Trevor Francis is full of shit.

That was a pen.

Mustard should read bastard.

shit sub, mustard.

get in

Krul couldn't get to that.

shit

Stating the obvious but Ben Arfa is world class when he's playing at his best.

Ben Arfa was made in heaven.

I was over the moon he didnt shoot.

Stroke of genius from Pardew, if only we'd thought about it sooner.

Good first half, picking the right team helps.

He changed shirts

Anita's been good anita has changed everything imo, i honestly believe he's that important to us improving His distribution has been first class.

Ben Arfa is brilliant.

I agree and I actually think we'll do OK today.

Villa finished last season on the same points as us and only took a single point off us, I think today will give us a good idea of how our season might go.

If we get humped, which I don't expect, it's one of a series of results. The manager isn't solely responsible for our performances and I didn't suggest that he was. Your post did suggest that once he picks the team his job is over and you’ve posted something similar since.

The stupidity of your post is suggesting that Pardew has done his job as long as he picks the right team when that is only part of his job. I do give praise when it's deserved, it's just not deserved that often.

That just shows the stupidity of your post.

No Shola on the bench.

Who coaches and motivates the players?

Jarrow? They were probably queuing for food parcels.

I doubt it was that many.

I've been told that roughly a thousand didn't get in by somebody who claimed he was about 200 from the turnstile with about 800 behind him when the turnstiles were closed.
