Kanji

Glad we're a fucking springboard.

Just keep thinking how empty and soul less this entire club is now. I picture empty hallways at SJP and it's just not the club we all know anymore. The last week of the window sealed it.

Shame b/c the way De Jong plays he seemed actually a good partner for Cisse. Disgusting once again by those who continue to make a mockery of our once proud club.

People officially turned on him after a day everybody was shit? Same guy who had some gut busting performances that have led to some key assists/goals that have gotten us crucial points?

If Ashley came out and said "We've decided to use the Cabaye money to pay Alan's compensation" I'd be throughly happy with that usage.

FKN hope so mate!

One of things I read and feel sick to my stomach about. Something completely wrong about 1 single man being able to destroy a club that's existed for many lifetimes....

Agreed, and I was vehemently against FS. I have to think FS is constantly trying to figure a way back into the club via another group where he stays behind. A FFS return would be some WWE epic man. Vince McMahon style. He'd be lapping up the savior card and go and sign Toni Kroos and Marco Reus or something

People still spouting about the doing the Leeds under Shepherd only need to look at the source of that rumor and should probably end that rumor or at least reconsider their position. I'd take Freddie Shepherd over this fucking prick any day of the fucking week. I'd rejoice man. Shepherd's ego and bad decisions were shocking, but in no way was he as cretinous as Mike Ashley and his cronies.

I've actually no problem with Cheik, I appreciate his sentiments to be honest. For some fucking reason.

I actually feel for the players who thrive on certain systems who've had careers derailed by the fraud that is Alan Pardew.

You need an avatar btw, maybe your sexy face so we can get over Cabaye leaving Cheers man, Im starting to get really pissed off after yesterday. Brown/Indian/American Cabaye, like.

I just can't understand his jogging back when he's a defender...i just can't understand how he didn't fucking turn his head to see Adam Johnson behind him...and I can't FORGIVE him half ass'ng that goal line clearance/challenge on Johnson. Example of heart/Commitment?: MYM chasing a seemingly MORE lost cause at Spurs and somehow fighting his way into that challenge and somehow getting to the ball first to clear it safely out. I'm tired of this "he's young and will learn" crap with Santon. That 2nd goal effort on his part was shocking and a 100% droppable offense imo.

If all the press reports are believed about Rubin Kazan?

Fucking shame we are flogging Cisse man.

I was impressed with his showing for ball and running about the channels to get the ball. He'll get up to speed with a week or so of training and show his promise. An issue with many of our supporters is constant slagging off of new players b/c they didn't light it up on their debut. Had this lad been signed at the beginning of the window when all of us were in better spirits and we didn't sell Cabaye some of the quick 1-2s or lay offs would have been applauded and people would have been very excited. Fucking shame that the club signs a player the week they sell Cabaye, get no replacement, go down 2-0 to Sunderland and bring him on and expect him to save us. Leave it to our joke of a hierarchy to never set our players up for success.

Yep - Adidas + New Logo as well.

FWIW the only people really truly saying we'd have done a Leeds or Portsmouth under Freddie Shepherd was Mike Ashley, Chris Mort, and Derek Llambias and they peddled all of that s*** into the media who gladly lapped it up like starved dogs. So, in retrospect - the current owner who couldn't do due diligence and has lied and deceived us over and over telling us that should probably be taken with a grain of salt. IMO.

Krul would destroy him man. His inability to bust a gut when he's running back to our goal on defense is fucking shocking.

So he should sack him....right, MATE

I really don't know why today is a day to compare them. HBA had a tough match and his shit manager didn't set him up to play to his strengths. The fuck does Robert or Solano have to do about today?

I don't understand the point of all this when you openly talk 8-10 being the aim. I tend to surround myself with like minded positive and ambitious people, good people - this club led by Ashley and Pardew is the direct opposite of every principle I try to live by and I'm really just plain sick and tired of this.

HBA may be the more talented but no way has he ever been more effective or produced like Robert and Solano. That may be a product of injury and Pardew though.

Was prontonise the same day we lost the last derby?

HBA-LDJ-Remy There is no other way to play a front 3. If there is worry about HBA/Debuchy getting exposed then fucking play Sissoko or Anita in a midfield role to cover for these 2 going forward. If there is concern over Remy/Santon getting forward on left, then fucking play a midfielder in a role to cover for them as well. Its fucking simple stupid tactics that the idiot in charge doesn't see. Just play 9 outfield defensive minded players and have 1 striker or 1 man capable of magic.
