Is Gouffran injured? Seriously?

The FA did forget about it Robbie. I fucking hate hate hate that stupid fucking cunt Robbie Savage. Regardless of that pointless comment about that tackle the bloke is thick as pig shit. Why the fuck have the BBC given him a job. Expert analysis? Fuck off. He gets things concepts, facts you name it totally wrong over and over again. Why forget about the tackle? So because he's scored a good goal he's allowed to do whatever the fuck he wants? What a pointless and irrelevant comment to make.

Imagine if we gave it to Demba Ba man

You reckon? I couldnt see why not at this point in time? Granted we're a bigger club than Swansea but what can we offer him thats enough to tempt him away from Swansea? We're hardly setting the world alight with money and it's not like we've won anything recently. Why would he jump ship now, when he can sit at Swansea for a while, keep on improving them and then jump ship to one of the top 4. He wouldnt come to us because he knows that if he carries on the way he is, he can end up doing better than us.

Really difficult because most of them have spent a large chunk of the time injured and out of form. Steven Taylor has performed most of the time when h'es played. Cisse has scored vital goals. Not exactly a great accolade anyway given most of them havent performed to the best of their abilities.

And playoffs are one way of helping negate the influence of money. It all starts with the belief that what teams like City and Chelsea do, in terms of their spending, is inherently unfair. If a team like Everton can stick with the big dogs through an entire season, despite a pitiful budget, they absolutely deserve the chance to compete for the league title. Yep. The only issue for me is the pointless games. A Champions league play off between 4th to 7th would be class though.

Why are we that bothered about settling who's the best team in the league anyway? It's not as if they're only the best team in the league because they've essentially cheated with money. Being against the play offs because it doesnt rightly justify who's best suggests some kind of 'sporting morality' as opposed to excitement. Some kind of need to decipher who's truely the best because thats what its all about at the end of the day. Why bother? All of that left the game when money started to decide who's best.

This. This is why it wouldnt work, too many meaningless games could kill the league. However, I must admit, we stand absolutely no chance of winning the league without major investment, that if anything, is absolutely shit. Playoff's is probably not the way to go but fuck me the current system is boring as fuck.

Definitely one for the future. Would like him to take a bigger club job first though. Was bizzarely sacked at Olympiacos but worked miricles with Georgia and Famagusta.

Ahhhhhh, spotted it a few times and always wondered what it was! Never even thought it would be Boro's. Looks very much like ours from first glance.

Definitely seen that clown with the wig before like.

Imagine being a billionaire man. Would be mint.

Cabaye is easily one of the best players in the squad. If he was to be used right, coached so that he utilises his abilitys rather then running around like a headless chicken and laying as a 3rd centre half, we'd have a player on his hands. Sadly, our manager hasnt got a fucking clue. He'll go in the summer I reckon, and he'll make a fucking success of himself.

Would Bielsa from Athletic be a viable option? Would love to see him here.

I'd 100% take Redknapp. Just going to throw that one out there.

Am i the only one that doesnt want Martinez? He's not particularly impressed me. Granted he works on a small budget and his best players get nicked but his team looks absolutely fucking shite until the last few games of the season when they pull themselves out.

I'm unsure on Gary Neville. Whilst I do think he'll eventually become a top manager/coach, he's yet to have any coaching experience at a club. To pluck someone with so little experience straight from the Sky studio would be a huge risk. Couldnt see Ashley doing it. I've got a feeling Neville wouldnt take the job either, think he really wants to learn the trade and not just jump in at the deep end.

Shouting shoot at Tiote man. Dont think he's struck a ball cleanly since that Arsenal game.

Really hope this isnt a case of another player being rushed back. Out for the majority of next season? 2 seasons without any football pretty much suggests he'll struggle to get back to a decent level. Sounds horrible writing him off like. Standout bloke and a great professional by all accounts like.

Benitez would be fantastic. Still a very very good manager. Whether he'd want to come here I dont know.

Ste and Stifler man Like an online version of the chuckle brothers.

That literally looks like the worst film ever.

Fuck me, 50/1!? I can just about see the point of view of those wanting him to stay however. I think our fanbase is scared of sacking a manager. For years under Shepherd we clambered for stability, for years we've wanted a manager who will stay for years. Last season, it did look like we might have ourselves some much craved stability. A good side, organised and playing well. Not playing great football but getting results as well as what looked on the face of it, a good manager. This season it has gone tits up and we have been woeful, but I can still see why some people want to keep him on. For me, and plenty of others though, I just cant see it getting any better. Thats the whole top and bottom of it. He's got a good set of players there, prior to January I gave him the benefit of the doubt because of squad was bare thin, now however, he's got reinforcements yet he cant seem to fit them in and get us playing. It wont improve like, I'm sure of it. Dont agree with the revisionists saying we were playing crap football last season either. Granted, we weren't playing free flowing stuff but we were organised, disciplined and had a threat going forward whilst being solid at the back, everything we're not this season. Too play the way we were last season takes time, it takes work and if it's not happening now, it wont happen any time soon. The tides been slowly turning against Pardew now for a while, the faith in Pardew has evaporated now for sure and it's only a matter of time before he's gone in my book like.

Might aswell be a third centre half at times like. Easily one of the most talented players in the team yet our moron of a manager has nee idea how to use him. Having said that he was fucking dreadful yesterday. Absolutely useless.

It probably shouldn't but it boils my p*ss that. This. They didnt seem to have a fucking clue how important this game was. Not a clue. Should have been drilled into them.
