Super Duper Branko Strupar

Agreed. IMO that's where we have been going wrong. After a good solid start to the season defensively, you can't come in and shake that balance. When all 4 are fit, all 4 should play. That's the Simpson, Williamson, Coloccini, Enrique lineup. For me, the problem is the fear we seem to have when Enrique isn't fit. Just play f***ing Ferguson there. Its his position after all, and he's our only other left footer. Its obvious surely? Regardless of his inexperience, it has to be better than crowbaring Taylor in there, or moving Simpson left and putting Taylor in at right back, or moving Simpson there, Raylor RB and Saylor RM, or even playing 3CB ands 2 wing backs? Mind boggling. I haven't spoken about this subject at all since he left, but I have a totally baseless feeling that we would have been alright by now (at least confidence and outlook wise) under CH. There's no point in talking about Hughton anymore. We want to be thinking about things we can change

Pace and power in every position

This is it, like

get in gooners

Left with Hughton ...

nar its still 3-0

Best striker of the ball we have tbf

yup

They're a better team than us, evidently. That much better than us? They were below us in the table before the game FFS. They're above us now though. So we shouldn't really be getting outclassed by our rivals should we? Did I say we should? You seemed to think it was expected. Head back to the chat area, you're embarrassing yourself in the football forum. He's the same in there n'all

OMG! With Peaches Geldoff

Its ok though, because despite an embarrassingly thin squad, we'll be saving money

....sigh

Just inviting pressure Inviting pressure? Have you been watching at all? I have, and I never once said we were being over ran, or that we were playing badly, all I meant is this formation is horrific. And i meant that in certain situations, the 3 centre backs and 2 wing backs would mean we have 5 sittign at the back for humps, and long throws and not enough options to break out from defence. Granted that hasn't happened, but playing 3 centre backs and wing backs away at Stoke is wrong in my opinion.

Just inviting pressure

Get. In.

What are you on about you knob? My comments have been nothing but fair. Its not the content but the delivery. And the fact you obviously read TribalFootball before you read our local newspapers. Your sentences just piss me off tbf.

Taxfree should start his own rumours thread, Then we can chose whether to get annoyed reading it, rather than being forced to in here.

Can't stand thinking Warnock is going to be ruining the PL again. Massive fucking Bell Eeeend

Ashley loves the toon. Seriously though, people speak as though he's quite happy to stay here and ruin us, but if we're taking what Golfmag said a few months ago as gospel (like we did about the Pardew stuff, the cost-cutting/player selling etc.) then we have to go along with the idea that he's doing all this because he intends to sell. Of course he intends to sell. Staying on and investing time and money into putting a long term business model in place to generate profits and stability in the long term rather than balancing the books and reducing outgoings and making it look a more attractive proposition by having players with a resale value takes balls and substance. We all know Ashley doesn't have this. He will take the money when he thinks he's done enough to command a high price short term.

You guys are destroying the patta in the Forum, like

The famous 300% pay rise which sounds a lot until you realise it was a rise from £5000 per week to £15000 - £10000 per week less than we ended up paying Babayaro. That was speculation. You're speculation

Haha, brilliant goal!

Mad c***. Robert to Shearer was dreamy. Nobby inswingers > Robert outswingers Bull honkey. Ginola either > Nobby inswinger > Robert outswingers tbf
