Awesome. He's one of them small, nippy wingers who goes for the direct approach and doesn't fanny round with too many tricks. Hope he makes it.

Jonny Godsmark has impressed me every time I've seen him. Has he been offered a pro contract yet?

Would love to see Andy Reid try and defend against Oba Martins.

Chopra's celebration when he made it 1-1.

No, Shearer behaved admirably restraining himself because he had more sense than to go and get himself sent off.

Shearer had a habit of standing up to the players with "harder" reputations - there was that time he made sure Neil Lennon had mouth insurance.

According to de lads Keano is a right hard man on de training ground.

I'd take a draw right now.

All very meh rumours. Sure we've been linked with all of these players before as well. As usual, I'll wait until I see an interview with Keegan catergorically stating he wants these players before I believe anything.

I can't really remember what Owen was like in that game, but I remember Ameobi looked like he was on smack.

Enrique or Beye could surely deliver better corners than Geremi? In fact, fuck it. Let's get Harper to take them.

I was going to make an additional gag about you possibly being Alan Oliver, then I realised he'd be calling you.

I rang Arsene last night and asked him what he thought about this article. He said he couldn't possibly comment, because he didn't see it.

I've put a fiver on Defoe first goal, Newcastle to win - 55/1.

I'm sure it was former Pompey chairman Milan Mandaric who said: "There's only one way to become a millionaire in the football owners game - by starting off a billionaire." Wise words.

Ramage - a mess of everything

Should start playing AJ a bit more then

Allardyce's Pompey (a) team talk: (in the style of Football Manager 2008, where he learned the tricks of the trade) PLAYER PLAYER STATUS MANAGER'S TEAM TALK GK: S.

Allardyce didn't do any high-intensity training, apparently. And the reason no-one was fit was because hardly anyone was playing every game; N'Zogbia, Milner, Butt and Beye were probably the only players to play over 95% of the Allardyce reign, due to his shitty formation, constantly playing people out of position and shuffling the fucking pack every match.

Sick? You've only been here two minutes! Doesn't take a lot to make me sick. Also, I'll now use this opportunity my avatar is not a bloke being sick, they are having a curry fight. I know, i think i asked you when you first joined! Does make you have another take though, every fuking time! Yeah, yesterday I used the phrase "it makes me vomit when..." and someone retorted "not as much as your f****** avatar". I'm just setting the record straight.

Sounds like a good idea, I'm sick of reading threads saying we're signing Henry, Deco, Ronaldinho and players of that ilk.
