lucky goal theirs!! We don't look too bad TBH... Change edgar for Raylor as he is getting bummed in the face at the moment

Their back line doesn't exactly have bags of pace either... Possibilities if we click???

Edgar in at right back instead of Ryan Taylor. Would prefer taylor just for his superior free ball ability, would say both of them are equally shiite at defending!

anybody have the line up yet???

Attack wise; they looked quite sharp every time they got the ball in the last third whereas we looked pretty toothless, apart from set pieces where we looked a bit more hungry. Very dissapointed.

Haven't been on for a while but for what it's worth: We have been incapable of beating anyone of late so why on earth would we be able to beat Villa... Our defence and midfield look so out of sorts it is embarrassing. Apathy has taken me over and I am looking forward to crushing teams next season in the Championship. For you diehards out there, at least it will get rid of the pleb boo-boys and the silent crew, something positive to be taken???

I think that "structure" should be brought into kids football at a later stage (10+), we suffocate them by implementing rigid platforms in which they are expected to hold their positions and have tactical awareness. I am all for "having fun" and for children to express themselves, if they make mistakes they will learn more that way... P.S. I detest the sideline brigade who scream and shout at football games with youngsters playing especially the so called coaches!

that freekick when he was 2 yards offside, he really is useless. He always does that and Bolton have held their lines quite well TBH..

I would bring on duff, move lovenkrands upfront and put duff out on the right. Who would come off for duff?

Never seen so much route one football in my life. We havent won a thing with harper's long balls, what's wrong with passing it out of defence???

HTT, I agree with you that collocini was pretty average yesterday and hasn't reached the standard you would expect from a ten million defender, BUT the reason he went walkabout (mostly in the second half) was that he was under instruction to "stick to" Felliani. Surely you noticed that whenever felliani got into the last third Coloccini was next to him in a second, he did this very well TBF...

I thought Jonas had his worst game for us yesterday, didn't get one cross right all afternoon, floated past the players with relative ease but the final product was'nt there! Ameobi was poor aswell, didn't battle for anything and was no threat whatsoever. Lovenkrands wasn't much better TBF. Defence looked ok but we had a few scrappy balls that weren't cleared quick enough. Butt played better yesterday and Nolan was working hard and keeping us ticking in midfield until his brain imploded! We deffo need both duff and jonas on if we are sticking with butt and nolan in centre midfield just to get us some flair and pace into the game. MARTINS & VIDUKA, PLEASE COME BACK AND PLAY, EVEN IF YOU ARE 30% FIT YOU WILL BE BETTER THAN WHAT WE HAVE.

Was nolan sent off?

I'll take a draw, they aren't a bad side everton...very compact and fight to win games. 1-1

So there are thousands more Fu**wits out there like "wor Ash" who don't do anything resembling due dilligence... Ha hahaha Mickey, that makes me feel a little better that some of your "hard earned" (ahem!) might be lost...

I.e. Ashley will settle out of court. I will bet anyone any amount they like on this fact...

Ashley has more to lose than Keegan if he is found out to be what we think he is? All the lies and the shoddy management will be confirmed if Keegan wins... Keegan will just be confirmed as a serial quitter and we won't think much more of it. Less of a legend that's all.

Key player for them is Felliani, if he plays well we could be in for a shock... Really like that player. Key for us is if the "real Nicky butt" stands up? If he plays well the rest of the team will click...

Ah, they took my point on board about a petition.. Well that is a lot better than I expected, drumming up more support and doing it the right way. Obviously there will be a lot of Anti-Ashley rhetoric but if they want a voice they must do this type of thing properly. As for all the positive supporters (read above posts-) we have commenting on here, this is the correct way to do a supporters club. Ask for opinion and do things in a formal manner. My opinion: I like it, they are getting up off their arsses and doing something about a situation they don't like...Brilliant!!

Can't beleive that anybody takes it seriously that a kid aged 6 is the new "whatever"... ridiculous!

Can't wait to see him in action again on saturday!! Supposing that Hughton has more than three brain cells??

I drop him...... into the north sea with a breezeblock tied to his feet. ------------------Harper------------------ Saylor--Coloccini--Bassong--Enrique Raylor----Butt-----Nolan----Gutierrez --------Lovenkrands--Martins--------- Duff can be our not-so-super sub. Fair enough! Doesn't seem to bad a team and Rtaylor will give added bite to midfield.

But what do you do with Duff? He did play well the other day and he seems to give 100% and lead the other players a little...

Anybody who takes the time to set up a supporters club must realistically have the best interests of the club at heart. It certainly seems perfectly straight forward to me, that they, and many others, are fed up with the current state of affairs at SJP and they want this to be known... I also think that it is fair that they should have someone to listen to their opinions as they represent a certain "mindset" of support. I think that their final objective is not to get Ashley out (perhaps it is? perhaps it would be better...or worse?) but at least to portray their views about how the club should interact with the fans and about knowing their objectives for the club. It worries them that they know next to nothing about the real aims of Ashley &co and judging on past actions it is obvious to most that they are not in the interests of NUFC. N.B. Derek's sounbytes don't satisfy this requirement!! (poor show from local rags aswell!!) I also think that giving ultimatums and "stirring" things up will not better the current situation but in fact deteriorate it. I would be all for presenting signed petitions and serving question and answer documents for a means to find out what is really going on. A fan survey outside SJP with at least 10.000 opinions would certainly clear the air. I would also use the press to forward this and to get into the public eye rather than grouping the fans to shout and vent their frustrations in a "vgilantesque" setting.. Rant over...

Thing is, nothing surprises me any more... You would think any manager would do the blatantly obvious, I thinks the only contestable decision from my previous post would be the fact that steven taylor "hasn't done bad" playing on the right, hasn't been great either in my opinion and I also think that R taylor would be a step up. Things will get difficult when beye, barton & guthrie are also back... interesting?
