Only just read that BBC article, seriously Demba's agent needs to be destroyed.

Will be great to see Hughton back at St. James'. Pity I can't be there to witness his return. But there's no room for sentiment in football, need a good win here.

so thats either the tribune de face or the virage nord if you want to live a little. IIRC, the Virage Nord is where the Bordeaux Ultras sit so I may avoid that area. EDIT: just had a look, was wrong about that^, Virage Sud is where they sit. If they're anything like our "Ultras" you'd be as safe as houses. The Bordeaux Ultras are harmless really.

Well then, what a game that was! Such an exciting second half. The less said about the first half the better tbh - there's only one word to describe it: shite. The second half was a massive improvement on the first and was arguably the best half of football I've seen us play so far this season. Really hope we can build on that and properly kick start our season. Everton should have won really but fuck them, it was a great result for us IMO and needless to say I'm happy atm! We showed some great spirit in the second half and that was really heartening to see.

Competent enough backup, no more and no less.

'Pass' You know what I mean

Btw would have been mint if his pass to Demba resulted in a goal.

Brilliant cameo from Shola. Cult hero tbh. Plus his smile

He didn't do too badly imo. He'll be alright for the short term.

Certainly looked like him.

Uh oh, he's taking over the retail world. JD Sports, you're next...

Our transfer policy is what's likely to cause us to miss out on targets imo. We've seen in the past that once we've made an offer, then more often than not, we stick by it and don't negotiate any further - sometimes we do actually pull it off and get our man but sometimes we don't (as we've seen this summer).

Thanks for the info FenhamMag If worse comes to worse and I'm not able to get a ticket for that corner, will try and get as close as possible to it.

I guess my stance has not been well received by most on here then, haha. (Still going btw).

And if it were leaning on the positive? Oh yes, of course, we then we'd be told to watch our expectations. It seems Pardew has been reading N-O for the last month or so

The prophecy is coming true. Well in brummie.

Oh FFS man. Do fuck off Ranger. Surely there comes a point when enough is enough?

I'm already looking forward to the RAWK meltdown.

How are the mackems winning? Not that I'm complaining too much btw...

So, I bit the bullet and bought this today. Impulse buy (hypocrisy) ftw.

My reaction may have been over the top there^.

No Tiote there. Hang on, where the f*** is Ben Arfa in that squad? Think I may have to revise my prediction now...

Oh so he's out for three games? Not that long of a layoff really, in any case, I'll have every confidence in Harper to do a decent enough job in those three games...
