What a fucking abortion of a football match already

Dat defending

I've always maintained that there's a decent amount of randomness in football when you look at crap teams starting the year well and good teams starting badly. Over a long period of time they usually perform as expected. I reckon that's also why average British managers still stay employed as they're good enough to play averagely but also lucky enough to get a spell of decent results/runs enough times that the bad ones are overlooked (see: Pardew).

They're thick as custard?

Carver going to evaporate soon

Isn't the fair play place based on the league's discipline not the team's? Therefore West Ham wouldn't give a shit if they get 3 sent off so long as they finish in the extra spot?

Bein Sports coverage has done away with the thin veneer of professionalism and is actually interviewing Zola while playing golf in Qatar

Ryan "Beaten up Puppy" Taylor Looks like they've cropped out him holding today's paper.

Where has this attitude developed from? It seems like we have this complete new breed of plastic, delusional fan. Before the Ashley reign (and even in the first season and a half- see Allardyce protests, KK resignation etc.) this type of attitude never existed- in fact it was very much the opposite. But now the support we have created somehow is just the most repulsive I have ever seen. Complete idiots who lap up every word of propaganda that the club spins, people who have an absolutely horrendous understanding of football (see their backing of Pardew)....it's like we have fully grown men who are supporting this club with the attitude of a (football) love-sick child; they can't and won't say a bad word about the club, no matter how disgraceful the clubs actions are. Along with the way the club is run, this new generation of supporters have equally forced me to become totally disillusioned with Newcastle United. They're a disgrace to the traditions of NUFC. I hate to use the phrase as it's dripping with irony but could they not be the first generation of glory hunters? A group of people who had the team been in the second division wouldn't have bothered but almost a lifetime of being in the premier league attracts people who just see it as a day out on the piss? edit: either that or they're just genuinely thick as shite

His skill set aside, the fact that the manager coming in for the last three games would be the one choosing whether or not they were going to be getting a paycheck come August would be more than enough motivation for the players to actually string a fucking pass together.

Fuck me, just remembered Tiote is still ours.

Don't worry he will be soon. 0.47 by the end of the season

It's spot on compared to Wenger's:

3 on the bounce and counting!

I'm not sure that is worse than having seen the last 4(?) years seemingly playing the EXACT SAME free kick routine to no success, confirmed in black and white that it's actually a genuine plan by the coaches and not a hilarious coincidence.

Has Williamson ever scored from a set piece with his head?

Wise surprisingly saying Carver needs to have a look at himself before criticising the players. Ended with a dig at the fans to even it out though.

When did Everton get so dirty?

Burnley all but down if they lose today?
