That Maddoni bloke sounds like a complete star like.

How was it handball? Never in a million years was that deliberate. I might be wrong, but as far as my understanding goes it doesn't need to be deliberate to be deemed a hand ball. In Fifa's Laws of the Game 2005, Law 12 says a free-kick or penalty will be awarded if a player "handles the ball deliberately (except for the goalkeeper within his own penalty area)".

Bottled it Cech. Should've scored that Sturridge.

Improvement on Phil Brown and 'Big Sam'.

He's still nowhere near ready to start in centre midfield mind. Would love to see him get a chance further up the pitch with the protection of two centre mids behind him.

This bloke is far too good for us. Absolute goal machine, he has everything.

Better than paying the useless c*** till June. I'd rather keep him here until the end, but ban him from training as well as obviously not picking him for any squads, first team or reserves. You wanted to waste our money for 2 years while you rotted away instead of saving a modicum of dignity and going to play football? Fine, you can waste another 6 months of our money and get so out of match practice that when you return for another team, you'll manage an unprecedented 2 sending offs in one match. No idea how you'll manage it, but I'm sure you will. Now get the f*** out of my f***ing office. You money grubbing twonk. Anyways, he'll probably be here come the end of the season. Hasn't he been rumoured to be f***ing off, with the club taking a massive financial hit in some form, every transfer window? As if he'd care about any of that

As long he's not an adult using a kids ticket there'll be no bother. You trying to insinuate John P's a pedo? Just to clarify, that's not what the P stands for and my girlfriend is not a child.

Lad on loan from Spurs gets booked playing for Norwich and picks up a one-match ban. The next match is against Spurs, therefore he's ineligble for that match anyway, yet the ban will be served, according to the commentator. How ridiculous is that?

He's been alright actually. I meant collectively.

Don't worry lads, once the thread hits 1000 everything will be sweet.

Erm yes you have been consistent Nigel. Consistently shite.

Born in 1978 according to wiki. Yeah I meant 33, I was half asleep when I read .com. Point still stands mind!

.com reckons Geremi is 33 today. There is no way on Earth that he's a day under 40 like.

Hope he really gets forward if he does start.

Should do. They've never said owt when an adults used my brother's ticket like.

Why does he need to play on the right?

Probably been whooshed but I'm going to stick my neck out and say Arfster could play there, he has a little bit of history in that role. Love how comfortable Santon has shown himself to be on the ball and how looks to go forward as soon as he gets it. Very refreshing. I mean, obviously Ben Arfa would be fine but the point that was being made was that we were disadvantaged by having two opposite-footed wide players on the left side. He unfortunately doesn't solve that problem. (Unless I'm stupid and Ben Arfa is actually left-footed.) Plastic fan tbh.

The bit on the half way line in the second half where he dived and caught the ball was hilarious.

I can't remember him getting up at all in the second half like. First time I seen him was when he was going to come on.

Did the whole thing not happen at 10pm? 'after a wet night in town'. Pussies.

not just me then. Same. Knees gone. I too thought this. He looked absolutely knackered!

Goodbye Stoke.
