What's the cut off for 10 yellows? Is it 31st December, end of Jan or does it not have a cut-off?

Roy Keane being mentioned as a possibility for Swansea. That would be 2 of the 3 places confirmed then and a scrap between us, Sunderland, Norwich, Bournemouth (and I believe Watford will have a stinker of a second half of the season) for one slot.

Brother in Law is a typical Spurs fan. Must win.

Chairman was waiting to recieve his OBE first

He'd be on loan at northampton

We beat Chelsea exactly a year ago today with Alnwick in goal. We need another crazy day like that just to avoid a raping. I've prepped the Liverpool fans at work, less than 8 and its a moral victory

But Moyes does have a track record of working within a budget and getting good fees for players. I'm undecided on Moyes, I was in Liverpool for a lot of his time at Everton and the fans loved him. I thought he was a man who could get a tune out of disinterested players for a while but lacked consistency (this was 2000 through 2005). He changed my mind towards the end of his time there. Before Smc I could see it working, now I think he might suffer the same and not be a big enough personality to turn the players around. Overall though I think I'd be willing to give it a chance and he would keep us up. Not a very inspiring choice though

Got an awful feeling that Colback will be wearing the armband on Sunday. Last week we had Cisse in the press passing on the message that the players do care - back in the team Today Colback is passing on the message that the players are despearte to win in training and show passion all the time - captain this week

Janmaat out for Mbemba at right back anyone? That will send the message out to everyone that you dont mess with Stevey Mac

When it comes to wingers I wonder how Ginola and Robert would have been fared without Gillespie and Solano on the other flank. Neither Gillespie and Solano were as flashy as their left wing counterparts but give a different weapon on both wings and complimented eachother perfectly. If we had relied purely on the left side, which to be fair was not as consistent a wing, I'm sure people would have moaned more about the performance of our frenchmen. So to extend that thinking... If we did get a Townsend on loan, or could get a run of games out of Aarons we may see a different Thauvin as we would once again have different types of weapons on each wing. Maybe, maybe not but I'd be willing to give it a go before writing Thauvin off competely. Now if only we could find a Lee or a Speed as well

0-12 more like

Face down, ass up. That's the way we will get fucked

Willo to score the winner with a header from a corner. Nah just kidding. 0-5 coming up, 0-3 if Sturridge is out

He's not a good manager, but he can get a reaction out of players in the short term. Would not be in favour of him being in charge, but could see a logic to Penfold looking at him

So when's his court case being heard anyway? No doubt it will be after the next derby so that he can score another one past us

It would need to be an impact manager now. We're basically looking for someone with a personality to come in to kick some lazy asses into some form of performance. Unfortunately Sherwood might just be the right man for now. Longer term you'd hope that the same impact manager can then develop his own squad (which I don't think Sherwood can). Basically we need a Keegan type again

Marv? Or was just by default when Liverpool dropped out

I will always believe that PArdew was responsible for dampening the clubs ambitions. Allardyce did a number on Ashley's willingness to buy players, the Keegan fiasco and Shearer not being able to save us turned him off any sort of connection with the fans, but even in Pardew's first summer we bought Cabaye, Ben Arfa on a permanent deal, got Ba on a decent wage and then spent on Cisse in the January. A profit on transfers model existed, but the signings were progessive as well as being potential. I'm not forgetting the Carrol money, but nobody would have turned down 35 million for a player with 6 months premier league experience. Come the next season and increased hope/expectation. Didn't Pardew just do a great job of telling everyone that we wouldn't be able to compete and that we were lucky to be on the same pitch as Brighton. Cue a bad season and lack of profit on transfers, the bar was lowered in terms of what calibre of player we would look to make a profit on - its now all bargain basement deals (until this summer when he found a fiver behind the sofa). Ashley knows nothing about football and is easiy swayed - if enough people were telling him to invest after the 5th place and it would lead to better performances and ultimately cash he would have. Instead we got a message that we fluked 5th and shoudlnt be looking to get there again

We'll still see Gouffran - Anita will be benched

In the right systems the likes of Thauvin, Sissoko, Cisse, Gini, Mitro, De Jong are all decent enough players. Definitely good enough to be in a non top 4 premier league club. The problem is that they aren't suited to eachother and playing them together highlights their individual weaknesses rather than allowing their strengths to shine. Basically we've too many of the same type of player and thats a recipie for disaster

It was the bit where he refused to sleep on the rights side of the camp that let him down though. Reckon he'll finish in the top 3 mind - that Vicky bint from Geordie Shore is going to win it with Dyer and possibly Chris Eubank making up the final

Man if I had the money the buy the club the first thing I would be doing is getting this man invovled in some capacity. He just gets it

Can't think of much less threatening than Schteve Mc having a go at you

I hate the way these cowards given these empty, meaningless, token interviews. As if he gives a shit man, rather be in the casino or trying to add to his collection of wives. Agree, but the fact it is Cisse spouting rubbish will be a club decision, and leads to him starting
