Incognito

Hope he hasnt lost any weight upstairs....he was deficient as it was!!!

We're seeing the difference between Hiddink's Chelsea and Scolari's Chelsea.

1-1!

I think we are watching the best 2 sides in England at the moment.Great game!

The 2 dipper full backs,Aurelio and Arbeloa have been immense this season.

Gerrard to Newcastle i've heard through the grape vine That is a "Gaye" suggestion.

Dippers will be Sky and Boro Setanta i should imagine.

a cant see any reason why we need to play a tall guy. the best way to beat a team when you cant pass a ball very well is not by starting a 20 year old next to an out of form striker and punting balls at him, and its even more wrong to try and do that against a team like stoke who play long ball football much better than we do because that's all they have. we need to keep the ball against stoke, regressing to long ball football is what they want. A very good ,well-made point...I don't see playing route 1 against Stoke doing us any favours.It's playing to their strengths...

Chelsea always play with the 3 central midfield,dare i say Shearer was naive in not flooding the middle of the park to combat their 3.Credit to Butt for a change though,I thought he worked his socks off.

Ryan Taylor might as well have worn one during the match.

nope..

Peter Cech has had some catching practice today...crossing has been in the main awful.

Colocini is dire...:-(

He did on Sky Sports though.

Peter Ramage> Ryan Taylor

Enrique very casual today...

Warren Barton and Tino.

The thing is...Hull pick up points in the most unlikely places???

Me too Yorkie....except Supermac was my first football hero. Yeah the comparison shared in this household has always been Supermac, given my dad was born in '62. "Big Wyn" then Supermac. My late father was a Wyn man,my late grandfather loved Wor Jackie,Albert Stubbins and Charlie Mitten!!! And as a young boy,he idolised Hughie Gallacher...my granda' that is!!

Me too Yorkie....except Supermac was my first football hero.

I concur. The same manager put up with worse for a long time with Gascoigne. Is that not potentially daft though as you are likely to get smaller fee's as the two players are up for sale over a disciplinary matter. It'll be a bit of a balancing act for Smith i'd imagine. We all know what happened to the last manager who tried to undermine Ferguson. Smith needs the money but he also needs something to offer the fans as a reason for selling that isn't "we're pure skint" to avoid an insurrection. Not being funny here, but Walter is far bigger to Rangers than Ferguson. The majority of the Rangers fans I have spoken to about this (granted they are mainly family) are in complete agreement with the pair being dropped. They humiliated not only Rangers but the country as well, and deserve to be punished for it. Barry Ferguson sometimes thinks that he is bigger than Rangers but he is mistaken. Boys like Ferguson, Boyd and McGregor behave as they do because they think they can get any manager sacked. They don't like Burley and I think it's been a case of "we got rid of Le Guen and we'll get rid of you aswell". David Murray has a lot to answer for. Certainly where Boumsong's concerned...mind you,so has is son-in law,if i'm right in saying,Souness.

To be fair...i'm banned too 'cos i'm English.

Mug the cunt.Give him a proper Yorkshire Dick Turpin welcome,as he crosses the Pennines...It's legal you know.

I've prematurely sex weed thinking about it!!!

Me too....always operated under unbelievable hard ship...except QPR,when he was the lame duck.
