i'd like us to take this competition seriously. but then i'd like us to put out stronger teams than we ususally put out for the cup competitions. when you haven't won a trophy as long as us, i don't think you can afford not to select your strongest side. league position is important and there has to be some squad rotation but arguably we should be making the cups, our most realistic chance of winnign something, a priority. getting to the quarter, semi finals or the final of the uefa cup will definitely lift the profile of the club again. we just need to get past the tedium of the group stage - then it gets interesting.

Superb news mate - well done!

Flip you, you blinking melon

eh?

i can't understand why we haven't reverted to 4-3-3 like. 4-4-2 worked against cheslea, but i think we've played our best football using the 4-3-3. The only player that doesn't seem to enjoy it as much is Ba. But it's worth going with it simply because Ben Arfa is a different player when he has fewer defensive duties that come when he's stuck out wide in a 442. He can turn a game and win matches on his own when he's further up he pitch and not having to worry about tracking back all the time.

he wants to close that twitter account like. comign across like a total bell end

Disappointing game. I didn't think we'd win but I thought we'd make more of a game of it. First half was one way traffic. Krul's kicking was dreadful. Noticed jonas kicking off with him a few times for not throwing it out when he was in space. We made a better go of it second half but by then it was too late, not that it would have mattered anyway. The strikers were poor too I thought. Couldn't make it stick up front all game. HBA poor too - shame. All in all though an amazing season that won't be spilled by a handful of poor away performances. I've been to our four first away says of the season. Might not bother next season with this run!

exactly. germany is a great example of the kind of economy we could have been.

i really liked the first two albulms but they're trying a bit too hard now. they should go back to making dancefloor smashers with funny lyricals. i think they're taking themselves a bit too seriously and have lost a bit of the charm and the knack of writing a catchy tune in their recent stuff.

That I'd much rather pay higher taxes and have a better health service for all than pay for private care. But im fucked if I'm going to put up with a shit service when our taxes aren't providing what we need.

'There's no such thing as society' A famous quote that sums up the old witch well. It's the Tory mindset. Look after number one and fuck the have nots.

Isn't that what's left of our tail when were monkeys? I wouldn't mind if we'd kept a tail. Would have been useful for letting people know when you're happy, sad or up for a fight. Not to mention an aid to swinging from trees.

Can anyone think of any part of the human anatomy more pointless than the male nipple? Surely the next thing to fall off as part of our evolution.

I'm old enough to remember how she destroyed livelihoods, aye. I'm old enough to remember how she destroyed our national industries, pushed privatisation and decimated communities.

i'm going to this game. can't bastard wait.

another belter about wenger

could play into our hands. keep it tight at the back and look to hit them quickly on the counter attack after they throw everything forward.

absolutely. anything better than 5th is a massive bonus.

nice gesture by the club. shame it looks nowt like him. still, could be worse

shola's been mint this season. hasn't let us down at all. he's a solid player coming off the bench,

yakubu played last night didn't he?

fuck me, blackburn's support are a sorry lot. you'd think they'd put the crap against the board and one manager to one side until at least after the game. back your team that have 30 mins to beat the drop instead of endless kean out chanting for fuck's sake. it's embarrassing.

nice little drop of bushmills to take the edge off the thought of going back to work after a long weekend

beastie's at their best imo
