  1. A section of our away support are braindead, be the same lot who sing "sign on" and sing about stealing stereos at Anfield and just try to generally cause bother. Can completely see why older fans who travelled away in the 70s, 80s and 90s have packed it in because of those dickheads.

    Sunderland

    He came from Oxford United didn't he? Swear I remember reading a thread on Oxford's forum talking about how they've clocked on him slagging us off knowing the mackems would lap it up. And they will as well.
  3. 'Ben Arfa Control Vs. Stoke' on youtube. Amazing. We were great that day, Cisse, Tiote, Cabaye & Ben Arfa were just excellent. We were world beaters that day. Unbelievably good. Cabaye's pass to Cisse for the first was ridiculous tbh, not sure anyone else in the ground knew that ball was on. Unreal. That season. Whilst it wasn't short of Pardisms some days were utter magic. Tearing West Brom apart in 45 minutes in their own backyard, Ryan Taylor over the wall, Hatem v Bolton, Hatem v Blackburn, Ba hat trick at Stoke, hammering Fergie under the lights at SJP, the Stoke home game that you've mentioned, the unbeaten run at the start, finally winning at Stamford Bridge from those two goals, Cisse playing like the second coming of Andy Cole. Goddammit, may never see a season like that again in the near future.
  4. Genuinely don't know how people can still buy the shit before the game and at half time, there's cheaper (or equally priced) and far better tasting pints and pies all over the city. Drink before the game outside the ground or take a pie from wherever in with you.
  5. It's some Brazilian sitcom. I'd be watching loads of Blackadder and Only Fools & Horses if having to spend to vast majority of the year in a different country as well tbf.
  6. Not sure on what basis we would be worth more? Watford have invested in their squad over the last few years whilst we haven't. And in the training ground, infrastructure etc. If you think about what a new owner would need to invest in to get us up to speed: training ground improvements, academy investment, playing staff investment, you're looking at a lot of cash, probably £150m minimum. I wasn't sure what Watford had done from a facilities point of view so avoided mentioning that BUT we've certainly neglected them and you're right, if we are fortunate enough to get a new owner then they'll have to spend a bit on different aspects of the club. Just after a quick bit of searching, they have a -135 degrees cryotherapy chamber for recovery at the training ground. Hate to think what our lads are forced to make do with. Don't want to know tbh, it's embarrassing.

  8. We have to pick up points in this next set of games after the break. Hope we don't set up in this one like we did against Chelsea.
  9. Ridiculous reason for having to come off aside I thought he was much better today. Mendy wasn't getting in the crosses he usually puts in as much and Kenedy was bringing pressure off the backline when receiving possession in the first half. Good stuff.
  10. Is he not just another bitter ex player, in the sort of Bellamy category? He didn’t like the fan base when he was here because of the pressure etc. He sort of gets the craic going off what he's said tonight tbf to him.
  11. He said he was playing devil's advocate and for some of the bollocks he spouted was pulled up by Jenas and the presenter tbf. Doubt he's a Bishop pawn Yeah, it seems very unlikely tbh. He still keeps making the point about it being Ashley's own money though, it's infuriating. Doubt he's as informed and knows the ins and outs of the Ashley regime as Jenas and Humphrey are, who's Twitter mentions will be usually consisting of Newcastle fans.

  13. BT put Sky Sports to shame like, you are right. When it started BT was awful, but they've gotten far better. As long as they don't wheel out Savage and Owen they're miles ahead of Sky and much prefer it if they cover our games.
  14. Also fair play to the presenter for saying after FT that they'd 'assess the performances of City and United after the break'.
  15. Didn't disgrace ourselves. Decent account. All of our games in this tough run against the big sides we've lost just by the odd goal. Rondon, Fernandez and Dubravka all great. Onto Arsenal.
