Like me grandad said at the pub today it's a funny business when it takes the crowd chanting for Ben Arfa for him to bring him on against WBA, he never did bring him on in the games previous. Pardew deserves stick for not using Ben Arfa properly recently imo, there's nowt unjustified about it.

It's official. It's funny that, you're not one for patting yourself on the back Ronaldo. Love Ba, looks tremendous. Not looking forward to being without him.

Strange post, Cajun tbh.

This, except 3-0 us. In all seriousness I do think we'll get a draw now, given both team's form. Would be nice anyway.

Love this lad, despite the limited time he's had on the pitch he's nearly always had a part in a goal when he's featured, or close enough. Needs to start vs Liverpool.

Get in! Happy Christmas you twats!

I think Ben Arfa did enough to get a start the other night, and Obertan's definitely done enough by now to get dropped. Would be nice to see a front six of Jonas-Vuckic-Tiote-Cabaye-Ben Arfa-Ba. We'll see but I share Mick's lack of high hopes.

Fucking hell, I hadn't realised they've lost 7 and won 1 of their 8 home games so far.

Now my desktop wallpaper for Christmas Good call, gonna do the same.

Disagree that it was a poor performance by his standards, he was terrible and offered us nothing. Even when he had a dodgy game last season or the start of this one there'd be a handful of things he'd do very well, but I thought he was full-on shite on Wednesday.

Will laugh my tits off if they pay £8m for Zamora, he's 31 next month and generally scores less than 10 goals a season.

It's a bizarre post like.

Imagine Hansen had said darkie.

"Coloured" more offensive than "darkie". :lol:

Such an important game, this. Lose this and get nowt from Liverpool and Man Utd and that's 9 games (a quarter of the season) where we've picked up next to nowt. Obertan needs to be dropped, it's starting to get on my tits now.

Buy a centre half.

What a player, delighted to have him and never realised he was this good at all. He's been almost our only real threat going forward the last few games.

PS Demba Ba is fucking way better than I ever realised, he can score any type of goal from anywhere.

Fucking hell we were bad tonight. First half the only serious efforts we had were Demba's FK goal and Vuckic's shot off the bar. Second half we had a few more attempts but we didn't deserve to win. Neither did they mind, draw would have been fair. Was quite alarmed by the negativity in the crowd tonight, our lot were getting ripped the fuck apart in the second half.

Even without the ambiguity in the Suarez case you can't go around throwing lifetime bans at people for an isolated incident on a football pitch - the focus needs to be on suitable punishment, education and rehabilitation. It's interesting that there's also an element of ambiguity in the Terry case, although of a different sort. Also, both players are arseholes but they aren't known as raving Nazi lunatics off the pitch, in which case I could understand considering longer bans. In fact both players have had numerous professionals come out and defend them as non-racists in the last few months, it's madness to suggest banning either for life for these incidents ffs.

Come off it man. Why should he be allowed to play football again? If it was an Olympic athlete racially abusing people in their chosen sport then they would be banned for life, why should a footballer be any different? Did you make that up?

Come off it man.

Which travesty of justice brought on their recent forfeit of European competitions?
