Out of order imo. Contact Diouf privately and ask him if he wants to make a statement. There's no need whatsoever to announce to the media that you'll be contacting Diouf to ask him whether Emre racially abused him. The FA are fucking thick.

Are you having logic issues again? In my opinion, i.e. no-one could prefer Shola over Sib if they believe they are at best both backup players, therefore thay must believe he is worth a starting place. I have no confidence in Shola being able to come on from the bench and defend/break/attack set pieces as required as well as Sib. But you see, I'm not a big Shola fan, but he has some tricks so he can come off the bench and do something, potentially? I agree Le Sib is better in the air. Not sure what you mean re: 'break set-pieces' though. I think he means on the break. Something which Sibierski is shocking at because of his pace imo.

But that's total cobblers though. It makes absolutely no sense.

Are you having logic issues again?

Simply because Sib and has half a brain to understand the game and doesnt fuck up most of our attacking play with always new and improved ways of doing so. It is a hatred based on facts. God knows I've observed enough of onfield action to base my judgement. Shola was in his "best ever form" whilst carrying that injury. I doubt we'll be seeing a version of him that is so much more mobile. On a tangent, seeing Chopra banging them in is annoying, he certainly wouldnt have made as our next local number 9, but he was never given as much of a chance as Shola. I wish our number 23 would "find his level" asap. Anyway this has been an enjoyable enough season without him, I'll certainly enjoy what is left. We've missed Shola a lot this season imo. That you can't see that is because you're blinded by your dislike of the lad.

Spackajack.

Seriously Matt, you want to have a word with yourself about this Shola hatred thing. When Shola was doing similar stuff to Sibierski - scoring but not looking like a world-beater, you had nowt but abuse for Shola. Even when he scored you'd still slag him off. Shola is plainly the better player of the two even when carrying a long-term injury.

well by that logic then you either rate Sib or think Sol is shit You'll have to give me your definition of logic, because I don't see any in that conclusion. 1. Commentator: Sib = Sol = Good 2. Gemmil: Sib = Crap 3. Gemmil agress with commentator 1+2<>3 Yeah, I didn't think you were making any sense. Cheers for confirming that.

There's big gap between 'brilliant' and that. He is a very decent player. Him and Martins link up well, and he more than deseved an extension (maybe not 2 years though). And is the kind of player you want as part of a squad. "Very decent". Couldn't quite bring yourself to say good. He's decent. I'll give you that. Where do you see him in terms of the squad then? Cos I see him coming down the pecking order to Shola, and I think Shola should only probably be a 4th choice striker. I realise that you'll obviously think Sibierski is 10 times the player Shola is (he isn't, btw ), but I don't really want Sibierski anywhere near the first team on a regular basis next season.

well by that logic then you either rate Sib or think Sol is shit You'll have to give me your definition of logic, because I don't see any in that conclusion.

Aye, fingers crossed here an'all.

Brilliant?? Like I say, as a stop-gap, he's worked out fantastic. But that's all. He's far from brilliant.

And are you doing the dreaded overtime? What was the craic re Pedro btw? That thing was yesterday wasn't it?

I can now see him finishing his career at NUFC. Something which I never would have thought 6 months ago.

Aye he's scored a few goals like, but the bloke isn't very good, and he shouldn't be getting kept on imo. As a stop-gap he's worked out really well, but making him a permanent member of the squad is something else entirely. Funny to hear the commentator say that Roeder felt that Sibierski and Sol Campbell had been the best two free signings of the summer window in the Prem. Aye, Sol Campbell, Glenn.....

Royale with cheese.

Ahh, I see. Anyone paying that much money for a games console wants their head read tbh.

What's Wii60 sima?

Blue on blue sounds like smurf porn tbh.

Do you still think he's better than Shola?

Aye, alex is right. Take the offer, whatever it is, but if you aren't happy look for something else. Once you get stuck on a certain level salary-wise, it's hard to make significant increases without moving jobs, unless you have some sort of agreement in place with your boss when you accept the offer. Which is something you could do btw - have an up-front conversation making it clear that you aren't ecstatic with the pay but realise that it's your first post-uni graduate job, and would like some idea of how he sees your career and your salary developing. If he's non-commital or doesn't see your problem, then you know you're probably going to have to move after a while.

Move out of Scotland man. I'm all for people trying to better themselves.

Go for it.

OLD BASTARD SCRAP! Loving the old timers trying to out-old-timer one another.

When should we expect the humour?
