Classy as fuck. Ropey pass aside i can't believe he looks this good already.

Oh knackers!

Please don't play this nugget tonight. It's exactly the type of game he shouldn't play in. In that, it's played on grass as opposed to marsh mallow. And we're playing against men, as opposed to 4 year olds. Or fairies.

Nobody gave a monkeys about Ba's general play, despite his bitching about generally not playing on the left. Anyways, Cisse's a class act. His goal on sunday was superb, he just seemed to go Ooooooooooosh - how dya like them apples?

Like his broken leg or the Achilles injury both caused by him being.hacked? Expected that. It's more about coming back from them that's worrying me, something's not right. Whether we're rushing him back, medical staff getting something wrong or he's just prone to set-backs I don't know. Didn't they glue his leg back on the wrong way round or something? Hardly surprising really.

Gallowgate West is your best bet atm. It's the only area where you can get two seats together, and the mrs has decided she's coming too. Fuck it, why not?

Thanks for the input lads, i'm looking at the staium plan now. Christ there's next to nothing available!

Three hour drive for me though, if there's traffic problems down here i'll have to drive like a loon to get there on time. Collecting tickets adds more worries.

It's on the .co.uk website now, cash turnstiles on the night for Level 7 Leazes corner. Lovely, cheers!

Is this cash turnstilles thing bullshit? I'm tempted but need to know sharpish cause of work.

Pretty much my feelings on the subject too. Don't get me wrong i'd rather have Coloccini in the side, but there's a silver lining here.

They said they could cool open air stadia to 28 degrees which is never gonna happen in a million years. Now they want to ban alcohol and hold the tournament in winter. Just give the world cup to the country that should have been awarded it in the first place.

An apprentice at work surely can't be compared to a lad on £15k a week for 5yrs guaranteed (and then acts like a total nob head) I was trying to illustrate the same idea, a young lad needed a help but when people put their arm round his shoulder it was pushed away. I remember Kevin Nolan saying he'd offered to help Ranger and he was basically told to do one. I hope he turns his life around, that's about it really.

I know the kids a cunt and we're well rid of him but there's still part of the whole saga that leaves bitter taste in the mouth. We had an apprentice at work who was finished as soon as he came out of his time. Talented lad but had many issues, mostly personality related. I was gutted when they walked him to the gate because it felt like i'd failed and it feels similar with Ranger. Fair enough i haven't worked with Ranger and i don't know for sure exactly how much of a prat he is but surely somebody could have battered some sense into him?

That's what i thought because he's chopped and changed boots regularly during his time with us. Seems bizarre though for him not to have a deal, maybe he is now with nike but i'd put money on him wearing adidas boots early this season.

Is he sponsored by nike then? I'm asure he was wearing adidas boots early this season.

Carroll can lick my balls. I wouldn't have that cunt back gift-wrapped, so a swap deal for Be Arfa is just plain laughable.

What a fucking beast.

I thought he looked shaky at the start but came good later.

Distribution is the best i've seen from one of our keepers, not that that's saying a great deal. However on both of Southamptons goals i'm left thinking Krul would've saved that.

I'm looking forward to watching City vs Chelsea later, how did Lampard do?

Works his fat Senegalese knackers off, thoroughly deserved.

Playing for us he'd be Obertan.

I know i'll be shot down for being a retard but i've always thought Frank Lampard was hugely over-rated. He's class when surrounded by class and playing against weaker sides. But when Chelsea / England are struggling he's nowhere to be seen.

Baines over-rated? Fuck right off. The only thing between him and greatness is his hair cut.
