  1. It's this for me. The last time we spent big in January we were trying to fight off relegation and had bought only Anita (of note) the summer before. January is a black hole for spending money and should really only be used if necassary. We're top of the league and have a capable squad to get us promotion so there is no need to over spend in a shallow market. I'm sure this is what the club is thinking and I would imagine Rafa agrees.
  2. This. He's probably just liked it because it's about him. Would have him back though fwiw.
  3. Wow that really is astronomically shit. Completely uninspiring. Looks like some footballer's third rate attempt at a clothing brand.
  4. 1-0 win. Gouffran embroiled in a 'does fuck all until hitting an absolute screamer late on' shocker.
  5. Pretty sure HBA is wearing toon shorts. Can't shake us.
  6. Was just about to say get Colback off before he gifts them a goal. Oh well.
  7. Diame beginning to look like the player we thought we'd signed. Keep plugging away and we'll get the 1-0 win I predicted. Just as importantly results seem to be going our way elsewhere for a change!
  8. Predict a boring 1-0 to us and I'll take it any day away from home. Particularly these, bit of a bogey team.
  9. Thought he'd found his level earlier on in the season. However, yesterday we actually needed a performance from him for the first time this season and he offered nothing. You could put him in the midfield of an underwhelming fifth tier side and I can't imagine he would noticeably improve them.
  10. They were close until like March IIRC. Remember drawing with them in January 2-2 which kept us very close. And even back in 92/93, despite us having had a decent lead, Portsmouth caught us and for just 24 hours (I think), overtook us. So there's no need to panic just yet. This is what I try to keep in mind. The fact the idea of another team being able to fight it out with us feels a little disappointing at this point only shows just how much of a dominating league leader we've been so far.
  11. How close were WBA to us throughout the 09/10 campaign? 11 point gap by the end but I'm sure I remember they were hot on our heels for the most part of that season.
  12. Sadly agree. Not even behind the striker? Think it would work well. Not that it matters as it's never happening.
  13. Never looked threatening in the final third. Not sure I can watch this.
  14. And yet Hayden is miles better than Colback, so I'm confused. That isn't really up for debate imo. However the theory that Shelvey is more effective for us alongside Colback might have something to it.
  15. He still deserves some credit for that season but my days did we have a lot of luck. Cisse couldn't miss if he tried during that streak. They were flying into the top corner off his shin. His conversion rate must have be astonishing Jan-May 2012.
  16. .co.uk beta showing Colback has a 90% win ratio. Hayden: 66%
  17. Starts playing for 10-20 seconds then cuts off. Working fine for me. Guess I'll just have to revert to teletext.
  18. strolling? taking the p*ss? Just seemed a peculiar reaction, along with the first. Had the Leeds lot been giving him stick?
  19. Anybody know what was with the non-celebration for the second goal?
  20. No away games have went to membership yet. Apparently they will and apparently some will go to public sale, but non so far and no prospect of it happening soon. Thanks. I guess the pipe dream of away days is just that for now then!
  21. Hoping to get to some away games this season. If I buy a membership (£35) what is the limit of away tickets you can buy with that membership for each game? Also, what's the availability of away games been like this season?
  22. Don't think they start the stream just yet. Ah, fair enough. Thought they might have the pre-match stuff Sounds like they had technical problems. During the last 2 matches nufctv radio has been very stop/start. Anyone else noticed this? (signal has been fine throughout.)
