he did unsettle alonso with all the talk of signing gareth barry, from then on alonso felt pushed out a bit. had rafa not told all and sundry about wanting to sign barry, alonso might have stayed on

it's probably just a mis-type, what they probably meant to say was they were buying a lavazza for the canteen http://www.singleservecoffee.com/pictures/lavazza_blue_home_machine.jpg

so we'll probably not be signing him then

i'm rubbish at maths, betting's never interested me tbh. probably just as well

but what about kevin 'top scorer' nolan?

Micah Richards. i thought it was wor shola at first glance

who's hitting him with the snowball?

hopefully i wonder if that statement hughton made about assuring the fans we'd be trying to sign players was put out to try to diffuse fat mike and decca's bender in vegas?[

i could imagine yossi benayoun would do well in the villa side tbh.

^ looks good though i'd be pretty happy if we got something like that

i'd sell carroll to stoke for that alleged £6m if i thought we could get beckford and boyd for £3m each

yeah it's a worthy buy, i got mine a few years ago when toffs was still next to the adelphi, in the sale too as it was i just need to loose the xmas fat to fit back into it because it's a medium

he's definitely the early candidate for player of the season. seems like a nice fella too

yeah, coyle seems more 'likeable' too compared to phil 'i stopped a woman jumping off the humber bridge' brown and tony 'i fight players naked' pulis

he's probably hoping spurs stick a bid in for him, after being linked with us that said though they do need the bodies for centre of defence

that was alright actually, canny track. i did think the video was a bit 6th form media studies though

he recorded it at base hq studios just behind the centre of life apparently

either that or it means 'i won't panic because i know i'm not being given the money to sign anyone'

i imagine fergie's said to him 'if you score 15 goals this season i'll make sure you get to the world cup son' and owen's thought he's meant getting picked for the england team, whereas sir alex meant that was his goals bonus - a couple of tickets for some matches out there

good bit of business getting him off the wage bill and a massive plus if we got a transfer fee too. i really thought he'd just sit on the rest of his contract like bogarde. hopefully we can put the £ towards kilgallon/beckford/boyd

1) BEST TOON DEFENDER FROM THE LAST DECADE jonathan woodgate 2) BEST MIDFIELDER nobby solano 3) BEST STRIKER alan shearer 4) BEST OVERALL PLAYER shay given 5) BEST MANAGER sir bobby robson 6) MOST DISAPPOINTING PLAYER michael owen 7) WE SHOULD HAVE SIGNED... mark viduka .... instead of carl cort 8) WE SHOULD NEVER HAVE LET GO... scott parker 9) BEST HOME GAME vs portsmouth when big al got #201 10) BEST AWAY / NEUTRAL GAME 4-1 against the mackems at their place 11) WORST GAME getting hammered 5-1 by birmingham, then having roeder defend the team saying they played well 12) BEST GOAL SCORED probably shearer vs everton, but a favourite of mine has to be emre vs the mackems 13) WORST GOAL CONCEDED bramble's overhead kick to set henry up for a tap-in at highbury 15) BEST HAIRCUT bellamy's beckham/totti ponytail 16) WORST HAIRCUT andy carroll's cornrows 17) BEST LOOKING PLAYER peter lovenkrands 18) UGLIEST PLAYER clarence acuna 19) DIRTIEST PLAYER probably shearer 20) BEST STARTING XI OF THE DECADE --------------------given ---------------- beye - woodgate - faye - bernard solano - speed --- dyer --- robert ---------shearer ----- bellamy---------- 21) PREDICTIONS FOR THE NEXT 10 YEARS - MORE /LESS / EQUALLY SUCCESSFUL promotion, then either yo-yo'ing or mid table mediocrity depending on owners/investment 22) IF YOU COULD CHANGE ONE THING FROM THE LAST DECADE i'd have not sacked sir bobby, i had faith in him

was trevor sinclair's overhead kick for west ham this decade? or am i getting myself confused?

i think that's it for me

from the Mirror... well, question the source if you will, but sounds as if talks are a little bit further than we thought? total bollocks probably like! the star concurs though it sounds like bullshit to me, why would leeds play someone who wasnt going to be there shortly after in whats the biggest game for them in some time. perhaps to let him go out on a high, should they pull off the nigh on impossible beating of man united? or to give them a better chance against man united, so as to give the leeds folk the oneupmanship over the 'scum', if they managed it? when i compared beckford to andy cole, i meant as a striker who'd been in form coming in who could help us kick on to promotion, not that he is actually andy cole

that said though beckford will probably feel he has something to prove after being cast out by chelsea, much like andy cole when he was at arsenal and if we could bring beckford in in january he might have a similar effect to that of when we signed cole in the last promotion campaign. that said, i still wouldn't mind boyd coming in if we didn't go for beckford
