It's getting worse like. Hard to diffirentiate from The Mag half of the time. "Rafa refusing to panic. Here's why." Click on it, hardly any quotes and just a load of filler, page crashes. f*** off.

Not seen enough of our games to comment too much. But he looks solid and is a no nonsense type. Always loved having a right/left combo at centre back.

If I was a pro athlete and I was on serious wedge. I think I'd probably hire a chef. You'd happily fork out big money for a top personal trainer and your diet is clearly just as important. So if you're shit at cooking, don't have time or a bit lazy with cooking the right things. Then what's the issue? I'd probably have a butler and a gamekeeper and all

Obviously he is far more talented than someone like Guthrie or Peter Whittingham. But as an example, I remember them always looking good in this division, due to them getting so much time and space on the ball. Shelvey really surveys what's going on further up the pitch and isn't afraid to try passes most our players could only dream of pulling off. He's doing it on a consistent basis and they aren't just hopeful Hollywood balls, like he has been accused of trying too often in the past. I'd like to see him add more goals to his game. As his technique really is superb and he seems to be getting in advanced positions on a fairly regular basis. Getting goals from midfield is always an added bonus and we haven't really had that since Nolan, and he was more of a second striker, anyway. EDIT: Forgot about Wijnaldum but he didn't really contribute fuck all as a midfielder when he played for us.

Of course you shouldn't have to go to prison for cheating if people are suggesting that, then they are a bit dim. But it seems like a bit more than just cheating. The whole thing was sordid as fuck and makes for uneasy reading. I find it strange that some good mates of mine are labelling the girl a slag, saying she should be made to stand trial, buzzing for Ched etc etc. The whole thing is a mess and I don't think either party comes out of it well. But I just don't understand the logic in lauding Evans as some sort of hero?

Seems to be your thing. :lol:

"When I dated her. She used to get really horny after going for a kebab and was up for all sorts." Not Guilty.

That moke Adrian Bevington was on Talksport this morning. Going on about why Southgate should get the job, because of how good his press conferences are Saying the one after the Slovenia game was the best press conference from an England manager in years. Just waffling on about how we should back him and he should get the job going forward. How he will have us playing more positive football and you can see the early signs of that already...... Utter drivel, basically. Also kept referring to players wanting him to stay. Well, that sounds the same as some of NUFC's 'stars' under Pardew. They know they will get an easy ride. Henderson is at the front of the queue saying he should get the gig, I see If there are still those that share these ridiculous views at the FA, which seems highly likely. Due to all of the media speculating on him getting the gig full time, should we beat Scotland. Then no wonder we are in such a mess. Gareth Southgate as manager is even less uninspiring than Fat Sam

Matt Ritchie's volley against them last season comes to mind. But that is the first one that comes to mind, due to it being a year ago and the fact he now plays for us! I am struggling after that?

"Findus Crispy Pancakes with roast beef and black pudding filling." Has to be Allardyce or Bruce.

Look forward to that Cardiff game. Picked a good one to go to, it would seem -
Might still travel up for Sheff Wed on Boxing Day. But I'm a bit undecided. Sounds bad, but with it now being on TV, I'm not sure I can be arsed with the journey. Forest away suits me. I can rarely make Saturday games, so I think I'll try to get to that one. Never been to the City Ground either and it's been on my list for a while.

That Red Dwarf pic The second Dwight Gayle on the bottle of broon, looks a bit like McClaren

WTF is that, wow the amount of "it's all about us" in their Yedlin piece is staggering. I'm not about to defend Ryder but these are pretty stock questions, no matter who the player has played for before. The ironic thing is they slate him for being back up to Anita, but they know full well he would start at RB for them, who as they like to remind us are in the Premier League. That whole article is filled with negative, "poor me" s***, which sums up the state of their club perfectly. "No one is listening, DeAndre." But we'll write an article about your quotes, dissect them line by line and analyse each one individually

Krul on a bad day is better and I actually rate Darlow as a fairly decent keeper.
-
Spot on. Can't really watch the likes of Soccer Saturday, or listen to most of the drongos they have on Talksport, for this exact reason. He is a complete WUM and a bit of a dick. But Adrian Durham doesn't always toe the 'PFM' line. He is one of the only ones I can remember openly calling out Pardew on his bullshit and bad record.
-
Didn't he get beat in the air and the centre back nodded it down? Good that he was up there making a nuisance of himself, though. Was involved in the 3rd and 4th and it sounds like he had 2-3 headers at goal, too.
-
I couldn't think of any tall white players, with a similarly infuriating style. But I take your point
-
Did he head the ball against someone else or into his arm or something? Looks like it takes two touches before it goes in.
-
Your boycott over Ronnie? It's the first game I've been to in a year and the second since Pardew's first 0-3 against Sunlun. The club's vaguely on the right track now so I'll go to the odd one when I can unless that changes. I was only watching on that crappy live stream. But I tend to agree with your original point. We did the same towards the end against Villa. But I'm not sure how much of that was by design? I don't care if I so arrogant. But this league isn't really very good. It feels like we are letting teams back into games, that we should win with ease. Letting them grow into the game, get some momentum and it ends up quieting the fans down, or worse, it makes them restless. I know Rafa can't help the fact that strikers miss easy chances. But we do seem to go a bit cagey after getting a goal. Can't really say it's not working so far. As we have been seeing out a lot of games fairly comfortably, after getting a lead. But it could end up being costly in the long run and I do sometimes wish we would annihilate teams, when we are clearly so much better than them. Still early days and we started off in a similar vein last time. Seem to remember a lot of scrappy, close wins at the start. Before going mental in the second half of the season, when we started destroying teams.

Just to add to the lazy comparison theme. I thought in the last two games, he has looked like the worst parts of Shola and Sissoko combined. Seems to have a decent amount of skill. But his feet seem too slow to make it work and he loses the ball on a regular basis. Shola. He runs into blind alleys and tries to bundle the ball past players. Sissoko. I was only watching on that live crowd feed, that got taken down towards the end of the game. So a bit hard to judge too much last night. But he doesn't appear to be getting any better and seems to almost always make the wrong decision. Takes an age to do anything and always wants an extra touch or three.

Imagine being excited at the possibility of Allardyce returning as manager
