Holden McGroin

Enrique got a scare in the first few minutes with the wingers pace. He seemed to work him out after that though. His passing was gash throughout though.

I went with a Leicester City fan. He was very impressed with Guthrie and Smith and thought Ranger looked good 2nd half but was gash in the 1st. I thought we handled Howard quite well as they used him as a focal point. Hughton obviously got Smith to stand in front of Howard with Taylor behind and stifle the out ball from every set piece. Solid performance in the 2nd half. They barely got into our box.

In all reality Geremi is probably about 40 years old. He certainly looks it.

Ashley is a genius. He managed to save 4 months wages with Lovenkrands!

I like it.

Why would you not have a wallet??? I keep change in my pocket though.

A centreback that cant stay on his feet, isnt a good centreback

I didn't realise the gulf in class between the 2 leagues was this big. Smith actually looks like a footballer now.

He isn't going to put any more money in though, is he? I want him out asap in case he changes his mind and decides to hang around. I think that comment was made when Assley thought he could sell it. If he thinks he can keep the majority of the current squad together and add a few players here and there to get us back up then we are going to be a lot more attractive to buyers.

£4m colo £4m Guti £2m Xisco Makes sense.

I wouldnt mess with him.

I find it hard to believe they are paying in £60k per week.

Its getting to the stage now where I want Ashley to stay another year, put enough money into getting us back up then sell out in a years time. Surely this must be more beneficial (financially) for him as well.

Depends how it was put to him. I could see it calming down the fans if anything.

one of the only players (along with Geremi) I would let go.

I noticed this recently. Is it a wig ?

I bet he wished he never got called up for England now.

It also means there is no 'official' bid......until Lescott leaves.

@ Chris Farley Im in tears. Brilliant.

The goals have been on SSN a few times already.

Absolute scum. I'd like to hear the story behind this when it comes out.

3 clean sheets in a row. Nice.

Very good.

Classic. No doubt the announcement on Monday (if there is one), will be that the fat twat is staying another year.

Looks like a poor mans Bjorn Kristensen.
