Oh yes, I still double take when he's on screen

Just a doubt, so maybe not too bad. Unless Pardew says that, in which case he'll be out for months.

5ft 6 defensive midfielder. Just what we need If there's a set of Portuguese kids books named after him, things get really creepy!

I'm ashamed of football today. This is a pathetic decision by a pathetic organisation.

Absolutely seething, this is the most unjust thing I've ever seen in football. We need to sue the hell out of everyone. Our FA are saying these malicious assaults are absolutely fine and that sickens me. They're so corrupt. Also, that linesman needs sacking - players wont feel safe if he thinks that was fine and normal.

He's had his 2 months, he cant complain.

BOOM

Rumours that Blackburn have sacked Michael Appleton. Its about time they had a new manager, really.

Retirement couldnt happen to a nicer cunt. Glad he's leaving our sport.

Great news for Steven, very nervous about potential injuries though. There seems to be a new one every day.

Douglas says 4 weeks out, which is bad news. Although we dont have a winnable game for 3 weeks.

Wow

The Guardian say: The club are understood to be examining their legal options with a view to potentially taking action if Haïdara is sidelined for a significant period. The initial signs are, though, that the damage may not be as bad as first feared. Probably just speculating, though.

If suing him is possible, take the thug to the cleaners. I'm worried about what legal action implies though

He's the next To Madeira or Mascio.

We were busy tying our laces in November/December.

Yep, although I don't think anyone has mentioned Graham Poll's opinion. He thinks Halsey should retire. Apparently McManaman has done this sort of thuggery before, I'll try and dig out the link. Also, has anyone read about Dave Whelan's interview?

Golly, liverpool are watching him? Argh darn it, I'm proper scared now.

They can fuck off with that noon bullshit. They put North London derbies at 4pm, Manc derbies on a Monday night but keep giving us ' drunken neanderthals' the early slot.

Are you arguing with Dr Pardew?

There was loads of Darts Debuchy until the injury. Shame. Grown to love the Yanga-Mbiwa chant though.

Pardew's a doctor, signing players isn't his job.

Reprehensible comments from Whelan. Tell you what, forget about Sunderland, QPR, Saggy Redknapp or those Aston Villa fans - I'd love Wigan to go down more than anyone else. They're a scummy little club that need to fuck off forever.

Wasn't Whelan's career ended by a horrific tackle? If so, those comments are pathetic.

We'll stay up but I'll not exactly crack open the champagne. If it wasnt for Europa, this season would be a complete embarassment. Cant wait for August!
