SILENCE!

COUNTER. Now 2-1 up. Told you.

It incredible, like. In February 2010 I completely wrote him off as a top player; then he spends the next 12 months looking like England's best striker. I hold my hands up and admit it my mistake, even going so far to defend the lad when people argued he wasn't one of the best strikers in the league. Then he spends 2011 looking like he did for the first half of the Championship season: slow to react, slow of stride, imbalanced, poor first touch and a tendency to horribly misread the game.

Horrible game that. One of the many away games in 03-04 in which we conceded late on because we were virtually down to 10 men with Shearer on the field.

Lakaku is a hideous chap. Face for Crimewatch.

I remember him scaring the shit out of the talentless little boy wonder at Villa, Hendrie.

Thought the Premier League had already said it is to be applause? I'm not sure how they've got any say in the matter.

Carroll.

Does this not need to be updated?

Has Sammy Ameobi become a PL footballer in the last 2 weeks? People building this lad up to be something he's years away from. Not right.

In other news, Demba Ba is a shitter version of Ameobi.

Why not?

Wish we could let this thread die a death. He's up there with Owen as far as I'm concerned, wouldn't piss on the cunt if he was on fire.

Be nice if he learned to play football, but his defensive efforts have been important and appreciated.

Absolutely grinds on my testicles when they do that. You don't see Latin papers printing news stories about David Bekum and Wayn Rouny. It's not a paper. It's an article from one of our own fans.

Not all. 99% perhaps.

What was he saying? It's on his Twitter. Something about Collymore being a 'first class nothing'.

Like most PL footballers should be capable of, he can hit a football fairly hard. An insanely powerful shot is something you'd attribute to a Robert or Martins, even Shearer's level of power would be pushing that definition.

Rubbish, when did Best last score? Eh? What does that have to do with Demba Ba getting chances? Just stop it, Mick, you pathetic old fairy. One of us will be proved wrong and one of us will be proved right. I sincerely hope it's you that's proved correct for the sake of our short-term prospects. THE END.

Parry was having a right go at Collymore in relation to his depression earlier. Was very OTT.

Yeah, with Patterson and Briscoe.

Superb comic relief, like. Just hope the fun doesn't stop.
