We played the best fucking football I've seen in ages and every single player puts in their performance of the season, and "we only have ourselves to blame"? You're taking the piss, surely???!! You cynical cunts really need to fuck off. While it was 11 v 11 we dominated them in every single department, bar the counter.

This really isn't the best time to fish for bites.

I am shaking my head is disbelief at this comment - can't even insult, its so barmy. Explain then? Bassong didn't even touch Kamara when he went down. c*** Sorry, but you're deluded. Bassong grabbed him to hold him back. Once he let go, he clipped his heals. Clear red card. Absolutely Watch the replay. Seriously.

I HOPE YOU FUCKING DIE IN A FIRE YOU ASS-LICKING SLIME SUCKING PIG HUMPING TWAT

Minimum? 1. To be really safe, 3.

has anyone ever said he doesn't have a football brain for this reason? to you sir.

Was that Wullie and Skirge I saw on TV

When Allardyce did it we actually managed to replace said overpaid players with even worse ones, so is that really what we need? Granted there are a few players so far over the hill they need to be replaced regardless, but I think we'll be better off building on the resources we already have.

can the fucker cross? If so I'd play Butt with Guthrie in the center, and plop the old Smith/Viduka partnership up front and watch them fly in. Well, Smith's improved to be fair - he'll actually take a shot on nowadays!

He used to make the fancy stuff look easy at the beginning of the season, iirc.

nah mate, we would of got relegated last season with him I agree that we might have avoided relegation trouble (assuming that we survived his first season with us), but we would have sacked him after the end of this season anyway.

Fuck Barton, he isn't going to play for us ever again anyway.

Mathematically, yes the Liverpool match didn't change anything. Mentally however, the last two matches must have hit everyone hard. I can't imagine us beating anyone now.

When you get to see the replays, you get to see it was not worthy of a red card. It was the ref that was a twat. Sure, Barton shouldn't have done a tackle like that. But it was not a red card. Thats what I thought, but as soon as Alonso came off in a stretcher that was the end of our appeal.

I didn't think the tackle was that bad, relative to a Lee Cattermole special, and he was our best midfielder up to that point too.

I don't think I'd feel anything when we go down 3 weeks from now. That match might be the end of my interest in watching football on TV.

...which one raotl Then link us. I have to decide whether I should remove Torres from my fantasy prem team. <_<

It took Keegan 8 games to get our first win, and people were complaining last year that Keegan's arrival was already late (it was a short while after the end of the transfer window).

I'd agree with that. In theory, yes. But I'm not sure how much they'll be able to adjust to the system while getting humped for 90 minutes. Aye. Plus the fact our goal difference is pretty much our only advantage over the others right now. As Gol says we've never been able to intentionally keep teams at bay but we might have to try after the first 15mins or so... We did pretty well against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.

Give it up man. He hasn't taken anything out of the club... unlike his predecessors. Given that we've made net profit in two transfer windows in a row, how would you know that?

Owen did plenty of closing down, more so than Martins I'd say. His problem is that he doesn't do the goalscoring bit of his job description anymore.

Neither were the two other strikers who played last night, actually. Owen is hiding 99.9% of the time he is on the pitch. Viduka hasn't even managed to find his way on to the pitch and has been hiding in treatment rooms. If Owen was hiding he wouldn't have stolen Martins's throughball to fluff that 1v1, and he was doing plenty of defending for us on top of that (not his job though, and should have saved his stamina for making runs to get on the end of things instead). Fuck off with the Viduka comment, what is he supposed to do about that?
