They reckon they're going to be bought by . . . Vladimir Pewtin.

Lacking that little bit of quality in the final third If I'm being brutally honest Dust/sleeves/socks Well yuh know . .

If this happened, it would be only the second time that all three promoted clubs went straight back down. The other time was in 1998.

How can you commit 0.5 of a foul? Did a teammate contribute the other 0.5? But yes, can't get much more innocuous than that.

Sounded like Rafa wanted Krul to bugger off and find himself another club, and Krul didn't want to.

Pardew left. Virtually all players suck up to their current manager to some extent if they want to be picked to play.

Quite interesting if you've got an hour to kill. Seems like a good guy. Very upbeat, fast talker, almost a bit manic. Lives in Cullercoats (even though he's with Watford now) and loves it. Was in awe of players like Cabaye, Demba Ba, Jonas, even Ryan Taylor. Had a bit to say about Rafa's aloofness and PR skills and Rafa's falling out with Tim Krul. Thinks Woodman will be a top PL goalie because he's so intense and driven.

Sorry. The Cabbage clichés still trigger me and probably always will. I can't help it. No offence.

"Quietly confident" is such a Bruce-ism. Up there with all the stuff about dusting down, sleeves, socks and lacking a little bit of quality in the final third. It's so wonderful that he's not here spouting this shit any more. If I'm being brutally honest . . .

That's an interesting site. Reminder that when we dispensed with the Cabbage's services we were bottom, having amassed two points and scored two goals in eight PL games. www.11v11.com/league-tables/premier-league/20-october-2021/

It's really quite sad to see the extent of their resignation and defeatism. And yes, it is a thing of beauty.

No cats for him, like.

Or his uncle who did such a good job of supervising Inspector Clouseau.

I imagine a part of the reason we took him was just to nobble Burnley.

Never gets old, this.

Well, he started a rebellion here.

Except for the Taggart bit.

Sniper's Dream

Dead Meat.

Farewell Mr. Loaf

Draw with multiple red cards and serious injuries

Well, if the players wouldn't like it we definitely shouldn't do it.

Pretty sure he's not dead.
