jesus, all the parts of the squad that are broken and people choose to constantly abuse the one man who has been a bright light for us for nearly a decade now. Just shameful, f****** shameful.

The distinction of British and foreign is completely immaterial, what we need is a good, experienced manager. As long as he's that, his nationality doesn't matter. The sad fact being that we're unlikely to get one, regardless of whether we go domestic or foreign.

Completely the opposite. The boo brigade can't seem to wait to jump on Given every fucking time we concede. Even when he's the only thing that's kept the scoreline level for 50 minutes.

No mention of Given's s*** clearance i see,... The blame starts and ends at the person who created the calamity. If Cacapa hoofs it, Enrique doesn't have to pass back and Given doesn't have to clear under pressure. Simple fact. Completely agree. Should never have been in that situation in the first place. No reason to pass it back to Enrique.

Are the fans chanting "Big Sam's Black and White Army?" o_0

OWEN! WHY! Jesus what's happened to this man.

Cacapa's and Given both at fault, Cacapa for back passing it under pressure, and Given for hitting it straight at him! WHY?

How could Given have saved that? First of all he had no way of anticipating that Ronaldo would try to ground it, and it also took a deflection off Milner's foot. It's miraculous that he even got a hand on it. Oh, and there's the second goal. Fuck.

i'm afraid it is Aye, we literally have no attack. It's just a matter of how much we're embarassed. Might as well get Viduka on and try.

yup, there we go. Sigh.

fuck, free kick. About even odds that we concede.

Well, second half started excitingly.

I was gonna say. Not often we've strung more than 4 passes together in the opposition half this season. "all that ground passing" hasn't necessarily been more accurate than just hoofing it up, has it though. 0-0 at HT! Hoorah!

Ronaldo needs to either come off or get a good smacking in the dressing room. We're not playing particularly well, but it looks like we've caught Man United on an off day.

God, thank you so much for Shay Given.

shouldn't have been disallowed. Oh well, not like we deserve a goal. Ronaldo in full-on sulking, pouting, crybaby mode. That's a positive for us.

Considering the other thing's he's doing, I think I'm willing to forgive him.

if anything I'd bring off Owen for Viduka. Don't know why it wasn't that way in the first place.

Almost giving away a penalty aside, we would certainly have conceded by now without Smith's tackles.

Smith just pulls him down inside the box. My God, where is this man's brain.

Not a bad shot considering that he was under pressure and on his right foot. Ronaldo fucking diving again.

And there is so long left Starving children could use food, doesn't mean they're gonna get it.

Please don't jinx it.

Woohoo, shot on goal!

I'd say this looks more like Roeder tactics than Allardyce tactics
