Epic fail for the Seasiders there...

Good finish by Bpool there!

Fkin Fulham...

Get Saylor up front on a four and half year contract!

David Beckham 

I hope that cunt never darkens the doors of this club...

Sami's season is over!  Maybe his career with the Toon if we pick up a couple of class strikers!

Finishing XI?                     

                    Krul

Simpson  Saylor  Coloccini  Enrique

(Lua Lua) Barton  Guthrie  Ferguson

                (Best)  (Kuqi)

                    Krul

Simpson  Saylor  Coloccini  Enrique

Raylor    Barton  Guthrie  Ferguson

        Shameobi  Lovenkrands

To be fair, happy with that team.  Only difference is I would have started Sammiobi or G-Unit rather than McLoven.  It is important we finish above the unwashed, otherwise they will be telling their grandkids about this moment!

Pardew rubbished reports of links with West Ham's Demba Ba and Wigan winger and former Magpies player Charles N'Zogbia as 'unsavoury' due to the positions of both teams.

 

Doesn't mean we shouldn't cheer for Weeegan to go down so we can pillage wor Zog back, never mind the fact that their fans do not deserve a premiership berth...

If we're winning and get a pelanty, he should take it.

a.k.a. finish seventh?

 

What a strange thread title ...

Finish 7th doesn't sound as good!  Plus, we need to set realistic targets, and looking at the established order of things gives us an idea of where we should try to barge into the pecking order.

He'll probably be 2nd choice next year, hope he can keep up the standard he had going before he got injured. He's got the determination, a lot of good physical attributes and has a very strong goals record so

I fucking hope not!  Yes, he's a reasonable player, but if he's our second best CF next season I think we'll have failed in the transfer market.

It would appear that the top six places are sewn up without spending well beyond our means.  This also goes for everyone else too.

So...  Should our target for next season be 7th place, winning the 'Best of the rest'?

Realistic rivals - Everton and Villa are the big two.  I can't see Stoke, Fulham, Sunderland or Bolton putting up a serious challenge for 7th, so we should definitely be finishing 7th-9th.

I think if we spend 30 million plus we can comfortably finish 7th and perhaps in 2-3 years time challenge Liverpool, Tottenham and Arsenal for 4th-6th places.

Unless the financial fair play rules amount to anything (which I don't think they will) the top three have it sewn up until their sugar daddies leave town.

Simpson would be a real weak point in a 4-3-3. I always feel you need your full backs to provide some attacking width in that formation.

His crossing has been good at times though, and I feel he is still improving.  I think he could develop into a class RB or RWB TBH.

i think the bristol keeper has been doing alright. given that keepers seem to be a weak point in women's football in general.

No shit!  Most of them can't even touch the crossbar!

Is anyone watching the Womens' FA Cup Final?  Some decent attacking play, but Jesus Rollerblading Christ, they just don't know how to defend or keep goal!!

I would fancy:

                    Forster

Simpson  New CB  Colo  New LB

                      Tiote

            Barton            Jonas

                        Barfa

                New CF  New CF

I reckon two big strong strikers would do the job.  Having Barfa behind doing the pretty stuff (or Nolan as backup) would allow two big players to sit high up and bully goals out of teams.  I also fancy that Barton and Jonas could play in a more narrow fashion, pulling in to help Barfa when required.  It's not like we're spoilt for crossing ability, and Jose going will get rid of the Left Flank tactic.  If we need to spread play, New LB and Simpson can push up since Tiote will sit back and provide cover.

In:  N'Zogbia, Carew, Hitzelsperger, Kuyt, Van Aanholt, Davies.

Out:  Enrique, Kuqi, Smith, Campbell, Forster (QPR Loan), Ranger (Loan), Kadar (Loan).

You heard it here first.  100% guaranteed true!

Why Liverpool though?  They're not a big club anymore!  Not going to win anything for a long time, fans are cunts and financial uncertainty!  It's like when Zog 'promoted' himself to Wigan.  Look where that got him!

I really hope we continue to progress and one day have European football while Carroll and Jose look on from home in Merseyside...

What a fat shitcunt!  Got to be up there with Luque and Boumsong in the bad signing stakes!  He looked like a pub team player when he was on the pitch and has been a total prick off it. Fuck off back to Laahndahn you fat bent twat.

Our teams from 1996 or 2003 would have won this years league. All of the top 3 have declined over the last 5 years.

Irish rugby already has Ulster as a team, which crosses the border anyway. Football is alot more divided. I think there would be some upset chaps in East Belfast if they tried a united Ireland football team!

It's fucking scandelous that the fenian cunts are taking players from Norn Iron. Two completely seperate countries FFS.

I'd say keep Harper as 3rd keeper/coach and let the other two fight it out. One gets the league, the other gets the cups.

Id work 18 hour days, 7 days a week for what he is earning. Teetotal and eating only salad and protein shakes. For a decade.
