Think I'll pre-order that like.

Someone on the stairs on the way out of SoS yesterday says "it wouldn't have happened if Pardew was still here." Couldn't help myself and said "Aye, it would've been 3-0." Some of our fans man.

Someone's hacked the second quiz and changed Medowlane's new image to be a slum in India or something.

FYP.

Sounds familiar. Not the excuses of McClaren himself in fairness, he does a relatively good job of not acting like Football's Charlie Sheen in his interviews. One good attribute for McClaren is that players have legitimately improved while playing for him, and he's a good coach. Derby fan at work said similar. The issue they face is they don't have a replacement for Chris Martin or anyone close to it and have a very small squad - they're down 7 players. Reckons they've been playing a left winger up top in place of Martin since he was injured. Chap actually reckons they've been class this season but obviously its just petered out. Rates McClaren highly too.

Superb.

I'd like to see someone investigate these figures because there's a cat away somewhere.

Definitely the one to the left of the badge. Just google Gary Speed signature.

Watched it last night too. Thought it was very good.

Arsenal by -2.0 goals is 9/4 on Paddy Power. Worth a tenner.

Lifted straight from his legit FB page. Tara then.

Wouldn't be a transfer window without a Santon back to Italy rumour or a Sky Sports Italy link too

Agree, Tor! is a great read. Love learning about other football cultures and how it started. Just got: Johnny Cook: The Impossible Dream by Ian Macintosh. Love his writing style and his little sections in The Blizzard are a great laugh. http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/1908940972/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&colid=3IVA9Z4XQ8CAK&coliid=I1595N5TW7D9IF Football Fiction but he tends to intersperse it with little football references throughout.

If only...

Cheap as chips too considering how financially fucked a lot of the teams are.

We used to use the 'how high can the keeper jump = the bar' rule.

I hope they stand on an upturned plug. I despair at times.

Watched far too much La Liga this season. The standard of football is superb. If you compared a lower table fixture to a PL lower table fixture there'd be no contest. If anything it highlights how poor the 'greatest league in the world™' really is.

PL record I think. Could be bollocks like but sounds about right.

Indeed. Tiresome. Someone said earlier that during a season, prior to this, the longest it ever took a club to appoint a replacement (confirm caretaker etc) was 15 days or so. We're onto day 18. Record breaking incompetence even if they end up appointing someone half decent.

Started on Facebook from someone saying their mate told them, from what I can see. Spread from that, as this usual shite does. Nowt concrete/believable. At least with the Garde rumours there's substance.

Raval Morrison followed the clubs Instagram account and they followed back apparently. Lad seems a knob.

Haha nah he follows me. Had a few exchanges previously but not in a bad way. Made it abundantly clear that I'm not having a go at him more at Ryder being a chump.
