Meanwhile, in the Pardew thread on the Palace Forum quote; I think in terms of transition, our vagina has been completely removed, we have at least one testicle, but much like Julian Clary with both arms in a cast, suspended above a Roman orgy in a sex swing circa Caligula's reign, the cock remains elusively out of reach. __________________ http://www.cpfc.org/forums/showthread.php?t=267744&page=47

Some Championship players have been in the England squad in the past. I recall Steve McClaren including David Nugent of Preston North End while being the England manager.

If Rafa Benitez could do a season in the Championship, then so should Townsend. For one thing I'm sure: one season in the Championship, coached by Rafa, would have done wonders for Townsend. He'd come back up in the Premier Leage as a better player claiming for a place in the England squad. Shelvey is going down that route and it wouldn't surprise me one bit if he is in the England squad one year from now.

My problem with Rafa is that you just know that Atsu will be benched again in the next match while Dummet, Colback and Diame will all keep their places.

Electrical storm incoming.

For what it's worth (abslutely nothing?), Atsu, Hanley, Yedlin, Mitrovic and Muprhy all wore black wests during today's traing session. As did Ritchie, Shelvey, Dummet and Lascelles.

Diame plays like a poor man's Sissoko.

We're going to play 46 league games this season. Four games in and we have already witnessed how tough and competitive this league is, we will get absolutely nothing for free. We were unable to have a proper go even at little Bristol City. I think we simply cannot prioritize the cups this season.

The whole team sounds fucking shocking.

Exactly. I guess opposition teams will have a go at us in a handfull of games only this season (eg. Norwich away). In all other matches, especially at SJP, they will sit back and try to take us on the counter.

It's sickening with that kind of display against a mediocre Fulham team. Coming off a good start was always important but we ended up doing the opposite. Very shaky defence, unbalanced midfield and way too lighweight up front. Rithcie and Hayden (1st half) only positives for me. Looking forward to seeing Mitro and Diame in this team; Gayle in this formation is going to be frustrating to watch at times.

Or a model wife?

11 out of 10, We are going to smash this league.

Christ. Here we are, fearing the likes of... Chelsea, Man City. Spurs, Man Utd, Liverpool... BRIGHTON AND HOVE ALBION Even more bizarre is that we are going into this thing with Rafa Benitez as our manager.

Absolutely this season is imperative we get promoted and some of the guys we've signed this year it doesn't matter as i think most will be dropped down to squad players for a premier league team <b>my biggest worry is if we don't make it this season does Rafa stick around for a second year in this division i have my doubts</b> Financially we are the Manchester City of the Championship. Considering the investments and all the incoming players so far; would we want him to stick around for a second season if he is unable to get us promoted on the first attempt?

Chaves or Carlos?

Tiki Rafa Earth calling guys, the 15 passes were never officially confirmed by NUFC.

By the look of his celebration Janmaat doesn't strike med as a player heading for the exit door.

Indeed, but very very sloppy defendig from the Lokeren lot. They all have their eyes on the ball and nothing else. Horrific.

I think we'll buy at least one more midfielder if when Sissoko joins Wijnaldum on the exit list.

Paul Brayson, 2-0 from the penalty spot.
