Not a chance Southampton will go. I reckon QPR, Reading and Wigan. I just think Villa will scrape out. Hopefully not.

35m plz.

Genius.

Or, we could offer him that, bring him up here, show him the city, play FIFA with him. Then let him do his medical and when it comes to sign, we could pass him what he thinks is a contract, but really it's just a dossier that says "Loic Remy is a massive cunt" for numerous pages.

Defoe just gone off injured. Don't think they'l have a striker for next week with Adebayor in Africa.

They were kicking off at the Central after the game. There was bother after the game outside the irish centre. 15 year old Chelsea kidda carrying one of those free flags they get, he got a chant of "you can shove your shit flag up your arse", then some numpty snatched it out his hand. When he turned round he literally had 6 or 7 Chelsea meatheads stove his face in.

Should be a decent atmosphere at their place.....

Time to take this competition seriously now. No excuses for weakened sides. I'd register MYM ahead of Debuchy for the latter rounds to bed him into the side.

No, if we lose at Spurs and a resurgent Southampton turn us over, we're right back in the scrap.

Happy enough with him starting today, but against anyone who aren't top 4 challengers it should always be Anita.

The atmosphere in the last 15 minutes in the Gallowgate/Corner was unreal.

November 2010 I think, West Ham away 1-2.

Fuck the match, the lad blatantly on a stag do dressed in full costume in the corner who couldn't find his seat.

It was. It was ToonTalk fanzine a few months ago.

He did, actually caught Agbonlahor's foot too. Stupid decision to go in rash like that in your own penalty area when the opposition player is moving away from goal. Stay on your feet and just shepherd him out before making a challenge. Ne he didn't. Agbonlahor stood on Debuchy's foot and proceeded to go down like he'd been sniped.

Did you to the game? Thought I seen you celebrating the 2nd on TV??? Yep I did mate. Could well have seen me.

Anyone who thinks it was a foul is off their tits. The only thing Debuchy was guilty of was giving him the opportunity to dive for a penalty. He got too close, which was naive.

Seems like only 28k tickets sold for this, so 15k empty seats.

Superb

The encouraging thing for me is that, at the moment, we don't have a 'best team'. Competition for places has been lacking but is needed in any successful team. We've finally got it. Fingers crossed Pardew doesn't take us down, and we can press on next year. Imagine the firesale if we went down now.

Thought Xisco may get it back

Says a lot that for me (and most) it's MYM and also Sissoko, when 2 weeks ago we were creaming over Debuchy. No excuses for Pardew now.

People calling Yanga-Mbiwa just 'Mbiwa' - keeping getting mighty confused.

Nicely put Not wanting to piss on your chips, but out of all the players we've signed/signing this window, i've not really seen any of them play much and none have played in England before. I'm delighted we're finally making signings, but i'll reserve judgement on their quality until they've played 6 months together. The sad thing is, we don't have 6 months to bed them in. We need instant results. Fingers crossed.
