  1. An utter disgrace. He's picked 3 people who have spent the last year acting like cunts over the ultimate professional, and who is one of the faces of the entire games. And when people say things like 'The right decision for footballing reasons', you wait to see who are some of the U23 midfielders selected, I bet a 40 year old Beckham will still be better than most of them.

    For the club accountants it's going to be like kicking an 80 a day fag habit.
  3. I put a fiver on him FGS at 28/1 earlier. Feeling strangely more confident now.
  4. Top Scorers Lewandowski 20/1 Kerzakhov 33/1 Huntelaar 18/1 Benzema 10/1 All £1 e/w Poland and Russia to win £8 at 4/1 Poland to win and Lewandowski anytime £4 at 11/4 Germany to win the tournament £10 at 6/1 (paddypower enhanced)
  5. Listened to that whole show with a huge smile on my face. Such a great time to be a fan!
  6. Hoilett and Moses are genuinely the only ones we should be looking at. There is no point spending the money it would take to sign players from those teams. Someone like Rodallega would probably cost about 7,8 Million, when we are better off sticking with Shola.
  7. I honestly think people are being generous with the ratings. Maybe I'm generally too generous, I don't know. But the way I see it against Blackburn they will pump long balls at you for the entire game, which results in the inevitable scrambled hoof clearances. That is the right thing to do, but it means it's very hard for other players to get into the game, or to get a sustained period of pressure/possession. They hoof the balled up the pitch all night AND managed to dominate possession for long periods. They out played us everywhere. We were total unadulterated shite. I've never seen a team fuck up so many chances, and they did fuck the majority of them up, rather than it being anything heroic that our boys did. We were well on top up until we scored, and then just sat back for 80 minutes. Almost like we wanted to invite pressure because we didn't take them seriously as a threat. They missed some sitters, but there was a few 'heroic' moments, Coloccinis block of Modeste in the first half, Simpson off the line, Kruls Penalty save, Perch's diving block in the second. We were very disjointed but my point is I think playing against Blackburn does that to most teams.
  8. Can it really be the wrong position though, if it has saved us a goal? strikes me as exceptional positioning.
  9. I honestly think people are being generous with the ratings. Agree. I think the median should be ~5 I'll be honest, have always used FM as a guide.

  11. So disappointing to see all of the ridiculously row ratings. We won 2-0 ffs, some people were giving consensus higher ratings for the team after the Fulham match. Get some perspective. The main target as usual is Simpson, who actually had one block of the line, a number of good interceptions that he put out for corners and throw-ins. This does not constitute an awful performance.
  12. Krul - 8 Simpson - 6.5 Williamson - 7 Colo - 8 Santon - 6 Guthrie - 7 Raylor - 7 HBA - 4 Jonas - 6 Best -6 Shola - 4 Perch - 7 Pardew - 8

    Good half-time sub, sometimes you've just got to grind them out. And Blackburn aren't exactly Barcelona when it comes to creating clear cut chances. If you can resort them to playing pinball in the box I'll trust my defence and take my chances. Played.

    Norwich City - Always liked them Hitchin Town - Where I'm from, always follow the (usually negative) results. Rapid Bucharest - Went to a game in Bucharest, fans were unreal, never heard anything like it. Not to mention was wearing the football top i bought and was approached by a former Rapid youth player in Asda. MK Dons, Alfreton Town, Roma - FM Reasons
  16. Sinclair, Ashley Williams, Pilkington, Morison, Vorm,
  17. Didn't Kevin Kilbane play like 100 games in a row or something stupid? I think Shane Ferguson will be alright either way.
