I've had a couple tonight, but pretty sure I checked early on and Hajduk split were drawing, tel aviv were winning ... I remember thinking 'aye, i've got this'

Once more proving, that i should give up betting, on anything. Ever.

Ronnie Gill says Joe is furious with Marsielle about this, FURIOUS. Should help our cause.

Morecambe -1 .... easy money

There's a meme there somewhere.

Where's my ticket mother fuckers

proper saga

It's a premium in case you (on the off-chance) see Cabaye in the changing rooms Sounds like a match programme

SPIES I TELL YOU!

Understandable a lot of positivity has went out the window considering he said it's his strongest side and is most likely the team/tactics we'll be starting the season with (new signings aside).

There'll be a lot to defend in this thread in the coming months that's for sure

He has no business on the wing full stop.

I don't expect Sissoko to play on the wing in the Prem, that's just my opinion. We are chasing a winger so it's not like he thinks Sissoko/Jonas is the answer and it's crazy for people to think he'll start them wingers against City. It really isn't, if we haven't brought a winger in by then.

Only positives I can see is the players coming in, but if they continue to get played out of position it means next to nowt.

I don't understand how people can defend it when, even if we didn't see the game yesterday, most people know exactly how Pardew has them set up anyway considering we sat through 38 games of it last season. It's so depressingly obvious that nothing has changed whether the season has started or not. As Ian says about the 4-2-3-1, it's not the answer and not going to look any better the more he plays it.

Should have just quoted Santoon's post

Yeah I'm not fussed about the result. We've had cracking pre-seasons before and gone on to have a terrible season. My main worry about our pre-season is that (going from reports/live updates) we haven't changed a thing tactics-wise, despite our abysmal season. We're still playing players out of position and Shola/Jonas (albeit he had a good game according to reports from yesterday) are still seen as major players. We're probably still going to attempt the Long-Tayl/Willy for every set piece.

Think it was the Wolves game that let me down for about £90. Cock faces.

sissoko on the wing v city

Wish he was leaving the country

"You need to be honest enough to admit them and look at when and why they were made" That would be a start you useless prick. Once you realise your tactics are shit, you need to change them. Cunt. Doing the same shit now as you were last season. Wanker.

He hasn't got a f***ing clue. Doesn't want to leave certain players out so shoehorns other players into unfamiliar positions (positions they have no f***ing business being in) to accommodate them. f*** OFF.
