So we wont sign Gomis until Saturday. Bugger Might be a Tuesday. You just don't know which was the pattern will extend next.

Yeah, it's like a pattern. Wednesday was a Jonas day. Friday was a Danny day. Thursday looks set to be a Fabricio day then, there's no denying that.

Don't tell me we're going to start guessing the most popular day now

If it was butt you would be praising him for getting stuck in If it was Butt I'd be asking why he was risking himself in a fucking friendly

Just in, decent game for a friendly. Whoever is 26 for them went to the Roy Keane school of tackling, filthy fucker. Jonas - looks tidy, will only get better with more games Guthrie - never wastes a pass but dissapeared in the second half when we barely kept the ball. Took his goal nicely Milner - held the ball up better than Smith and was more of a goal threat than Smith. Played pretty well Duff - was ok, missed a decent one on one on his right foot and also faded second half. Geremi - put in a good corner for Taylor's goal (Taylor celebrated like it was the best thing EVER) and was ok Beye - rusty Cacapa - Solid I thought, should never shoot from 30 yards Enrique - I like the kid but the more he makes silly errors it annoys me, failed to clear for the second goal. Also offers nothing going forward, which I think Keegan will hold against him. Butt & Given - Usual stuff Of the subs, Bassong wasn't really tested (although he absolutely screamed at Enrique at one point), Donaldson made us less of a threat up front if that was possible in the second half and Edgar didn't do much of note. A fuck load of police went to the "singing section" following someone being thrown out, seemed very unnecessary tbh.

Because you touch yourself at night

As has been discussed in other threads, there's no chance we'll sign a striker while all the current ones are still here. In which case, a left-back (aswell as a midfielder obviously) would be pretty useful. We really have got absolutely nowt after Enrique. If Smith moves on then things might start to happen as far as signing a striker goes. But at the moment, we've already got six wage bills to contend with in that department. I'm worried about the centre-midfield business really - i don't know if we've got the pulling power this summer to finally get that playmaker/door-opener/creative mid. I'd be just about content if it was another creative winger we brought in; our options after Jonas and N'Zogbia concern me, and we don't even know if Zoggy's heart is in it. You've just contradicted yourself, you're right in saying another striker won't come in unless one is shipped out, and there's absolutely no way another winger will come in with Duff/Milner/N'Zogbia/Jonas all on the books.

is that where the family enclosure used to be? No family enclosure was higher up, Sports Bar is in Level 2

What is the Sir John Hall Sports Bar and should I be happy sitting there? This is exactly why I (usually) insist on getting the tickets..

Zuberbuhler's own goal against England in Euro 2004 was class. Did it hit the post and come back off his head and go in? Also (and I'm pretty sure I must be remembering this wrongly) wasn't he about 36 in Euro 2004? That's the one. Think he's 38 now. I'm sure Jorg Stiel was in goal for Switzerland in Euro 2004.

Watch out the rest of the forum, your avatar is fucking huge

To be fair, I was told the same thing by a mate of mine who presumably works in the same place. Either that or Jones went on a tour of the North East talking to staff about his injury.

What are the Premier League rules on names on shirts? Can it be anything? Benjamin Mwaruwari has Benjani, Morten Gamst Pedersen has Gamst (it's his Mam's maiden name or something), Tyrone Mears used to just have "Ty," I guess anything can happen.

Speaking of bad challenges, anyone see Diouf's against Ajax, 2 footed lunge in the second minute. Could be some fun with him this season

Well, that was awful. Not really worth talking about until we have most of our team on the fucking pitch though. Smith went yet another game without manging a shot. Well done him.

Sorted then, easy win

Is the stream shit or the setanta signal shit? The picture, which I pay good money for, breaks up frequently then I get the "no signal is being received on this channel" message. Bad times.

I hope this isn't anything like the team we put out during the actual season. Why would it be?

Yeah problem is everything's going to shit, the sky+ is on the blink because the remote's fucked, I'm trying to get the Sky Sports package back and the rest of the family want to get HD. And the dish needs re-aligning. Amateurs.

"Susan........make porn come on my telly"

Yeah I was just out on the roof trying to fix it, my Mam's gutted because now I've lost Gems TV or something. Oops

Anyone else get shit signal on setanta? It's boiling my piss

Don't really mind which, was just suggesting it because I'm pretty sure we've bid for Warnock (was that confirmed? I lose track)

Maybe Blackburn? With Warnock coming here? Villa would make sense given that Bouma just got crocked

Best day of my life tbh
