Motherfucker.

Doesn't say how long the deal is, but I would guess given our position we're getting more money. Hopefully get some more attention from them as well.

I was going to post this exact scenario last night, but couldn't be bothered and just went to bed. If I could write a script this is exactly how it would happen.

Feel bad for Hughton. Hope he has a decent enough team next season to make a run. Come on Blackpool!

The art of a poor header from N'Daw.

I'm getting fucking pissed at Birmingham's strikers. Stay the fuck onside.

Would certainly take Redmond. Does Birmingham still have financial issues or have they sorted that out?

Think you'll find this rate of return isn't far off the norm.

From last August... Guess he didn't stick though.

Tiote and Ba are the only big names I can see leaving. Won't spend a second worrying about Krul, Cisse, or HBA.

From the UEFA web site... The winners of these 35 ties [third qualifying round] are joined in the play-off round by another 41 clubs; the 15 losing teams from the UEFA Champions League third qualifying round, the domestic cup winners from the associations ranked 1 to 17, the third-placed league sides from the associations ranked 7 to 9, the fourth-placed team from the associations ranked 4 to 6 and the fifth-placed teams from the associations ranked 1 to 3. The 38 victorious sides from these two legs qualify for the UEFA Europa League group stage, and will be joined there by the ten losing sides from the UEFA Champions League play-off round.

Let's just focus on how amazing this is...

A win on Sunday would match 1993-94 and 2001-02 with nine away wins, the most we've had in the Premier League era. And 1993-94 had two extra away games. Unreal.

Henderson looks like he's just a complete and utter tool. Probably an awful person to spend time with.

This is just comical. Newcastle United - Minimum 5th Place

Do people think Podolski will be a success? Torn on him - can see it going either way.

If I was an Arsenal fan I would want a top-class partner for Vermaelen with Koscielny and Mertesacker as 2nd choice.

Have they gotten anyone but Podolski?

Probably around the time he realized he made a mistake.

I can't believe we could qualify for the CL on Sunday. Really just fucking ridiculous if I may say so. If we finish 4th I won't be able to sleep for a week because of the CL final implications. Will really be terrible, but I'd be happy to have that to worry about.

Thought we played well. Just a few too many world class players to contend with. The only thing I'd question Pardew on is subbing Ben Arfa. I get why he did it - just not sure I agree with it. Other than that, a good effort and a fantastic season. We will still be in it on the final day (hopefully Villa can hold out for at least a point). They all looked gutted when the second goal went in. You can tell how much it means to the team. Love them all.

Can you imagine if he stayed and there was a stretch where both were on top form like we've seen at different times this season? Would be ridiculous.

I don't need a poll to tell me this is far and away the best football forum on the internet.

Surely it can be retagged as St James' Park? Not sure how to do it, but it must be possible. Just did it. Said changes will be made after it's reviewed. Probably not going to happen.

Any good places to get this season's third shirt discounted? Or do I need to wait another few weeks?
