It's class like. We signed him, everyone agreed it was pretty much a cert that he'd be a class and then he comes in and is immediately fucking class. Looks to be the best ball playing central midfielder we've had in a very long time, pleasure to watch so far.

To the tune of 'Baa Baa Black Sheep'... Ba Ba Demba Ba Y u no score goals!!

at the last page of this thread, for a host of different reasons.

agree with that, i like the players we have - all seem to want to play for the team and pulling in the right direction, good s***! And the players we don't like are almost out the door god, can you imagine when smith fucking leaves this summer? sweet jesus that'll be good Said it before, the day Smith officially leaves I'm making a party thread where we get hammered and celebrate him being finally gone.

Always nice to wake up to a win, sounds like it was class.

Aye, will be a tough decision for Pardew nominating his "official long range shooter guy" on the teamsheet each week. Guess he'll have to see how they look in training!

just don't believe that anymore, some variation of the club being cheap and available then looking to improve on his money makes more sense to me the "good fun" bit stinks of bullshit to me, he's never ran the club that way since he bought it...alls he did was drink beer in the stands a few times and wear a Smith shirt how was Japan by the way? Mint. It's like Korea only with some sort of thought put into it's design and the occasional clean-up. Sorry Oldtype.

Really think he decided to buy us on a bit of a whim because he thought it'd be good fun owning a football club. I'll bet he regretted it pretty quickly.

Reckon they'll be painting advertising onto the grass on the field of play within ten years. Can just imagine a massive sports direct logo in the centre circle.

Fair play to the cunt.

That's rotten.

Think there'll be a national holiday to mark Ji's goal? They'll at least rename Chuseok in his honour I'm sure.

Go to bed man.

Cabaye looks like he'll be a great player for us, but I'm still more excited about Ben Arfa. Both of them paying together is the most exciting thing of all though Makes a change not to be pinning all of our hopes/optimism on the fitness of one foreign gem Isn't that pretty much what we're doing though? Love what I've seen from Cabaye so far, but if he's got two of Ba, Shola, Best and Lovenkrands starting up top ahead of him he's not going to do much damage tbh. Cabaye AND Ben Arfa That's my point though, without some sort of quality in front of him I fear Cabaye won't be as effective as he could be.

We're due a loss like. Can't believe we've gotten 7 points from how we've played so far.

Gusta. He'll shape our season, one way or another.

All my focus is on the World Cup in 2014 though. Really gonna try and go to Brazil for it... should still be traveling at that point so gonna have to make it happen. Will be immense regardless, but Ireland actually being there would be the icing on the cake.

Jesus we dodged a bullet there. Don't see us getting through though, we're well organized and committed but there's no real threat in our team. Keane and Duff are past it, McGeady is and always has been rubbish (at least at international level, people tell me he actually plays well sometimes for his club) and our central midfield is absolutely shocking... Long and Doyle as a partnership has some promise for the future but I don't know where any sort of service is going to come from.

Ward couldn't cross a fucking road.

Still waiting for him to actually do something in an Ireland shirt.

We're getting raped like. Our central midfield is just fucking non-existant.

Better not want a raise, the greedy cunt.

It's still completely inexplicable to me why the felt that it was a good idea to come out with the whole "it'll be reinvested" shit. Did they just assume we'd forget in six months time? For a lot of fans it was the only thing that justified his sale. It also bought them 6 months breathing space. What's the difference between people being pissed off then and a lot more people being pissed off now? It's not as if they needed to lie to avert mass riots or anything. Time is a great healer. People have had time to accept that Carroll is gone now, all they wanted was to buy some time. We still had the hope we'd spend the money when it came time to renew season tickets as well.

Jon taking time out from his daily threesome with Best and Ba to criticize us for not buying a new striker I see? Treacherous harlot.
