Yes.

Are you actually serious or just being a daft dickhead? I seriously want Owen in the squad. And I want Brian Ching in yours.

Emmanuel Petit.

Nicolas Anelka

And even funnier if they kept him on.

Avram Grant looks delighted, good for him.

Could just be because they've just won a classic game? As I was saying I don't think he'd stay for the game if he knew he was off. If you got told you'd been sacked at the start of your shift, you wouldn't finish it- you'd tell your boss to go f*** himself. At most he's heard theres a press conference and assumes the worst. Wasn't Southgate told before the game he would be sacked after it and managed the team despite this? I dunno if he was told or not, but they certainly did say afterwards that they were going to sack him regardless of the game's outcome.

Spence, you always seem to win. You bastard!

Bingo. Was always out of his depth. For me, it's pretty funny how they sacked the ideal chequebook manager (Sven) and then replaced him with someone more suited to the pre-takeover City (stricter budgets) and gave him loads to spend. Having said that though, he never had full control of transfers anyway, did he? The owners gave him £50m and sent him to play in the sand with all the other simpletons whilst they went off chasing Villa, Gerrard, Terry, Torres, Kaka etc from all the big boys.

Aye you've just passed that onto Blyth. Just got caught in it, really shitty weather. There was slight drizzle as I went across to the shop for some cans, I was in there about 10 minutes and it got about ten times worse as I came back out. Had to sprint home, and nearly slipped on some black ice.

Starting to agree with you looking at those pictures. I bet what you said about the defending is right. They'll know that a club with top-4 aspirations simply can't leak goals they way that they do.

and Millwall just compound my misery.

Hughes looks like he's just been beaten 4-0, despite their thrilling win. He's gone imo.

BRISTOL CITY YOU CUNTS

Been really really heavy snow here in Whitley Bay for about 2 hours, light snow for about an hour before that.

BRISTOL CITY you wankers 1-1, losing me a bet at the death

2-0

Nolan

Frozen pitches fucked my bets.

Won this on Wednesday, get in. Almost £30. This weekend: Bristol City Scunthorpe Charlton Gillingham £3 = £42.45 Blackpool Leeds Hartlepool £2 = £24

No, he can fuck off and we can do better.

the inevitable is coming idiot

Hart is a good appointment for them, I reckon he'll get them into the top half easily. Going through too many manager, though. Briatore needs to have some fucking conviction in the blokes he's appointing.

Bowyer as he was free (well, they paid a nominal fee). Dunne (who I slated) and James Collins (who I said was good) have both been class as well.
