Aye, don't think those in the front rows will look back on the day with as much amusement, for every decent one about 10 or so went flying into the back of some blokes head.

Was brilliant, every now and then there'd be a roar from the Gallowgate as one would actually have a half decent flight.

One of those silly games you remember clear as day for whatever reason. If I'm not mistaken I can even remember that they were Peperami adverts.

Where's that from? Any reason why?

Whey, someone's finally got the better of old red nose in the mind games.

Nearly stuck a couple quid on the 1st goal being a header.

According to this they were 50/1 to stay up at one point in that season. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/eng_prem/7381800.stm

Aye, they came from 2-0 down to win at City did they not? Aye, they were 5 points adrift from safety with three games left and only Derby (who eventually registered a record points low) below them going into that too, they ended up winning all three.

Aye, went for this too.

Aye, the rest of it is awful.

Not really paid much attention to his career, but I thought that after a very impressive World Cup in 06 Podolski massively went off the boil. He was a bit of a failure an Munich wasn't he?

Paddy Power's Twitter will have some enhanced odds over the course of the day, they're limited time only, but there's been some cracking deals over the past couple weeks so well worth keeping an eye on it. https://twitter.com/#!/paddypower paddypower ‏ @paddypower NEWSFLASH: I've just seen the offers coming up for the rest of the day for the Manchester Derby. AAAAAAAAAAAH-UUUUUUUUUUH <<#pricegasm

If it's announced in the next few days I'd expect to see us wear it against City, especially with the game being televised.

Fucking hell, you wouldn't think that they've/he's just moved back to level on points with us/Pardew today.

:lol:

FA have played a blinder here.

Well, that weekend was a bit of a disaster. Nearly everything that could go wrong, did. We're still in there with three games to go though which would've been completely unbelievable at the start of the season.

Ideal scenario would be qualifying for the CL, finishing third in the group and dropping out into the EL knock-out phase. Brings you the added revenue and glamour ties of the CL whilst it also allows us to play in a tournament we'd be much more competitive in and means we'd bypass the ridiculous early stages.

Still a bit gutted the market suspended just as I was about to stick a fiver on Torres. Just withdrew the £40 I had sat in my Paddy Power account, think I'll stay well away from the last couple games unless there's any more silly offers kicking about like the Cisse anytime bet last week.

Seems everyone's copying that look now. Who actually makes the Palace kit? Or is it some sort of club shop job?

Torres hat-trick has pushed the bookies over the edge.

Thankfully didn't go for my no goal bet, but was just about to stick a couple quid on Torres next goal there. Oh well.

For the first time since the vote opened I'd be voting no right now. That can all change with a result mid-week, but I just don't see that happening at the minute.
