This.

What's the point in these threads? Kinnear and Hughton (now Kinnear has influenced him with his SHOLA IS KING crap) will never chop the 4-4-2, we saw that against Stoke at home when we fucked it up by putting players in the wrong position instead of simply removing a central midfielder and playing another striker. Hughton tried the KK 4-3-3 against Hull at home and it fucking stank, because Shola was in it. The closest I've seen to a tactical change this season was the 4-6-0 we adopted away at Chelsea.

He might if there was a "if you keep us up, a guaranteed contract worth £x for x years" clause.

How often have we had such games this season and blown it ? All we can hope is that the players are aware that this is our last chance to pick up points. Those games (ignoring Hull which obviously was in the Keegan fallout) for me were Man City, Wigan, Stoke and Sunderland - barring the derby game which was recently, those games were all way way before Christmas, with a long way to go.

Stayed at a 6. Boro and WBA look out of it.

We had a good manager, now we don't simple as. Ashley is gambling big time and it's down to luck, not skill if he wins. How ironic that our Managing Director runs a casino.

Because it's that magical hour after the full time whistle has gone, when there are about fifty new threads covering about four different subjects.

Harper Beye Coloccini Bassong Enrique RTaylor Nolan Butt Gutierrez Lovenkrands Martins Considering how fucking woefully anonymous our "captain" was today, I'd go for a sort of 4-1-4-1 with Lovenkrands floating in front of Martins upfront.

Jesus Skirge, you don't hang about do you?

Stephen says: here come the influx of new threads on n-o

Hmm.

Sounds like we're really sustaining some posession here.

Probably was Dave, he's pretty desperate.

Shola coming on.

Sick of hearing about the bastard egg chasing.

We need to remove Owen and get either Lovenkrands (pace) or Carroll (physicality) on soon.

Depending on what Hughton does/says at half time, one team could be on the end of a colossal beating.

"That's good professional defending" according to the 5live co commentator Wigan leading through N'Zogbia

Was probably a three-yard pass from Butt that he sliced tbh Decky.

Butt

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES STEVEN FUCKING FRANKENSTIEN!

Being turned over by Hull for the third time this season. Unbelievable.

Portsmouth winning at Boro.

This is so fucking depressing.
