  1. And that's why you'd have complaints about Robert as you can't really play exclusively as a winger in a traditional 442. Anyway, don't want to be argumentative as they do play down the flanks/wings so in some ways it's semantics but winger is a different position to side midfielder. Slow match so far.... Stinging shot from Santon.
  2. No, I mean wingers. A 442 does not traditionally have wingers - side midfielders yes, wingers no.
  3. Plus we're playing a 4-3-3 with Ba between HBA and Shola. Cabaye, Jonas and Perch in midfield.
  4. Guess Pardew doesn't think Taylor will last the match, preferring Williamson.
  5. Didn't watch the first half unfortunately but the second has been interesting despite the lack of goals so far. Joe Allen completely anonymous out there, had no idea he was out there until he popped up and committed a couple of fouls 20 minutes into the half. Aggers handball then Fellaini is giving them nightmares.
  6. You've gone into crazy paranoid babble again. Try to keep your mind to one task, one item, one conspiracy at a time.
  7. Wouldn't mind seeing Bigirimana start. Perch is a viable option also in that closing role, values possession from there and even picks the odd decent pass - still surprisingly...
  8. Page before thanks mate.... And who's making money off the bogus satellites?
  9. It's clouds and not rain that cause most of the problems.
  10. In this case why would anyone install a more expensive 'satellite' dish? Or are you saying that there is a different signal source for the dish as opposed to the antenna? If so where is this source coming from?
  11. Accepting what you have described can you explain the different transmission receivers and why one would be adversely affected by weather (clouds, storms etc) and the other not?
  12. To give you more room to expand - why do I get local TV through an antenna on my roof, but some tv through a dish on my roof?
  13. How exactly is it transmitted?
  14. Can you explain how I, in Australia can watch a Newcastle United match virtually simultaneously to someone sat in St James' Park more than 10,000 miles away?
  15. Err....That was in my post? Separating out the red card any people drawing comparison between Tiote's challenge and De Jong's are frankly being ridiculous. Tiote got a red based on his reputation, if another player without the reputation had done the same thing it would have been a justified yellow card and there would have been no further discussion about it. The majority of other players would not be so foolish as to be so careless when they clearly just had to go to ground under a clear foul, so wrapping it up Tiote was fucking stupid and can blame noone but himself. I on the other hand can blame the referee for being influenced by the crowd and the name on the back of the shirt and subsequently making the wrong decision.
  16. De jong lunged in both feet off the ground using vastly excessive force - frankly it's ridiculous to draw any comparisons between the two.
  17. BTW Pardew has never said that he believes it was a red. Which is 100% correct. The referee made the decision that it was a red based on his interpretation of the severity of the challenge and the intent of Tiote. He got it wrong, but there was a foul there anbd it was completely careless and so to argue against the judgement of the referee when it's a matter open to interpretation would be unequivocally fruitless in the context of an appeal to the FA. They would never down grade or overturn it on principle alone. Pardew has accepted that and has rightfully moved on.
  18. The thing with Xisco is I'm still keen to actually see him play a few games to see what if anything there is to his game.
  19. Agree that not a lot of the wages would be covered in the scheme of things. Were the rumours not that he was on 40k? Perhaps a quarter of that. Anyway, suppose it's splitting hairs as he's been an unmitigated disaster in terms of value even if they picked up his entire wage.

  21. And surely some of Xisco's wage would have been convered when he was loaned out.
  22. Williamson has been good somewhat surprisingly. They were shite.
  23. Getting fouled apparently means you can haul someone down by the neck with no punishment.
