He's a disgrace but the bigger disgrace is that he was given the job in the first place. His exit (and, more importantly, the exit of the fat oaf who gave him that job) can't come soon enough. Looking forward to his lifting excuses post-match.

*proactive.

I know I haven't been following the match tonight that closely (start-stop footage partly to blame), but I couldn't believe they said that.

WILL SOMEBODY PLEASE THINK OF THE TAP-INS?

You almost forget just how good that strike was. Outrageous, man.

Rejecting your own proposal is quite the power-play.

If they're oh so genuine in about their desire to help the lower leagues, then why can't they all immediately agree to a similar 'bail-out' for all EFL clubs without any sort of restructure? Edit: I hadn't seen the above story.

It's just straight up blackmail. It's been mainly about money for some time now, but this is so brazen. I see there's a desire from the 'elite' (mainly that cunt Agnelli) to have UEFA competitions played on weekends, too. It makes you want it to all come crashing down even more so than you already did.

Fifteen quid.

He did look dangerous. Hopefully he can kick on now as he could be a real asset.

He's a good striker and I'm glad he's hit the ground running.

ASM is a wizard.

That was the pass that immediately sprang to mind when I read those quotes. What a little cretin.

It's embarrassing watching Carroll lumbering around up front.

This is an outrageous take. You've seen the way Carroll's arm moves as he lands too, right? It's almost identical.

Focusing on the lateness of the challenge rather than the (quite obviously deliberate) elbow to the jaw.

Has there been a jammier bugger sat in our dugout?

It's gonna be another 0 shots on target 'performance' isn't it?

The shackles are off.

I hope that one day we're a proper football club again and no longer have to put up with Jonjo Shelvey and his shite use of the ball.
