Jesus christ. Seriously, I've now turned MOTD off, their build up is fucking cringeworthy, what was that attempt at the creepy halloween voice?

You could tell Lawro was really unimpressed by Gabby's 'joke'. Don't blame him, was shocking And what was that intro to the match just then!?

Couldn't have put it better myself, Ian!

Unreal. A group of opposing fans that want Nolan! Never thought I'd see the day.

Couldn't fault the man today, immense. You have to love him!

Hero, I'm so glad we've given him the time to adapt and are reaping the rewards. More than worth the cash.

That whole bit was stupid. Giving Carroll only 1 heading better than Bent, fucking shite. Do they do that shite every match? Shocking stuff. Top performance Andy, was willing him on to score so badly, would've capped the day off perfectly.

This past half hour reading through the last few pages, my cheeks hurt from the constant smile on my face! That FM guy, that's fantastic, solely going on FM to sabotage a video game team Our day? It's our season lads, enjoy it back in our shadow, I'm sure you'll be used to it again in no time!

Can't believe his passing, never been able to appreciate it as he'd rarely hit a team mate before, but it's finally coming together. And his set pieces were just as fantastic today.

Just go for it. Same team. If we sit back they'll get through some time, I just don't think we've got the team to play 90 minutes of parking the bus in front of goal. Just try and play.

No he didn't. He shrugged his shoulders. Since when has a shrug of the shoulders been the sign for play on? play on is when the ref puts both arms out infornt and Clattenburg never did that once. The ref has to give a clear indication/sign that he's waving play on so the player understands fully. A shrug of the shoulders is not play on. How long has Gomes been playing professional football? The bloke knew he picked the ball up and he should have distributed it asap. He doesn't need to be told to 'play on' by the ref or anyone else because it was so blatantly obvious that it was a case of the keeper just getting the game restarted by bowling it out or kicking it from his hands. I do think the ref was wrong to let it stand but to absolve Gomes of any blame is fucking bonkers. They both fucked up. But if it's a handball, and he didn't indicate play on, it's a free kick. Since when was a free kick taken by picking the ball up and throwing it on the ground to prepare kicking it?

Didn't understand the opinion of him from last season, never thought he was that bad. And he's certainly a step up on Perch, that's all I prayed for when he returned. He's got enough time to build on this and become a good, useful player for us. Was really impressed with him today.

Everyone at my work was shouting for Nolan to take it for the hat trick and I stood there with a smile and just said Shola, 3-0. Only time I'm truly confident in the man, and he doesn't disappoint!

I'm loving the suit. Stay.

If we can keep him without giving him ridiculous wages I would, but if he wants to hold the club to ransome, which he seems to attempt everytime it comes to a new contract for him, he can get fucked. Not as important as I thought he would be when he came on the scene all those years ago.

I agree that Tiote is our most important player. Not saying he's the best in terms of ability, but he's easily most important. The role he plays is as absolutely needed, and if we lose him, like others have said, it's back to Smith, and that says it all. He takes so much pressure off others in the team and we're just so much more comfortable with him here. Amazing.

I know a lot of us have been mentioning it would be worth trying to two together for a little while, but I don't think anyone could've foreseen just how well it's worked. Let's hope it's not a purple patch and they are just a good team

Would it be an overreaction to say that my love for this group of lads is as big as my love for the Sir Bobby team? Obviously in completely different positions as a club, but just the team we have, so many amazing blokes, players you can really get behind. I was too young to truly appreciate the Keegan years, so right now, I think the best I've felt about this club in a long, loong time.

I tried to read that article above, but that first paragraph just annoyed the hell out of me. Read the headline, read the first and last paragraph and I'm still to know exactly what the point of that piece is.

I fail to understand where the advantage came from for the handball. When did he indicate it? Apparently a referee can play advantage but doesn't have to let the player know, how on earth does that work? Think it was Dermot Gallagher who said it on SSN.

I've always been a bit of a fan of Phil Neville for some reason.

Really? I read he was spunking 18 million on a teenage goalkeeper from Athletico

I'm lucky enough to have a ticket for tomorows/todays game. Does anyone else want to join me in an anti tube Gray chant? Really,I'll take the blame,the ban,the totall works.No,I'm not mad,I've a note from my mam sayin I'm really ok.Ok Apart from that I'm backing the Toon for a 2-1 win. Did I mention that Andy Grays a K*nT? Have I missed something? Why the intense hatred? Not that I'm particularly fond of him myself at all.

Had Arsenal -1, Chelsea -1, Real -1, Barca. So that's already down the pan.

That annoyed me too, I can't remember much they said about us that wasn't cliched, unresearched bollocks in their preview on our game.
