We need to start signing players on 15 year contracts signed in their own blood tbh, or this will keep on happening.

Hang on, is it the real Ken Barlow or not? Edit: well not the character, the actor.

Oh good.

What would Barton know about playing for a club like Man United who generally challenge on all fronts? The guy should just shut the fuck up now tbh.

I'm amazed you're not more excited about this, Neil.

Ooh, I hope Man Utd and Liverpool go out.

Didn't you predict Everton-Fulham, Neil?

Bless that kid, his hand's are shaking!

He was fucking class like, added an extra layer of drama to the proceedings.

Have some dignity ffs.

I'd imagine you'd find scribblings like these in the house of a massive sex offender once they'd been rumbled and later sentenced to multiple life sentences. Bizarre.

Dignity.

I find it difficult to believe he'd rather sit on the bench than play on the wing, which is essentially what it's boiled down to on many an occasion so far this season.

"We apologise for the loss of sound". These guys!

ITV's football coverage mantra: If it can go wrong it will go wrong.

ITV. :lol:

Man City's first priority for the next 10 minutes needs to be not to concede.

Erm, advantage, ref?

I do think we need him in the squad personally, just shouldn't be starting.

I believe he has a clause, remember when he signed he had more than one suitor and he put a pretty good clause in his west ham deal. But I don't believe it is £10m more like double that. Relegation release clauses are fairly common in this country, minimum fee release clauses aren't. Who knows, but I'd be very surprised.

I quite like Mick Lowes but I think it's mainly because listening to his commentary reminds me of my youth.

Is that his first 90 minutes for us this season?
