Would that explain why he was scout at Coventry? I live local round there but have never seen a mention of him in the papers, although I wasn't even born in the 80's!

I reckon if Luque didnt get injured in his 2nd game for us, he would of been brilliant. He played quite well in his debut and was half decent against fulham before he got taken off if I remember right. Martins wasn't that bad for us either, him and Owen were too similar imo and the partnership was never going to work that well. Carl Cort could of been decent aswell if not for his injuries.

Really want to make the 4 hour journey up for this as its my 21st weekend, but i'm going out the night before, going to be severely hungover and its a 12.45 kick off. Not a wise choice driving that far after a good few bevvies!

Seriously, who would have thought we'd be 3rd in the table at this point in the season when he was appointed? I doubt you could have found 10 supporters who backed Ashley's decision to hire him. He's proved literally everybody wrong. Fair play Pardew and Ashley, just hoping we can carry a decent run on and who knows what can happen.

Absolutely fucking over the moon is all I can say, I was expecting to get beat tonight, hoping for a draw, walked in the pub seen we were 0-1 up started jumping round like mad. I still can't believe we're 3rd in the table at the end of October....with Alan Pardew in charge, its amazing. Fair play to Pardew he's put up with alot of stick since he joined and he's done absolute brilliantly. Lets carry this on and give me a nice birthday present by beating Everton!

drunk and disorderly so thats 3 drink related charges in what 2 months? Take a hint man and stop drinking If he's actually got a drink problem, I really think the club should help him through that, if anybody has seen someone suffer being an alcoholic im sure you'd agree. If he's just being an arse, get rid in january, he's blew his chances.

Be gutted if we lose this now.

Just wish my bets could go into extra time!!! Got to win this now!!

Hows Santon playing?

This game is so frustrating, every time we look like we've got a decent attack on, it all goes to pot.

Don't know why people thought we were gonna win 5-0.

He's quality, crossing is brilliant. Wouldn't be surprised if we were looking at him.

Looks a real talent, brilliant all rounder by the clips i've seen, i'd like to see him in a full game.

Bayern-Man City Draw Napoli-Villareal Draw Bristol City-Reading Draw Burnley-Forest Draw Doncaster-Hull Draw Quid on gets me 407.68.

Joey's right in everything he says except about Santon. I don't know how people can't agree with him. I'm still gutted he's left, but can see exactly why he did and I think most people would of in his situation.

Beattie free agent, we'll end up with him definately.

Has mike ashley been smoking crack seriously? Most probably our best player last season and allowed to go for free? Pardew is just a puppet and ashley is pulling the strings, I think we all know that for sure now, absolute disgrace that a fat wanker like him is allowed to ruin our club. I can't believe people are taking ashleys side with this either, barton is trying to expose the shambles that's going on behind the scenes of the club, fair play to him for doing so

I still swear it was the injury he got against fulham(?) that wrecked his career. His first game against man utd he was superb, had a goal disallowed for offside too.

Actually a bit sore about them signing wickham, could be a big player in future or could be another Franny Jeffers.

Meanwhile, Chelsea's England Under-21 international Daniel Sturridge could be set for a season-long loan to Newcastle, who are short of firepower following the sales of Andy Carroll and Kevin Nolan. Full story: Caughtoffside.com Probably bollox but it would be lovely

Think I seen something like this too.

Rob Lee leaving nearly made me shed a tear, always used to sign him back up on fm and fifa.

He as good in real life as in fm? lol

Seen a few people doubting his abilities because he isn't a regular in the Turkish side...look at Cole,Fowler, 2 strikers who never really did much for their countries but were brilliant strikers in their day.

I was just thinking reading about Gervinho and one reason for us not going for him is because of the ACN. Wouldnt Ba be in the tournament aswell being Senegalese?
