What are you doing, man? That just isn't worth it! You'll make it back in the long run (if you stop betting on Madrid), this is asking for trouble. Reminds me of myself when I first started betting. Aye, was going to refer to you somehow in that, but thought you'd see the similarities yourself!

Is that to do with S Taylor? Who knows...maybe he collects them with S Taylor? Or maybe he's just keeping himself busy and letting us know?

It wasn't rocket science on how to stifle Adam Johnson, but clever nonetheless. He's an inside winger, every single time he gets the ball he cuts inside. What do you do? Put a right footed full back up against him. Santon had him in his pocket all day long.

The celebrations in Sam Jacks when Cabaye scored were just insane

Cant fault him or any of our players today. The only person who let us down was Martin Atkinson- what a disgrace he is, gave us nothing all day. I thought Pards got it spot on with bringing on Perch, although I was a tad disappointed he didn't start. My only gripe was replacing Ben Arfa?

I really just need to get into Sam Jacks now and just pray. Please, please beat these toe rags.

LETS FUCKING HAVE 'EM!!! HOWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!!

Oh fuck, fuck, fuck, fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck!!!

Oh c'mon! So nervous and buzzing for this at the same time! There just isn't another other game possible that brings this much tension and fucking nerves! Hate derby day tbh...just too much. KILL THE MACKEMS!

Just another day on RTG, isn't it?

That tackle on Colo above is an absolute horror. It could so easily of ended his career. Bardsley is such a vile football player, I would have no problem if he was on the receiving end of a tackle like that.

He's got the right idea but he's executing it in the wrong way/with the wrong people.

:anguish: The last time you said that, we lost 3-0. I don't get it wrong often twice in a short time (EURO 2012 aside), though. You do know that there is a 'quoting' button on here?

Looking back it was the best possible result for us. Aye, we could well have been waving goodbye to the likes of Shearer if we had won that. Blessing in disguise.

I get your point, but I struggle to remember a time this season where we have invited teams onto us with the idea of hitting them on the break. If we invite teams onto us then we're asking for big trouble. We shouldn't play with fear, we can hurt them more than can hurt us.

I bet Garth loves cake.

Absolutely made up about this! Also very pleased to see the 'St.James' Park' sign outside Barrack Road will be going back up.

f***ing hell, even if you don't rate him it's sad to see a young prospect having such a torrid time with injuries. Especially when you see somebody like Ranger earning money and having no interest in playing whatsoever. Now compare that to the attitude of somebody like Vuckic who just wants to play and hasn't had the chance to make it due to the amount of injuries that he's had. Quite a despicable comment in all honesty. Disgraceful comment.

Bad news this. Really rate Haris. Lets hope its not too serious

A lot of it in these games is being up for the battle, having the stomach for it. It's vital we make a good start and don't let them get into us and intimidate us from the off- if they win the crowd over soon on it'll be a serious struggle. Obviously 'on paper' means nowt, but the quality we (potentially) have against them is so superior. Absolutely bricking it.

Decent man manager, poor tactician.

Not confident at all. Draw.

Cant see him as the type to ever produce consistently for us. However, that's not to detract from a solid performance last night.
