Reminds me of Mr Burns selling the power plant to the Germans, them discovering how fucked it is and selling it back on the cheap. "Ooooh Dekka, I'm so scared! Freddy Shepherd, Freddy Shepherd is after me!" "Haha, you're killing me sir, stop."

That cannot be real.

He looks about 10 years older than he is in those interviews.

Major kick in the balls for the media outlets who invented the rumours and the ones who ran with them too.

They're both a lot quicker than they're given credit for.

That whole bit was stupid. Giving Carroll only 1 heading better than Bent, fucking shite.

Suits Hugh, Sir!

8 subs is pretty optimistic.

Very harsh on Krul that, Ronaldo. He's not been brilliant but there's been enough to suggest he's learning and he's coped well in a decent percentage of the games he's played for the first team.

Arsed Shitty Arsed Fat Cunts

WBA beat them at home, they beat Birmingham by the odd goal in three and it took a last-minute goal to sink West Ham. We should absolutely have a go.

Proof that not every mackem is totally clueless:

is that yours? Amazing.

They had fuck all today - overhit crossfield passes towards their left flank and "get on the end of that Benty" hoofs from the centre-halves were literally their only point of attack. Bruce must be a real worry for the mackems at the moment. He picked a team to not get beat and we picked a team to win, and it showed. In fact, they were more soft centred in the middle of the park than many of the Championship teams that pitched up at St. James last year. Exactly what Zenden and Riveros have to do to get a game is anyone's guess. Cattermole looked totally overawed by the whole occasion and Henderson was dogshit. Oh, and that brings me onto Welbeck ahead of Gyan. Fucking baffling, no other way to describe that. Barton played some absolutely sublime measured balls over the top today, and Carroll or Shola got on the end of them and retained possession more often than not. Our long ball game is so much better and well-considered than the Brucey hit and hope tactics that have a lot of mackems very disgruntled at the moment. If you ask me, they have two main problems (discounting their shitty fanbase, ofc). The manager, and the lack of experience within the squad. They've the makings of a comfortable mid-table outfit but those two things are sorely lacking at the moment. The decision from Bruce to appoint Cattermole as captain is stupid too imo - too much, too soon. He looked totally starstruck today.

First thing I said when I saw Shola step up was "Fair play to Nobby Nolan, he wants to get his hat-trick properly from open play".

2 wins from 2 suits. It needs to stay.

Fair one like. Have far more time for the mackems who hold their hands up. Some of the ones on RTG are pathetic. Blaming the ref ffs.

:lol:

Always had confidence that they would bully the fuck out of Bumble and Turner today.

Still travelling last I heard. It was last seen stopping for coffee at Scotch Corner in 2009.

Can we get him back in every time we play the mackems? Hell, every time we play? He was hilarious, almost as good as Shola at penalties and quite clearly our 'lucky mascot'.

I make it 5 or 6, depending whether you count that one nufc.com always denote as a Caldwell o.g.

Our corner tactic since about January seems to have been "find tall centreback at far post for cushioned header". We did it with Fitz Hall and we're doing it with Williamson. It works very well.

Oh good, little extra bonus point for Carroll. Criminal that Barton gets a mere two points there for such a class performance.

Wonder where Crumpy's got to.
