    But we got Moore in for free as replacement. A really sound piece of business according to the fat one.
  2. A plate of fruit to speed up restitution after the game most likely.
  3. One of our best offensive players today. Disagree, didn't see much in terms of end product. Most of our attack came through the middle or the right. Look at Andys post. In addition to that, he was making runs down the left all game. He had two or three poor crosses, but at least he came in position to deliver them.
  4. You just wont let this year long vendetta against Colo drop, will you? Simpson I agree with, he's been absolutely shocking in the last 3 months. Sheffields goal was a pre-view of how he will fare in the PL against big and fast players. He can not mark big players on set pieces. He is to slow and short. If who ever in charge next season can organize so he doesn't have to have those duties, I think he will do just fine next season.
  5. NICKY BUTT MAKES IT 2-1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  6. The commentator on bet365 was debating if it is allowed to use a "human shield" like that, or if it was some sort of obstruction. Anyone care to shine some light on that one? I have no idea, but I can't see why it shouldn't be allowed.
  7. This is why he will be raped by the likes of Carlton Cole, Jason Roberts and similar types of forwards next season. He is to weak.
  8. I don't think Hughton is capable of keeping us up even with full backing from Ashley, so no matter how much he deserves a chance, Ashley can't risk us going down again. In the same way Keegan axed important players last time we went up, Ashley too have to be ruthless when there are important areas to improve.
  9. Yeah I bet they felt silly. They looked like cheesy chip loving hooligans! How jammy though, their first match in years and they get on telly straight away! That reminds me... Can't believe I haven't told this story on N-O before. Happened after my second trip to SJP (spring of 2008 I think), I had an extra day in London after the match (an unfortunate 3-0 pasting against Liverpool) and decided I'd head over to Upton Park to catch West Ham vs. Spurs, partly because I wanted to see Nobby in action and partly because I had nothing better to do with my time. Since this was a spur of the moment thing, I didn't have a ticket on me which left me circling the ground in search of a tout... Turns out these aren't all that easy to find in England and I was just about to head elsewhere when I found a bloke who offered me a ticket for 2x face value. Helluva lot of cash to drop on watching a match as a neutral... But what the hell, I don't get to go to England that often. So I grab my ticket and run over to the ground, hoping to see Spurs get a good pasting... And that's when I notice that my ticket is in the away section. The god damn first row of the away section. The minute I sit down two rather nice looking (and large) blokes from either side clap me on the back and ask me whereabouts I'm from, and I don't have the heart (or balls) to tell them that I'm a neutral (worse yet, a Newcastle fan.) So I play along and try to stay as quiet as possible... And West Ham score first off a beautiful assist from Solano. It takes everything I've got to feign mild disappointment. When Michael Dawson scores a late equalizer, the blokes on either side of me are all over me jumping up and down and I muster every last molecule of acting skill in my body to appear happy. So that was that, I chalk it off as an unusual experience and head home. A few days later, I'm browsing match reports on the net when I find this. http://img.todaystory.net/img/030daf9aef8d58d1cf916865a218715b.jpg Yup, the only time I've ever been caught on camera in fifteen years of watching footy... And it had to be while I was sitting with Tottenham away fans in Upton Park. Nice story. Kind of makes a nice parody smiley of Dowie as well http://img195.imageshack.us/img195/4746/oldtype.jpg
  10. Shola. Hes so cool he start to breakdance on top of the promotion pile!
  11. Didn't know that. I would still like him in our squad though. 3 goals and 2 assists in 17 starts and 8 subs for a midfielder isn't awful by any means, and we could do with a set piece specialist in our squad.
  12. 7 goals and 2 assists in 25 appearances(8 as sub), for a struggling side isn't that bad at all.
  13. Players I'd definatley like us to go for if west ham goes down are Diamanti and Behrami. Maybe Noble, but he is very similar to Guthrie and Barton. Maybe Green, but then again we have other areas on the pitch that needs investment more. Maybe Cole, but we already have a big guy up front, and he would be expensive. Maybe Upson, but he is old and injury prone. Behrami at right back, with Simspson as back up isn't to shabby at all. Diamanti to get some creativity and end product from midfield. Only thing we would need after that to "secure" our place in the PL is a goalscorer imo.
  14. Luca Toni, Telefoni, Berlusconi Chiama qui per te - NUMERO UNO!!!
  15. Same can be said about Nolan man. Your point is moot.
  16. Classing Nolan as a failure this season is horeshit. Yes, his general play stinks, but his goals have been to valuable to put him in that category. That's not IMO, that's a fucking fact bitch!

  18. Surprise attack? Dirty Ric Flair-like tactics? surely only if he had a folding metal chair to thwack him round the back of the head with while Staylor was bigging himself up to a crowd of physio's... WWNUFC...a new Sky 1 series in the making Disappointed if he didn't slam him through the Spanish announce table tbh. Jerry Lawler: "Did you say jawbreaker? What is that not as good as a slobberknocker..?" Jim Ross: "No, but it has slobberknocker potential."
  19. Hes the type of forward who rapes defenders like Colo for breakfast, so we would at least be sure he wouldn't score against us. Other then that, there isn't much positive to say.

    Jonas Gutierrez

    wow, just wow. A set of supporters who actually seem to know what they are talking about? Highlighting Gutierrez, Enrique and Guthrie as our best players, and Nolan as our worst. Well I'll be....

    http://img80.imageshack.us/img80/6679/dowie.jpg Not only is he his god damn handsome self, but he looks really confident on the task at hand :lol:
  22. This is what really gets to me. The two players we generally think is our best players, and rightfully so, are generally portraited as our worst players by fans and media who don't follow us that close. I voted for Colo, btw..
