My brother is insistent upon calling him Ben Afar

They're 13th in the league. You'd swap places if we could play Fulham's sexual football?

Nee chance. Why would they have appointed Di Matteo till the end of the season, only to hire Capello.

Lazio 2-1 Roma. Should've just got their third. Awful by Hernanes

I think today was the clearest evidence yet that we've got to this position down to the players rather than any management nous from Pardew. He's a good cheerleader though so I suppose he can take some credit for that. not only has the rest of the prem managers have sussed him out, i think our own players have aswell and thats dangerous to have in a dressing room. If he's really been sussed out, and our form is dire for the rest of the season, then we can question whether he's the right guy to take us forward. Right now we're 6th, and if we stay there, he deserves a medal, and I don't give a shit if he's just 'a good cheerleader'.

List of "most balls lost" in La Liga: http://www.superdeporte.es/deportes/futbol/primera-division/estadisticas/balonesperdidos.html Man, Pep should bench that Argie fella. Google Translate on that page is good bants. Rayo vallecano have a played called 'Married' in Spanish?

I think Pardew will eventually come up short, and is showing a fair few signs of ineptitude. But right now, he's got us to 6th in the league, an thus he deserves a whole fucking host of slack. Even if there are worrying signs.

I could be wrong, but they didn't discuss Turner's handball at all on ESPN. Clear as day and yet nothing is given. I don't think David Pleat even realised it was a handball.

Will people now stop telling him to fucking shoot?

I don't know if there's any benefit to getting rid of AVB now over just waiting till the end of the season? Do they think Di Matteo will revitalise their Champions League hunt?

Lazio 1-1 Roma after 15 mins, timeline = Roma give away pen, Stek gets sent off, scored. Roma just equalised, shot 'cleared' off the line, but was juuust over the line, great call by linesman. Been all Roma since the Lazio goal. Probably wasn't even a pen either.

Enraged he didn't take the pen.

Who has he bought, anyway? Juan Mata and? Cahill, Kevin de Bruyne...

The ref did awful in my books. No clue how to ref a derby. Giving bookings for everything. Total twat.

Nee consistency. Most of these niggles aren't free kicks but the stupid fucking ref has given everything to them. Awful game.

Seems early goal is the way forward against MONs fantastic counter attacking tedium.

Tired

Bedtime now. Trying to get a solid 8hours!

fantastic

do you think pardew could keep on doing what he's doing without what ashley put in place ? I don't know. But "Pardew: Get rid of him, I know he's doing a decent job, but I don't think he can do it once I get rid of the fat man" wasn't available

Mike Ashley: Get Rid, get rid now (Though, I probably should've gone one up from here, as I'd be rather picky over new owners) Alan Pardew: Happy, keep doing what you're doing

So you never called someone a puff when they've done something soft or can't hold their drink for example? Give over man, it's an absolute nonsense that he's been fined £6K for this. He broadcasted it to 32,000 people. I can't say any of us have done that. I don't think anyone is defending how moronic he is for putting it on twitter.

The Triads of Soccer are your friend.

Did you actually hate gays when you were 15?

He's a complete fucking moron for saying it in a public forum, and the banter is far from world class, but it's not even close to being worth a fine. He's just being made an example of, in an attempt to dissuade the more public football twitterers, one assumes. If he's being made an example of it's because he used a homophobic slur, not because he's on twitter. That word has no place in society. Never used it either then?
