  1. Fuck off with wearing the lime top at home ffs! Anyhoo!! Come on!!!
  2. Debuchy would have solved half of this. [/canofworms] Santon alone brings it into mf at the moment. Sounds cliche but signing Debuchy (or someone of his ilk) would have transformed the football team. The single biggest (and probably only real) failure of our summer dealings.
  3. Hoping for a 0-0 in this "derby". Have both Clark and McAuley in my FF side
  4. so they're basically admitting that he's a blatant nancy diver? Fuck me! How are they surprised by refereeing bias against this turd when he takes every opportunity he can get to cheat or appeal, rolling around like a man shot with a baretta at close range, arms flailing in the air, fangs pointing to the sky? Serves him and them right.
  5. Wasn't the captain at Forest for nothing. He clearly has the right attitude and approach towards the game, and I'm so glad we've seen he has the football application to match. Looked way out of his depth in his first few games at the club, but my word, what a turnaround. Would not look out of place in our best 11. There's very little between him and Gutierrez at the moment in terms of effectiveness.
  6. RAWK. Thread. Bodgers: man of the moment. Quote from the thread: "I think we will finish 4th"
  7. We owe the 3 pts to this old head. Fantastic control of his area and decent distribution.
  8. Penalty duties should be given to the coolest man on the pitch. James Perch any day of the week

    I love Tiote's calves. :fingering:
  10. It seems most on RAWK would rather Wisdom played RB (with Johnno LB) than see Joso on the pitcho. Obviously the injuries to Kello, Dagger and Borro are yet to be confirmed by Bodgers, but they are quite sure that Suaro, Hendo, Stevie and Heemo will shine the torch across all competitions. Next season.
  11. With games in the EL and LC coming up, Carragher will definitely get a game or two or six.
  12. 3 trophies in the last four years. Championship, that cup in this years pre-season and what more? Trofeo Teresa Herrera
  13. This guy can have the world at his feet if it weren't for his outrageously limited brain and decision making. Whatever he has in his locker in terms of pace, skill and technique is rendered moot by his shockingly woeful timing and decisions. I keep thinking this is something that can be coached into him with time, but whenever he looks like improving a tiny little bit, he goes and puts in a cameo like the one we saw yesterday. Can't believe someone like Amalfitano who has shown desire and application every time he's played for us can't get 10 minutes ahead of Obertan in yesterday's scenario. Not much hope for him now imo.
  14. Starting to feel a bit guilty for hating LFC as much as I do. Most of my good friends are supporters, and I've had to endure years of shit from them for supporting Newcastle. I have really enjoyed seeing them spiral out of control during the last few years, but even I must admit, shit as they are, they have been unlucky in the main. They didn't dominate Man Utd as much as they think they did, and still barely created any real openings. They were still good value for a point however, and I think now that they have been screwed out of it by a poor penalty decision. I want to laugh at them for being shit, and not for being fucked over by refs. I think a re-match is in order.
  15. Makes a late tackle and kills someone: Mr Liverpool. Plays a hollywood ball out to the wing but nobody there: Mr Liverpool. Ball drops on the box and toe punts it aimlessly forward: Mr Liverpool. Gets involved in a dispute which has nothing to do with him, making it worse, then telling everyone to calm down: Mr Liverpool. Motm? Man of he universe, get it right. Passes it two foot forward.... GEEEERRRRRRRRRAAAAAAARRRRDDDDDD!!!!! it's scary how close that is to reality
  16. We shouldn't give up on him yet imo. We got him for nowt, and he hasn't really had a proper run in the side up until this season. We need the bodies, and I like that he has the opportunity to play in the Europa and Cup games which gives him objectives and milestones to achieve. He looked much much improved against Maritimo, even in terms of his mobility and control. No reason to stall his progress now. He seems like a good professional, and I can;t imagine he's on a wage that is incongruent with his contribution. Keep.
  17. Boils down to who scores first. If we manage it I'm fairly confident we'll win it.
  18. Me neither, but I thought this was his best game for us in terms of having a bit of control in the midfield. I guess having Bigi next to him helped. Gosling was a bit more on top of things this time around, and he still makes those excellent late runs into the box.
