Just getting on to this now. Starting line-up looks so fucked. Butt and Smith again? Come on man FFS. R. Taylor for Simpson? Guthrie not in the squad at all? Hughton man, get your head screwed on right.

I bet other teams' fans really hate us being in this division. So far, we've pretty much taken one automatic promotion place away from every other team. The best a lot of other teams can hope for is a play-off place and that isn't all that appetizing to be playing for.

I always thought Sacha Kljestan would do well in Europe. And Schelotto is way too old these days. He's in Columbus to see out his career I think.

You'd think he'd be more of a replacement for the likes of Pienaar than Jo. He's not a striker. Debatable. He likes to play in a front-three and also plays striker for the USMNT.

Would love to be over there for this one with 7000 Geordies in Barnsley.

the traveling support went nuts when he scored too. he must've loved it.

DUTTY CUSTARD!!!

What weird logic. Pretty straight foward really, smith aint getting near the ball enough Smith not getting the ball may have nothing to do with Smith at all, that's why you're logic is flawed. There are 11 players on each side, not two.

What weird logic.

Oh fuck me. Butt on corners?

Alright, let's go lads!

He didn't want to go. He was giving many "life lines" to get out of the MLS but turned them all down. He's got no bottle when it comes to playing in Europe.

MLS season is over for the next few months.

Gotta love Lovenkrands accent.

Would've loved him to come on for the last 20 minutes.

Shola being back is the least of our worries. Having Butt in the middle is the biggest. What kind of formation are we going to have with Butt and Smith in the middle? There's no linking between the strikers and the back four now. Two defensive mids.

It's f***ing pathetic tbh. Understatement. Mind-boggling decision. we need to protest? Doesn't do anything.

Yeah would love to get a loan deal for him for the rest of the season come January. He'll be rather useless in the Prem but in the Championship you can't deny his record.

You think teams that win the league in N.Ireland and Wales should be in the Champions League ahead of the likes of Arsenal/Chelsea/whoever doesn't win the league that season? Pthmadog vs Barcelona and some N.Irish team vs Inter Milan...sounds amazing whilst Chelsea play Real Madrid and Arsenal vs Juventus in the UEFA Cup. Think this is a bad idea but each to their own. While you have a point, the thing I took most from it was the part bolded. I hate all of the group stages and what-not. They are designed just to give whatever teams are in the CL more TV revenue.

Not going to be a big miss if he's gone I'm afraid.

Are we dropping Nolan, then? He'll have a match suspension surely?

Nah, didn't even think about it, sad to say. But Landon Donovan is there!@#$@ He does a lot of commentary that I hear on FSC, but I guess he's also a pundit for ESPN now as well. It's about as weird as seeing Kevin Keegan being a pundit on the ESPN set too.
