We're getting by on a mixture of luck and simply having better players than everyone else in the league. We're playing absolutely shite football despite our players being head and shoulders above the majority of the opposition they face. We'd get absolutely fisted in the Premier League with this team, we'll need massive changes if we go up if we want to actually stay in the league.

Interviewer seems like a twat.

Tough crowd.

Nice goal that.

That and actually having some pace in the team. How often do we have 3 genuinely fast players in the front 6?

That's what you get for folding on a pair. I was first to act at a 10 seat table... Was the lasses fault, really, but I don't want to blame her. I'm shit at poker, tbh. Always end up outsmarting myself. Still, two sixes! Outsmarting yourself. Two sixes isn't generally anything special at a big table. You just hope to see a flop on the cheap and hit trips. Not sure whether there was a big raise pre-flop. I seriously hope so.

fuuck.. when this sort of shit happens I stop playing I'd have probably taken the overall chip lead. 300 entrants. Well done Lovenkrands, btw.

Neither here nor there, but... Playing a poker tournament online. Got dealt a pair of sixes. Was having dinner, so I folded. Flop was 6, Jack, 6. Two people ended going all in, was an absolutely massive pot in the end. I'm absolutely heartbroken here.

He'll have a great battle with Guthrie for the right wing spot. Nolan and one of Smith or Butt in CM will be what we go for assuming they're fit.

I'm picturing midds sitting at his computer nodding along as he reads the posts.

Bit over the top that like. He's a grand keeper at this level, and a passable one in the Premiership.

Piece of piss saving that free kick like It was pretty much straight down the middle at a comfortable height, had some movement on it but if a free-kick like that goes in then you're going to be livid with your keeper. If the Boro player who the rebound fell to had ever played football before, he'd have scored pretty handily.

Made a mess of a freekick straight at him, then the guy hit him in the face with a rebound. And that was his day. Decent keeper, but no business being anywhere near the England squad tbf.

Under rated? Did you see the side he built at Sunderland? Any man who can get a team that features Kevin Kilbane and Ian Harte on the left side to the World Cup, and more than hold their own while there, is a God as far as I'm concerned. Maybe it's just living in Ireland, people seem to have this impression that the guy is completely hopeless when he's just not.

Got it spot on, fair play to him. Underrated manager, glad to see it work out for him.

Vintage Butt.

Mark Bright is a retard. Yes, the official should have to go to the player, who has just run away from the incident, to book him.

We've been pretty crap in this one tbh. It's amazing how Nolan can be so absolutely shit in general play. Awful tackle from him there btw.

Nice from Colo. Harper was just flat out lucky there tbh.

Decent effort Smithy!

Blatant foul there.

GOOOMMMMMBAAAAA!!!!!

Some of your own medicine there Alan.

Not gonna happen, would love to see him back though.
