because its written by different people, has different articles and is shite but apprently I get no other choice

Particularly gizmodo, since they launched giz uk I can't actually go on .com anymore since it auto sends me to .co.uk

seem like our kind of deals too free, hopefully we can give everton a smashing on saturday and drenthe will be impressed enough with it all to fancy coming here at the end of the season

Ridgewell would be a good buy, LB and centre hald cover in one at a decent standard Maiga seems the likely striker although if we're going for hopes rather than expectations then someone like Cisse or Sow would be amazing as for midfielders I have no idea, we seemed relatively well stocked numbers wise but some additional quality to keep the likes of smith off the bench would be nice

Today should be the day when my 50meg hardware comes

For the sake of clarity, we've not beaten anyone in the top half. Only 30% of our games have been against top half opposition, so your "for the most part" point isn't quite right. That said, Everton are just above the relegation places and haven't beaten anyone outside the bottom 5. Can't see where he get's his expectations for a win. we only finished 12th last season though we're not exactly long established top half team as it stand

problem for me is his insistance that we havent "played anyone" as if everton qualify as being someone

we've now played Arsenal, Spurs and Stoke at the britannia we've played teams around us for the most part and come out with win or draws, just what we need to be doing, theyre the important games for us, not the likes of chelsea, man u or city

i like it

I thought it was a fair booking, he was off the ground studs up

given how bitter stoke seem about Ba not signing for them I have a feeling the knee was an excuse on their part if he came and wasnt impressed enough to sign harsh on Krul there tbh, he had no real saves to make and against stoke he had to command his area a lot against some big strong bullies and he did so admirably, as well as any other keeper could've tbh, he dropped one ball which he shouldnt have but thats it really, always did enough otherwise I think you're giving the Stoke fans more powers of reasoning than they deserve there. The booing was stupid but that's football tbh. He nearly signed for them and didn't, therefore he was the villain of the piece for the night. Of course he shut the fuckers up in the best way possible. for some reason at the moment I read all your posts as 2Js, I think its the avatar

Hmmmm.. That's what I heard. But my soud quality wasn't perfect so who knows. I know it won't be the last we hear about it if that is the case. Dirty thugs. From what I heard, they didn't say Monkey. All I heard was "Demba Ba, is a wanker". Unless Sky did turn down other chants I didn't hear. At the very start, as he was the only 'coloured' person on the pitch, the home end chanted 'OOO OOO OOO' as in monkey talk. They also did the 'is a wanker' stuff, but unlike last year it did get to the team. Good game apart from the idiot behind us getting thrown out mid way thru the first half. Tosser. thought they were just booing him tbh

From the BBC report. Was I pissed or was our pen not twice as clear cut as there's? Ba stepped in with his shoulder, huth did a full on shove. thought they were about equal myself

loved spotting that everytime it made me chuckle (easily pleased) simpson really adamantly demanding it when he was stood next to Pulis then just chucking it back to the ballboy straight away

ah I saw tom mention Cassano on twitter last night but didnt find out what the problem was, hope he can make a full recovery and play again Bad about gattuso too but I struggle to give a shit tbh, obviously hope he recovers too but hes not half a little cunt

Agreed Defence was brilliant throughout tonight, really well organised, never phased by stokes bully tactics, colo is getting better and better as a player and a leader

Great from us tonight, perfect away team performance (as gary neville put it ) Ref was gash, how huth is leaving the field without even a booking is beyond me, dirty cunt through and through commentary was starting to bug the shit out of me in the end, everytime we defended well they said we "got lucky"

Pen to us

Perch on for cabaye

Refs been shit, where huths punishment for smashing Taylor? But that's a pen? Shite

That's taking the piss, throw ten yards from where it should be and flying in with boot and elbow up on taylor

Ref better pull them up on this throw in thing Just done it again taking it a good 5 or 6 yards forward from where it went out

Raylors going off for Santon hopefully Jonas will help him out, carry on his good work tonight no looks like theyre waiting for half time
