OTF

He was unsighted - many of the rest of his calls were horrible though, particularly missing the handball.

Aye, you deserted it well before relegation.

Should issue a public apology to Haidara and stand down for the next three games.

Indeed. There is absolutely no doubt that this would have been handled differently if this was a Joey Barton on Wayne Rooney 'tackle'.

The FA should still advise what the penalty for the tackle should have been, even if they claim they can't act on it. I hope they leave it as is though, cementing their absolute contempt for the well being of their players.

Predictable from the FA which says it all about how utterly fucking pathetic they are.

The FA never fail to excell in incompetence.

What an utter fucking shambles that was from the referee and assistants. Granted we weren't very good, but that challenge was horrible. And their winning 'goal' came from what should have been our corner and then a blatant hand ball! Review panel and a couple of weeks off the the incompetent bastards.

For certain. With our lack of options up front this should be possible. A start of two could be telling.

Yeah I saw this as well. Should have been sprinting everywhere. Shortly after he almost turned it over passing back as well. No I am not saying I think he is no good. Tough match to make a cameo in.

Every team needs one TBH. He's a blocking specialist to boot, and would be dangerous in set pieces if we had someone who could take them.

Bloody excellent result, will provide some confidence to the team as well.

There's a fine line between pleasure and pain with Marveaux it seems. Certainly can be a game changer though as he's willing to try things and is technically very good.

Maybe. 170cm also sounds like the height that someone short says they are so they don't sound as short. Realistically though anyone less than 6 foot is going to be shorter than the average centre back and hence if you're short you might as well be exceptionally so to experience the lower centre of gravity advantage.

16cm is around 6 inches. Taylor is 186 Campbell 170.

170cm they're having a lend saying he's that tall tbh. 16cm shorter than Steven Taylor?

What formation would you go with in the Champions League next season? Or would you stick with your formations are for football manager kids line-up where Marveaux is in the middle, Fergie and the re-bought Lua Lua operate down the flanks, with Cisse knocking in the goals from their immense crosses while Debuchy and Jonas count their lucky stars that they even cracked it for spots on the bench?

Without saying.

QPR - Noone* Reading - Noone Wigan - Noone Aston Villa - Bent, Agbonlahor Southampton - Clyne, Ramirez Sunderland - Johnson, Sessegnon * Jenas - to sit in an oversized fishbowl that gets brought out pre-match and at half-time.

Yes, he does.

Lovely post

Doesn't matter how good his left foot is when he constantly cuts back onto his right. Means that he mostly comes quite narrow allowing defending teams to compress their defense. Seldom does he pass players down the flank side.

Haidara looked lively in his cameo. Good to have a left sided player who is left footed for once. His heavy right footedness limits and makes Santon predictable when getting forward.

Yes! Papiss!

Cabaye, just beautiful.
