yeah and we need to keep it open whilst the new one is built - so further up in leazes park would be ideal - or leave it as it is.

woodgate barely had to make a tackle he was good positionally.

just keep it central, thats all we ask.

after practically shitting myself pre-match the past few weeks, its nice to be free of any nerves coming up to this weekend. outside of the top 2 or 3, i reckon we could give anyyone a game now.

seemed like a miesrable sod but has recently been playing with a smile on his face. you can see he's clearly up for it.

the whole team just seems full of confidence. and in the stands it doesnt feel as if its all over if we concede first anymore. and SJP is turning into a fortress again hopefully.

yeah this has been so important. it means we now have an actual presence in midfield. gone are the days of hayden trying to do the job of 3 players (badly).

another 3 wins and few draws enough for this season?

"clear and obvious" i reckon each var check should last a max 20-30 seconds - if you cannit work it out within that time then its nor clea and obvious and the initla decision stands.

murphy, fraser? but only as RWB. scary.

may even have to go to a back 3 if manqs and tripper are both out. krafth did ok today but dont trust him as a RB over a whole 90 minutes.

in beast mode but where's the radge come from though. he used to hide, and get knocked over easily. manu away was hidieous.

and Dubs has to work on his kicking ffs.

ASM -Just wish sometimes he'd help his fullback out when we're under the cosh and defending a lead towards the end of the game. i know others may feel he needs stay on further up as an out ball.

sure nolan tried to curl one it the far post right at the end and missed by inches.

Pav!!!!!!!!!!! ffs there's gonna be tears that day!

gary speed.

he needs to borrow some of maxi's magic tape and bandages.

cheers bud.

the bairn has an u14 game at benfield lunchtime sunday so we're cutting it fine for villa. how long do they keep the turnstlies open? any of them in the gallowgate stay open all game, or the first half at least?

just hope Gerrard rests coutinho and buendia for sunday.

every team needs a manager on the pitch, and he's ours. probably our best since gary speed.

after seeing his nufc.co.uk interview, anyone starting on Big Jow would have felt the wrath of Trippier and not played again this season.

he had the advantage of being surrounded by world class players and also a wonderful man-manager.

got it spot on with Bruno - especially from a psychological point of view. Bruno didnt truly have a clue about the fans, the pressure, the players and the SJP atmosphere. letting him watch from the sidelines for nearly 90 minutes and take it all in, then letting him join in for 5 minutes when the game was won and feel also part of the "lap of honour". think its taken a lot of pressure off him and he also wont come into his first home game like a rabbit in the headlights.
