One thing I like about Hughton is his lack of tactical arrogance if you like. We know he loves Nicky Butt, however he's dropped him. Previous managers might have stuck with him and gone with the my way or the high way approach.

Whats this about Alan Carr like?

It's quotes like that which make people set up shit like this http://www.clivetyldesleyisacunt.co.uk/index.html

I think we could make the top 4, if not definately europe. After all, it's our god given right to be there..... ....Well somebodys got to keep up the stereotype that the media loves to believe.

I wish Blatter and his cronies would (barring the active/inactive offside rule) just leave the rules of the game be ffs.

Untill he gets someone in who knows football I fear he'll carry on making the same mistakes. I really think he needs some sort of advisor, someone who's been involved in the running of a club, someone who knows a few tricks of the trade. Lambhuna and Ashley dont really know how to run a football club, getting someone like David Dein in on a massive salary could make all the difference. I know Shepherd and Hall had Freddie Fletcher in the early days and I remember Shepherd saying how running a football club was like a minefield and Fletcher helped them through it. In the end I'm not too sure how much of a positive impact if any Freddie Fletcher had at Newcastle but surely Ashley and Llambias having someone there who's experienced for a bit for advice couldn't hurt.

Always thought he was a canny player when I've seen him. Constant bad injuries will probably have took their toll like.

Tbf Scholes dosent seem the type of player that the hairdryer treatment would work on. Scholes seems the type of lad that would get motivated and their arse into gear with a hand round the shoulder and a quiet word rather than the hairdryer treatment.

Probably the best right back i've seen at the club in the previous decade. He was fantastic imo. However, he lost all respect from me the day he left AFTER saying he'd stay. You cant come out and say your willing to stick around and then leave at the first choice. If he had kept his mouth shut throughout the pre-season and then left, then fair enough but he didnt, he gobshitted off and then snaked off. I hope he regrets to fuck leaving. He's in the latter years of his career, stuck at a club that dosent want him and he dosent want to be there and after a nightmare season which will probably be his last in the premier league. Proof is there ever was any that the Grass isnt always greener on the other side.

Totally agree with this the above post. The premier league is utter shit. It consists of the same top 4 clubs fighting for the title every single season while 16 other teams fight around for scraps. The whole league is money driven, totally and utterly money driven. Without an immense amount of financial backing no team outside the top 4 + City is ever going to get into the top 4 let ever challenge for the title again. Gold can be quiet tbh, what have West Ham ever got to look forward to? Trying to keep their head above water every season from now on, the best they can hope for is a mid of midtable mediocrity and if they're lucky and invest again more money they might qualify for a shitty European trophy that nobody seems to really care about these days anyway. The same goes for the majority of the league. Best fucking league in the world my arse. Ok, the standard of football is the best around but so fuck, what have we got to look forward to as fans? in terms of the league, nothing really. The sooner the top 4 + Man City fuck off into a European super league the better, then we might actually have a competitive league again.

^ That.

Does anyone know about other clubs policy's with regards to Alcohol? Do any other clubs players constantly go out on the hoy.

Tuesday night is pivotal tbh. Absolutely massive for them and potato head. They play Bolton at home, after that they've got City, a very good Birmingham side, then Liverpool and Spurs. If they dont beat Bolton I cant see them getting anything from their next 4 fixtures.

Would we? If the shoe was on the other foot would our fans purposely put time and effort into breating banners mocking Villa? WOuld we have stayed behind and took the piss? I know i wouldnt have tbh.

Maurice Edu has just scored a late winner for Rangers to effectively end Celtics title challenge. Edit: That happened earlier today, wtf is my mate talking about

The difference is though Ranger is only a kid, prior to this season he hadn't played a senior game and is still learning his trade. Best is 24, he has experience and should be hitting his prime soon.

Malaga giving Barcelona a game of it here.

White shorts are obviously the way forward

I debate if Eduardo actually came back though, he seems different. Fabregas with the penalty. scores. From what i've seen Eduardo looks about 75% of the player he was before. Real shame as he was quality. Aye, he was on fire the season he got that injury iirc, never looked the same since.

I'd rather they go down. They've got cash, if they stay up they'll rebuild, probably get another manager in, who might not waste it on shit like the previous managers and turn themselves around. They've got alot of financial power these days, and probably shouldnt be in the position they're in now. As for Derbies, fuck them. I cant stand them anyway. I'd rather just take the piss out of them for being a league below us rather than potentially get beaten off them/finish higher than us.

He seems to be on the bench alot for Burnley. Hardly set the world alight this season either. I agree with Yorkie too, the difference between a good championship player and a decent prem player is massive, some cope alright, some dont. There are countless players that based on their performances in the championship look like they'd be able to cope in the premier league, but just never do.

I see Bolton beat Wolves. Bad news for the mackems imo, I thought Bolton were one of the teams that wouldnt have enough to get out of trouble, while I thought Wolves would stay up. Tomorrow is massive for them.

:lol: Awesome stuff

The thing that worries me most about Best is the length of his contract. That suggests we're going to be playing him next season, where he'll be massively out of his depth. Anyway, a good win. Onwards and upwards.
