We have much greater appeal than man city before they were bought out. Bigger stadium, more fans (One club city) shame we had not long been bought out

Don't actually need to sign anyone for that to be the strategy like. remember Beckham, Ronaldo, Ronaldinho etc

It isn't all like fm you know. A relegation release clause can mean a severance of a contract in the event of relegation, not just that a club has to accept offers. This is often the case when players sign during a relegation battle to protect themselves if the worst does happen. I am not saying that is the case for him but it is absolutely 100% possible and has happened in the past (Although more often than not with players who cost nothing to purchase) unsure whether or not ba cost them anything! All I am saying is come June 1st dependent how his contract was written it is POSSIBLE he could become a free agent!

How? Demba Ba signed a 3 year contract in Jan. May well have had a relegation release clause

He did an interview last week saying he would love to move to Barcelona if he decided to leave ARsenal. HAHAHAHA

texting whilst driving...i always make far too many spelling mistakes

Taunton is canny tbh mate or i thought it was anyway!

My head is up my arse this morning. I looked at the thred title and rather than linking Stephen Lawrence to the little black lad who was killed I for some reason linked it to Liam Lawrence the blonde twat who used to play for the Mackems who got caught shagging that lass with a few others and thought the thread was about that. It's gonna be a long day!

i am more worried about the dead looking palm tree tbh

well aren't you a little bundle of joy

He's a bell end who has put us 3 point better off! Don't mind him tbh he cares more than alot of the other lads seem to, shame he dosn't seem the be able to interract with other footballers without falling out with them!

FUCK FUCK FUCK we have already signed the the twat haven't we????

He does that everytime he gets subbed tbf gives a proper wave

Ding Dong!

I think spurs would have to subsidise some of the wages like or we are getting a really raw deal on that one

I want one of Avrams hot water bottle jackets for the winter like!

When Rio Ferdinand conceded a penalty against West Brom on January 1st, it was his first foul in the Premiership since April 11, 2010. Over the last 3 seasons, Sunderland’s Steed Malbranque has now been substituted 64 times, 18 more than any other player. Leighton Baines was the most creative defender for the 3rd season in a row. His 11 assists have only been bettered by Nani and Didier Drogba. When Ryan Giggs missed the match against Manchester City in November, it ended his run of playing in 32 consecutive derbies. Wigan had 5 captains during their November defeat against Manchester United. Two were sent off (Antolin Alcaraz and Hugo Rodallega) and 2 were subbed. 75 yellow cars picked up by Newcastle United - more than anyone else. There are now more Scottish managers in the Premiership as there are English, even more next season. Manchester United go into their final home game of the season against Blackpool knowing a win will set a new Premiership record of 15 consecutive home wins. Avram Grant wears a modified jacket, with a hot water bottle sewn into the lining, during winter months. 2,309 minutes played by Jamie Carragher this season without unleashing a single shot - that’s over 1,000 minutes more than any other player. Kevin Davies had to use Twitter earlier this season to ask followers how to cook a Pop-Tart. When Luis Suarez signed for Liverpool, he moved into Fernando Torres’ old house in the south of the city. Robbie Keane got into trouble in April for breaking West Ham’s club rules by riding on the back of a motorbike. By securing Premiership and Champions League winners’ medals this season, Michael Owen would’ve won every major club competition possible for a Prem player. 62.5% - percentage of goals scored from open play by Rafael van der Vaart that were set up by team-mate Peter Crouch. Florent Malouda has set up a league-high 111 goalscoring chances for his Chelsea team-mates. Earlier in the season, Andrey Arshavin signed up to appear in a comedy film called I’m Not Arshavin, where he mentors a fat football fan. Robin van Persie has averaged a goal every 99.3 minutes. There are now 49 Frenchmen playing in the Premiership more than any other foreign nationality. Chelsea are the only side to have won 5 games in a row. Liverpool legend John Aldridge refuses to call Fernando Torres by his full name after he left Liverpool for Chelsea in the Winter transfer window. The Emirates is the only stadium not to see a Premiership goal scored from outside of the area. Chelsea have 6 points from 6 games against Manchester United, Arsenal and Liverpool this season, after getting a maximum 18 last season. Aston Villa defender Eric Lichaj was called up for the United States - Poland game in October - by both sides. He eventually opted to play for USA. When asked why his team could beat Chelsea and Manchester United but not sides lower in the table, Mick McCarthy replied: “What’s the wing-speed velocity of the American swallow?” - a supposedly unanswerable question from Monty Python. Sandro only found out that he wasn’t in Tottenham’s original Champions League squad when he turned up at the airport to fly to Germany for their away game at Werder Bremen. The two players caught offside in the Premiership this season were Darren Bent at Sunderland (every 46.0 minutes) and… Darren Bent at Aston Villa (every 48.8 minutes.) If every shot that hit the woodwork in the Premiership had gone in, Arsenal would be champions.

Givet was an allardyce signing! already checked that, transfer was in 2009 and allardyce was 2008-2010!

was forced to use an unregistered agent apparently!

the whole team deserves a standing ovation regardless of sundays result. their efforts have been immense, end of!

I agree defo don't want the welsh in the prem its just not right!

also tbf to pardew he has suffered from not having Andy Carroll during his current reign, our top striker, and he has had to deal without the use of Ben arfa, I know only got 4 games in but still won us 3 points v everton. and arguably the second half of season is full of injuries etc and much harder! I still think I like hughton more tho

that is horribly embarrasing!

The cernts are now pictured on the official website picking up their shirts! http://www.safc.com/news/20110512/fans-sna...2256213_2358330
