Unreal. Not just the result but the way we held our own. Good job all round.

GTFI

Today Are you familiar with the past tense?

Why are we playing 4 CMs in a 4-3-3?

Some of these retards are stealing a living.

Well deserved for that run in November. Good job.

God was messing around on photoshop when he made Krul's face.

What's the story? Campbell had a prima Donna attitude at Carlisle which led to them terminating his loan.

Best one of those drunk Moyes tweets is the last one. 'Just had 5 minutes with Chris Woods if anyone's interested' Nope

Im afraid that post was only 94.44% correct with 17/18 words spelt properly.

No, we dont need context, we have stats. Yay for us.

Obertan just looks like he has no talent. Did fuck all at Man U and got shipped out to the first mug that would take him.

In terms of the coaching and the time between games I think our problem lies in the fact we spend so much of our time working on a strategy to nullify the opposition. I'm sure other teams do work on how to play against their next opponents but I get the feeling they spend a lot more time developing and working on their own game whereas for us that's not a priority. It explains why after 3 years we still don't really have a defined style or strategy and find ourselves changing everything from game to game. Total revamp of the coaching team could be as good as a new signing or even better imo.

He helps the fluidity of our play so much aswell. I love the way he just collects the ball and moves it on quickly and then *gasp* moves into space himself to give us an option. Quality little player being criminally underused.

Wasn't there a game around 93/94 when we played QPR away and we had about 5-6 players all out with flu, played a scratch team and we got thumped (seem to remember Sir Les scoring a couple against us?). Don't want to risk spreading it if he's ill. Supa Dupa Hoopa? 3-0 in 15 mins? Loftus Road? I was at that game, Big Les had a stormer even if he wasn't exactly facing a world XI. Mike fucking Hooper though, the ginger shambles

He's comparing a team which was forced to play with Ian Rush and John Barnes to the one we have today. Canny players them, like. Maybe not at 74 years old like we had but still.

It's a shock that our grinding out results and relying on a bit of magic / luck / phases of the moon tactic has resulted in us getting humped. That tactic is totally sustainable and reliable and is in no way liable to fall apart if one of the aforementioned factors don't run in our favour. We finished fifth for heavens sake, we need to play like this forever because it clearly works and is the way forward for football. Just look at the league table and shut up.

You would be the first one to shower pardiola with grief if it was him saying these words rather than Martinez. Anything Pardew says you will always find something to moan about. http://cdn.memegenerator.net/instances/500x/43526456.jpg

Lol Dyer, forgive me, I'd just got back from working away with long hours, thats my excuse anyway was probably a fraudian slip as I was thinking about vacuuming I wouldn't, it's really not healthy, you can burst blood vessels and stuff. Just get a dog and some peanut butter.

I'm sure that 1 win was against us... Sunderland..... we was their other win since they won the cup final though

He's claiming he's upholding traditions Bobby brought to the club, how the hell is that not a comparison? No, he's saying that SBR is an example and guiding light of those traditions, a reminder for him that he must strive to uphold the heritage and tradition of the club. Who gives a fuck anyway? Seriously? It's just more football manager rent-a-quotes. Nothing to froth at the mouth over. Pardew talks shite 99% of the time like most other managers in the league.

Can't people just enjoy a positive quote? You must be new here.

It's not a normal company though, it's a football club. We can't move during the season so if they wanted to start, say, next year then we'd need to find new training facilities, make sure they're ok for us and get them kitted out to our needs and specifications by June. I've got no problem with them taking a bit of time to do it. I'd rather they did it right and caused the minimum disruption to the squads than do it in a hurry and the players (including the academy and U21s etc etc) suffer for it.

We still need somewhere to train whilst it's being built too. The players won't just turn up at Benton one morning to find a bunch of hairy arsed builders going at the dressing room with sledgehammers. Presumably part of the delay is in arranging adequate facilities for us to use whilst Benton is out of commission.
