utd built on the nevilles,scholes,butt,giggs,beckham. the backbone of what they've achieved really. What's your point? you can improve without having to spend ridiculous amounts. So why does Fergie have three £30m centre forwards, a £30m centre half, four £20m midfielders? why's he also got darren fletcher,john o'shea,evans,park and a good crop of youngsters. did you read what i posted about "you can improve" ? which is what we need right now. if we want to challenge man utd we may need to spend big but as of right now improving in reality comes before dreaming. You can improve but it's unlikely. Generally clubs who spend nothing go nowhere. generally we've outspent arsenal in tha past Again, I'm not sure that has any relevance to what I just said. I never said money guaranteed success - not spending money guarantees failure though.

Comfortable home win imo.

If we don't go down this season, I think next it will be a nailed-on certainty as things stand.

Was just thinking that. Fucking hell that Guthrie cross late on put it on a plate for him. I make it six gilt-edged chances over the two ties. Not fucking good enough. Sign of a side lacking in confidence more than anything else. Only one man is responsible for the apparent lack of it. Owen missing half a dozen great chances is because of the side lacking in confidence? Righto.

I'd love to smash Phil Brown's smug mackem face in with a cricket bat.

I don't rate Kinnear at all but I don't mind having him in charge because I think he's on our side and there's certainly nobody higher than him at NUFC who could give two fucks what happens to the club. He's having the piss taken out of him just as much as every supporter.

Who are you on about? Whenever we cart the fringe players out they understandably look rusty but they just don't seem to give a shit, in an injury crisis that isn't exactly ideal, a team in a dog fight can't really afford to be carrying dead weight. You said 'he', I assumed you were talking about someone specifically. I also didn't see any of the fringe players behaving like that tonight.

We need the organ grinder out of the club instead of pointing fingers at the monkey.

££££££ Get a grip mate (directed at quklaani). Palacios is not the player we need tbh. He's just a slight upgrade on Jenas (if that) minus the goals. Granted he gets involved more in the game then jj does. We need a sitting dm not another box to box midfielder. I like his tenacity and he can put a tackle in, but we need someone a bit more disciplined (Appiah). Anyway, judging by whelan's audio interview on the bbc, Palacios looks like he'll join. How could he get less involved in the game than Jenas does? Him and his Forest mate are Championship players.

A lot of criticism? Why?

Absolutely spot on.

What the fuck are we paying Michael Owen for? World class my arse. You can get away with missing chances if you contribute otherwise but it's getting fucking ridiculous now. He's averaging 1.34 missed sitters per game by my count. Hurry back Obafemi Martins or we are seriously fucked.

Heads should fucking roll for what happened tonight. I'm fucking seething after watching that.

Is that site registered to peasepud by any chance?

The latter wasn't last year.

I've looked absolutely ridiculous hobbling round the office over the last two days. The combination of the blister on my big toe and the tightness of every muscle is making it a fucking nightmare to walk.

Let's hope the papers are pulling names from a hat again. Quashie would be a disgusting signing.

Aye I'll play.
