Ronaldo

Quite incredible how proudly Wullie displays his double standards. Constantly portraying the players as blameless victims under this Ashley/Pardew setup but crucifying one who decides to leave for a club with ambition when NUFC (at best) virtually tell him to.

Brilliant header. Fucking hell.

Is that a joke? He gets treated like a king, man. My family saw him in Fratelli's (again) a couple of weeks back and he was getting loads of positive attention. The irony of him talking about the lack of NE intelligence is in the fact that he benefits from it more than anyone.

I'm the last poster on here who'd defend any action from Mourinho.

Take more than you and whoever to do that, man.

I meant from the fans.

One of my favourite quotes that. Bellamy wasn't the only one, either. Going away to Arsenal at the height of their brilliance 3 days after a tricky home game and taking the game to them and winning. Imagine that happening under this shower of shite.

He just wants to be talked about. His players have all had attention for years and years. It'll be funny when Chelsea win nowt this season.

I think the closest he's come to going is HT at Everton. Those 2 goals kept him in a job.

He'd be obsolete in any PL side not looking to launch it, tbh.

Either way performances like Saturday reflect really badly on the players. MYM, for example, was fucking awful, but it isn't his fault he's got an excuse for a manager and an excuse for a club captain offering him guidance. Such players won't improve under the current setup, no matter what their potential.

I think Ashley probably does care more about our results than most give him credit for. At the end of the day, our transfer policy revolves around the premise of buying players on the cheap and selling them on for a profit. You can't generate interest let alone profitable offers in our players if they're all performing shite. Exactly the point I made this time last year. How many of our players are currently worth the same or more than they were a couple of seasons ago? I can't think of one.

I think he cares a little, but only because it doesn't bode well for next season.

I have Chelsea 3rd with City top. Sunderland 18th, 1 point behind Norwich.

We played decent football at times in the first half of the season. Nothing nearly as bad as what Norwich serve up 3 times a month.

I'd love for Norwich and this lot to go with Fulham. Horrible clubs who've played deplorable football all season.

They could have their pick of better keepers with more potential.

Santon strolls back into LB, man. He's streets ahead of both.

What angry reaction?

Haidara's certainly better at overlapping and he'll become a threat in time. I see nothing in him that suggests he's a defender, though.

I want this lot to the win the league, like. City and particularly Chelsea are just too detestable.

Fair enough.

I like the guy, but this is a good one Preposterous thing to say given how many times he 'contributed' to games in which we got utterly dicked.
