Oh aye, very much agreed on that point. Highly relieving.

Aye. But that's also because it was Arsenal. I wouldn't feel that confident if we played Stoke or Blackburn. Agreed, we looked shite at defending set pieces against Stoke tbf. Arsenal have the least aerial threat in the league.

Duff still diving.

In slo-mo it was two separate handballs!

Could learn a thing from Shola.

Linekar is great, tbh.

Arsenal to never learn to lose with class.

Arsenal 1-3 Newcastle

Agree.

I think it's 364 separate bets, basically - eleven-folds IIRC.

Trying a new odd method just for fun. About 14 fixtures. Put 364 1p bets on, with returns of £608. Will let you know how it goes (if anyone cares!).

Bought and gave Kenwyne the captain's armband at FF in joyous hope of this

Does any side have an all black home kit?

Mensah would have come back in anyway IMO.

Torres looks like he's going to cry!

His Liverpool predictions are ridiculous/funny. http://www.football365.com/mediawatch/0,17033,8749_6474198,00.html

Given picking it out of the net

Anyone happen to know where I can purchase the NUFC ceiling lamp shade displayed here? http://www.footballduvetcover.co.uk/images/newcastleduvet.jpg Cheers

I think we can win this. Their defence is fucking awful and I reckon Carroll/Shola will batter them.

Can't help but feel people are getting a little carried away with the Bale euphoria tbh. He's been fantastic, but I'd like to see him dominate the Premier League consistently before I get on my knees and hail him as the next lord and saviour of British football. He may very well do, but one step at a time.

32, 37, 32, 29 tbf.

Serious injury?

There was an article about a scientific research done, and that pen was chosen as the most perfect penalty. But I would probably agree about low being more unstoppable than high. Disagree when it comes to penalties, because all the movement of a goalkeeper comes from pushing off his legs from the centre of the goal and from that crouched position the top corner is further away than the bottom post - even if, whilst upright, their hands start closer to the top corner. Daft discussion, like, but just my two cents!

Who are the big fucking eight?! They change these terms around so frequently nowadays. I thought Man City had displaced Liverpool as one of the Big Four, but I think pundits still think of Man City as being outside of it.
