Ronaldo

Obvious which game he meant, like. There was no abuse of SBR, though. Am element who doubted his ability to continue managing to his old standards, yes.

What abuse was this?

The lad's a talent but he wouldn't have got more game time at any of the sides above us.

Wealth's irrelevant, sadly. Abramovich is in it to win.

Gerrard's as media generic as it gets, man.

Decent.

Speak for yourself. I say it as I see it.

Is there bollocks. Better players, better people or better leaders. Nowt to do with skin colour.

As if Sol Campbell's inspired a race debate, man. He's a self-serving arsehole. Always was.

Lost interest so much he managed a far better goals-to-minutes ratio than those around him that season. He was still an absolute class act when he came here but Souness wanted Big Al holding the ball up. Well Shearer was on the sidelines for about three months that season and Bellamy had gone by January. But aye Paddy clearly wanted it badly even though he only managed about 6 goals in spite of all that. Shearer played 28 league games. Kluivert's tally of 13 in all competitions was respectable enough for his pitch time. Why am I even bothering, though. I went to these games, you didn't. Kluivert had a lot of class left.

He would if he hadn't said virtually the same thing about not selling him to us before selling him to us. IIRC. Exactly. It just hurts these fuckers that they're so powerless and insignificant compared to English clubs - even those outside the top 6 that make derisory offers for James Perch.

Not 10 years ago Edwards was driving a Vauxhall Astra.

To be fair, I've got admiration for clubs who act decisively and show a bit of ambition. As nice as guy as he is, they're just making themselves look stupid, investing heavily in the squad but persevering with rubbish like Chris Hughton.

I forgot about the 1-0. Leon Best somehow running through the defence at the end then going arse over tit was a particular highlight. Which is what convinced Pardew to give him a run in the first team - and he scored a hat-trick in the next game.

Picturing old men with cats seems a bit weird to me, like.

What nonsense, man.

I was agreeing with you.

Could hardly have missed.

I'd be overjoyed by that tbh. The luxury of not seeing his silly face for the last 10 games. Hopefully they put Beardsley in charge and he brings Ben Arfa and Marv back into the fold, and we play amazing football, and score lots of goals, and go undefeated. Finally culminating with Pardew then getting binned. Yeah, that'll happen.

Nah, Carr was someone he'd wanted for a while. I've no idea about Butt but you're right about Kluivert. He wanted rid of Shearer and to replace him with Emile Mpenza.

Norwich easy on the eye? They're the worst in the league to watch by a distance.

Did my head in that one. Would've been a good partner for Colo in his first season.

Smith couldn't run or play football, Faye could run a little bit.

You're both talking nonsense. Under Souness before Parker signed he was decent. Under Bobby he never really got firing and in the Souness - Roeder season he didn't make any impact until the last couple of months with Emre. I was at the games, like.
