Were Jagielka or Lescott particularly England-standard before they came to us?

2-0 Rodwell. Straight down the middle and the keeper just left it.

1-0! Saha.

Is that worse than "awful, just awful"? About on par with that at the moment. Doesn't help our 3 (well, technically currently 4) best players are all not playing, but still. Total lack of options, pathetically slow movement, and poor passing. The good old days.

We look hopeless.

He's Preston manager now.

Brummie, what's your take on Carew's virus? Moreover, what's the problem at Villa? Why the lack of investment this summer? Are you as spineless as us when it comes to being clinical in the transfer market? Edit: Although, seems Vienna are just up for it more than Villa.

Think we'll win 3-1.

Does Lawrenson live in a world of advanced binary, where only 0, 1 and 2 are used?

He's only said he's happy to continue until someone else comes in. Is that a remarkable comment like?

Brilliant, thanks for that. This boy's got qualifications, he has.

If it isn't what he wants to do, then good on him for having the balls to follow a different path.

The media regularly manipulate things to suit whatever strategy or needs they want to pursue. Of course Newcastle get some unfair publicity but the media want headlines. Guess where they're gonna go for it? A club that makes a lot of headlines. And from then, other smaller stories will be inevitably blown out of proportion.

Lescott's as good as gone. Moyes is stubborn but I hope he isn't a fucking imbecile as well.

A bit more intelligence and strength in the tackle then I think Johnson could be the best England right back we've had in a while.

Nonsense. He's mint on FM.

Phil hearts hyperbole.

Sigh, the Everton game isn't on TV. Do Channel 5/ITV not have Europa Super XL League coverage this year?

2-2.

First home game of the season and they concede 5. Idiots. Shouldn't this be called the 'Let's all laugh at Hull' thread?

I should have really thought about the fact 8 teams weren't playing midweek, when picking all my players. Still, 102 from 2 rounds isn't a bad start.

that's basically what we said last season about last season's team (around this time too) To be fair, though, that's the one good thing about playing in this league. There aren't any games that are obvious defeats. I think all our games are both winnable and potentially losable. Give the man a prize.

No shit Sherlock!
