I thought I'd slip down a bit, hadn't even realised Wigan scored that consolation goal to get me an extra couple of points. Been good this, cheers Beren. How many of the 48 have played every week? Looks like Decky's really fucked up by not being on the ball.

Let's just call it a day on this now I reckon.

Will start working soon imo, just need to keep at it.

Good post Beren, it's definitely quite frustrating that in situations like that - when towards the end of the first half it looks like we're playing some canny stuff and beginning to click against a poor side - that we come out for the 2nd half seemingly with the main intention being to stifle the opposition and spoil our way to the win. Very negative.

Fuck them then. Honestly, the idea that we owe them anything when they're playing like shite is ridiculous. Transfer window's been and gone now, they both need to look at improving their form.

Simpson? That's a fucking advantage. Well I think so too, Pardew might not when he's setting up the team though.

Suppose you can't ignore the fact we're still missing Coloccini, Krul (and Simpson). May have been a bit bolder going forward if more confident in our back 5. Wouldn't bet on it though.

20 minute spell where we played some decent stuff.

Hmmm. Happy with the points, the performance can piss off.

We just look generally edgy, unsurprisingly, similar to the same match last season. Have just held on for dear life most of the half, annoys me when we do this but it (touch wood) usually works out.

Really shaky 2nd half, frustrating.

Tiote being a fucking nutcase. Making up for lost time in the yellow card hunt.

What the fuck are we doing man?

Tiote. :lol:

If everything went the way Birtles said it should then there would be about 20 goals in every match.

Been an annoying 2nd half like.

Beat Stoke 3-0 about 5 home matches ago.

What's Birtles moaning about now FFS.

Howay man.

Yep.

Ben Arfa will end up paying a fortune in roaming charges here if he's not careful.

Oof.

Birtles still fucking moaning.

They should have a scrap of paper on the dressing room wall. Pecking order that applies come hell or high water, or poor form, or egos, or being nice to one another. Shambles. Pardew should really enforce his authority on this one. 1. Shola 2. Ben Arfa 3. Cabaye 4. Ba 5. Cisse agree though would probably have cisse lower than that. i have seen Taylor take some good penalties for the 721s and I'm sure Krul could take penalties Krul. FFS.
