Garth Crooks?? That's him. A bit harsh on Burley really, but can't think of a really poor co-commentator. Chris Waddle's pelanties piss me off, as does half of the football media calling the Chelsea full back Jose Botswingwa

And the worst team of all time: TV gantry: [Commentator]: Jacqui Oatley [Colour]: Craig Burley In the Studio: [Presenter]: John Barnes [Pundit #1]: Kenny Dalglish [Pundit #2]: The really hideously annoying black man that nods vigorously and who's name refuses to come to me now!!

In all seriousness having a rubber mask in yer keks can not be good. He should try leaving the mask out of his keks and maybe then he'll stop striking the ball like me gran!!

I got hit in the face by a shoe at Reading Festival which looked a lot like that one.. Perhaps the person who lobbed the shoe at me tried to strike again...

We seem to be playing after everyone else on a weekly basis at the moment. Why did we not play last night for instance?

Preston 2-nil down as well, very good night thus far...

I had one in my university house. I wasn't sure how effective it was until I came back after the summer to find mould all over my bedroom...

Because of the all action, chest thumping, finger pointing brilliance of Steven Taylor.

I hear you but he commands the back line, has an understanding with his defence, is experienced and wants us to go up just as much as anyone. My point was that his spirit and experience is good in the squad. Would you feel as confident with krul in there instead? I like Krul...massive potential but he is still a bit green. He should be our FA Cup keeper this season. 6 clean sheets in 9 games. End of story.

We had 3 senior players out injured before the game, possibly 5 after it. That's already a lot of injuries, but it's seems like very few for NUFC.

Aye, thought Butt was a bit pants and Enrique had a bit of a dodgy one at times but overall a deserved away win I think Butt proved to everyone today that he is past it. Woeful. Enrique was hit and miss...undone his good work with mistakes time and time again. Was proud and impressed that the boys faught and closed down rite till the whistle....is this the best team spirit we have seen for a long time? In fairness to Butt he's short on match practice, but I thought that he and Smithy were very impressive. Concerned about Colo injury, didn't look good.

i can't pick them up. what are they? You fat cockney bastard, get out of our club. To the tune of 'I feel so lonely I want to go home'

Plenty of anti-Ashley chants flying around...

Aye, forgot about that. Ten days off per annum on average isn't it? Fuck that, I struggle on 32. Stop showing off!! Ten days is normal I think. They get a lot of national holidays, but the odd day here and there never seems like much of a break..

He can't possibly be asking for that much, any more than the value of the contract is just not going to happen.

It's the annual leave rates which would stop me going there.

Not really, teachers make around $50k a year Yeah, teachers get paid badly. I know what my job pays in the US and i know what i'm paid in the EU. 90k is not a great place to be when it comes to health insurance, education etc. Its not poverty by any means of course but its not great. The national average in the states is $35,000, 90k doesn't sound too bad...

A police spokesman added: "The homeowner was threatened with a knife and forced to hand over jewellery and the keys to his Range Rover car."

It's very easy to take the piss, but it's getting to the stage where they'll have to hire security, which is a shocking state of affairs. Absolute scum!

He was unlucky that we had Speed, Lee, Dyer and Jenas at the time, oh and a certain defensive midfielder called Hugo Viana..

I'm not sure, it could be. The logo of the Foundation features a football and the pin looks not dissimilar.

Clarence Acuna was a quality player. Vastly under-rated and under-used. He'd walk in to any team we've had for the last five years.

I often wondered what the label pin that SBR wore meant? Anyone know?

Souness was quite a petty man. After Bellamy gave an interview with Sky after the injury faking incident at Arsenal, Souness came to the next press conference and point blank refused to talk about Bellaz to the TV, then walked it to the press and radio room and talked about it openly. All to get back at Sky.

Well seeing as it's apparently fashionable to announce these things this week my missus too is expecting our first. Going for our scan next Friday!!
