Really? Cisse is just as useless, at least Shola has a good record in the derby and might be up for it more.

How would he know? Exactly. Pardew has fuck all say in transfers, you may as well ask one of us if the money is going to be spent.

And rightly so, but because we're 8th the media and pundits will be slating the fans for any negativity.

Pardew is horrific in these derbies, and even worse against Poyet. 0-2 to the mackems.

Is HBA definitely out? He was walking fine when he came off.

That will surely be rescinded?

Shola's wrecked, he has to come off.

Fucking hell.

Shola coming on. Honestly, why fucking bother?

20 goal attempts. 3 on target ffs.

It's like the footballing Gods are trolling us with these free kicks tonight man. Can't help but think of Yohan every time we get one.

Ridiculous yellow card that.

Last time we won here Beardsley and Andy Cole got the goals ffs.

Shola coming on for HBA.

We need to get the lead asap. Dominating like this and not winning will hurt like hell if Norwich manage to nick something.

Ben Arfa's passing tonight.

I'm not Sammys biggest fan but he's doing well so far.

Can you use the January wild card after January? I think I read somewhere that it has to be used this month?

Pretty good deal really. If he does well we get him in permanently. Knowing our luck he'll be class here and he'll go elseware in the summer.

0-2. Ben Arfa getting both goals and being sold first thing tomorrow morning.

I can't blame Pardew for Cabaye leaving, if anything it showed how little power he has as manager here. The simple fact is Ashley and his pet cunt Kinnear run the show here and Pardew is just their yes man to have in the dug out. It'll be time enough to go mad at Pardew either tonight or on Saturday I'm sure.

Maybe they won't agree personal terms?

Whatever people do, wait until about 14:40 before deciding.

Is it another toast and a pint kinda deal?

Spurs sell their best players and spend every penny they get from the sale to try and bring the club closer to Champions League football. That's the difference. I agree with that totally. But it's not the point here. Most PL clubs are vulnerable especially if a player wants to leave as Cabaye obviously does. Yeah I agree, but it's not necessarily a negative thing. It depends on the mindset the selling club has. I get the impression we'd rather hold on to the cash and see how we get on (because we're safe), and if we struggle then buy in the summer. Probably buy cheaply too, hoping to get someone we can sell in a couple of years similar to Cabaye. It's desperate and it's a cowardly way to run a football club. They should take losing Cabaye on the chin and go out and replace him properly. They should be working on that right now.
