Did fine against nothing.

Has Yorkie got something against Santon?

100% dive.

I don't blame him. The prospect of playing next to Mike Williamson must haunt his sleep. It haunts my sleep, and I don't even play football much anymore.

I think there was, slightly.

The difference is, Ba could play out wide and it worked well for the team and the player. Exactly, not to mention the fact that Cisse has never looked anything other than class in the middle of a 3. Spot on Ron. Here he is! Love this man.

Just what ma dad said. 'What the f*** you doing bringing them two off?' seemed to be the consensus around there. Why? Who wanted him off?

The crowd didn't want Jonas off either. Bunch of drunken lunatics.

Who isn't? Can be very good at what he does but he's no footballer.

I hope you're not serious, bud. That's the rubbish I'd expect from your pal Al.

Jonas looks abysmal in every role.

Please come here, Mathieu

I saw him touch Pardew's hand. There was no snub as such, not that I'd have blamed him.

Don't see why it should, like. Up against the tiring legs of the worst part of the worst team in the league - he should look good in that situation.

Played out of position, plays better than a tiring Ba and gets subbed off before the hour. The lad has every right to be p*ssed off and show it.

To be fair, Obertan's a much better option than Jonas these days and it was obvious we'd improve after that change.

When did that happen?

For 30 minutes at most, perhaps. Then what do you do, take him off?

Nah ive always said it with the limited options we've got, if Pardew has to play two men up front and go long like he loves to, it should always be Ba with Shola, or Cisse with Shola, because then you got two different types of forwards that offer the opposition's defense different things to defend against. Shola is incapable of starting football matches, it's as simple as that.

Taking far too long to learn from his mistakes. If he persists with Jonas into the new year that'll be it for me.

Anita.

2 goals in 2012? Great finish, like.
