  1. 8am train tomorrow, head to my Dad's when I get there then walk into town for the match. Be good to be in the Gallowgate again.
  2. Haven't had to read through drivel the last few pages trying to get some info on Coloccini, can anyone tell me if there's anymore news on our captain?
  3. Well yeah that' shit too, but you're missing my point. What's wrong with a proper celebration with some emotion with the fans and players instead of some pre though out ego twatt stance. Says everything about the lad, idiot.
  4. His "celebration" when he scores is embarrassing. All that serious look, arms folded etc, fuck off
  5. I like the idea that he's good in the air and sounds like he combines good strength to be a target man but also the skill to take players on, on the wing. As mentioned above could be an ideal foil for Ba.
  6. Remember watching plenty of clips on youtube and he certainly is good in the air. In fact most of the goals were headed goals so he defo uses his 6'2 height very well and has an excellent leap on him. Carr et al have obviously looked at his skills and figured they're ideal for the prem. Possible 16m sale in the summer after impressing?
  7. That's the worst display I've seen from a side in the 2nd half for a long time, dear oh dear. Blackburn, utter shite.
  8. Spot on. This is kind of what I was getting at, you've just put it better
  9. Christ keep the ball Blackburn ffs. Sunderlol will score otherwise.
  10. I have faith in Carr finding good players and its great to sell players for a massive profit but the problem is Ashley isn't interested in re-investing that money in the team, full stop end of story. A club like ours will always be vulnerable to bids for our top players but where does it stop? We can't simply sell someone as soon as they start doing well in the premier league because we'll never move forward. Someone mentioned on here recently about how Spurs have progressed with the sales of the likes of Berbatov but it's also been pointed out that that money has gone straight back into the side. Assuming Tiote is soled in the summer for 25m, when you throw in sky money, season ticket sales and the fact that the Carroll money has never really been fully spent we should be looking to spend 35-40m. But it won't happen under this regime. I'm all for bringing to an end the days of fat cat players at our club sitting around doing nowt and I think the club has done well there but Ashley simply doesn't have the interest in the club, it's progression or care what the fans think. He's slowly clawing back his money and in the mean time using it as an advertising tool. Ok I've gone off on a tangent a bit but as far as I'm concerned Pardew and the players are doing fantastically but the rug will always be pulled from underneath us with this regime.
  11. If he doesn't move in Jan he'll be sold in the summer, atleast then we would have time to get replacements/reinforcements
  12. I thought Santon looked good and we looked more solid down the left. Surely he has to start against Swansea because even if there are any question marks about him he's so much better than Ryan Taylor. For one he actually has pace to get back into position or take on quicker players. I was gutted after Chelsea but I think we got what we were expecting yesterday. It was pretty obvious Lambert was going to throw the big lads at us without any centre halfs and the resulting goals were pretty predictable. The sending off was annoying and there were poor displays (Obertan) but we basically got what was coming imo and for that reason I don't feel like my insides have been pulled out like last week against Chelsea.
  13. Either way it was a fucking ridiculous thing to do given our injury problems. Furthermore we made it 3-2 so who knows we might have been able to snatch something with 11 v 11. Idiot.
  14. If Colo and Tiote (yeah right) back: Krul Simpson Perch Colo Santon Ben Arfa Cabaye Tiote Jonas Ba Best Assuming Colo makes it but no Tiote: Krul Simpson Perch Colo Santon Ben Arfa Cabaye Abeid Jonas Ba Best
  15. How the fuck Obertan can keep Ben Arfa out of the side on this form, I mean it's not like Obertan offers anything defensively anyway.
  16. Annoying goal but they should have had a penalty. What exactly does Obertan offer?
  17. Well not only that but there's the issue of who we might sell too! The two at the top will always think of ££££££ first before footballing sense.
  18. If Col is fit I'd like to see: Krul Simpson Perch Colo Santon Ben Arfa Cabaye Gosling Jonas Ba Shola We'll see (if Colo is fit) Krul Simpson Perch Colo Raylor Obertan Cabaye Guthrie Jonas Ba Shola
  19. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2071388/Fabricio-Coloccini-hopes-fit-Newcastle-Saturday.html That's good news but I'd rather he wasn't risked and then be out for ages, maybe better to get him back for Swansea. Still I have faith in Pardew and the physios.
