If we go with one up top at home to the bottom team in the division I may have to kill someone. Smith in for Butt and Ranger in for Nolan please. Jonas on the bench if he's able, though we really shouldn't need him. Reckon Smith will replace Guthrie and we'll keep it the same otherwise though.

it's not an either/or but wether he plays both. i don't think he will. You don't? 2-1 down today, he brings off Barton and leaves Butt on. Whose more likely to get a goal, or create on, out of those two? Add in the fact that it's Butt's first start this season. Honestly reckon the likes of Butt, Nolan, Smith and Harper have a hand in picking the team. Smith will partner Butt in CM at the weekend, nailed on. who was playing better on the night ? do you know ? tbf barton has been as poor as butt in his time here. No, obviously. But one is a 34 year old "holding midfielder" who had about 20 minutes of football under his belt all season. The other is someone who actually possesses some ability in terms of making something happen in attack, even if he has looked disinterested at times. If you need a goal then I know which one I'm leaving on the pitch.

Sounded pretty shit. Anyway, we've probably taken more points from our previous games than we've deserved to so I guess there can't be many complaints. We've had a loss coming, tbh. Need to get our act together and rebound with a win at the weekend.

He's always been very much clueless. We've been getting by on a mixture of luck and generally just having better players than the teams we face.

Butt may singlehandedly keep us in the Championship this year. He's actually a hindrance. At least Nolan has the courtesy to fucking disappear from games. Butt meanwhile thinks he's fucking Zidane, looking for the ball at all times only to boot it away aimlessly time and time again. Pathetic that he's still on while Guthrie has been taken off.

2/11

Almost an incredible pass by Messi, underhit by inches.

Hardly much of a chance like, unless he could have put his head on it which I'm not sure was the case. He could and should have headed it. Would need to see it again so, only saw the replay. But... yeah... there's only one Zlatan. *smug smile*

Good start to second half of Inter-Barca. Sneijder just wide from outside the box then Zlatan just couldn't quite get on the end of a cross.

It's clearly Nicky Butt like, logged on at half time.

Aye, more or less. I wonder what the reaction would be on here if Butt suffered a very serious injury, maybe broke his leg, and had to go off on a stretcher. Would people even pretend they were upset for the man?

"You know Zlatan, he's there for the time you meet him only."

No sense keeping him out there if he's knackered, he'll have a better chance of making an impact coming on for the last 30 minutes. If Carroll plays shite and starts the next game, then there'll be reason to be annoyed.

It's fairly old but just realised I've never seen this posted anywhere on here. Was showing it to a friend last night and its fucking classic.

Get there earlier then, shorty.

Now?? Being 6' 4 is the business, and always has been. My personal favourite is going to gigs and commenting on the footwear of the various members of the band to the vertically challenged people beside me. They're so busy straining for just a glimpse of the guys on stage that they don't realise they're having the piss taken out of them.

The expressions on their faces. What a thread.

Read the actual quotes. Nothing wrong with anything he said like, should have been a penalty.

I don't think there's anyone getting carried away tbf. We've been fairly meh so far yet somehow we've won all but one game. That says to me that if we get our act together properly (new owner, new manager, couple of loans in and one or two changes in January) we could well get automatic promotion. If we do that we'll fucking walk the league like. I don't think we'll do any of that though, so I'm a little pessimistic but still think we've a shot with the current lot and Hughton.

Fuck me. Ref was atrocious all day tbh.

We've been pretty lucky though at times lads, lets not get too carried away. Leicester outplayed us much of the game at St. James', and but for a quality save from Harper would have taken a lead. Cardiff could easily have had a penalty today as well. We've won five in a row, but two or three of them could so easily have been draws. We should get promoted I reckon, but it's gonna be a tough season and we'll not walk away with this thing by any means.

On the plus side, Smith is suspended so we need someone to take over as the holding midfielder. Hopefully Butt suffers a serious injury in the next fixture.
