So Wenger thinks racism against Adebayor is fine but doesn't like that?

Also, if we're just talking Prem strikers then Shola has to be up there

Aye his attitude is terrible under the circumstances, could establish himself as the first choice striker and be a bit of a hero for firing us back into the premiership giving he's a local lad and all that. Just doesn't seem like he's giving it his all and he's constantly moaning about something. Not even going to mention his cowardly attack on Nzogbia last season. Do we know it was cowardly? I remembe there was bother but can't remember the full details of it. Either way N'Zogbia deserved a good kicking anyway. After his performance against Blackburn he certainly did, the cheese eating surrender monkey.

I don't think they did. They got bigger gates when their local rivals were there, yes. And they have quite a few derbies to our one. I'd be interested to see what their averages in the last few years since their glory days. I'm only going on the games I went to at Uni but I don't think it dipped below 20k at any of those 8 or 9 games over the 4 seasons prior to last 08/09. Could have been that I was at the dirt cheap games though

Albert Luque was worse for us that Stephanie. Kevin Davies at blackburn was a shocker. Bianchi didn't last long at City, what happened to Nery Castillo there? And Bojinov? Rasiak had an interesting spell at Spurs. There's a real multitude of turd strikers out there when you get thinking.

TBF, Forest have got decent enough attendances over the past few years. They were getting 20k+ throughout league 2 I think. Mental the way they got more for this game than they did for their Derby though.

Yeah, did well in Europe mind.

BTW they tested the Fink Tank against the bookies in its first season. Whenever there was a significant difference of opinions (i.e. bookies offered better odds than they should have done according to the model) they stuck x amount of money on where x was dependent on how big the difference of opinion was and they made a lot of money out of it.

Then why bloody go?!?!? BAD OMEN Because it was only the Blackburn defeat last season and the Dundee draw in the Summer - it's not a pattern until we lose on Tuesday Guess who I'm blaming if we lose. Nicky Butt?

Well I assume the costs for making and supplying the shirt will be taken from that cost, and the profits go to SBR foundation. You can't expect them to make a loss. 15% of the costs go to the charity, which means £42.50 goes to the club.

Such a prick that bloke, I know I'm in for a shit day when it's that cunt doing the papers on SSN before I leave.

You may be right, but when he has two opposition and his team-mate is free 10 yards away he shouldn't try to f***ing beat two men, he looks like he has frigging tunnel vision, has no awareness that his team-mates are free despite them and 4000 mental Geordies shouting it out to him. Gutierrez might be frustrating but we weren't exactly doing well before he came on either. In fact we were getting pissed on. I never said we weren't getting pissed on, I expressed an opinion about Guttierez based on what I saw of him yesterday. Based on what I saw yesterday I'd rather see Jonas starting left wing ahead of Lovenkrands every day of the week. Rather remarkably I made the comment that Lovenkrands should never be played on the wing when we signed him the first time and you won't be hearing me arguing for him to be played on the wing at any point in the future either. So basically Jonas is the best option like i said. We agree. If he gains some awareness instead of running around with blinkers on it will improve his game, yes. So until he gains some awareness he shouldn't start? Who said he shouldn't start? Fuck me, I hate arguments like this. "So you think that? Bloody hell." "Tell me where I said that" "You said this it amounts to the same thing" etc. repeat ad nauseum.

For all it was a poor performance, we'd still have won had that goal not been ruled out.

Win.

Pompous middle class pr*cks - what else do you expect ? The same arrogant twaddle appears almost weekly in the Grauniad and others. Then you have the cesspit moron version of the above, from the Mirror (that some of our more dopey and gullible contributors on here grin gormlessly like a disney cartoon hick from the 1930's era and say "It's...duh...tongue in cheek...huh, huh, huh...") We'll get more and more - and it'll get worse if it looks like we may actually go up. Fuck me sideways. I quite like the Fink Tank, obviously it's miles from exact but it's really interesting to look at applied modelling in this context and seeing how the model changes and improves.

Same shit performance we've put in for most games this season but we didn't get away with it. Bound to happen sooner or later. Good day out though.

How do you propose persuading the nation to do this?

SSN says both are out. As is Torres, and Berbatov's doubtful cos his wife had a kid or something. I've got rid of Gerrard but only benched Rooney for the week rather than take the 4 point hit. He's so important to my team I'll let him sit this week out and I think he'll respond well to that sort of man management.

Probably just fishing but that is utterly ridiculous. Given that Ashley's got every decision since January '08 wrong I'd be surprised if him being replaced wasn't a very, very good thing.

Are Gerrard and Rooney actually out? Need to sort out my fantasy team.

Rounded up.

Think it was close to a million. Might as well just round up. Gui'v'ar'c''h scored in his second, much better player.

Got our money back for him too. How many games was it Forlan went before he scored?

I think your average football fan would struggle to hit the notes in twoooooo there. I still love the Shola / Lola Kinks song. Utterly brilliant. The first line is pure genius right there.

I've got a feeling he missed a pen for his hattrick too, or poss let someone else take it.
