I know what you mean, but I think we're due someone outside Chelsea, Man United and perhaps even Arsenal winning it Fancy a wager? No chance in hell of that happening for at least another 3 or 4 years, and that's being wildly optimistic.

Thought you'd been to a win? Good to have you on board.

Some fucking save from Gordon.

The curse has been removed from Dave Just me and Bluf now.

0-0 would suit me just fine here, I'd actually rather the Mackems win than Man U. I've some friends who I owe years of slagging.

No way we'd have scored had I been there. Or created any of those chances for that matter. Was much more confident that the goal would come eventually today than in previous seasons, the team mentality seems to already be much stronger. Ironically enough, I gave up with about 5 minutes to go and thought we weren't going to do it.

He USED TO, yes. I am sure at 28 years old its not completely out of the question that he could still do a job there. Agreed, but I think he's changed his game a lot since then and would be pretty much wasted there now. The fact that we played Smith there today with Geremi in the middle speaks volumes.

He USED TO, yes.

Reckon he'll sell him at the first opportunity myself, or will try and tamper with the formation to try and accomodate him somehow in the meantime. If he intends persisting with 4-4-2, we better pray N'Zogbia and Milner stay fit.

Embarrasing himself. Actually feel sorry for some of their true, long-term fans who will be able to see how important Allardyce was to them and must be furious at all this.

Nani has the type of face you'd just love to punch, really can't stand to look at close shots of him. Quality prospect though.

Yes, but I'd be very shocked if that's our long term plan. We've got Milner, N'Zogbia and Duff if he ever returns, those are our only wingers. Meanwhile we've Butt, Geremi, Smith, Emre and Barton who are CM's. Pie is likely just trying to wind you up tbh.

Man U haven't created a single thing, really shit game so far.

You really need to get over it Although tbf it sounds like once again he was the worst player on the pitch by miles. To be fair, I've concerns about how much good Milner is ever going to be for us. If we're going with this 4-3-3 for the long haul, Milner in either wide role will be detrimental to the team. If we're hoping to play 4-4-2 he'll be good to have, but judging by the Winger-CM ratio in our squad, I'd bet we'll be at 4-3-3 more often than not. Shame, as I like Milner. Just not sure he'll fit into what we want to do, out wide anyway.

What did he say??

Is he lonely ? 8 pts from a possible 12 and we're in 5th atm? Good start to the season, can't wait till Sam gets the squad playing to their potential. Can't watch the game till the replay is on Setanta NA. Bummer, that I already know the result. Nah, he's the life of the party tbh, typical British eccentric type.

Thank fuck for that. Really important to win today, very happy with 8 points from our first 4 games. Does highlight how much we need to get either Emre or Barton fit and playing well very soon, as home games like this are going to be a struggle when teams sit back and invite us on to them. Delighted though, especially as one of my best mates is a Wigan fan.

It is pretty funny though. Suppose. It's a pretend ban tho isn't it? Could be, how would I know?

You know - everyone knows - that you aren't ITK, and that you are only saying he'll be here becayse he "has a contract". As if thats ever stopped a manager being sacked. Not that at all. I just don't reckon he'll get sacked. Or resign. FS has seen through Roeder. He's gone man. This is the best bit. How do you figure?

It is pretty funny though. Suppose.

If this is anything more than taking the piss out of Yorkie for an hour or two then it's pretty pathetic like. And even then it's not much better.

Diarra to Arsenal came from nowhere a bit, pity as I wouldn't have minded us making a move for him. Good signing for them though.

Was never really too worried, I reckon Sam and Mort just decided to take the piss out of us and delayed announcing them until now.

What a disgraceful attitude etc. As long as he doesn't get badly hurt, wouldn't wish that on anyone, no matter what they've done. Wrong thread. Sorry, won't happen again.

What a true abomination of a thread, must have the least amount of intelligent thoughts per words of any thread ever, anywhere.
