Ha ha - what an imagination he has..

However much you rate Scholes or don't rate Lampard, that is a huge exaggeration.

I still want Bielsa.

How does Gareth Barry still get a game for City?

I know it's become fashionable to have a go at Tiote - but he really isn't as bad as some want to make out he is. At his best, he is a good defensive midfielder.

I don't suppose, given the length of the article, that it was a 12 hour interview. I think his training time would have been unaffected.

I dunno, isn't it fairly common for clubs to send players away for specialist treatment? It's a common theme that whenever HBA is injured he goes there no matter what type of injury. I don't blame him because with all the muscle troubles we've been having this season I sure as hell wouldn't be trusting us to bring me back from a muscle injury. I wouldnt trust our medical staff over a splinter In fairness, some splinters are very tough to get out.

I have gone from thinking he must be on his way to thinking that they will persist with him until Christmas. Unfortunately.

We also want Chelsea to need to beat Villa on Saturday and possibly Tottenham to need to beat Sunderland on the last day.

What are we meant to be hoping for from tonight's game?

I think Ancelotti could be an outside bet. Ancelotti to Man Utd, Mourinho to PSG.

I am sure this was posted already but I'll post it again. http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/blog/2013/apr/30/newcastle-pardew-transfers-french-coaching Maybe we should ask Tor if Rene is likely to come..

8th in the all time PL table And before the Premier League?

Yep - being a regular top 8 club just isn't true.

Article heading is completely misleading and doesn't really make any difference whatsoever to us if we go down.

Being 1 place above relegation with 3 games to go doesn't have any appeal in the slightest. This season isn't fun, but at least we are in the top division. I don't get the appeal of the Championship - always thought it was one of the biggest myths of our last relegation.

Winning games was far more enjoyable that losing games has been this season. Each to their own I suppose - but I didn't enjoy it much. Yeah, it was nice winning, but I'd rather be bottom half of the Premiership than top of the Championship. Beating teams like Doncaster and Preston loses any appeal after the second week.

The Championship was crap.

I'm on a 5. I just think it might be a bit too much for Wigan to do to be honest.

Just out of interest.. if Ben Arfa does stay beyond this summer, I assume you will retract that?

Jonas will be knackered.

Before we played West Brom we'd lost our last 4 away games, why should the 2 after WBA be any different to the 4 before? Our last game at home is against Arsenal, that should be a piece of p*ss. By the same token, why are you so certain that Wigan are going to get 5 more points than us? Their form might be getting better, but there is a reason why they are 5 points behind us.

Wigan woeful? What the f*** does that make us? Well... they are currently 5 points below us, so it would be hard to argue they are better than us.

Stojkovic Bielsa Zeman Laudrup Go out and get one of them. Give them a bit of cash and let them get on with it.

I imagine any properly advised manager would look at and carefully consider every clause of his contract. His severance terms would be pretty high on a list of things to look at..
