Surely has to bring Marveaux into the fold? Well we won't be expected to get anything and in that sense there won't be the same pressure on us as say it were against a Wigan type side. We also seems to raise our game against the top sides. So I'm not as nervous as I probably will be for the QPR match. It's also a MUST win for City after sunday. A defeat but not a blow out

Well until he's replaced with a new centre it's going to be the same bloody story, game in game out. And we can't rely on Taylor staying fit. NEED a new CH

Utterly predictable.

Whereas I can actually see us getting a result here if all the 1st teamers are back in the side I can also see the predictably poor result as per. And a poor result here and the pressure is squarely back on them going into some really tough fixtures.

He gave them that (predictable) short term lift when he arrived but he looks hopelessly outdated at the moment with his play. He doesn't look like he has a plan B currently and the players he's brought in like Johnson simply aren't doing it. Once his ability to get the players fighting for the cause goes then he has no back up system wise to fall back on. Looks dead in the water to me but we'll see I suppose.

Nice straightforward transfer if someone wants him then

We needs to sign a centre half and the Ba situation needs to be sorted as it's getting boring now. Doubt either will be sorted though.

"London mags" in quotes. Fuck me you're as bad as those prick Liverpool fans who call up saying anyone who lives outside of Liverpool isn't a Liverpool fan. I'll remind my brother who lives in London that he's not a proper mag

I went to the match just after Carroll had been sold. God what a hideous night that was. Mind we completely folded last season in the 2nd half, total collapse. They've lost 3 out of the last 4 and haven't won in the last 7 or 10 games (can't remember which) so they're not in form. They always seem to raise their game against us at home though and that cunt Duff always turns it on.

Love the crowd appreciation he does in the corner at the start of each half. Total class act this lad

Yeah it is ridiculous that people are so quick to judge a player. It takes time to adjust to a new league and environment, I mean he said himself it he was having to get used to the pace of the game here and how quickly the pace changes. Remember Evra and Vidic both endured much tougher starts and many Man U fans including my mate were writing them off........ Really starting to come on now though.

Back from the match.......... Atmosphere was class (if a slightly smaller crowd than usual) and the crowd really got behind the team. Team got the crowd going too having started well but there was a really good vibe, like the players and fans were fairly in sync. Thankfully there weren't any of the boo brigade around me in the Gallowgate. I would've taken 3 points anyway but that was positive and something to build on. Pardew deserves credit for changing things. Marveaux gives us another great option.

Him and Ben Arfa in the same side could really give us so many more options

Changed things up and we won 3-0. Ok the sending off changed the game but the sending off came as a result of a great move and in situations like the one we're in you need everything you can get. Fair play to him.

He needed games before to get up to speed and got injured against Everton last season when he was really starting to show what he could do. Same situation again, he just needs games....Looked class at times tonight

Starting to really find his feet in the league now. Looked much more comfortable watching him live compared to last time.

Where's it been confirmed as 4-2-3-1?

Yes Marv is in

Marveaux in, nice

Never mind the formation, I'm trying to work out what to wear to avoid freezing to death down St James tonight

That first quote from Pardew Dave has quoted isn't that bad. On another day we might've won that game but the second one is mind boggling really, christ You do wonder when he comes out and says things like that

Crows Nest, Rosie's, Cumberland Arms, Hotspur, 3 Bulls......any of those should be decent

Krul Simpson Williamson Colo Santon Anita Tiote Jonas Marveaux Cisse Ba

Derek Llambias always has been and always will be a two faced shit bag who knows nothing about football. An ex fucking casino owner manager/owner, fuck off

Need to start well and the crowd needs to stay patient. I understand making your feelings known at the end of a match but the way some fans carry on at matches is ridiculous, constant negativity and berating of players. Don't need that carry on in situations like this.
