Umbro would have given us the best kits we've had since the grand-dad collar kits.

Hard as nails this one.

Hope he continues on as a coach here. But will wish him luck wherever he goes - fantastic servant to the club he loves. Canny funny old bastard too.

Aye, we have Puma's crap but at least we don't have Warrior man

Hard as Nails. Confirmed. I'm so happy he's going to be ok.

The bastard can't just tell us now? Its pretty big news

I think our issue seems to be compounded to the fact that we have a supremely thin squad to begin with and our key players are having lengthy spells in the treatment room. Krul, Colo, Steven Taylor, Cabaye, and HBA for the most part, then now add Debuchy, Haidara and Santon. I've literally named many of our top players/starting 11. Beyond ridiculous now.

x 5,000,000 to that

Hence why I've just said hire consultants man. The fuck do we know? But obviously something is wrong, can't just all be poor luck.

We need to hire top fitness coaches/consultants and sort this fucking problem this summer. This is beyond ridiculous.

Was my first thought, doesn't look like a football shirt in that pic. Strangely all I prefer these days are super basic clean kits that if plain could double as a polo (see: France, England's Umbro kits) or just look like a classic kit with the modern materials and such.

Fucking hell thats awesome. Looks like a Polo though. A Golf one. A Tiger Woods one in fact.

If by some fucking luck he's just terrible strained or bruised then this kid will go down as some legendary hard as nails bastard.

Paddy van Aanholt - but his career never really took off. Shame. I really liked him for us in the Championship.

The guy has a fucking cannon right foot man.

Why haven't you bought Obertan or Simpson then?

Never had a name, always fear the player wil be sold or hurt. So I never bother. My girlfriend almost bought me a Colo 2 shirt last season but the shop screwed up the order and never fulfilled it. Now I'm just upset as I wish I owned last season's kit.

Would be really nice to see Colo back for the run-in considering the injury issues we are dealing with.

Get the fuck in. I'm honestly less worried about any match when he's playing. He's our captain and our leader now.

Good innit? You're better than posting this kind of stuff man. Cmon.

Seriously, safety secured and end this fucking season. Shame how awesome last season was when I didn't want it to stop, now all I'm hoping for is a swift ending with safety in the PL.

Ujpest you've got literally yourself in your corner against an entire forum full of people who are really upset over this.

We went from having depth at fullback to having no fullbacks in a matter of 3 days. Unreal.

Without these punishments existing, people will continue to perform the same crimes. This is relevant in football and in life. I think the kid knows he has done wrong and so does everyone else except Whelan and it wouldn't surprise me if martinez doesn't pick him for a couple of games anyway but it still won't help us. "You think the kid knows he has done wrong" This is based on what? The reassuring pat that he gave Haidara, having been told to by his team mate? Or the complete silence after the event? Or that his manager and chairman both said it wasn't a foul. Or maybe that the Football Association haven't punished him at all. He's potentially/probably hurt our very promising player for quite a long time. He's not been punished with a red at the match, he played a part in his team defeating us, and he then gets no further punishment from the FA. How could anyone not associated with this club be OK with it? Punishing him after the fact sets the example and precedent that everyone has said on this forum and other outlets that this type of challenge is not to be tolerated. Instead, we are punished by losing a match, losing our young player for forseeable future, and our assistant manager also gets banned. We are the victims in this in every way shape and form and we've come out of this having not been given a single ounce of confidence or justice in the matter.
