Colos Short and Curlies

20 years ago the debut of Sir Les and the birth of the greatest team never to win a trophy! 14 years ago the debut of Robert and Bellemy. Really doesn't seem that long ago for either.

Possibly the worst foul throw ever by Everton just then

Alan Armstrong for Coventry

Kamara looking like the child of Lionel Richie and Stevie Wonder

I think City are waiting for Pep and are happy to keep Pellegrini until he's available as long as he is in the top 4. The switch will happen next summer I reckon

I hate it when fat people show off their ribs

They'll be pretty decent (I.e. Top half) or dog shut bottom 5. They'll have 3 streaks of wins or losses and it just depends on whether its 2 winning streaks of 6 games or 2 losing streaks. We'll finish between 9 and 12 and is be pretty confident of finishing above them.

Not sure on finishing being something that can't be taught. Riv's lowlights from last season were all a lack of composure and falling over his own feet when trying to finish. That can be improved on. Same with cisse, his instinctive finishing (which absolutely is natural) is generally good but his thinking finishing could do with some work.

Just had the pleasure of telling a palace supporting colleague of what to expect from woodmans coaching. He thinks they are after obertan as well

Huh? Well it looks like an Adidas shirt and has an Adidas logo on it (well the picture in today's papers of it certainly does) so I'd assume Adidas are happy with what they have done....

I like the magpie shirt but I do think they've missed a trick in the template when they've got Adidas backing and it's the 20th anniversary of the grandad collar shirts

Age unknown?

I read something on gluten free diets the other day, gluten free food is typically more calorific then tasty food. Maybe fat Mike has been gluten free all of his life

Wingers.... Good Job Pardew isn't here anymore, he'd stick him out wide of a front 3. That far forward? More like a hard working right sided midfielder Whose first only job is to protect the full back before doing anything else.

That would be epic I want a hybrid of the Shearer one-arm-aloft and the 'silence-the-critics' tongue slice.

Colback being sold - that would excite me as much as any signing

Love it

Surely Anderlect would just ask for more money? Why would they? €17m is €17m regardless of the exchange rate

A combination of O'Brien and Dabizas helped us to reach the Champions League. Won't have a bad word said about either of them! (lets forget that we conceded over 50 goals that season!)

Especially when we had Owen in the squad who was surely the replacement intended?

To be fair though, most people look like a unit next to Big Vurn and Colback

Maybe the agent just fancied a night down the Bigg Market, come over under the pretence of negotiating and whack it all on expenses.

Do the youngsters still do the ASL thing? That's late 90's IRC talk there.

I reckon that lass is fit
