If we don't get beat here I'll be super confident we'll finish top 6. Even a defeat and I'll still be reasonably confident.

Great ball by Rooney there, Young ran way too early though.

What a shit error by Hangeland. 1-0 Man Red

Pogrebnyak looks to be a good addition, I remember a few on here saying Zamora out and him in was utter madness but it's worked imo.

'West Brom's a shithole, I wanna go home"

The second goal yesterday reminded me of that Rooney and Ronaldo counter-attacking goal that won goal of the season a few years ago. If it was a Sky 4 team that executed that counter-attack then it'd be getting so much more praise.

Pard Pard Binks

Shame he had no idea how to correctly manage squad players such as Best, Guthrie, Perch and Ryan Taylor. All of them have looked spectacularly better under Pardew. Guthrie's performances away to West Brom this season and last season (despite being 3rd choice CM in both managers pecking orders) have been like chalk and cheese.

He looked absolutely shagged after about 65 minutes like. Had we not needed to replace Coloccini and Cisse I like to think he'd have come off, he's played so many 90 minute games lately. He needs a rest at some point.

Aye. The same Brighton team that knocked Sunderland out of the League Cup, you fucking thick twat.

Thought the WBA goal was half of Krul, half of Williamson. Other than that, he was solid and looked dependable enough. I'm hoping the media interviews he did may give him some confidence too.

Excellent once again yesterday.

He did say pre-WBA that the Norwich game was just 'get the win' and that we could use the ball better against West Brom. We certainly did that, an excellent performance and the win was well defended at the end, another useful cameo from Shola. Spot on Pards

He was rinsed a few times by their left winger. Did areet by his own pits of hell standards.

Pleased enough with that.

Couldn't be arsed to watch the Old Firm, wish I had now. Sounds class

Would love to see us get battered for 90 minutes then Perchy to hit a 35-yard exocet missile into the top corner, game ends 0-1

Why does Shearer always fap himself daft over the mackems? If it's his way of proving he's a good pundit it isn't working.

37,000 at the Stadium of Light. Packed to the rafters as usual.

As much as I hate seeing the mackems win, it's soothed by seeing Mark Hughes losing.

Lee Dixon. Fucking cunt

Apparently Given gets beaten from long range by Arteta. That's very unlike Shay, barely ever got beaten from miles out when he was here. It only happened about every single fucking game.

Oh goody. imagine that ffs. Hope that's just the usual paper guff.

Can't wait to see Crouchy's goal again. Ball doesn't even hit the floor
