Mike absolutely raped Towelie there.

Even for you, that's an incredibly fuckwitted and ill-timed post. There you go, I've bitten, hope you're happy.

With this coming out about 2 hours prior to the Swansea game, it should have been called off imo. There's Shay his former team-mate, Williams, Allen, Taylor, Collins in the Wales setup, and even lifelong Toon fan Danny Graham - it affects too many people, it's still far too raw. Of course, Sky are a profitable organisation and that speaks for itself, sadly.

Steve Harper. Steven Taylor made his debut in Speed's last season too, I think?

You what? NUFC.com listed that as 66/1 or something pre-match. Unless they had Ba first, 66/1..?

I can only echo the sentiments of everybody else. This news has absolutely knocked me for six today, I'm absolutely gutted and I know my dad, who texted me to inform me, will be too. Speedo was a true professional and supremely talented, and will be sorely missed. I'm very sure that he'll get an excellent tribute at the Chelsea game next week.

You'd like to think that were we still in a CL/Europa spot by the time the window comes around, that Ashley would see the potential revenue from that as a reason not to start selling players like a tit. I speak of course from the dimension of sense, one that Ashley only seems to visit now and then.

Sherla's never taken an away penalty for us before, I don't think.

Didn't we all do the Formica jokes fairly recently? He's shit anyway fwiw.

Not today. I'm starting to find Steve Kean's misery entertaining; will allow for Stoke's win.

He isn't consistent enough to deserve all of the ridiculous praise he gets when he has one of his purple patches. When he's not in form, he's absolutely turd.

I seem to remember Ramage gifting Man U two goals once in a 2-0 loss.

No he wasn't. He was shite. Agreed. He had a few good moments but was largely shocking; decision making in particular was disgusting.

I know P-Lov and Macheda did shit all, but come on.

That Wigan fan is doing some class windups must be class if you're one of just 75 in the ground celebrating the winner like

He'd certainly carry on Bruce's good work, that's for sure.

Cabaye's booking was stupid, he may have bounced the ball angrily but he bounced it straight to the Man U throw in taker.

*rolled

I'm being reliably informed that he shouted "THE MASKED DEFENDER IS I... STEVEN TAYLOR!" at a bewildered Hernandez after he took the mask off.

Even for you that's pushing it.

Krul Simpson Coloccini Taylor Santon Ben Arfa Tiote Cabaye Sammy Ba Best Sadly, I'm under no illusions that Obertan will probably start. Lovenkrands, Perch and someone else dirge to come on as subs.

Someone on RTG has made a thread about Pardew's 'Geordie heroes' comment, pointing out that there's just Steven Taylor and Sammy in the side who are actual Geordies today. I for one am absolutely gutted at this revelation.

Results like today will help us in the contract negotiations. It's one thing for Pards to say we can compete with bigger sides - now we're starting to prove it (holding Arsenal, Spurs, Man U and playing well against Man City) .

I couldn't give a fuck what Ferguson says about us, he can be as bitter as he likes. We got a point from the game, he can fucking well deal with it.
