Anyone ever thought we should be scouting these football league players and be signing them as SQUAD players to come in and compete for starting roles in the team? Ie: Surely we could find about 4 off that list who have more mobility than Butt and can play some simple 1-2 passing better than some of our lot? I always thought we could have built a strong squad with DEPTH by bringing in some of these on the cheap and have them compete and put pressure on some of our "international" talent.

Like watching paint dry

if this doesn't show you that AS and ID are in control then I don't know what will - I like it. Situation happened, Shearer mentioned it briefly in the press, they tried to bait him and get him to maybe causea rift. Shearer stook to his guns, the matter was dealt with. And we move forward.

Bassong should be in young players if you ask me.

Horrible list

I f'ng hate Stoke. That club annoys me. Their long throws. Beattie crying with the blood in his face when it looked clear to me Bassong did F all. Fuller is a fat lard-arse. They were climbing on backs all match for headers.

he did do both, saw it on the tele. Shearer even made a comment about it, which made me laugh. It was a joke, those throw-ins, they make me sick. Thats what football has come to? Throw-ins that take 25 seconds? I blame it all on Big Sam, even if he wasn't the originator of these tactics that totally kill the sport.

Nolan looks as slow as an elephant, and his feet get stuck under the ball all the time. He wasn;'t this slow at Bolton was he?

We are in need of a good morale building massacre of Spurs, ala last year. Came from behind, and just took the game to those f'ers.

agreed.

Frustrated as It seems we probably were going for the 4-3-3 allowing Owen in the hole.

Man do I miss Joey Barton. Guthrie - Barton CM would be about a million times better than what we have, and some will even say those 2 are woeful.

Carroll will start next match, imo. He wouldn't have let Faye get that ball. Gosh I hate Faye, esp his celebrations.

sadly true. and i agree.

He has no service. We all talk about lack of quality balls being played in. There is your problem. Oba and Owen have 1 or 2 half chances a match, Owen had 2-3. 1 was dissallowed, the other was hit from his wank left foot.

I've never seen a squad do it as much as us. And that includes lower league clubs. Any bit of pressure and they turn it back to the keeper or back down to the CBs. It kills me everytime.

God he oozes class.

Never was going to be an easy one. Colo must sit rest of season, he's cost us too many points this season.

Colo needs to be sitting the rest of the season.

He sounds better now. Maybe he was just like us - dillusioned with the regime.

Warren Barton never seems to show any loyalty when hes on FSC here in the states. Or maybe I'm wrong?

What photo that would be... Sir Bobby, KK, Shearer.

All a tactic to keep pressure off Shearer imo.

HTT - your overall assesments on Dowie? Interesting what you are saying about the modern game etc, didn't know that about Dowie. Also whats your take on the entire situation? Respect your opinion, would like to hear your thoughts/initial reaction.

Go on.
