  1. This looks like something out of Street Fighter.
  2. It's live from St James park, just talking about Blackpool for now.
  3. God loads of respect for Holloway after them comments on himself. Kept grounded.
  4. Hitting the post or bar counts as off-target. Can anyone remember the mass argument on GSS about this? Got really heated, the initial argument lasted about 10mins with Stelling trying to move it on but couldn't, then it was mentioned for about 6 months after. Was a totally different panel, when they used to chop and change all the time. Can't believe there's ever even a debate. The idea of an on-target shot is that it was going in before it was intercepted by a defender or the goalkeeper. Just because hitting the woodwork seems like a big chance or whatever doesn't mean that it's on-target. Has anyone ever thought that if it hits the post and goes out it should be a corner? I have, it seems fair. Thats a bit silly. Whats your thinking behind it out of interest, is the post part of the opposition?
  5. Surely the nicknames are from when they were players and they just stuck?
  6. Both of Accringtons' goals were rockets and the opportunity came from poor clearances. There's very little that Krul could have done in fairness.
  7. I can see Hughton being like Moyes, but likeable.
  8. To be fair he was about to make a sub and then Carroll scored. It would have been daft to change the team afterwards and with the momentum we got. He doesn't rush with them though, you're right in essence.

    Go on then, get started.
  10. That's Hughton's biggest test imo. To drop one of his favourites (it seems to be the case, at least) with Nolan. To drop Barton instead of Nolan would be just crazy. It's not a case of dropping his 'favourite', it's dropping the club captain. I was expecting him to play on Wednesday as well to be fair so there's a chance he will be dropped, but I reckon it's much more likely that he'll be accommodated elsewhere in the midfield. This in itself brings a whole host of problems, assuming we stick with the 4-5-1. In the central (DM/CM/AM) role we have: Tiote Guthrie Barton Ben Arfa Nolan Smith Gosling (almost forgot about this fella) That's an extraordinary amount of central players.. all of which have shown that they have the ability at the top level. Obviously with some it's just being once in a blue moon, such as Smith, and others have only just started to show their potential in the squad, such as Barton. Then we have full (current) Internationals that will almost expect a starting role, such as Tiote & Ben Arfa. I would think that a 4-3-3 could potentially solve a few problems, as Ben Arfa could be played wide right or left in an attacking role and that would give 3 central slots to the other ones, but apparently HBA was told he would be given a central playmaker role.. so who knows! I can't imagine the effect that having Keane in the side would have with selection.
  11. I don't mind him, he goes out to wind up supporters and always manages it. I remember him doing it at Derby away last season when he kept turning his head around. Blatantly hates the toon, like.
  12. I'm pretty sure he'll go about 10 games without scoring at some point in this season, if he doesn't then he'll have turned into a genuinely quality player in like 6 months. Generally young strikers lack consistency in their game.
  13. I think I'll wait until we're an established PL side and we've shown steady progression thanks. No doubt there'll be some ridiculous stunts pulled between now and the end of the season.

    Egidio Arévalo

    Well yes. It was supposedly either this lad or Tiote.
  15. I didn't watch the Prem last year.. is that Wolves strongest line-up?
  16. Hmm, you'd think he wouldn't be in the squad at all if he was going to be leaving the club in the next few days.. we'll see.

    Nee worries Keefaz, him and Tiote both speak French. Coincidence? Hmmmm...

    Credit where credit has to go. I think Derek deserves some for that transfer. NEVER!
