Hope we'll get an early goal. If that's the case we can get a draw at least.

Exactly the same was said in our pre-season.

10 € on us to draw (live bet).

Given and Harper both on the bench because of 2 young goalkeepers.

Was always gonna be Taylor starting today after Pardew was saying that he 'wants him'.

Have another 8 € on us to win. 1 € on Joey FGS.

Despite the fact that he's been so good at the right - I'm happy to see Barton given another chance throught the middle. He wants to play there, so there's a good chance he'll want to show how good he is at CM.

Good start that. Returns around 26€.

I have 6 € on West Ham to win. 1 € on Wigan, Bolton (both to win), Blackburn, Fulham, Villa (all to draw) 10 € on Man Utd, Blackburn (dnb), Bolton, us (dnb)

In Germany it is. Well, at least there's a conference where they'll switch between all the matches so I won't miss any goal today. Happy that 2 games have already been called off so they'll show more of our game.

Aye me too. It would mean I'd have to spend more time in the house. My TV is in my house, so that wouldn't change anything.

No. Nay. Nein. Cheers.

Hope this won't get called off. Would 'destroy' the boxing day for me.

Aye, but we have Barton now.

That's the line-up I would like to see. Shola surely can't start considering how poor he's been recently.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/eng_prem/9300504.stm Thats the line-up from the WBA game? Aye, that's right. That team would have never beaten Liverpool 3-1, though.

From the bbc match preview. Isn't there something wrong with line-up and subs we supposedly had against Liverpool? http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/eng_prem/9300504.stm

Yeah, I've actually switched the TV off the time it was 5-1. Tempted to switch it on again now.

Sorry, but this is the first thing I read after seeing the score Yeah, I know. Was a bit stupid to think Bruno Labbadia could 'do a Pardew' and win his first match.

Similar to FIFA's end of year awards (Performances from Jan-Dec), lets do an N-O one. Nominate for each category. Add your own categories and I'll add them to the first post. Team of the Year: Inter Milan Player of the Year: Wesley Sneijder Young Player of the Year: Thomas Müller Goalkeeper of the Year: Joe Hart (mostly because he keeps Given on the bench) Defender of the Year: Lucio Midfielder of the Year: Sneijder Forward of the Year: Rooney till his injury against Bayern, Carroll after that Most Improved Player of the Year: Andy Carroll Year to Forget: Rafa Benitez Player(s) to look out for in 2011: Andy Carroll, Tim Krul Manager of the Year: Jose Mourinho Best League: Premier League Worst League: SPL Most Improved League: Bundesliga Favourite Football Moment of the Year: Plymouth away with all the fans on the pitch after the match Biggest Football Disappointment of the Year: England's World Cup Most Shocking Moment of the Year: Hughton getting the sack

The same for me. Don't know why, but I quite like him and admire him for what he's done over the years. Sadly, he's done it with a wrong club, though.

Have a bit money on Stuttgart (dnb). The fact that they have a new manager now makes me quite hopefull.

Didn't even Keegan wanted to get rid of Jose?

'Derek Lambezi' :lol: 'Coco the clown' Thank God he did get ill... he might still would be our manager now.

What a great match that was to be at SJP. Atmosphere was fucking immense, best I've ever had while being at a match in any stadium.
