Sort of nervous, because I'm feeling confident about this one. Whenver there is optimism, we seem to fail, plus we have a shit record against these! 2-0 I reckon. Best and Cabaye. Hope Ba scores though, need to get him on a roll!

Doesn't that Randy Savage post on here?

Isn't he on TalkSport this morning? Should be a write up of it on their website later if anyone is interested, there was last time.

Lover may well be a poor/average striker, but all his penalties for us have been superb. A bit like big Shola really when either of them take a penalty, I'm hardly even nervous anymore

They seem to know an awful lot about us. Like when HBA has played, who he was subbed on/off against etc. Fucking tragic

33.3% delighted, 33.3% worried he'll get smashed by some thug, 33.3% dreading the the summer, when he'll probably be sold by MA. Dean Kiely seemed to like him anyway, said it always looked like something was about to happen when he was on the ball. The other commentator was such a weapon I stopped paying attention to him, think he liked him as well though Anyone think he'll be on the bench Saturday? Got a feeling he won't be and will be eased in slowly like Gosling, hope I'm wrong mind. I think it's fair to assume he won't be anywhere near to seeing out his contract so it's best to just enjoy his time here however long that ends up being I said that when we got him on loan, still going to be hard to take when/if he leaves.

Right footed, but usually plays wide left. Depends if that bollock headed twat Kean realises how poor Raylor is and switches him. McLeish missed a trick Saturday.

Sounds fairly promising. Another reserves/friendly run out during the International break, then start against Spurs?

Whlist Ryan Taylor is playing, I think Jonas will remain on the left wing. Just have a feeling Pards isn't convinced by Taylor's defending (who is?) You can see from how deep Jonas sits that either Jonas, AP, Raylor or all three are not comfortable with Ryan at left back. Hurry up and get fit Santon FFS.

I sort of agree with your original point TBF. He's making quite a few fuck ups and seems a bit nervy, but he's entusiastic and also talks a lot of sense. It's just so hard to like that guy! Still, it's better than listening to Jamie "when I was at Liverpool, when I was at Bournemouth, when I was at Tottenham, when my Dad was manager at Bournemouth zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz Redknapp. Owen was literally a greyhound was he? Oh and Torres was literally on fire, Charlie Adam plays at Quarter Back The bloke is such a wanker. I genuinely think if you spent more than an hour in the company of Souness you'd suffer from depression and want to kill yourself, that man is such a negative, boring cunt. Basically most the sky pundits are just as irritating, so many of them know sod all when they get paid a shit load to have more than just a basic knowledge of the top 6 clubs and to talk about past glories (look no further than the Soccer Saturday panel). I actually quite like Wilkins, but he does say "My word" an awful lot. Excuse the rant, you've set me off Tron

Hmm I dunno like, the cringeworthy interview he did with Mancini, saying Leon Best has came through the ranks with Shola, then went onto mention it another couple of times saying how they knew each others game inside out, Jonas has played left back numerous times for Argentina and there was another massive fuck up from him that has escaped my memory, little help anyone?

Hope he starts and plays about 60 minutes. Will be a bit of an anti climax if he plays for 10 minutes at the end!

Can't take anyone on Talksport seriously. They over exagerate a point and go on the wind up all the time, trying to be a bit contreversial to get callers in. The annoying thing is, when they're not trying to stir it up, I actually quite like Collymore and even Durham, think he's actually quite a good journalist TBH. Gough and Quinn talk some right shite on there, haven't got a fucking clue, at least Big Mick always shouts down anyone bad mouthing NUFC though, usually with made up stats and facts

'Doesnt work with our pass and move style' Absolute shite from them. The minute Carroll plays they go long to him, when he doesn't they can't go long as it's only Suarez up top on his own, I don't really see them playing some wonderful pass and move style. Dogleash isn't a world class tactical mastermind, even though the scousers seem to think so. They have wasted so much money on such mediocre/half decent ish players and seem to lack a real gameplan from what I've seen so far under his management. Adapted the formation to accomodate Carroll at the weekend, then proceeded to play without any sort of cohesion, they were void of ideas and looked lost, totally and utterly clueless. The amount of times were there was no movement in front of the back 4, or players looked uncomfortable with and without the ball was unbelievable. I see King Kenny is just blaming it on the refs and refused to comment again on the sending offs on Sunday, probably because the decisions were spot on so he couldn't have a whinge, depressing old cunt.

Anyone read/hear Bruce's post match comments? The ramblings of an insane man. He mentions the derby loss twice (he really can't let that go). "Mass hysteria from the fans and the media just because we lost to Newcastle" or words to that effect. I suppose the utter dross his team serves up, a terrible home record, money spent, players leaving and the same old excuses from Brewcie have nowt to do with this 'mass hysteria' does it you hopeless cunt. The bloke is such a cunt, I struggle to even laugh at him now. Just an irritating red faced, rotund wanker.

Aguero and Yaya aren't bad either!

:lol: Got to love wearyside for trying, bless him.

Apart from bloody Shola. What on earth was he thinking bringing him on? I thought Shola did well after coming on - better than Ba showed. Pardew probably wanted to give him the chance to get over the stinker at QPR and show that he can rise above the over-the-top criticisms he's getting. notsureifserious.jpg He was fucking woeful, had one decent shot, give away 2 or 3 needless fouls, ran the ball into touch at one point and swaggered about in his usual arrogant and lethargic way. He was a disgrace, as per usual. Still, after all that, I can't help but like the bloke

Wow, some massive comments in here, total shite, waste of money, utter wank etc etc. Not his biggest fan and can eventually see him out the side unless he improves massively. Personally, I have been more impressed by him with each game that has gone by and can see a gradual improvement. He's infuriating at times, final ball is often poor and should take his man on more, but I think he's done ok. Usually tidy with his passing, when he gets motoring he's fucking rapid, has some good tricks and skills, plus he's got a great leap (even though he does mistime it a bit). I also think we need Jonas left side to help Raylor and not sure I want Marveaux on the right wing. Would also play him against Burn, especially if Givet is going to play left back. Got torn apart against Fulham and Arsenal.

Seen him against us and Wolves, been utter shite in both games. Hardly surprising when McLeish is the manager though is it? I know Zog is always a sulky cunt, but he looks even more depressed than usual playing for Villa.

Karl Henry is a thug, an absolute donkey who literally just smashes people, he has no footballing ability. It was also he who started all this war of words and decided he was going to kick seven shades out of Barton. Since then he's lost 4-1 and 3-0 when playing against him, Barton has also arguably been MOTM on both occassions. Not sure I believe this prick, even if I did, does it give Henry carte blanche to start booting him up in the air? Strange how he only mentions it now he's been made to look a cunt by Barton. #helmet

A lot of people seem to criticise his all round game and say he offers little. I'd counter that by saying he's the best all round forward we have. He uses both feet, not rapid but certainly not slow, wins a lot in the air, got a few skills and has an awkward technique that seems to help against defenders. He's hardly a world beater, but I don't just see him as a 'poacher' he has more to his game than just that. Gets offside a bit and looks lethargic at times, but I'm a big fan of his TBH. I've said before, if his name was Leonardo Bestinho and we bought him for £10m from Benfica, he'd get a more praise. He's not a big, fashionable name and he had a poor start to his NUFC career and I think some fans are still conscious of that. Glad to see quite a few coming round now and not just moaning and complaining about how shit he is.

My god Stoke were bad, Begovic should have saved the first and the last goal as well I thought. Fair play though sunderland, kept us in 4th place, ta very much.
