Because they have red numbers and names, innit?

Daily Mail reckon Spurs will see £6m of the initial £18m by way of a £3m sell on fee and £3m unpaid instalments. Basically this leaves them without Bent or, come the end of the season when Fergie refuses to sell him, Welbeck and just enough money to sign the rest of the players they currently have on loan. Don't know how this can be interpreted as anything other than a bad deal for them. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-1348447/Sunderland-boss-furious-Aston-Villa-clinch-Darren-Bent-deal-Tottenham-primed-6m-windfall.html

Honestly think he might consider retiring. Now when he can wind down his contract on his silly wage.

I'll answer my own question. Looked like a ManU scarf at 1st. Still got his usual scarf underneath as well. http://www.mcfc.co.uk/News/Club-news/2011/January/Red-and-black-Blues

He got kicked out for smoking.

What's with Mancini's scarves?

Bent basically saying he feels Villa deserve to and can achieve top 6, that their current position is a false one and that he's moving for footballing reasons only. The mackems will love that.

Apparently Sunderland have sold some bent lad.

The inbreds giving it the 1-1 with their fingers on the way out made my day. Never felt like I was amongst a lower class of person in my life than when I was looking around the people stood in and outside that ground.

I'd hope it isn't, if they sell Pavlyuchenko I can see Spurs stepping up their pursuit for a striker, and we know who they'd prefer.

What happened to the 4pm press conference?

Well ... Get him to ask what he's doing. He didn't mention his cousin is female and she's now being Pardewed in the toilets. My cousin is female as it happens and she's a season ticket holder so I doubt she'd pass up the opportunity if it was on offer It's always on offer with Pards.

Well, we are talking about Alan Pardew.

Will be disappointed if he doesn't get any ITK info by the time he lands.

Pienaar's apparently confirmed it himself that he's going to Spurs on everyone's favourite social networking site.

Would be hilarious if we did, just to end an already bad week for them down the road.

Says Mr 'According to Twitter..' himself.

Well it is the FA we're talking about, they've been very soft on Sunderland previously. They do have a lot of "previous" from this fixture and indeed others when they get a big crowd. They're actually allowed on the pitch for TakeThat.

If it wasn't for the lack of cover I'd be happy with a loan move, gives him another 6 month to regain form and confidence in a title topping team allowing us to re-asses the situation when he returns.

Hatem. I've always thought of him playing a role similar to VdV at Spurs. Even so, if Barton or Jonas pick up an injury before he's back we've no cover bar youngsters.

Surely this leaves us with only one senior out and out winger in Jonas? Strange.

He was one of many who ran onto the pitch. A couple ran from the east stand with FTM flags, past all us in the South Stand, and were let in the west stand no bother by the stewards. The lad is obviously the worst example but, he is being used to deflect the attention away from the fact there were numbers of others. Was even worse a couple years ago when they actually won.
