There are ways of evolving the FA Cup without killling the romance. Seeding would destroy it. We need to stay away from that. No problem with rounds happening in midweek, as long as its from the 5th round onwards. Also have no problems with scrapping replays, as long as its from the 5th round onwards. By then, all the little clubs are out and nobody cares about Chelsea vs Liverpool in a replay.....just end it on the day. Like the idea of a Champions League place, but that'll just make us less likely to win the cup as the big clubs will make sure they try.

That is incredible

Gonna stray from selling Tiote or Enrique because that is despressing. OUT: Xisco £2m, Routledge £2m, Kuqi (free), Campbell (free) IN: Main striker, Young striker, Centre Back (Douglas), Central Midfielder, Freebies (Larsson, Marveaux) I voted NET spend of £15m-£20m

We'll stumble unspectacuarly to 13th/14th place. Which is fine. Need to win soon though, or it might get arse-clenchy.

I thought the Tiote Turn was a good thing? Hopefully he'll have a few tiny flaws that put the big clubs off him, yet still be magnificent for us.......we can hope!

So Gervinho is a very good friend of Tiote's? That makes the signing even more imperative. Can't he play on the right wing too?

Allardyce would move abroad and just shout loudly at foreigners instead of learning the lingo. "BALL-O HOOF-O TO TARGET MAN-O"

Every club is ultimately a feeder club to Real Madrid (except Barcelona). Even when CRonaldo, Kaka, Zidane etc are at European giants, Real is where they aspire to be, unfortunately.

That Santos team was pretty good: Robinho, Diego, Elano, Alex, Leo and Renato.

We should definitely try a 'David James' with him sometime. If we were secure enough in defence, it'd seriously be worth a go.

"Straight away I'd turned the tables & put him on the back foot." .....is brilliant.

well thats a letdown. not funny in the slightest. i thought brucey had something much wittier....

Well we stopped the rot against Blackburn, thats a start. I'd have took a point at 3pm, but it sounds like they were there for the taking. The draws are starting to stack up and we need a win soon, but having said that I think we'll be completely fine. Still nervously look at the table though - its a habit!

I can't help feeling that if Bendtner (with the same abilities) was a nice guy, people would think he's brilliant. If you can look past the arrogance and the dislikability, he's a very good footballer.

Ameobi is the human boomerang

good news .....unless you've just put him in your fantasy league team. awesome.

3-0 defeat

TheBig_Sam It's the same thing every time I bloody listen to it. I'm dancing my perineum off to 'Lets Dance' by Lady Gaga and that shite fucking rapping comes on. And I'm all like, "Who the fuck is this cunt?" And the missus or Dexter Fletcher or whoever happens to be with me is all, "That's Akon. He's dope." And I'm all like, "He's a fucking minge, is what he is. Get him off my boom box before I set fire to it. He's ruining a pop gem, here." And then I get accuse of being a "musical dinosaur". And I'm all like, "Can a musical dinosaur move like this?" And then I'm all breakdancing like a fucking epileptic pimp & everyone is in awe of my fly moves & soon there's no mention of fucking Akon. He ruins that fucking song, the uselss twat. He's the Arsenal goalkeeper of that song. And now I find out it's not even Akon. It's some cunt called Colby. Colby?? Who's called Colby? He sounds like a right posh twat. I owe Akon an apology. He'll get it as soon as I make things right with Michael Buble. I said terrible, terrible things to that man. And the song is, of course, 'Just Dance'. Not 'Let's Dance'. That Colby bastard made me so furious, I'm mixing up my Gagas with my Bowies.

Ahhh man, thats a good appointment for them. I just want one of our relegation rivals to do something shit like lose a match or appoint a rubbish manager - maybe one day they will.

Just relived THAT Rivaldo hat trick against Valencia in 2001. What a player he was.

The Sun say its Hodgson http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/sport/football/3405313/Roy-Hodgson-will-be-named-West-Brom-boss-next-week.html

for a friendly as well? whats the point the FA just become more and more of a joke, they're incredible

Bergkamp went down in my estimation when he did that. Was right infront of where I used to sit n all. http://t1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQ0z_irWh1wBPkRbhxHo6EG5mHrwl4g-tiRA1YR3K6E6H-nYmHJPQ

Man, some of the newbies around here It beggars belief.

Would definitely take £8m, although if thats an opening offer I'm sure we could squeeze a bit more. My only concern is how it'll effect Enrique.
