I had to go to the BBC site to check if was it a parody. Incredible. It is speaks volumes that neither Merson or "Lawro" saw fit to mention that NUFC will be missing Coloccini for this game. It's only the single most salient concern for Pardew and the club at the moment. It's not that they don't know what the fuck they are doing; neither can be bothered to make an effort.

Love it. They've got a thread at RAWK called "Our Fundamental Problem"; it's ten pages long and no one is allowed to admit the obvious: they've got to start with Kenny Daglish.

Tiote hasn't exactly been the dominating presence he was last season. He doesn't inspire the same confidence he once did. We could play well with or without him. And his absence doesn't mean we're going to get run over.

Ruiz? That was a half-day transfer deadline spasm. Hardly deserves a mention.

...when we've won the only game of the day. Magedia

To hell with all this 8 points clear crap. We're level with Chelsea on points. Push for fifth!

What four languages does Cisse speak? French. Wolof, maybe? Did he learn German? Anyone know? Is the name "Demba" from any particular language?

Laughed at this in the Guardian comments

BS

GET IN

Speaking as a Ben Arfa fanboy who is gutted every game he doesn't start, I felt much more confident about us holding on to all three points after Santon came on. Thought Pardew got the substitutions right. Just don't understand what happened after we went up 1-0. Went flat, looked awful from 15 minutes on.

Not the caliber player needed to push for Europe. When Taylor went down, the club was in a position where Champions League football was not out of question. (Always a long shot, but how often are you going to get an opportunity like that?) Poor decision to go into the second half of the season without signing a decent CB. An opportunity missed. Penny-wise, pound-foolish. etc.

Get it together.

Well, at least Ryan Taylor smiled at the end.

It'll be a good day when WBA overtake them in the table.

I voted for Shola. Just can't hate the guy.

Talking about your own dealings is one thing. But why is he talking about our dealings? Oh right, to deflect from the fact that he and his merry band of retards shouldn't be setting foot anywhere near a football club. How they've been tolerated at any club they've been is beyond me. Yeah, llambias is far above drunkenly blathering on about the sale of former strikers. Never a word about the Carroll deal for example.

Liverpool suspiciously under represented at the ACON. Can't think why!

Gervinho

Got to root for Cheik.

Best two buys were the cheapest: Enrique for 6 and Bellamy for free.

Get in Parky!

So, I guess we miss the Taylors eh?
