Monroe Transfer

Without decent home form we really will be in trouble. Sounds like we really needed the likes of a Ben Arfa today. Very long season ahead of us and I'm certain we'll be fighting for our lives come the end of the season.

What does it take to get banned from this board? This guy's presence here is a detriment to the site.

Basing your further education around the football club you support...

Jesus wept man.

That thread is nearly 3 and a half years old you tard. I forgot I even created it. Abysmal 'banter'.

Not being funny but who the fuck are you? I've not seen any intresting posts from you and if you use words like troll I don't think I ever will. So stop the keyboard hero act and fuck of! Remember one guys view cant save the world! Devastating post.

Not being funny mods but surely this guy deserves the banhammer for being such a boring troll? You know you should call it a day when even Kevin can mock you with ease.

How long is this awful show on for? Don't watch it but I'm sick of hearing about it.

How many WKDs did you down in Ibiza?

They really love to kick us when we're down, don't they.

I doubt Hughton really believes that, but he has to go with whatever Ashley et al are planning - i.e. not spending any money. Then again, I trust their word as much as Fish does, so maybe we will add to the squad (as we desperately need to) in January. Either way - does this really need to be said now? On top of the Ben Arfa injury and 2 losses in a row, what's the point in depressing the fans even further? If Hughton was asked that by a journo I'd rather he just said "I don't know".

So they've reset all the ranked stats... Shambles.

Maybe you should stop watching the X Factor and educate yourself as to what equals actual quality TV programming.

carla lane is the black dude from Black Eyed Peas. I mean, he wishes he was.

Their servers are bad for just about every major title they put out with online functionality. For a while after launch, at least. Bad Company 2 was terrible for server-based issues for a very long time, and for all I know (haven't touched it in a couple of months) isn't fully fixed now either.

I don't blame Hughton for not wanting to take many risks with younger players, we're hardly a settled PL side. I'm sure they'll get more chances later in the season as the injuries mount up, and if/when we get a bit more comfortable in terms of our position in the table.

Sounds like you're the lucky one then. Forums around the would are full of complaints about the state of the game. Does seem to be a few out there such as yourself who have yet to come across these issues, count yourself fortunate in that case. 360 player here for the record, might not be so bad on PS3/PC.

I don't know what's worse; the fact that you come up with such drivel or the fact that you watch X Factor in the first place.

My 'top' 3, in this order. Cattermole is an idiot and lacks intelligence, Henry doesn't. Henry knows he's a thug and he seems to enjoy being one. de Jong is just a dirty, dirty player and today was simply yet another example of this. There are more but these three have always stood out as players I simply can't stand. They represent anti-football and get away with it because the media portrays them as 'honest' players.

I'd be delighted albeit surprised if he made it back by February. Getting a player of his calibre back for the last - and most important - third of the season would be a big boost. Real shame that decent young players on our books such as Ben Arfa and Gosling will miss so much of the season. The 25 game thing isn't on my mind right now, I just hope the guy gets back to full health quickly. He must be gutted. When he's back we'll see what the situation is and what his future holds whether it's with us or another club.

This has to be one of the most buggiest and unstable games I've ever played. It's an absolute mess to be quite honest. Bear in mind that it's already had 2 title updates (on the 360). It's crashed to a frozen screen at least 5 times for me today alone, I've been able to play exactly zero teamplay/club matches, I've had EA account dropouts whilst on the menus countless times, some of the achievements are broken, and all this is on top of horrendous quitter problem this franchise suffers from. I daren't start really getting into career mode if it's anything like the rest of the title. If you haven't bought it then I'd honestly put off purchasing it for a while, at least until it's patched again.

Xabi Alonso might not agree with that quote.

Well he was good whilst it lasted.

Guess Ben Arfa won't play 25 matches after all then.

2-0 to them.
