Fabricio Coloccini signed from Deportivo La Coruña on 5 year deal
BottledDog replied to Cronky's topic in Football
Hope so, love the confidence he is playing with at the moment. -
Never sure about him on the right, but did well today.
-
Did the vast majority right again today imho. Love the guy.
-
Perfect backup defender you know you can relly on. Was worried about his pace, but he put that fear to bed, was excellent today.
-
Fantastic signing. Well done to everyone involved.
-
Played well today, as did the vast majority.
-
What, the referee? I quite agree. No, Mike Williamson. The same Mike Williamson who has spent the majority of his career in League Two. No, Mike Williamson has stepped up remarkably well. Hope the same Mike Williamson spends the majority of his career with us in the prem.

Some people seem hard wired to whinge. The thing is I don't know what standard people are expecting of him, the start of this thread is embarrassing in the amount of people not recognising the positive effect Hughtons hard work had had and calling out for him to be replaced by someone more experienced. But the thing is those names that were bandied about as absolute ideals like O'Neil or Moyes have been far more appropriately pilloried for there tactics, fovouritism, and subs this season. Every manager get's the criticism, experience won't change the fact that things will not always be done exactly how we want them to, but I cant help feeling increadibly thankful that we now have a manager who's good points far, far outweigh anything else at the moment. Chris Hughton and his staff have taken us on an incredible journey over the last year or so. I have no interest in getting irked and keep picking away at details like feeling that Smith should have been moved to right back rather than Tiote (not a view I share btw). We are a newly promoted side who have made exceptional strides bringing talented players in on a budget, have a team more content as a group than I have seen for almost a decade if not more, and are playing the type of football that makes you exited to go to games again. Long may it continue.

Lucky to not have thrown it away, very. We've just beaten Chelsea, man. Be happy with it! I am, just worried that's all. I like him, I'm all for him, just his subs are starting to irk especially when 99% of the collective are thinking the same thing (about changing it, or not in his case) and he's not doing it. Your constant fretting is starting to irk too. We've done some great things since his appointment and since promotion, get behind and support the bloke ffs. So i'm not supporting him? Though i've just said I'm all for him and I like him; you even quoted it. Well done for being special btw. "Poor again tonight." Cracking support there like. I've already suggested I should have been more specific in that I meant subs, but well done for not being able to read. And again well done in the thickness stakes for quoting a post i'm talking about these subs and those subs only. So, having a go at his choice of subs ad infinitum isn't having a go at him now?

Chelsea 3 - 4 Newcastle United - 22/09/10 - post match reaction from page 45

Nice one. -
It makes me laugh. We’ve had years of people pontificating about how the club couldn’t keep on borrowing money. Yet that’s exactly what the club has been doing since Mr Ashley took over (the debt has now near enough doubled) and for some strange reason they’ve all gone very quiet on the subject. We'd be a bit fucked if we didn't. At least this time we have an owner who apparently has funds to put his own money in interest free rather than be beholden solely to the banks.
-
Would you and LLL be in favour of changing the name of the club to Mr Porky’s Pork Scratchings FC if it brought in a few quid? Depends if we also got free Mr Porky's Pork Scratchings FC branded Pork Scratchings from Mr Porky?
-
Llambias and Hughton presumably.
-
I'd probably just trust Hughton, the staff, and Ben Arfa himself on where might be best for him. Seems to be working.
-
It is a given he wanted Bassong & Beye to stay. Also The Lions wages would have been a lot higher than the puppets. Nice to see you still taking cheap shots at Hughton.
-
Only happy when it rains? /christ, sorry if that gets stuck in anyones head, shit song. Shit band.
-
He looks |<------------------------------------THIS------------------------------------------->| happy.
-
That's a but nuts. Wonder why, season loan somewhere?
-
Cheeky sod! He's just big boned.

If we don't though? WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE'RE DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMED! -
We know he was after a striker, he said it himself, and all those quotes tell me is that if the team do well then he won't need to buy anyone - Seems to be more of a threat/incentive to the current crop to me.

That's not how I saw it at all, thought he played alright and could have scored at least twice.
